Jeff, look at the following link:
http://www.myfoxhouston.com/myfox/pa...Y&pageId=1.1.1 Notice Obama's staffers in Texas celebrating Super Tuesday results. Is that a poster of Che Guevara on the wall. What's with that? First Teddy Kennedy and now Che Guevara? Dave |

Apparently it is the Fox network station out of Houston. I've never judged a man by his religion. If McCain's supporters who are racist work for him and display racist posters, he should get rid of them. The man is running for POTUS; he should have NO connection with Che Guevara or any other Communist revolutionary. Guevara AND Kennedy? What a team...... Dave |

How could McCain or any other candidate inspect the personal spaces or vouch for uniformity of thought for every one of his supporters? |

You know I thought the same, until myself and most of the volunteers who opened the Perot campaign headquarter in Raleigh and Charlotte, NC were fire wholesale, and Perot sent in his *Dallas White Shirts back in '92. They acquired the rented office space from the landlord and changed the door locks. It happend all over the country. I talked to Perot volunteers in many state, at that time, who were also let go and replaced by the Dallas White Shirts. How could McCain or any other candidate inspect the personal spaces or vouch for uniformity of thought for every one of his supporters? Agreed. Op *Mostly graduates from Texas Christian University, if memory serves. |

In this time of easy communications, I am sure either of them could find a way. For starters, wouldn't it be nice if Obama told his Houston office to remove the poster? A simple mandate, "Do not embarass me," should suffice. I am not saying that Obama is praising Guevara, but his *people* are. He should be able to control that. If not, how in the hell is he going to run a *country* if he can't run a simple campaign office? Dave |

Dave the website clearly states(Fox website) that the office pictured WAS NOT a campaign office, but merely belonged to a group of folks who volunteered to work on his campaign. Spare me a leader who would be control freak enough to tell those who support him on general principles HOW to think. We've seen enough of that sort of all or nothing political thought, IMO. Tom |

The man is running for POTUS; he should have NO connection with Che Guevara or any other Communist revolutionary. Guevara AND Kennedy? What a team...... You seem to have really taken my mention of Kennedy and run with it. Here's my "fear" with Kennedy - note it has nothing to do with Teddy's personal, er, foibles: I haven't really kept up with Teddy in Congress and at home as of late, but he's still a Kennedy and I don't see him endorsing Obama (or anyone else) simply because, gosh darnit, it'd be good for the ol' US of A. Surely, Obama knew when he got a call from them (the Kennedy machine), it was a quid pro quo kinda thing, and that's giving him the benefit of the doubt that HE didn't make the call out. If had been just Caroline with a little jungle fever and a touch of the old "he's just like my daddy, St. Jack of Camelot," maybe - not likely, but a slight maybe - it was simple, genuine rah, rah, but with whole machine cranked up? No way, no how. So, IAC, Obama deals or he doesn't. Obama takes the call. That leaves only a coupla-three explanations: first, he is a pol, and that's what young pols do - take scratch-my-back calls from old pols, or, two, he's politically VERY naive and actually told himself that Kennedy was just another rich white swooner with a man-crush, or three, he's dumber than a sack of wet biscuits. Personally, I pretty much scratch option three smooth off the list and two don't look real promising either, so that leaves us with option one. For all the rah-rah and hope horse****, at the end of the day, he's a pol. Good. He's running for POTUS. He damned well better be. I didn't think he was out to dinner one night several years ago, got slipped a mickey, and awoke to find that he had been Shanghaied into the Illinois House. Which brings us back to a paraphrasing of my question: just what kind of pol is this sumbitch, what did that piece of **** Kennedy get out of the deal, and just bad is it gonna wind up ****ing _me_? TC, R Dave |
