OBAMA, don't look at my record, look ahead .

Just got an email from the Obama folks, Focus On The Next 4 Years, Not The Last Ones

That certainly got me to thinking, how is that possible. Made me think of my old Oakwood High School class song, "Guide your future by your past.........."

Let's look at the positives he has done. .................. OK, keep looking. OK. He has "lowered the bar" on ALL aspects of the Presidency, perhaps that is what he meant. He was not qualified four years ago, now he has a little experience and is qualified. He has abused possibly every "perk" that exists for being president, as well as his wife.

He is now in the same "atmosphere" with rock singers, professional athletes and  movie stars, i.e. private jet, mansion, automobiles ... and, the appearance (if nothing more than in his own mind) of being adored. He is surrounded by "YES" men, speech writers, teleprompters, "wannabe's" and money. And, and, just maybe, he can come up with his birth certificate if we give him another four years.

I think what he meant was, if we all intently look ahead, we will not look at the past, he didn't say "let my  record speak for itself." I wonder what it would sound like, if it spoke?

Who is Who????????????????/

WHY THE BIG CHANGE ................ ??????????????????????????

I am not one now, or never have been, one to use the N word. I have had good friends, Negros, or African American, or however you prefer to refer to them, I have always just thought of them as Americans and nothing more. I have even gotten to the point where I don't single them out. I try not to see their difference.

Remember too, I went to college in South Carolina in the 50's, got my first demerits for calling a black lady, "Mam." Worked in Reno during the 50's and early 60's when "blacks" were not allowed in the clubs. They had their own.

I had some Jewish friends who called certain Jewish people, "Kikes," not sure of the spelling, may be the first time I have ever used that term.

I guess we have White Trash, Honkies, Spics, Briarhoppers and some others. We have a concept of how some Jewish people act. When they act like how we perceived a "bad" one acts, they are Kikes. We call them that, Jewish people call them that. I remember years ago talking with some Jewish family friends, about some other Jewish people and they referred to them as Kikes. The first I had heard that term used, and it was used by a Jewish man.

I think the first time I heard the N word used, was by a black man, referring to another black man that he did not approve of how he acted, He was a N to him.

I think Michele Obama, her recent trip to Spain and the way she acted since being the first lady (No caps and no quotes) qualifies her as a N. I think her husband the president (No caps) has also on occasions acted like a N.

I have no problem with a black man, or a negro or an African American being President. I would prefer that he was at least a citizen of this country. I personally don't think that Obama is, further proof, our new Supreme Court Justice who will back him up, another travesty, just one of many.

Bottom line, the presidents wife is acting line a N. Sorry to use that word, but even sorrier that she is acting that way. I wonder what the world thinks of us.

Chicago welcomes one of their own ........

The folks that took these were in Chicago for a trade show and were leaving town just as Barack Obama was arriving and got into a terrible traffic jam.

I haven't seen this on the nightly news on any of the networks.

Right in Obama's back yard!! I'm more proud of the folks in the windy city, than I thought was ever possible! By the way, I didn't see the ABC , CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC covering this - did you? Wonder why...
