  • I agree these are ugly times, but i have to call you out on at least one factual error here. Aside from you calling Obama a Muslim (he's a Christian), you said he took his oath of office with his hand on the Koran. That's just not true. Obama took his oath on a bible. You might be confusing him with Minnesota congressman Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to congress.

  • I too admire Powell very much indeed and agree with you that if he were the VP candidate my decision would be a lot easier. If he were the presidential candidate my doubting would be over completely.

    But I can't sign off without arguing a little bit with you, Mike; it would be unnatural. I don't care very much for the others you mentioned but my feelings are not quite as negative.

    And I won't vote for Obama but it's because I believe he doesn't have the capability to represent us in the world. But I haven't fallen for the vile email campaigns and misleading gossip about him.

  • Ya know Mike, when I first started reading your blogs awhile back I really enjoyed them. But you seem to be slipping and falling for all the propaganda that is out there and that seriously detracts from your credibility. I am no Obama supporter, nor am I a Democrat supporter, but even I know that the majority of the things you railed against him here have long since been proven false or misleading about him. Maybe you better do some homework on some of these things before just assuming them to be true.

  • Fair enough, i suppose, but again, the hand on the koran thing is just not true. You could look it up.

  • Mike:

    What do you think of Palin and McCain?

    Hope you got a lot of info today. Sorry I missed your call but I am glad it worked out. Hope you will call and tell me about it. Being ill has made the last few days interesting, and not for the better. I will make the trip at a later date but soon. Take care.
