Barack Obama is black?

I had no idea!

Actually, that's a lie. I did know that -- and I also know that as a conservative Republican, the color of Obama's skin matters not one whit as to whether or not I'd vote for or against him.

Democrats, on the other hand, are apparently a bunch of bigots because Obama didn't win New Hampshire.

Many theories have been advanced in the media since Hillary Clinton’s stunning upset over Barack Obama. One of them has been much contested: that white voters told pollsters they would vote for Obama but couldn’t quite pull the trigger for the African-American candidate when the time came to cast their ballots. This allegedly counted for more than any sort of “late female surge” for Clinton.

Maybe when Bill Clinton referred to the “fairy tale” surrounding Obama he meant the fable that massive numbers of whites would actually vote for Obama when they had plausible alternatives.

Why in New Hampshire and not in Iowa? The Iowa caucuses were quite public, this theory goes, while voters had a curtain to hide behind in New Hampshire.

An interesting new detail has now emerged seemingly bolstering that theory: not just advance polls, but some exit surveys apparently show that even coming out of the polls, voters in New Hampshire gave Obama about a 5% bulge -- if they were being honest. Where did all those votes go? Maybe he never really had them to start with.

Oh, I love this. Democrats are racists! After all these decades of accusing Republicans generally, and conservatives specifically, of harboring racist thoughts and feelings, it turns out that it was all a case of projection.

  4. being military--i've seen worse during the National Anthem, and many other things that are sacred in the eyes of Public America, but does that make it unAmerican...or just unEthical?

  5. Hi All. National Anthem??? Obama was born to a Muslim father and is conveniently not using his full name: Barack Hussain Obama. Why is hiding it? Do we want to have a terrorist sympathizer as our president? Who also admits to excessive use of alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine during his teenage years? This man should never be allowed to be a president or he will lead this country to a complete and fast destruction.

  6. Ok...So wut Obama hasn been cought with drugs in his teen years....who has'nt. Obama hides his middle name because he does'nt want to br proscuted for having a muslim name with all thats going on in the war in all....i dont blame him, i would too.....He is a good man who is gonna make everyones pay equal(so to speak)....

    VOTE
    FOR
    BARACK OBAMA!!!!!
