This just in……people are questioning Barrack Obama’s decision making skills. Once the rhetoric died down, once the flowery, tele-prompter driven speeches, were over, someone started asking questions about his friends, family, etc. Suddenly his version of the “crazy old uncle” leapt out of the closet in the form of Rev Jeremiah Wright.
This hate spewing, pulpit pounding, bigot, draped in robes, has been seen on most of America’s TVs belching out some remarkable insanity. Two things stood out for me. First, while his opinions were that of a raving old bigot, the reaction he got from the congregation was VERY supportive. Secondly, this clown has been the “spiritual leader” for Senator and Mrs. Obama for 20 years. While they may not have been present for some of the more incendiary remarks, he could not have been surprised. As my wife has said, “you are judged by the company you keep.” It was right around that time she also suggested I not spend so much time with my brothers. Hmmm.
Then there is Senator Clinton. Hell why beat a dead, pant suit wearing horse?
The Florida Democratic brain trust has been wailing about not having their delegates seated after they moved their primary date. Despite being warned 5 full months in advance, they still moved the election and seemed to be shocked that the rule was upheld. Well after quite a bit of whining they were given a chance to correct the problem and STILL could not come up with a plan THEY agreed on. THEIR issue, THEIR plan and still no agreement. Damn.
I had a great time downtown for the Blarney Bash.
Tons of folks and great music. Of course not everyone was there to play. The folks in the service industry work even harder during this type of event.
God bless those with a good grip!
If you’re out and abut Thursday in Spartanburg, why not drop by AT&T Wireless on South Main, just past Hillcrest. Anitra and I will be there from 11am to 1pm. Guitar Hero III and a free lunch. Be there!!
