Remember What Obama Said About Clinton During the Campaign?
December 01, 2008 11:41 AM
It is hard to remember now but Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton endured a bruising campaign against each other. Remember? Of course, lots was said in the battle for the nomination of their party. At his press conference this morning announcing to the world his national security team, Barack Obama was asked about his jabs at Clinton during the campaign...specifically ones involving her foreign affairs experience. He deflected in a humorous way...a lot is said during the heat of the campaign...
Remember this early-in-the-campaign zinger Obama hurled at his now nominee for Secretary of State:
"It's that experience, that understanding, not just of what world leaders I went and talked to in the ambassador's house, who I had tea with, but understanding the lives of people like my grandmother, who lives in a tiny village in Africa..."

What's going to happen when Obama actually IS President?
Will there be a second to second update?
"Now he's eating lunch. He ordered chicken on wheat. What do you think THAT means?"
Oh, the hours of entertainment to come -
what joy.
I'll still be critical. William and geecee, and Omentum will still be praising Obama.
And we'll all still be typing away.
It's cheap entertainment, anyway.

That is whats wrong with the world today, too much Hatred,jealousy, and Killing. Look at the lives of the Indians they have been through as much as we have in in their lives from genocide to prejudice from the white man, blackman and all others that came to this country. I'm Cherokee Indian and PROUD of it, but as I heard yesterday from that Lady who escaped ALL TERRORISTS NO SOULS.It's not that they don't have a soul but ,that Satan has bought it, just like the Bible says Satan is getting desperate because he knows that his time is short on this Earth. I LOVED Charles Gibsons' show he did in Israel some time ago. I absolutelly love watching the Evening News with Mr. Gibson, to me he the greatest next to Walter Cronkite
