This is exactly what I'm talking about. A rumor of a spouse that MIGHT have said something, sometime, somewhere, is NOW parcelled on to a candidate. I'm more interested in what he thinks the minimum wage salary should be. Hey, a thought, what about issues?

Someone mentioned that he has every right to favor the "black" side of his heritage over the white side, and quite frankly, I think that is ridiculous. His "white" family raised him. And he grew up in areas that did not have a "black community" with which he could have gained some sense of his "history," at least while he lived on Oahu, because I was raised there myself, around the same time frame, and there is no thriving "black community" he could have been associated with. Definitely not in the area he was from. And Punahou school? Mostly rich white kids, (or "hapa" which means "half" white kids.)

I don't see it as a 'small issue'. I see it as the beginning of his reveal. I understand, and have since kindergarten, why we say the pledge of allegiance. It is an oath of loyalty to the flag, and the nation it represents.

LOL. Those photos with the light behind him making him look divine are funny as hell. If I had seen one of them in a magazine or something, I would not have noticed it. But seeing them together, plus the one of his wife, it really does look like he is being sold as a saviour by the press.

Wutone, where are you finding these pics? Is the media really enhancing them like this?
the Obama's are deceptively using the black community for political goals.

I say that ALL politicians be exposed. Not just the silly racist comment.

When individuals of a racial group get together it is common practice for them to refer to other races in the vernacular. It does not mean they are racist.
Actually, he admitted to being a drug addict. He said he 'struggled' with coc aine. Struggle = addiction. He is a former drug addict.
After all Obama has admitted to past drug use. Can he now be described as a drug addict?
Have you ever used the N-word in the presence of your friends?

"Why have the Republicans been so easy on Obama?" If they had a big gun like that set aside, that would explain the strategy...

I think it is dispicable that people circulate rumor threads like this.
Where is your morality? Where are your values?
Are you so pure that you never did anything in your life which could be equated to the act in your rumor?
Well actually yes, you have. You spread this rumor.
Are you so afraid of someone's skin color that you resort to the abandonment of any social or moral values?
The Obama family has certainly shown far more moral rectitude than you have done here.
Why in the world would anyone listen to what you have to say. You discredit yourself.

If Cindy McCain said something racist or homophobic, etc. you think the Dems would ignore it?

Originally posted by FlyersFanWell actually NO I HAVE NOT. I'm not spreading a rumor. To do so would be to say it's the truth. I said that this is a RUMOR and we are discussing it at a discussion site...
