I wonder why he is still behind in Ohio? Is the racism of that state just WAY worse than that of Texas?

I have almost always come away from conversations with friends/relatives from Midwest and Northeastern states thinking that Texans and Southerners are, in some ways, more "tolerant" than those from the "Union" who have historically derided us as "bigots."

I wish someone could explain to me why one freakin' communist is that much better than the other ones. Obama, Clinton, McCain, three peas in a socialist/communist pod. A pox on all of them and a plague on all their houses!

In his speech the other day accepting Dodd's endorsement, Obama repeated his previous calls for closing Guantanamo, restoring habeas corpus, and following the Constitution. He also expressed his support for Dodd's filibuster against immunity for the telecoms' illegal snooping and his opposition to the immunity and the snooping.

I don't think either of the other major candidates has done anything like that.

Here's a link to Obama's speech the other day.

I am more interested in how he votes on socialist crap than I am on hearing or reading his speeches. Most politicians can make good speeches because they have good speech writers. And most of them don't mean a word they say.

Only Hillary and McCain have not been making that kind of speech.

I read his speech you linked to. Not each and every word but I didn't see any condemnation of an unjust and improperly applied tax (the "income" tax) in the whole speech. If he actually knows the Constitution as well as he claims to then why doesn't he know that the IRS is robbing people under color of law? A "law" which doesn't even apply to most people and no one who works in an "occupation of common right"? He is as big a fraud as any of the rest of them.

You seem to think all people who do not share your view of what taxes are allowed under the Constitution do not believe in the Constitution at all. That doesn't leave many people.

It does, however, leave Grover Norquist and his antitax people, who are willing to surrender all our other liberties just so that they can keep taxes as low as possible.

At least I don't think that all taxes are legitimate so long as some "official" claims they are. If you think that there may not be a lot of help for you but I really thought you were smarter than that.

The income tax is only one issue. One that we have had to live with for many decades. Since 1913, to be precise.

If you think we have been in a totalitarian state since then, and that all other government assaults don't matter as long as we have to put up with this one, I'm afraid I can't help you.

You sound like you believe you are talking to someone who is ignorant of government atrocities. I assure you I am not but many of them can be linked to the income tax scam. And I don't recall asking for your help, just pointing out that this Obama guy isn't someone who is going to end the hoaxes, frauds and crimes that are being perpetrated against Americans.

True, but he might get us out of Iraq. That's a start.

He will if that is what he is told to do. Otherwise we will be bogged down there just like we are now. And of course the neocons want to attack Iran, just looking for an excuse. I hope this Obama guy is all some of you think he is but I truly doubt it.

My guy is Ron Paul, and I'll still be writing him in, no matter what else happens.

That's the spirit!

I will be doing the same, on the remote chance that he doesn't win the nomination. ;)
