Actually, I think that today’s Obama would probably throw a fit. But 8 years from now Obama would react the same way.
It couldn’t have happened thataway with Obama because that guy wouldn’t have been sitting there.
Obama’s friends would have sold that seat to the highest bidder.
Obama just isn’t appreciated enough.
Why should he be?
Because he’s your president/commander-in-chief…like it or not.[/quote]
What has that got to do with anything? Bush was president and CINC of the US and had/have no love for him. Mindless support for someone in power for the sole fact that he is in power is a frightening thing.

Yes I do think it’s cool to see a Black man in the White House, but I don’t see how that makes me racist.
I see him as someone who’s worked very hard to get where he is, but I can’t understand why people can not accept his victory.

Of course you don’t see why people can not accept his victory, you only wanted him to win because he is black. Let me ask you, what has Obama done for this country so far (besides being the first black president)? I can go on all day about the many ways that Mckain has served this country. You don’t see it that way though, you think that everybody who voted for Mckain or a republican is a racist.
Wait, being in the US senate doesn’t count as doing something for your country?
I was/am in the military and I don’t think like that.

He was in the senate for 2 years, and a town organizer before that. I guess that counts for something. I had a problem with LR because he was saying our country is full of racists , yeah there is some racism, but it goes in all directions and the majority of the nation does not feel that way.

I actually said that there were undertones of racism in the begining of this thread towards Obama.
I don’t know where you got the idea that I said it was the whole of the US. If it was the whole of the US, who the hell voted for Obama? The Aliens?
And no that does not mean that I think that republicans are racist. Before you start speaking for me again.

London Runner said that there were racist undertones in the criticism of Obama in this thread. LR was the first to bring up race. I’m still waiting for the posts which he decided were racist.
Of course racism exists, but not liking Obama doesn’t make someone a racist.
Just like having laser beam eyes doesn’t make someone a secret Muslim. Although I sort of doubt that.
Get to the fuckin point is Cyclops Muslim or not?[/quote]
Obviously we can’t tell you. One only has eye-beams if they are a SECRET Muslim. Announcing that you are a Muslim removes the eye-beam power, duh!

With laser beams from his eyes…all secret Muslims have laser-beam eyes.
Superman is a secret Muslim?!?
Say it ain’t so!
Your logic fails. He didn’t say all those with laser-beam eyes are Muslims, he said all secret Muslims have laser-beam eyes. Thus leaving the possibility open that there can be others with laser-beam eyes that are not secret Muslims.
Thanks for playing.[/quote]
This is an excellent point. One never really knows if those with laser-beam eyes are truly secret Muslims or not…

Oh so you didn’t know either? It was news to me as well.
Apparently, as soon as Obama takes office, the US will be a communist state. I suppose Britain will be next to follow in the domino effect, possibly Canada.

Dumbass,
You must have been educated in the public school system. It is no wonder you appear so ignorant.
Britain and Canada are already communist (socialist) countries. The U.S. has made great strides in that direction since FDR and Bush has made the final fold. Oboma is just the latest in a long line of such traitors.

Careful guys, I think mmllcc has a secret eye-beam power… We all know what this means!

Yeah, throwing it back would have probably been the coolest think he could have done. Especially if the other guy couldn’t duck quick enough. It kinda pisses me off that his shoe his the flag behind bush though.
I’m kinda surprised that no one mentioned that it was a journalist. Aren’t they supposed to be bipartisan? I’m sure that guy wrote some great articles. He just did what almost every journalist in the US dreams of doing.
I would have like to see Lil’ Bush (as I like to call him by his hip hop name) start walking towards the show weilder bow up to him, and grab him by the lapels, “You got a problem motherfucker?”
Then push him towards the exit and kicking him ion the arse as he leaves.
That would have been nice!
Really, close your eyes and picture this moment…
On a slightly more serious note, Lil Bush did show some reflects kin to a cat and was smirking the whole time. You could tell he was enjoying it.

At the very least, he could have taken off his own shoes and thrown them.
