Do these people know that our President's mother & the grandparents who helped raise him were all "white people"? Are their minds so full of paranoia & hatred that they forget that then-Senator Obama had to leave the campaign trail to see his WHITE grandmother before she passed away? When she died 2 days before Election Day (AFTER having voted via absentee ballot, thankfully) , Senator Obama wrote of his WHITE grandmother, Madelyn Dunham , that she was "the cornerstone of our family, and a woman of extraordinary accomplishment, strength, and humility." That doesn't sound like a racist to me...or to most people who put more than a few seconds' thought into the subject.
67 percent of Republicans think Obama is a socialist
Just WOW! I think the political pachyderms should change their initials from GOP to GODP (Grand Old DELUSIONAL Party...though, I personally haven't seen anything "Grand" about that party since Teddy Roosevelt). Of course, considering the herd that's running that party now, they probably think that Attila the Hun was a Socialist!
These poll results remind me of a CBS News poll done earlier in the year that 53 percent of Republicans said they believe Sarah Palin is more qualified to be president than President Obama.
Ex-half-termer Governor Sarah Palin who couldn't even make it through one interview with that monster, Katie Couric, without sounding like an illiterate moose-killer, and who said that her foreign policy experience consisted of watching Russian President Putin from her kitchen window, and whose eye twitched so much when she talked that you couldn't even pay attention to the palaver she was regurgitating from McCain's stump speeches? THAT Sarah Palin? Sarah "pitbull-with-lipstick" Palin is more qualified to be President that President Obama?
I think I finally figured out what's wrong here! The Republicans have ventured so far down the rabbit hole that they are living in another dimension where up is down & night is day & genius is ineptitude. They just happen to be living in that dimension at the same time the rest of us are living in the real world.
That's the ONLY thing that explains poll results like this.
Tonight, I say an extra prayer for President Obama and our wonderful country!
