LET US NOT FOCUS ON THE COLOR OF A PERSONS' SKIN; BUT, INSTEAD,
WE WILL FOCUS ON THE CONTENT OF HIS CHARACTER. (Martin Luther King)
Just because you and your spouse are not getting along, doesn't mean SHE becomes the male and HE becomes the female. PLEAZ.............You either work it out, or GET OUT. Now tell me something. Which one of us is so great that after finding fault we imediately set about to change that person, thing or situations. Last time I checked, the first thing you start on for CHANGE is YOURSELF. What a rip-off.
Just because you don't like the way this country is run, doesn't mean you should seek to covet the TOP Spot so that you can pull out your Self-Righteous Weapon, and go about chopping and chistleing at this Great Countries FrameWork. Hey, I never said I didn't like America. So where in the world could this person (O) be getting his information from? I THINK HE HAS BEEN MISLEAD. I love my Country, and that's a fact. Well, as always....THE GRASS ALWAYS LOOKS GREENER FROM THE OTHER SIDE...which adds up to FOOLS GOLD! So, you have one candidate who believes MONEY is the way to the PROMISE LAND. While the other Trusts in the Power of the People. One who gets all kinds of funds from over seas, corners innocent people in the street to intimidate them into voting early. Why not? This way while the TRUTH continues to MARCH in, just maybe this person can PROUDLY PROCLAIM.........GUESS WHAT, too late, I GOT THE VOTES, I WIN. (Sad). With votes from overseas, help from my Guilt-Ridden folks, the World Community, and Fluffed up early registration counts, I GOT IT MADE!" All this, just so you can sit in a seat where you too SHALL BE GREATLY CRITICIZED LIKE ALL THE REST. Really, all this Crying about Racism is a BIG JOKE. Something I'd expect little children to do while playing a game when its obvious they're wrong. Instead of perfecting their play, they throw out accusations and throw temper tantrums. Think about, they are so obnoxious that you throw the Complainers the Ball and Tell him " No big deal, Too bad you didn't take the time to truly LEARN how to get along, learn how to play the game so that the whole team could get something out of this." But, Oh well, after all, YOU DO KNOW MORE THAN EVERYONE ELSE; SO GO PLAY BALL BY YOURSELF. WHAT A MESS! Now you see what constent BELLY-ACHING can lead to. Well by the time everything settles, FREE SPEECH will probably be oblished, while at least I know Igot a lot of things off my mind. :-)

Although Barack Obama has said that he supports civil unions, he is against gay marriage. In an interview with the Chicago Daily Tribune, Obama said, "I'm a Christian. And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition, and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman."Barack Obama did vote against a Federal Marriage Amendment and opposed the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996.
He said he would support civil unions between gay and lesbian couples, as well as letting individual states determine if marriage between gay and lesbian couples should be legalized.
"Giving them a set of basic rights would allow them to experience their relationship and live their lives in a way that doesn't cause discrimination," Obama said. "I think it is the right balance to strike in this society."Sources: Chicago Daily Tribune, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
