You have got to be kidding! It's not so much that he is a Muslim as that his past associations put him in lockstep with radical Islam.

What part of twenty years under Rev Wright don't you understand? What part of much association with mr. Kalhidi (sp?) don't you understand. How about Mr. nice guy - Ayers? What of his contradicting his own words in his own book? How much of his associations do you need? Doing the poitically expedient thing of dropping out of his church a couple months ago is extremely telling. What don't you understand about the pasts of all his past co-horts?

What of his voluminous phone calls to dear "cuz" in Kenya? The phone calls that show his staunch support for the leader of a radical Islamic movement that burned down a Christian church on top of the Christian congregants.

I suspect Colin Powell has been under enormous pressure to turn out for the black brothers. Before you dare call me a "rascist", I have numerous blacks I would be pleased as punch to vote for. Obama is not a "black" man. He is posing as one to get the minority vote. He is posing as many things that he isn't. It's a well organized campaign. That is the sum total of Obama's positives.

How long have you been reading? How long have you been involved with the real "news" as put out for the past five decades?
