"....an incompetent and inexperience black man with good teeth."

If you are going to call a fellow lawyer with a degree from a mighty fine institution "incompetent," you probably want to make sure the critical sentence is error free. Otherwise, liberals will laugh at the critique.

I don't know what you look like so I couldn't begin to spot you at the car show. What a great cause you serve though! And that's what life is really all about!

Nice work,

I've got to mention "to be a democrat" point #2:

"2. Protecting our National interests over those of any dictator, is wrong. Keeping our promises to our allies, like Kuwait is unimportant. Any use of military action is unwarranted, unless you need to keep the news off your sexual escapades."

Funny you should mention Kuwait today. I'm pretty familiar with that part of the world. John McCain said, last week, that he would develop an energy policy that would prevent the U.S. from ever having to go to war in the Middle East again.

When correctly challenged on his insinuation that we went to war for energy (AKA oil, John's straight talk express got up in the marbles and slammed into the wall. John said, get this, that he was talking about Gulf War 1 in 1991. Senator Vitter's sexual escapades not withstanding, you are aware that we actually went to war in 1991 to liberate Kuwait from Iraq, which had invaded them months earlier. Now, I don't know about you, but I do not equate liberating a country from an occupying country is fighting for oil. Oddly enough, we are now the occupier. Maybe I'll ask Denise if we are the lessor or lessee. Too bad McCain doesn't carry Lieberman around everywhere to say, "Ummm, John? No. That war was a liberation. Yeah. No, you can't get a wacky pack right now. Yes, John, those are pretty little flowers. This way John. Over here."

Cheers mate,

Cheers,

Having a Harvard degree is very prestigious no doubt. It would have been interesting if he really used it, instead, he dived into that "community organizer" role immediately. Those wheels in his mind were turning, and he wanted to move up the ladder quickly. Where else would a black harvard grad most certainly excel, but in the low economic and educational demographics of South Chicago. Which troubles me, because that reminds me of pictures of Bill Clinton meeting JFK when he was 12 or so, and how you could just see it in his eyes, that no matter what he had to do, he would become President.

Well thats what Obama sounds like to me. An Orchestrated Candidate that has been manipulating his resume and career to get exactly where he is today.

He is not competent to be the President at this time in his resume.

For another very good example of where Obama is heading, you need only look at the mess that is happening with another young, dynamic, Harvard trained black attorney. Governor Patrick of Mass is in way over his head and his negative polling is dipping down to Bushian levels.

At least this guy was smart enough to realize that he should try governing a State before he tried to grasp the golden ring called the White House.

As to locating me, next time look for the fat, ugly, old white guy, and there I will be.

A Harvard degree does not guarantee wisdom or success. But do you really think the ticket to success is working with the poor in South Chicago. Obama is such a devious man!! He should have taken his Ivy League degree and become a business failure like Bush and that way be qualified to be President.

It is time for a change.

I think Obama would have at least written "inexperienced."

Several of my students who met Hack said he looked a little like Cuba Gooding Jr., only a little more serious.

Hack would never make it as a teacher. He would get "hit on" by the girls too often. Me, on the other hand, that's not a problem, since I'm older than most of their parents.

To Mr. Richard Hobbs,
Sir, with all the respect due to one of God’s children, I have to tell you that your logic is bogus, and a house of cards would pass the coastal building codes before any of this entry could pass for useable communication to a reasonably prudent person.

an independent has views that are somewhere in the middle.

Cyclist, it looks like not only your political views, but most of your body mass is centered in the middle. Better get back on that bike!

Seriously, the weather has been perfect for biking. I got rid of my bike a couple of years ago, but I'm tempted to get another one. Do you ever utilize any of the golf cart paths, or do you stick to the roads?

My body mass is centered in the middle and extends outward - greatly. Hack, hutch, Git, sniffles, penguin, and yard can tell you I'm not lying. The nice thing is, I can always make fun of myself and nobody can get upset about it. As for the fat, I prescribe to a theory borrowed from Thermodynamics; The First Law of "fat" says that "fat" under normal conditions cannot be created or destroyed. Someone looses it and someone gains it. Unfortunately, I'm on the receiving end. Part of the problem is that I'm addicted to this darn computer and especially this web site. I need to heed my own message board below about the Surgeon General.

As for the riding, I have ridden PTC path system. Mostly with my boys or their Cub/Boy Scout group. For the most part, it's fine for slow pace pleasure riding but, when you start "hitting the hammer" and getting up into the upper teens or lower twenties in speed then it gets a little hairy. The roads are a much better choice. Follow the rules of the road and be as predictable as possible and being visable are very important.

Very soon, I'll hit one year on this site and then it might be a good time to do something else with my time; like investing it on me.

Men get that "blogger's belly" but women are predisposed to "blogger's butt."

I've noticed a bit more mass in the derriere region, since blogging incessantly on here for the past 10 months and I am vactioning out west this summer, taking on mtn. biking, river rafting, horseback riding and above-timberline hiking with my kids....

I am doomed.

I've started to work out again and will have to leave this computer and blog alone. Is there a program for blog addiction??

Main Stream, I think you already have discovered it--getting outdoors and spending time doing stuff with your kids. That beats blogging, any day.

I do have one heart-felt piece of advice--take it slow and easy for the first few days, especially the biking and hiking. If you try to do too much too soon, you will be tooooo sore!! Maybe even injured. But it you take it real easy at first, it will come back to you.

I don't know. I have quit smoking, and quit drinking, but I am not so sure about this one.

Especially these days. Well, I've had better luck keeping my waistline down, but my haircut looks suspiciously like Homer's, and sometimes I manage to sound like him as well.

If I get a bike again, it will be for the slow pleasure riding. One time about 20 years ago, I was riding a lot and in good shape, and I passed an older gentleman at the beginning of a two-mile straight stretch. I went wide open, as hard as I could, for two miles, then looked back to see how far back he was. He was RIGHT behind me! He said casually, "Not bad, you were averaging 22 mph". I was gasping for air, and he wasn't even breathing hard. Talk about a deflated ego!

Well, have a good night!

Ah haircut!!! Mine is a reveres mohawk, thank you very much!!! As for the old guy, my father is 77 years old and usually rides 3,000+ miles a year. Of course, he's retired and does not spend a lot of time blogging. One day, I too will retire!!!!

Don't be so hard on yourself. The older gentleman may have been a former world champion. Mostly, I like the slow pleasure riding on the cart paths and for a good workout, I go up Shake Rag hill. I am dreaming of the day when my chest is once again farther out than my middle.

probably riding a 'bent too. LOL Keep the faith.

Even a dead fish can go with the flow.

Yardman, we think alike. Way back in the 70's, we used to have an annual Chattahoochee Raft Race, usually in May. For those of you not familiar with these races, most people went along to drink beer and have fun. Others were actually trying to race. On one of these races, I made the philosophical observation that the race was like a metaphor for life. Some people are "paddlers", but most people are "floaters", and just along for the ride. You see the same thing in any organization.

Most of the kids I teach are floaters. The hardest thing for a teacher to do is to make students see that they need to start paddling if they want to accomplish anything with their lives. Most of them don't realize that until their college years, if then.

I think I'll borrow your line the next time I give that speech.
