See...and that's where you go wrong...many people know better, stop watching TV and thinking that the media is feeding the masses that rubbish and the masses believe it. Talk to some people that have common sense and we will tell you that altho WE ARE ECSTATIC about Obama being president, he is HUMAN like everyone else and we don't expect him to fix everything in the next 4 years BUT we are HOPING and praying he is not mess up like Bush was.

i don't plan on closing my eyes and say...Oh it's Barack and he can get away with it...much of the opposite to that, he probably will be scrutinized more than any president ever was...but NOBODY expects him to be perfect.

Yet more unfortunate statistics in the Great Hope Floats Tide Lifting Problem Disaster of 2009. Sigh . . . how could a kind decent God allow this sort of thing to happen?
God has a great sense of humor. :)

To me, his posts give me the idea that he's racist. He has his opinions about me based on my posts, and I'll continue to have mine about him based on his posts.

So what if I'm a white person typing to a white person. There's still a difference. He's a redneck and I'm not. He probably watches NASCAR.:rolleyes:


Actually, I'm not a redneck at all. I don't really watch NASCAR but I will gladly go to a race every once in a while. They are pretty fun. You don't know me from Adam so let's not start the stereotyping game.

Please though. Enlighten me on how I am a racist. You just opened that bag so why don't you back yourself up.

I believe I have already stated my feelings pertaining to the color of his skin and what I think about the fact that he is the first to represent his race in the White House.

I never noticed which means that, whatever it was, it wasn't "personal."

Hello, though. :)

Where does all the money that the vendors make off of Obama apparel and thongs (as in panties) go?

And, this is a serious question, why did they refer to him as Barack H. Obama while being sworn in? Why leave out the middle name?

And you don't know me from Adam, you jerk! So what gives you the idea that I'm on a high horse?

If it makes everyone happy I will gladly stop calling our new President names.....especially ones that are in poor taste.

Had no idea you were ole DST. Good to hear.

If that's what you think, keep it there. Your redneck rant was dumb.

Maybe he meant you're high and riding a horse.

I had it in my signature when I first re-registered and it was discussed in threads. You all aren't observant. :p

Just be happy I stopped reading "TexasWASP" like I did when you first re-registered. :)

Same reason why when they introduced Bush Sr/Jr today they did the same.

Not towards a common cause unless security required all vendors be registered and licensed. :)

I don't know but I believe he said his middle name during the swearing in.
