[Rhodes22-list] hit delete: it's ss on his box

Herb,

Sorry to burst your bubble, but "The Big O" isn't rabidly anti-anything.  In
fact, WTF is he?  He was an Illinois state senator from a very liberal
district in Chicago who didn't stand a 'ghosts chance in hell' of winning
national office except for perhaps Congressman, but for the fact his
competition blew up and the replacement was Alan Keyes ( I donated money to
Keyes).  Obama has parsed the war issues with a scalpel that even the
Clinton's can't wield with such precision, and now that he's running for
POTUS the MSM is treating him as the "chosen one".   Personally, I think
he's a smart guy.  Ready for POTUS?  Absolutely not!  As Hillary has found
out, attacking the ChosenO garners all kinds of hatred and labels.  I don't
suffer from a guilt complex so I'll continue to fire away.

Obmamessiah, what exactly are your beliefs on anything?  Sorry, oh great
one, for a moment I thought I was a member of the "free" press doing my job!

Brad
