wingsofgold: Your rantings perfectly demonstrate the success of the Republican party when it comes to spreading hate and ignorance. Newsflash: Islam does not equal terrorism. Any more than Christianity does (putting aside, for the moment, the medieval Crusades, among other somewhat nonpeaceful moments in Christian history). Obama is a Christian, and has been his entire adult life.

If you can take the way Bush talks, what is so bad about Obama's pausing (go to .... if you think it's stuttering, you know damn well it's not).
The problem is with all the thought and reflection he still can't articulate a thought. He's lost without a teleprompter.

Please, try a stronger point.
One last approach . . . Why do you think the crowd roared at the line? As you state, it's been around for decades; did it just all of the sudden magically get that funny? Again, I had no problem with it as did the crowd. Just think it hilarious that anyone thinks the line wasn't in response to Palin's acceptance speech. . . .

And to get back on topic, at least he said it smoothly. . . it was well rehearsed.

When in doubt bring up the Crusades....how long ago were they as opposed to the current jihad? Hate and ignorance would belong to the democraps with animals like Pelosi, Reid, Cynthia McKenney, Dumbo's nasty wife, et al . Point that finger at yourself, not me.

You're mistaking my LAUGHING at your fear for a rant, sorry bout that chief.

I don't think it was and even if it was, please cry me a river. Did you see anyone call McCain sexist when he said the same thing about Hillary?
Original point: I'm sick and tired about the "stuttering" problem of Obama being pointed out. You don't get 250000 folks waving US flags on GERMAN soil, if you have a problem with stuttering, in the techincal sense of the word.
Does Obama, pause and and think twice in the middle of a sentence yes. Does he stutter, of course not.

I think Bill Maher is right: White people who don't like Obama don't like him because he's smarter than they are. Which, of course, is the REALLY "dumb" response--since any thinking American would want their President to be smarter than them.
Obama um...uh...huh...ah... is um...uh...huh...ah... campaigning um...uh...huh...ah... to um...uh...huh...ah... become um...uh...huh...ah... the um...uh...huh...ah... first um...uh...huh...ah... Affirmative um...uh...huh...ah... Action um...uh...huh...ah... President.

I'm sorry. Did I hear you correctly? Did you just state that "Dumbo's nasty wife" is an animal?

I rest my case.
