No apology from Obama, just a lecture

Saturday, September 6, 2008 11:34 PM EDT

Rewind to my thoughts on B.H. Obama from some where around April.
Why is it that every time he says something ignorant, racist, prejudiced or just otherwise offensive, instead of apologizing and making amends, he feels the urge to treat us to a lecture on how provincial and bourgeois we were for interpreting his foolish statement as anything less than the urbane, culturally sensitive remark he intended it to be?

B. Hussein Obama has, by his own recognition, precious little experience His campaign amounts to little more than one long procession of his vaunted personal attributes. He is, on the surface, a very charming man. This in mind, he has practically begged voters to base their decision to vote for him on his likability. Now that this is going up in flames, the electorate is suddenly supposed to consider other B. Hussein pros?

Which ones? If he could stop bashing Hillary (McCain, Bush and anyone else that disagrees with his very, very narrow, stereotypical views) long enough to actually SAY something, he might have a case. As it is, he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Fast forward back to today. After watching the pathetic display of his speech at the DNC.

He talked about change like he always does with no actual plans or ideas on how to change it. I can ramble off a laundry list of everything horrible on anything and say I want to change it and how horrible it is.

There isn't any substance to saying it.

Once the debates begin and he doesn't have a prompter in front of him and is bombarded with questions he can't answer, he will be seen as the fraud he really is.

The guy's been stepping on himself for the last five months on everything he says and has been treated by the press with kid gloves.

Wait until the Republican machine starts after him. He's dead.

He got no bounce during his own week, he will be down double digits next week at this time.

More of the same crap. All style ... no substance.

The old “don't pay attention to the man behind the curtain” routine.

Obama kills me, he forgets who he is trying to impress ... the 9 percent undecided

Not the lemmings from the DNC.

Voting for Obama would be like voting for the receptionist at a company to be the CEO, because he or she is friends with everyone in the office, dresses nice, and speaks well on the phone.

I'm pragmatic and don't think “charisma” is a qualification for the president of a country, sorry if I'm policy and experience driven.

" You are apparently writing this post from bizarro world as your observations are the opposite of what the rest of the real world saw. I even have republican friends that say Obamas speech was better than McSames. And in your world Sarah Barracuda has experience? And the polls are showing a range of 4pt advantage Obama to an even contest. This is after the RNC which should be McSames bounce. In bizarro world that means McSame is in the lead. "

" Not a big fan of Obama here, but even less so of McSame! Neither one of them should get into office! Why dont we just stop the nonsense and elect a pharmaceutical company or one of the oil companies to run this country, after all they are already doing it and have been doing it for quite sometime!

" What a complete Republican lapdog!
Oh--you wanna talk about "charismatic"-but-COMPLETELY-UNQUALIFIED candidates?!!
SARAH PALIN!?!?!
DUH?!?!
By the way, Jesse--you're in the distinct minority who feels that Barack's speech lacked substance--compared to John McCain's which was like, "creampuff light"!
It's reactions like this from the Right which show how truly worried they are that they might have a Black president!
GOBAMA!

GOOOOOOO 'BAMAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! "
