Politics and religion.

I believe McCain has a bunch of pets and Obama has none...I don't really judge Obama on that, in his position how could he care for them or spend any time with them anyway. I think all presidents have to get a dog though so that will change soon

I would imagine that neither candidate has much time to spend at home with pets these days. I do hope that Obama will become a pet owner at some point. His little girls would sure benefit.

Richard I can't believe Clinton said that. I wonder if he has Monica flashbacks!

The Obama children have been promised a dog no matter the outcome of the campaign.

Ya think?

I almost made a comment about this yesterday.

First, He opens the kids up to being critiqued, I liked the comment the older one made about decorating her room in the White House should dad win. Do we have to foot that bill?

Second was the hammering BO took about his clothes (LOL, I am not the only one who thinks of the saying "clothes make the man") and his leaving his bags on the floor.

I think that he took more personal hits from his own family than he does from the press-kinda like going to a family reunion and having all your foibles exposed in front of everyone.

HE didn't come off as 'presidential' as he wants us to think-I had a friend who lived in the same kind of household, three woman and one man-the dinner invites to me stopped as the kids got older-during the table conversations they'd kid dad about his house habits and I could tell that it bothered him.

Guys with dreams of 'big offices' don't want people to see what their weaknesses are-BO is a good example of that.

The consultant who suggested the interview is probably looking for a new gig right about now.

I wonder when we'll get to meet JM's family?

Yep, the new first family get to decorate the White House the way they want. Every first lady gets new dinnerware and silverware and everything else they want. I'm sure the first kids get to do their thing too!!!

Jessie Jackson is apologing all over the place for crude comments about
BO that were overheard in an open mike at a political gathering. I wish he
would just disappear from public view for a long, long time. What the heck
does he do for a living anyway?

JJ collects money from unions to speak at events.

JJ and Al Sharptongue have been very silent in the previous months. I think that they have a little of the 'presumptive envy' because BO was able to do something that they tried and were unsuccessful.

It's a guy thing-they are ticked off and have no intention of playing second fiddle. Some of the 'luster' that they had hoped for in their pres campaigns was stolen by this rookie senator with little political experience, compared to their media/BS/political savvy.

JJ said what he felt and his apology was pretty weird.....He starts to list 50 years of civil rights dates, marches and laws.

What does that have to do with crumbing on someone you don't see eye to eye with?

LOL, Poor BO.

He went on the Today Show with his tail tucked-HE's so caclulated with his campaign and he slips up by going on a dopey entertainment show. The kids said nothing that would hurt his run for office.

It's his bloated ego and desire to be "the man".

Sorry Chucky, you messed that one up.

You are dead on right with your reading of JJ. Talk about egos, his is
completely over the top.

BO speaks out about black fathers who are absent from their childrens
lives & the effect that has on the Black community, and JJ wants to
attack BO for it. At least BO speaks the truth, just like Bill Cosby does.
