Al Jazeera has been resposnbile for more death than Bush/Cheney? What's the big deal? I suppose I'm a terrorist because I read the Al Jazeera web site to get another view of the world. A variety of ideas, oh, the horror.
"another view of the world...a variety of ideas" From al Jazeera? HAHAHAHAHA
Have you ever seen it or are you just going by the negative connotations that are placed on it here in the West?
i watche the video, where the beheading, as i thought that what Al Jazeera showed.
It's good to see a presidential candidate who represents the diversity of the United States and the world. Go Obama!
She is not his biological grandmother. She is Obama's father's step-mother, so she is Obama's step-grandmother. He has only met her a couple of times, the first being when he was in his 20's.
Why do you find it necessary to point out the blood relation? Obama calls him grandmother (NOT STEPGRANDMOTHER) because the she raised his father
Exactly -- my father's mother died when my father was one year old. His father remarried and his new wife raised my father. I have always called her my grandmother.
How do we even know if the translations are correct? Sorry, but I don't trust much of anything relating to Obama.
Hmmmmmmmm------I see your point. It is entirely possible, and plausible, that Senator Obama was able to persuade the largest source of news in the Muslim world to incorrectly dub their reports in English just on the off chance that there might be an opportunity to lead you astray. How extraordinarily clever and astute you are!
Well I bet you are one of those perceptive individuals that believes Senator Obama to be personally responsible for stopping a revote in both Florida and Michigan! Yep, he is so very exceptionally powerful that he was single handedly able to stop something of this magnitude.
Since you have seen through his smoke screen and correctly identified Senator Obama's superpowers, surely you realize that to fight him is foolish. Perhaps you should just give up right now and accept the inevitable.
She definitely isn't Barbara Bush.
Thank God for that.
Or else we might have heard about how much better thousands of displaced Kenyans are doing since they've left their homes for refugee camps to escape the violence that followed recent elections.
Even though a step-grandmother, I can see that she is very proud of Sen. Obama. As are millions of us who look forward to checking his name on that presidential ballot in November!
No, she isn't. I don't see any fangs, claws, or foam spewing from her jowls.
Very touching. It's great to get a glimpse into a branch of the diverse Obama family tree and to see the pride that they have in their American grandson/cousin. President Obama would be a beacon of hope and light for the entire world.
I'm very proud of Obama
Anybody remember Jimmy Carter's brother Billy?
Or Bill Clinton's brother Roger?
Guilt by association is illogical and wrong.
People have a right to be judged on their own merits.
I cannot control what my Rabbi says, nor what my Grandmother said.
Neither can Obama.
The American People will either be smart enough to figure that out or they won't.
You can't save people from themselves.
They either wise up to emotional manipulation as a political tool or they suffer the consequences.
For the last 8 years we have been suffering the consequences.
That's the beauty of the Obama presidency: it will bring a lot of goodwill to the US and unite the world. He is in a unique position to unite muslim, jews and christians and start a dialogue that will bring peace and less violence in the world.
Oh boy, we should condemn her for even SPEAKING to that news service, shouldn't we? Al-Jazeera, the mouthpiece of terrorists everywhere!
In truth, Al-Jazeera is a respected news agency whose honesty on middle Eastern affairs often exceeds that of the White House Press Office.
Prior to September 11, 2001, the United States government had lauded Al Jazeera for its role as an independent media outlet in the Middle East. (from Wikipedia).
Before you mouth off on Al-Jazeera, do some homework, people.
Grandmother Obama:
We are your grandson's supporters. He is a good man. I myself come from another country, eastern Europe and proudly so. Your grandson has had an impact on our youth (black, white, latino, asian) in Europe and here in the United States that people born here have never witnessed before, except maybe President John F. Kennedy. It is going to be a big struggle because of the desperate need for change; which I'm sure you are aware of from the Motherland. My family and I pray for him and would love to see you come here (USA) soon. Love across the miles.
The B family
A nice letter!
Vote for hope
So good to know Al -Jazeera has endorsed Barak H. Obama too. Maybe Obama will give huts to those who are loosing their homes, seems good enough for his own grandmother. Who needs electricity or water? How much money did he make last year?? Family really must matter to him.
They got at least one fact wrong, his grandmother considers herself Christian, not muslim.
