You're off the mark on nearly all your points.

Not worth discussing imho.

Someone throw him/her a donut.

Long, long ago, before I came to this site under this identity, I was raising the flags about Obama, Wright, Farrakhan, Conyers, and others.

I was attacked as racist and as being "off the mark" by many, possibly including you.

I knew McCain's, Huckabee's, and Clinton's warts, for the most part. Most of their lives have been open to view for years. So, I began to look under the hood of this phenomenon called Obama.

What I found was truly disturbing. His connections with Wright, Farrakhan, Conyers, and Tillman (Chicago), as well as other separatists and blatant racists troubled me.

His pandering to hispanic separatist groups, like La Raza, also raised my flags.

Obama loathes soldiers, cops, veterans, and anyone else who might be painted as "white" authority.

Many blacks (NOT all, by any means) call our involvements in the Persian Gulf (in 1990) and in Iraq (since 2003), as a "white man's war." "Their" soldiers have no business being over there fighting "Bush's War."

Obama's rhetoric put a more polite gloss on the same sentiment.

I suppose this Hawaiian from Harvard adopted these views to blacken himself up enough to be appealing to more black voters in Chicago.

I never said that I was "right," because I remain open to new information to adjust me position or views as more is known and understood.

However, in retrospect, it seems that some of my initial concerns about Obama were more right than wrong, and I doubt that my current views are as far off the mark as you think.

Time for a reality check, junior.
