      Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times

    However, as they are free to say whatever bull**** they want, still we are free not to waste our time on them! As I said, I am not that optimistic about Obama, but let’s see whether he has got any idea behind his smile, especially as welfare and international politics are concerned…

     . . .gonna be a while. . .got a helluva lotta damage to undo. . .and if this is really gonna be a ‘free’ country, it’s gonna pop up again and again. . .it has to, otherwise, there’d be no freedoms.

    i don’t like it. . .now one whit. . .but if this is truly ‘free’ country, we must expect that we will encounter thngs like this.  otherwise it negates the very principle of freedom.

    Hi okami,

    I don’t know if USA are a racist nation, I don’t think so and I hope not. But I agree with you 100% on the other bits of your comments!
