Posted: 6/27/2008 8:47:52 PM | | Funny how so many on here who claim fear of racism or discrimination so readily espouse the negative stereotypes of the South and Southerners...no one is opposed to Immigration,its the Illegal immigration that is problematic..nice try though, love how you Liberals try to blend those two together... | |

Posted: 7/2/2008 2:24:13 PM | [^^^ I think I'd have better chances talking to them than you would, considering for starters I at least speak their language. They might hit you so hard you wouldn't even be able to get the cowboy hat back on. It's understandable a "suth'n boy" would be so afraid of these people. But in truth, if you're not in a gang, and / or not some drug runner who is doing business with them, you have a very very low likelihood of being bothered by them, or even encountering them. If I do however encounter them and my life is not "worth a plugged nickel" (whatever that is exactly) to them, and so forth, and they kill me, then I would hope it would simply be a legal issue -- as far as homicide. A criminal issue. Not an immigration issue which should in any way reflect back negatively upon the millions of other (non-MS13 affiliated) decent hardworking central American immigrants who happened to make it here succesfully (albeit without all the proper paperwork) from their state of utmost poverty. ]
I take it you have never heard of any innocent people ro worst yet kids getting hit during a driveby? As far as the comments about southerners, real southerners live in the country which gangbangers are completely out of their elements. And those southerners are also very well armed because we believe in protecting our own. I think you need to quit smoking whatever it is your smoking because gangs don't just go after other gans and drug dealers. Your obviously quite dilusional. | |

Their are many things that bring his thinking into question? One of the most interesting things I have heard from him is...Words are important and we should be judged on our words?
well here are a few of his words taken from his own hand in his own books he wrote!
{quote] From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.' does this mean he will only represent blacks?
From Dreams of My Father : 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.' according to his own words he doesn't like whites...this is scary!
From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.' Racist and bigoted
From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.' Why would anyone vote for this mentality?
From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.' I thought JFK was his hero?
And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!
From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.' This is ABSOLUTELY FRIGHTENING...and Liberals/ Democrats want this man in the White House?????????????
Now you know why......Radical Islam is rooting for Obama
God help us all if this man is elected | |

**SMEAR EMAIL
From Dreams From My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mothers race.'
FACT
Nothing close to this quote appears in Dreams from My Father
**SMEAR EMAIL
'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
FACT
FULL QUOTE From Dreams From My Father:
"He offered to start me off at ten thousand dollars the first year, with a two-thousand-dollar travel allowance to buy a car; the salary would go up if things worked out. After he was gone, I took the long way home, along the East River promenade, and tried to figure out what to make of the man. He was smart, I decided. He seemed committed to his work. Still, there was something about him that made me wary. A little too sure of himself, maybe. And white--he'd said himself that that was a problem." [Page 142]

'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'
FACT
FULL QUOTE From Dreams From My Father:
"All my life, I had carried a single image of my father, one that I had sometimes rebelled against but had never questioned, one that I had later tried to take as my own. The brilliant scholar, the generous friend, the upstanding leader--my father had been all those things. All those things and more, because except for that one brief visit in Hawaii, he had never been present to foil the image, because I hadn't seen what perhaps most men see at some point in their lives: their father's body shrinking, their father's best hopes dashed, their father's face lined with grief and regret.
"Yes, I'd seen weakness in other men--Gramps and his disappointments, Lolo and his compromise. But these men had become object lessons for me, men I might love but never emulate, white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela. And if later I saw that the black men I knew--Frank or Ray or Will or Rafiq--fell short of such lofty standards; if I had learned to respect these men for the struggles they went through, recognizing them as my own--my father's voice had nevertheless remained untainted, inspiring, rebuking, granting or withholding approval. You do not work hard enough, Barry. You must help in your people's struggle. Wake up, black man!
"Now, as I sat in the glow of a single light bulb, rocking slightly on a hard-backed chair, that image had suddenly vanished. Replaced by...what? A bitter drunk? An abusive husband? A defeated, lonely bureaucrat? To think that all my life I had been wrestling with nothing more than a ghost!" [Page 220]

'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
FACT
FULL QUOTE From Audacity of Hope:
"Whenever I appear before immigrant audiences, I can count on some good-natured ribbing from my staff after my speech; according to them, my remarks always follow a three-part structure: "I am your friend," "[Fill in the home country] has been a cradle of civilization," and "You embody the American dream." They're right, my message is simple, for what I've come to understand is that my mere presence before these newly minted Americans serves notice that they matter, that they are voters critical to my success and full-fledged citizens deserving of respect.
"Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." [Page 260-261]
This smear campaign is one of the oldest in the books Poco....you make interesting choices.

Posted: 7/13/2008 6:39:49 PM | | Yup Stefano, while we are hugging trees and screaming about coral reefs, the Chinese are drilling off of Cuba as we speak. Why is that? Because they want the oil and don't care about the environment. At least if we were doing the drilling and trying to be self-supportive when it comes to energy, we would be more cautious when it comes to the environment. However we would rather get our oil from overseas and then complain about fuel prices and what the price of food costs due to the price of fuel. Conservation is the key to being selfsufficient when it comes to energy. Using both our own oil that we drill and alternative sources from Nuclear to wind and sun power. As far as your redwood deck, how about building a composite deck made from recycled material and replant where trees have been harvested? Conservation is the key. It's a great thing to try to save the world and very noble, but when we sit back and and want to rely on the rest of the world for our energy and do nothing when the rest of the world is depleting every natural resource they can get their hands on, why is it such a crime to utilize our own natural resources but be an example for the rest of the world and show how we can be self reliant on our own energy needs yet not impact the environment? | |
