I'm not sure
of the context here. Do you mean that if he were white and all other things were the same (like he was the nominee against McCain?) then ''most black people'' would have voted for McCain? Or, do you mean that his ideology is radically different from how ''most black people'' think but his skin color trumps their choice?Or, are you making a kind ...

I like my fellows.
You, however, are stuck with Gatewood, JackDallas, ba and Laurie. I will have more fun, live longer, feel better and enjoy life. Hope & Change, baby, it's in the air! You will have burning ears, bloody eyes and a hangover without any of the fun of drinking. Then you'll wake up and all the ice will have melted. So sad. Hugs hon. Do ...

Sour Grapes
It's becoming ''old news'' the constant bashing of politicians and elected officials to generate conversation and controversy. In a year i'll be more objective to what the naysayers have to say but for now it does'nt carry much weight.

Enough Already!
Please people stop your whining about every little detail of the current presidents agenda and accolades! Never before in history have there been so much scrutiny of a president in such a short period of time! He's been scrutinized more in 9 months than others have been in two terms. Give him and his decisions time before casting judgement. Now ...

I'm not trying to spin it or defend it. I like it. Period. I was responding to you, here, now. You are the one who used the word ''gift'' ... I didn't make that up. I know the Rightwingnut brigade is having a field day with it -which is why I called your bluff on the ''he should decline it'' baloney. Gotta run. Been fun.

Re: More of a Gift, Then
Isn't it a gift under any circumstance? Literature? Chemistry? Whatever? The point of scientific research, surely, is not to gain the Nobel prize but rather to gain understanding of the underlying science? And the Nobel is a gift along the way? You're clearly upset about this, dear. Go watch some I Love Lucy reruns or something. Give it a ...

Re: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize
The committee didn't award it as a lifetime achievement ... they awarded it to him for what he represents on the world stage. ''Obama got the prize not for doing, but for being. Not for making peace, but for exemplifying something new on the world stage--the politics of dignity. The Nobel Committee has simply made explicit what many have ...
