Reminds me of the time that Mike Piazza was rumored to be gay. He vigorously denied it but never offered the caveat "not that there's anything wrong with that".
Sadly, many many Americans still equate being a muslim to being a terrorist or a terrorist sympathizer. We can thank bushco and the raving right for propagating this nonsense.
Great posts all around,except for Dr. Zaius, you douchebag!

Josh said that it takes cajones to make the claim that Obama is the new bush. I disagree. I think it takes a LACK of cajones, as well as a severe lack of grey matter, to make such a statement.
I guess this means that McSame's new advisors are just as dumb as he is.

There IS a flip-flopper in the presidential race this year but it's not Obama, it's McSame:

Very well said. This latest round of nonsense makes all of the sites I visit sound too much like the MSM for comfort. Covering Obama's every move is fine but screaming bloody murder is ridiculous.
No one was more outraged that the congressional dems caved on telecom immunity than me. Yes, I was disappointed that O didn't oppose the cave in but let's get real. He will be a great president but thinking that he can be all things to all of us is pretty stupid and that's how we've been acting lately.

WOW! We certainly are a fickle bunch!
All of a sudden Obama is tacking right and we're jumping off his ship like it's the Titanic!!!Did you really think Obama was perfect? I know I didn't but I also know that he is the best choice to be the next president. His platform is one of inclusion, not alienation, and he realizes that when bush is gone, it won't be time for the left to exact revenge on the right, it will be time to heal and fix the trail of destruction left behind. Alienating anyone but the far right will make this difficult if not impossible to do.

SOS Iceberg, I cannot praise your post enough. You have encapsulated so many important points and have done so in a brilliant manner.

Hey, offensivetoyou, let me spell this out for all to see...you are full of shit!
"crazed, drug-addicted felon". Indeed! From where did you plagiarize this shit?
Having an open discourse is one thing but you are a complete phony!
Mercedes, I am sorry for your loss. Gun violence is a MAJOR problem in this country and simple-minded comments from idiots like "offensivetoyou" do little to fix the problem.

Scalia was against the decision? Really???
Is anyone buying my mock surprise???
Nah, didn't think so. Scalia belongs in Gitmo!I completely echo E.J.'s words. It's just shameful that we went even 1 day with holding prisoners and refusing to give them habeas.

Hey McCain, we're not "(your) friends" so do us all a favour and go reclaim your spot on the balcony of the muppet show.
