Comments on: Enough About Sen. Obama http://urbangrounds.com/2007/08/barack-black-enough/ Sometimes the truth hurts Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:57:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dianne http://urbangrounds.com/2007/08/barack-black-enough/#comment-94930 Dianne Tue, 14 Aug 2007 19:30:50 +0000 http://urbangrounds.com/2007/08/11/barack-black-enough/#comment-94930 The worst thing that could happen to the Democratic Party is Hillary vs Obama and vice versa. I had thought for a year that no Republican could win the Presidency but I'm beginning to change my mind and I'll tell you why. This weekend I saw my 79 year old mother. She has never, and I mean never, voted for a Republican in her life, not even my own cousin who was a state senator in Wisconsin. She cannot stand Hillary Clinton and she doesn't like Obama either. I asked her who she did like, expecting she'd say Edwards. She said Mitt Romney. I nearly fell over. I mean I am still in shock.

Clinton had never held a private sector job. Clinton did live in England for while, but he spent his time there not inhaling grass, not going to class, and protesting against the United States. Oh, and he visited the Soviet Union as a guest of The Party. Bush, on the other, was an Air Force fighter pilot and had a number of private and public sector jobs. Preston, since Hillary disagrees with you on Iraq you must figure that she's lying to sucker in us dumb dittoheads. I agree with you there.

Aside from the fact that he was running against Vice President Gore- not anyone named Clinton- Bill Clinton had held public office since 1977. As for Senator Clinton, if she becomes president I hope that the 30% of the country that thinks she's a bitch will grow up- I'm not going to give a veto power to these crybabies. I'll pick the best candidate regardless of what the dittoheads are going to bleat about. Bush’s experience greater than Clinton’s?

I do hope the Democrats nominate Obama, although I concede that he has less chance of beating Hillary than Phil Leotardo did of beating Tony. If Obama pulls ahead in the polls he'd better be careful at gas stations. The good thing about a President Obama is that almost half the country won't hate him. Fair or unfair, Hillary engenders a lot of out right hatred, probably even more than Bush generates. This country doesn't need another 8 years with a President many of us hate. We need a fresh face, which Obama is and Hillary most assuredly isn't. Fred, lots of people did, but since Bush’s resume was so much stronger than Clinton’s the argument never went far.

How much foreign policy experience did George W. Bush have before he was elected? He had never been off the North American continent! What other experience did he possess? He spent 6 years as governor of a state with a weak chief executive! He has spent a few years running some oil businesses into the ground and was a part-time owner of a baseball team, yet no one questioned whether he had enough experience to be president.

He has not even tried to help his state or the nation being a senator from Illinois. He promised Illinois voters that he did not have higher levels to go to. If he were to be president you would not believe the amount of 9-11's we would have. He should really stop right now and go back to his regular job. Mitch Bender Hello
