Comments on: Obama's "Aloha" Days In The Spotlight

Hawaiians Who Knew Democratic Hopeful Say He Showed No Signs Of Racial Angst

Just like Barrak Hussein Obamas acomplishments, history, ideas, and policy proposals, THERE IS NOTHING HERE. Is there anything worthwhile in this mans past that would apply to his wanting to be president? Hes like the invisible man. We hear him, but when we look there's nothing there.
We've heard stories about him in school but little else. That's because he's done little else. If the democrats nominate him for either post, we deserve to lose. I will not vote for him
unless he shows me something I don't believe exists, Osama substance. He's like a democratic version of George Bush, He talks a good talk, but do we believe he can really walk? or crawl.
Again, what are his ideas? Does he have any?

Which one of doesn't look back on our early years without thinking we suffered just a bit more angst then others? We're all certain others can't really understand what we were going through and I can promise you that if everyone sat down and wrote a book about their early years, in nearly every case there would be very few if any of our friends from then who would agree with what we wrote. We all see the past through our own prisms.

AP) Rudy Giuliani's law firm has received $100,000 to $200,000 since 2005 to lobby Texas legislators on behalf of Citgo Petroleum Corp., a Houston-based oil company ultimately controlled by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

Have the conservatives turned on one of their own? The NYFD sure hav it in for him too.

Love the AP article on how George is planning to veto a bill that might allow us to see who donates to his Presidential library. Maybe it's the Saudis that bought out Harkin oil in return for something from him.
Nothing like a little hypocracy and possibly graft?

Dan Hale... said Obama's depiction of Hawaii as a place where race really mattered hardly resonates with him."

That's 'cause you're WHITE, Danny.

Racism against Blacks in Hawaii? Gee, let's go there and ask some white folks if that's true.

Can someone tell me how it is that they send folks out to find out if Obama's "racial angst" is real or not and end up interviewing only folks of other ethnic backgrounds (like Ms. "I can't tell if someone is Fijian or black" Furushima) to find out if it's true?

[drsweener]

Your a *** idiot

[jebby_one]

when neo-black obama puts on his black accent it makes him mor believable than when Hillary does.

But it doesn't really matter, because Bill Clinton was already the first Black President so it doesn't matter how black Obama is or isn't.

A Yankee liberal always trumps any other liberals. That's why Hillary is the Senator from New York and not Arkansas.

Obama should try harder at running for Vice President than President. Remember, Black people have a place in the Democrat party, as long as they don't forget their place.

"But Obama is being considered as a candidate because of his "cleanliness and articulate blackness."
Whitey, That's only your perception because you can't conceive of him being anything more...Sad! As for Guilliani, are you more impressed that he married his second cousin, or that he's been married three times?

"If I recall, the REPUBLICANS were the ones who helped push thru the '64 voting rights act, etc."
Infidel, Why would I expect a neo-con to recognize the truth? Keep rewriting history if you will. I was there, in the "solid south" during the 50's and 60's. When LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act, he commented "There goes the south (to the GOP) for two generations." Fact is he was a bit optomistic... I suppose the GOPers pushed through the Voting Rights Act and MLK Holiday bills too?

"Obama is undoubtedly a capable man, but he ain't presidential."
Gee Whitey, As opposed to Bush who is "presidential" yet incapable?

MITYWHITY - totally amazing - absolutely totally amazing - Clinton's were doing real estate deals that MANY real estate attorneys and investors were doing - and you despise them for that -- Bush on the otherhand had brother actively raping S&L's and not a mention there. Sheesh - talk about you losing all objectivity - you must be an avid Hannity Fan!!!

[coffeehead-2009]

What is important to note about the S&L scandal is that it was the largest theft in the history of the world and US tax payers are who was robbed.

The problems occurred in the Savings and Loan industry as they relate to theft because the industry was deregulated under the Reagan/Bush administration and restrictions were eased on the industry so much that abuse and misuse of funds became easy, rampant, and went unchecked.

Additional facts on the Savings and Loan Scandal can be found here:

http://www.inthe80s.com/sandl.shtml

There are several ways in which the Bush family plays into the Savings and Loan scandal, which involves not only many members of the Bush family but also many other politicians that are still in office and still part of the Bush Jr. administration today. Jeb Bush, George Bush Sr., and his son Neil Bush have all been implicated in the Savings and Loan Scandal, which cost American tax payers over $1.4 TRILLION dollars (note that this is about one quarter of our national debt).

Obama is undoubtedly a capable man, but he ain't presidential. He can hook you up with some real estate on the cheap though. He and Hillary should forget this campaign and just start a REIT since they have the uncanny ability to find deals where no deals exist. I still can't get over Hillary's amazing "luck" with cattle futures.

Be my guest! I'll be d-a-m-n-e-d if I will coin a phrase and not release it! To Huskerarmy regarding Barack. What has he done to qualify himself for the most demanding job on planet Earth? For that matter, what has Hillary done? The only candidate I see that has achieved anything on a measurable scale is Guiliani. He's a leader who has been field-tested. But Obama is being considered as a candidate because of his "cleanliness and articulate blackness"? Please! Hillary's only accomplishment is that she married a president. CBS stands for Complete Bull Shiite!

[coffeehead-2009]

CBS,NBC,FOX --
way too easy these days to see the manipulation and ATTEMPTS at "control" of the "masses".


'In March, 1915, the J.P. Morgan interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interest, and their subsidiary organizations, got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the daily press....They found it was only necessary to purchase the control of 25 of the greatest papers.' " 'The world can therefore seize the opportunity [Persian Gulf crisis] to fulfill the long--held promise of a New World Order where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind.'

-- George Herbert Walker Bush"

[huskerarmy]

"Obama said he was a brooding child when he really wasn't. What else is he lying about?!"
Surely he and Clinton conspired to fire the attorney who prosecuted Duke Cunningham!
