Obama’s a cheap date

Posted by Nicki on July 9th, 2007 at 10:17 am · TrackBack URI

Courtesy of Wade on Birmingham and The Birmingham News, Barack Obama is back in Alabama again. He will be in Huntsville today and Birmingham tonight for fundraising events for his campaign.

Now what surprises me is that you can attend the lunchtime affairs in Rocket City for anywhere from $1000 to $2300. (Yikes! That’d better be some good soup!) But dinner in Birmingham will only cost you $25. Yup, less than a tank of gas, that Obama is a cheap date for the Magic City.

I won’t be going, no sir-ee Bob; but I would be interested in hearing real answers to key issues rather than the tired rhetoric that’s currently posted to his website. Don’t tell me what you think I want to hear, tell me what you actually PLAN to do about the problems in this country — because brother, you haven’t said anything to impress me YET!

Barack husain obama Was born the son of a muslim. He was schooled
in a madrasa thru his formitive years. The koran claims that if one is born of a muslim father that the son is a muslim for life.

Do you think the republicans know he was not native born as is requiered by our consatution? Or has bush thronw out that part too?

Hi Thomas,

From what I’ve read, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii, thereby fulfilling the prerequisite to which you referred. I’m sure Republicans are fully aware of his heritage and his religion (as am I). Given that my brother and his lovely wife are Obama supporters, as are several other loved ones and friends, I’ve been given plenty of Obama-related material via email, etc.

… doesn’t sway my vote though. ;P

As I understand it, the requirements to run for President are:

* be a natural-born citizen of the United States
* be at least 35 years of age
* have been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years

I would imagine that when he submitted his Statement of Candidacy form, he would have to show proof of the above.

We have seen what Muslims have done to America, do we really need or want this as our Commander/Chief. I think not! We will all be reading the Koran and having 35 prayer breaks a day

Baracka Hussein Obama Was born a muslim and went to a madrussa
untill he was 9 yrs of age. This formed his core values. Now we have had an extremist call for jahad against the USA. His subconious mind
is programed to respond to the call. Now we find that he has been working the system like any other low rent poliction as the Rezeo
trail has shown to us. The repubs are so very happy to run against him
that they are about to wet there pants. Do we really want more of the same that got us to this place and time? Reagan, Bush & Bush ? Via
Carl Rove ? This is not American Idol, This is for real…

:???: I have lived in Hawaii 15 years. My Caucasian daughter-in-law and both of her aged parents were born in Honolulu as were our two grand-sons. ALL of us have birth certificates of American birth. I read that Barack Hussein Obama was born in Waikiki, which is part of Honolulu County, but there is NO HOSPITAL in Waikiki. DOES BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA HAVE A BIRTH CERTIFICATE INDICATING HE IS AMERICAN-BORN AS REQUIRED BY OUR CONSTITUTION? AND HAS HE BEEN AN AMERICAN RESIDENT FOR THE PAST 14 YEARS ALSO AS REQUIRED BY OUR CONSTITUTION?

Does anyone stop and think about this? We all follow the saying this is One Nation Under GOD. Barack Obama is Muslim he doesn’t follow that. Hell he wont even look at the American flag if he is supposedly a U.S citizen then why wont he back the flag.People come on how do we know he isn’t a inside worker for the terrorist . He is Muslim does anyone want to take the risk of what he may do?

Why doesn’t someone like Drudge look into the “real” birthplace of Obama. Our country is surely headed in the wrong direction if the “polite pc” police (aka our spineless republican party) are afraid of offending the Obama machine. Geoge Soros is surely buying a pres. with this extreme-liberal candidate. Good manners prevent me from saying what I really want to do to these guys. Not only is this country’s entire future at stake here, (along with the rest of the world)this is personal; my own children’s future is at stake. Is anyone out there listening anymore?? Is everyone (both parties & drive-bys) so mezmerized by this anti-christ wannabe- that they can’t/won’t at least look into the real BHO??? and the real truth on this guy. (His wife looks absolutely evil & hate filled).
