I am sorry to always be negative but I am just amazed how easy is to get people completely brainwashed. Rounding up and deporting all Colombians (or Russians) is also “change we can believe in”. Not everything that’s change is always so great.Not to say his opponent is any better but Obama seems to have an army of follower fanatics and that’s never a good sign. He probably won’t win though but will come pretty close.
I’m pretty negative about politics, but I’ll be supporting him, too. Yeah!! (Love the congrats to the missus, that’s cute!)
Meesha, I actually understand you. But I have to admit I’m not very familiar with Obama’s political program when it comes to immigration (illegal). I guess I have to inform myself better.
That’s the point:nobody knows anything about his policy on anything. He got the nomination by repeating general meaninggless statements over and over.
Meesha, why you are so against this man is beyond me, and that statement you made really seems straight out of somebody else’s mouth… listening to political talk radio will get you deported :)

[...] I don’t really like to write political posts they are tedious and not funny. So as briefly as I can I will try to reflect why I don’t care for Obama and all the hoop-la about the change surrounding his candidacy. I’d like to preface that by saying that in my book Obama gets zero points for being black just like McCain gets no points for being a war hero and a POW. I will subtract few points from Obama for being inexperienced and from McCain for being too old and very likely one-term president. Now that race, military service and experience are out of the way, I’ll try to address Obama’s stance on some issues copied from CNN by a local Obama supporter. [...]
