Obama's Secret Revealed

It is common for presidential candidates to hide details about their lives for fear that if these stories got out, voters would turn against the candidate. For example, George Bush's campaign went to great lengths to keep secret his arrest record and his cocaine use, while John Kerry held back his mediocre Yale University grade transcripts (not one A in four years). It turns out that Barack Obama also has a secret that, if it had been revealed before the election, would have surely lost him thousands of votes in crucial swing states. Now that the election is over, the truth can finally be told...

Ha ha ha.

I'll tell you Mr. Wallechinsky, I was sweating there for awhile that this secret might come out. I mean a chunk of the country has twice elected a man who doesn't speak English, and were trying their best to elect a woman who thinks that as vice president she would be running the senate, the first amendment is to protect her from all journalist's opinions unless their name is Sean Hannity, and that habeas corpus is what a police officer has to read to you before he arrests you ....that Obama was smart enough to not only know the constitution but could teach it to others might have ruled him out completely. It's scary to think about.

Thanks for breaking the news. It will be a shock to them, but with our help (arm twisting) I think they might actually grow to like having a smart President.

I'm pleased to have a president, sworn to uphold the Constitution, who has actually read it. Surely even the willfully ignorant set will soon see the value of education, and may even demand better ones for their children.

Hi Freesia2,
I doubt that.
While President-elect Obama is examining prospects for his administration, the neocons are bemoaning the fact that he is *gasp* picking experienced professionals. From both sides of the aisle.
"He campaigned for change and now he's picking all these insiders. That's not change!"
*argggg*
*mutter mumble mutter*
as though he's supposed to use the want ads for candidates.
Then again no surprises. Look who THEY picked for VP.

"as though he's supposed to use the want ads for candidates" lol

blaqntelligence, I wouldn't be surprised if that's their hiring practice, as I'm fairly certain that the highly paid campaign people who were allowing Joe the Plumber to give opinions on foreign policy would hire their secretary of state from a name they found scribbled on the wall of a pool hall.....The Republican party is having a real problem right now. I've been reading a lot about how they are split in 2 - if you're for Palin and think she's a genious then you get to be a Republican. If you're a registered Republican with a brain that tells you she's a con artist and a joke, then you are exiled. Should get interesting.

I saw this show once about scientists digging in Alaska, unearthing dangerous virus's that had been preserved by the Alaskan cold.....connection maybe? hmmm. :-)
