The Good News According to Barack

Rick Warren has Hope. Good luck, Mean Martin. Pride and politics. Plus more.

(Page 5 of 12)

These facts -- past as prologue and the radical leftist agenda of Obama -- are compounded by the inconvenient fact of alternative media voices today. McGovern was aided and abetted by a monolithic press. Obama doesn't have that, to put it mildly. I think people are falling into the trap of believing that those who make the most noise have the greatest heft. This is almost always false, and it is certainly false in this case.

I answered by saying that my friend had it half right: McCain was still the Republican Candidate but that BHO was running unopposed.

writer McCain (relative?) uses hundreds of words to end with the line..."But wouldn't it be fun?" He wants us to have fun this November while we pull the lever voting.r canada goosethe ills of the major cities in the lammunity have been poorly served by decades of black leadership. They continue to reelect the very people whose policies keep them in poverty. No debate presence is going to change that. The MSM.
