Obama's so original
Obama sure could have given the country some words about Che last week... instead he was busy stealing words from Deval Patrick.

Obama says he didn't steal the words, they were just words, he was simply borrowing them and was going to return them when he was done using them ....
hold on to your wallets with this guy ...

Wait a second, those words belong to US.

Obama is supposed to be this mesmerizing speaker but Deval Patrick delivers that speech much more convincingly.

I don't think the Clinton campaign has attacked Obama for the guevara flag yet...

If you borrow words then it's not plagiarism. . . very cool!
Monica,
The Clinton's can't afford to attack Obama on the Che flag because they need the left-wing fringe to win the nomination.

Calabaza,
My statement was sarcastic in nature... :) Sarcasm isn't really conveyed well on the internet. I completely agree with you.

Reminds me of a quote from Popeye: "I am what I am."

Obama is such a blank sheet of paper. You can write anything on it and as long as you are vague and make readers feel good, it will fly like a helium balloon.
Nobody's nailing him on any specifics. Well, nobody WANTS to hear specifics, they're too painful. Tabula rasa -- take your pick, it's one size-fits-all blank slate.

Monica,
now that I reread it, I can see it.Sorry, sometimes I just post too fast.

Who cares - Obama is running for President, NOT head of the English Department. It is his political positions that count -AND- because of his positions I have and will vote for someone else. -S-
