DISQUS

Here is what I hear Obama saying to Hillary's supporters:

For all of you Hillary supporters: come on, sweeties. I know I didn't fight for equal rights, or do any time in the trenches or anything, but I was a heck of a community organizer (whatever that is). I have to admit, it's a good thing Emil Jones, Jr. let me take credit for all of the legislation he authored in Illinois or my thin resume would be nonexistent! LOL!! But, hey, that's what friends are for, at least until the bus comes along. Dean, Pelosi, Moveon.org, and all the rest have pushed for me, too, along with the MSM. (A shout out to my homey, Olbermann, woo, woo!) But, sweeties, the point is this: I stole this election fair and square. Send me your money, vote for me and I might even give your girl Hillary a job writing up some healthcare legislation. Don't expect her to get too close to the White House, though; to be honest, Michelle wants to pick out the drapes herself and she just doesn't like Hillary. Me, I think she's likeable enough, but--well, you know women. So stop crying and get over it. You

Flalady- During the campaign I heard all kinds of uncalled for remarks made against both candidates by supporters of the other candidate. I found them all disturbing. If someone had written a post like yours against Senator Clinton, I presume you would have been outraged. And yet, you feel perfectly justified in writing what you have written against Senator Obama. This is your solution to a prevailing attitude. I can only speak for myself, flalady, I think Obama has run an honorable campaign, he surrounded himself with bright, able, and disciplined young staff. He conducted an exciting campaign, with good solid positions on the issues. He played by the rules until his opponent decided the rules didn't apply. He never asked the black community to vote for him because he is black. He is young, forward looking, and has a vision for America that most of us agree with. I mean no disrespect by this, but I have just reread your post, and in tone and attitude, your post reminds me of the candidate you support, and that tone and attitude is why I rejected your candidate.
