        Written by his staff, and just signed by him. Nothing special here.

        Want to make it special. Have him show up.

        The first, and in order to not get my statement deleted, I shall add, “this is my most humbe opinion, I shall reiterate in the most humble terms MY OPIONION, Obama might be a direct descendent of Christ and the greatest intellectual on Earth and I wish him the best always and forever, so help me God….but never to the President of the United States or even re-elected as Senator!”

        intelligent public statement issued from the office of Obama…

        No unkind words said here…As a strong Republican I hope Mr. Obama loses in this election…

        BUT I DO Applaud his staff or writing such a king letter as he would not the time to pen such remarks without help from staff.

        I wonder…how long will it take to get this deleted even though there isn’t any thing negative toward the most honorable and soon-to-be “ex-candidate” Obama.

        But, hey, can he play chess? Oh…his staff might have to help.

        I’m timing this…lets see how long it’ll be before it’s deleted because you like Obama….

        nothing hurts Obama’s credibility more than his supporters personally attacking his critics by unsubstantiated claims of racism.

        The old “race card.” When no argument is left…it’s the easiest scapegoat to call someone “racist.” Sorry. My wife is a Black-American and I am white. So, I don’t think I fit into the “racsict column.”

        I just think there no Democrat capable of defending this nation…but, I completely believe you have every right to call me whatever names you wish…it is called “freedom.”

        It’s what Republicans have stood for. Consider the part of every president since Theodore Roosevelt while we were at war:

        1. Woodrow Wilson (Democrat)
        2. Franklin Roosevelt (Democrat)
        3. Harry Truman (Democrat)
        4. Lyndon Johnson (Democrat)…but I’ll add a “3.5” for JFK since he got us first involved in Vietnam…he was a Democrat.
        5. Bill Clinton (Kosovo, Somalia…but he did inherit a bit of this from Bush the first, but he could’ve stopped it)

        Compared to Republican presidents:

        Nixon (Vietnam)
        Bush (first Gulf War)
        Current President Bush.

        I respect Mr. Obama greatly. He is a patriotic American. However, I don’t think he nor any Democrat will win in 2008.

        It will be so funny on election night to see all the Dem’s cry when a Republican wins…again!

        You’re all a bunch of babies. Spamming the board with posts of “will I get deleted? will I get deleted?” You better hope your posts are deleted, because the only thing people are seeing is what a baby you’re being.

        Anonymous whines that people are injecting race where there is none, yet he doesn’t mind injecting politics where there is none. A letter from SENATOR Obama about a chess event taking place in his district: wah wah wah he’s a democrat wah wah wah not fair you’re being political Susan wah wah wah you have no articles about a republican senator and chess wah wah wah.

        Proud To Be An American

        If tomorrow all the things were gone,
        I’d worked for all my life.
        And I had to start again,
        with just my children and my wife.

        I’d thank my lucky stars,
        to be livin here today.
        ‘ Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
        and they can’t take that away.

        And I’m proud to be an American,
        where at least I know I’m free.
        And I wont forget the men who died,
        who gave that right to me.

        And I gladly stand up,
        next to you and defend her still today.
        ‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
        God bless the USA.

        From the lakes of Minnesota,
        to the hills of Tennessee.
        Across the plains of Texas,
        From sea to shining sea.

        From Detroit down to Houston,
        and New York to L.A.
        Well there’s pride in every American heart,
        and its time we stand and say.

        That I’m proud to be an American,
        where at least I know I’m free.
        And I wont forget the men who died,
        who gave that right to me.

        And I gladly stand up,
        next to you and defend her still today.
        ‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
        God bless the USA.

        And I’m proud to be and American,
        where at least I know I’m free.
        And I wont forget the men who died,
        who gave that right to me.

        And I gladly stand up,
        next to you and defend her still today.
        ‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
        God bless the USA.

        Wow!!! Great words! That’s from the Lee Greewood song…right? I suppose most Europeans hate it…but, who cares? We kept them free….

        I don’t know who you are “anon” but, I’d shake your hand and buy you a beer right now!

        Oh…and GO KAMSKY!

        Gotta say something of chess.

        I hear that if Obama loses he has a job waiting for him on the front box of Cream of Wheat.

        Let’s see….he’s a one-term Senator with absolutely NO executive experience. He could always get a high paying job due to the silly Affirmative Action laws in most states (except Michigan….finally one state government has done something logical).

        He will always be upper class.

        His supporters needn’t worry…he’ll always have the finest dinners, finest homes, and live in luxury.

        But, he will never be the President of the United States….and probably never a governor either.

        “Let’s see….he’s a one-term Senator with absolutely NO executive experience.”
        So is H. Clinton? sort of…
        Probably others too if researched.
        Can’t see why the bile…or he has to be extra extraordinary compared to any other candidate?
        “law & order” star has been politician & has some folksy ways, other candidates have some local experience, but…
