   Uhhh…what exactly is “historic”, MO?
   The “One” is not the first black American to run for president…so that’s not new ground…

   Perhaps she’s referring to the Democratic backroom boys’ decision to take the “Milli Vanilli” approach to finding a viable presidential nominee: sourcing a lip synching puppet with no real identifiable talent or verifiable track record of time in the trenches spent polishing their craft, but marketing, packaging, branding and hyping him in a fashion deemed “saleable”. Ironically, both MV and BO were/are both marketed principally to the “young” (aka “gullible”):

   “Milli Vanilli were a precursor of the 1990s boy bands. They were assembled by German producer Frank Farian, who wanted a saccharine blend of funk, rap and soul to appeal to a mass teen audience. ”

   Barack Obama — the Milli Vanilli politican — that’s “historic” ?
   Snort.

   I guess she forgot she ain’t in Chicago anymore. Maybe South Side Chicago Democrats get paid to listen and agree with her, but I sure don’t.

   If my brother-in-law was living in a hut, I would be doing something to help him. Guess she expects the Kenya dole to take care of him.

   As far as Michelle Obama and the Democrat Convention goes, I am looking forward to the insanity. Although I don’t think I will challenge my stomach by watching the hoard of Obama speakers and parade of dejected Americans Obama will bring on stage.

   Can you image Michelle Obama’s Speach followed by a laid off Auto worker who has no health care and has lost his house because of his inability to pay his mortgage due to the price of gas and his lack of education….etc etc.

   Then the flash of thousands of Obama teenagers screaming, “Obama” “Obama” “Obama” like a frenzied crowd in Germany.

   That is the scene the MSM will show. The truth will be revealed through the blogs.

   Barack should a “B” (the President) sticker on his bumper. “B” for Biden, because Obama is nothing but a figurehead now..

   Biden was his life preserver, plain & simple.. The problem of course, is who will save biden from his own mouth?

   Not if a whole $12 would double his income for the year you wouldn’t – who’s gonna pay for the piano and dance lessons and Princeton bills? No, that $12 will stay right at home thank you.

   To my knowledge he has never even worked at a real job in his life. How then is he the voice of the common man?
   I was wondering about that myself. Has Barack Obama ever held a regular job? As a teenager has he ever labored as a cashier? Or filed invoices? Or served food in a restaurant? What kind of job (if any) did he hold while he attended Harvard?

   What is his entire work history?

   I grew up in very modest surroundings. My parents worked very hard to provide for us. We raised large gardens with the prerequisite canning, had a few hogs for butchering and to sell and a milk cow from which we had fresh milk and raised a freezer beef each fall. I was given the necessities and told if I wanted more, that I would have to earn it. I’ve shoveled $*** & shell-corn, dug fence post holes, threw hay, bush-hogged fields, scraped & painted houses and mowed more lawns than I care to remember (with a push mower and a pair of dull hand clippers). I was taught to learn a trade or to get a degree. I ended up doing both. Welfare or food stamps were not in our vocabulary.
   My parents both started taking classes to finish their GEDs while I was in high school. They both went on to take college courses and eventually worked their way up to nice paying jobs and retired moderately comfortable through cautious investments. They never received one free red cent from anyone, including the government. In fact they loaned others in the family money on several occasions when hard times hit. No interest was charged and some never paid it back. I know a little about growing up and earning something for your self. I do not think that Barack or Michelle O. have a damn thing in common with me.

    I tried to watch the video to a conference of “Women for Obama” but couldn’t even get past her first 6 words:

    Michelle Obama said:
    “We all have to be united”

    Really turns me off. She’s very bossy!

    Well, MO could put her econ. stimulus check toward piano and dance lessons rather than buying herself that $600 pair of earrings, doncha know?

    Then mayhap she could afford that 12 bucks?

    I dunno, I think they cut her back to $125,000 while she runs for PresidentFirst Lady instead of the $300,000+ salary she got right before/after hubby snared the $1 million entitlement for the hospital. That $12 to help the brother in the hut is “in the mail”…

    Hey AlohaGuy #100;
    Hate to tell you this, but its been my experience living in Memphis, working with New Orleans Katrina evacuees that most of black America hasn’t gotten over the victim mentality.

    I see it everyday in the newspapers, and it comes out regularly from my U of M profs that blacks are always victims and to deny that is to deny that white people are people of privledge and that the whole arguement of reverse racism (and etc) is just mean white people conspiring to keep blacks down. Sadly my profs won’t acknowledge the accomplishments of Condilessa Rice, Colin Powell, and Clarence Thomas since they have sold themselves out.

    The funny thing is that the next time I hear that “blacks are victims” I am just going to ask-In the last 30 years name one time you were denied the right to vote, go to school or faced attack dogs and fire hoses? It hasn’t happened in my lifetime since 1978.
