Easy
bro... I don't know what gave you that idea. I understand you civil
engineers are an imaginative bunch, but if you've been paying any
attention to obama's message, you will know that he has been telling
his supporters that "we are the ones we've been waiting for". Obama
supporters are under no illusion that he is going to solve our
problems....in fact we knew what he is asking of us...work hard, play
by the rules and the sky is the limit. Is that hope? You betcha. And if
you've been paying attention you have seen what the audacity of hope is
all about. It conquered what the punditry called the Clinton machine
and come November we are going to beat that fake maverick...John
McBush. You better get with the program.

Don't be so cheeky. Its "Our Lady of forged Steel". We do not
desire a
bargain from Barack or his obama-heads. We demand respect and consideration
commensurate with our value in votes. We will encourage our supporters to stand
with all Democrats and support Barack, to wrest the white house from
Republicans.

it.]
Moribolong
Don't get so excited as to put your silver foot in your mouth. I don't
think
Barack understands it to be his democratic party nor would he wish it were.
[Withregards to Suntou's assertion that Barack's speech at AIPAC was a
disaster...well what can I say? Except to say that I disagree with his
characterization. Israeli-Palestinian issues is a landmine in American
politics. I abhor organizations like AIPAC, but the practicalities of
American politics made it virtually suicidal to pick a fight with them
before you even made it to the white house. He will be in charge of the
bully pulpit come January and I am not sure if he can change the dynamics of
the
Israeli - Palestinian issue with a magic wand. It is going to take some tough
concessions on both sides.] Moribolong. _http://gambian.blogspot.com_
(http://gambian.blogspot.com)
I, on the other hand appreciate AIPAC, or the Arab American lobby in
America. I understand they have a valuable part to play in any democracy. And
unlike
you, I think if anyone stands a good chance of yielding peace and respite
from the cycle of violence in Israel and Palestine, It is Barack. Where Barack
cannot get it done, there is less opprtunity for McCain or Hillary. Think of
it this way; Clinton and McCain have more of an opportunity for peace in
Northern Ireland than Barack ever could. So Barack does not have a magic wand
but
he has a better opportunity than McCain to yield a Negotiated Peace, a
contiguous Palestine alongside a secure Israel with defendable borders.
One other thing I meant to share in my concession speech to you before you
and JDAM interrupted me was this:
I had been disappointed and upset with Barack Obama when he did not show
respect and appreciation for what President Bill Clinton achieved for America.
And of course I let him know. I appreciate Barack, now that he is not in
competition with Our Lady of Forged Steel, and in his speech in Minneapolis,
when
he showed due respect and regard for William Jefferson Clinton. I therefore
excuse his earlier sleight of Bill Clinton because it was more strategic
posturing than he meant. Indeed if Barack were to acknowledge Bill's value
when he
made the comment about Reagan and Kennedy, it would have tantamount to
handing Our Lady of Forged Steel the nomination on a silver platter. I can
excuse
it because Barack did not deride Bill, he only failed to appreciate him.
Anyway, I got other ideas for you Obama-heads. Just don't get too excited
and lose perspective of Obama. You fuck around, you might create a new
generation of Lazy, jobless, Obama-heads waiting for a hand out from the white
house.
So easy. We hear you. We will let you celebrate victory come november, but
someone has to work in America. Punditry is not an economic activity that can
put food on America's tables. I know you got a job, but tell the rest to
get
a job. The celebration will be sweeter and more bountiful.
Go away. Masoud. MQJGDT. Darbo. Al Mutawakkil.

JDAM,
I was just going to give my concession speech to Moribolong but you just
broadsided me. I'll hold off for a moment until I understand my
Suntou's angst.
I'm thinking along the same lines you are, and I think Suntou's
reaction is a
result of what he did not appreciate in Obama month's ago. I think like
Suntou, many more are in for a rude awakening. I, on the other hand,
understood
these dynamics moons ago and I appreciated Obama for it. So Obama has not
changed his positions nor posture. Suntou was just beginning to understand
Obama.
I hope I can explain it better for Suntou to appreciate Obama even though
Suntou seemed to be shocked. It's all good Suntou.
Haruna.

Obama's journey has great symbolic significance, but the character of the
United States is not amenable to your expectations. Not even if Obama
served
two terms, and even where your Haruna is his Vice President. He must of

what on earth was obama thinking? before he even start he is bending the
diplomatic rules. no wonder some where suspicious of him. the arrogance of
israle is out for every one to see yet obama who was talking like an angel
turn
around like a poppy. but heeey, the sponsors want their dollar's worth.
what
a mess. obama is supported by minorities of every sort but today after his
disaster speech, people must weigh their options, do they want the same old
kind of american leaders? who will give a blind eye to their allies crimes.
i
am shell shocked. but who am i to question the eloquent african american?
obama
has pass his first test.
