"It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood ..."

Just get ready for scores of this racial nonsense as the first black legitimate candidate for president goes into the final 90 days. Every MAC offensive will be responded to by calling him a racist. Its nauseating. This from FOX News:

The McCain campaign is accusing Sen. Obama of playing the “race card” for stating yesterday that the presumptive Republican nominee was engaging in fear tactics and xenophobia.

“Barack Obama has played the race card, and he played it from the bottom of the deck. It’s divisive, negative, shameful and wrong,” said McCain Campaign Manager Rick Davis Thursday, citing multiple statements by Obama yesterday.

“So what they’re going to try to do is make you scared of me. You know, he’s not patriotic enough. He’s got a funny name. You know, he doesn’t look like all those other Presidents on those dollar bills, you know. He’s risky. That’s essentially the argument they’re making,” Obama told supporters in Springfield, MO Wednesday in response to the tv spot McCain released yesterday.

In the new ad, McCain compares his Democratic rival to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton in an attempt to paint him as an empty suit and a vapid celebrity who lacks the experience and skills for the White House.

By the way, I've seen the commercial comparing Obama to Hilton and Spears, race is not a component whatsoever. And the point is valid and clever - they're using his celebrity status and crowds, his strength, against him ... Sun Tzu would be proud. And FYI Barry ol' buddy, telling Americans to better inflate their tires and get tune-ups as part of your "energy plan" is as EMPTY as they come - you might as well borrow Jimmy Carter's Mr. Rogers sweater and tell us all to turn down the thermostat this winter. America has seen this act ... they aren't buying.

Some say Obama is a political neophyte who hasn’t been around around a long enough in politics. But that just isn’t so. He has been around for a long, long year.

I recognized him immediately when I first saw him as I wasn’t taken in by his cosmetic difference in appearance. When he used the word “change” it was a dead give-away. He has used that slogan before.

So, if you are ever in a position to meet Obama personally I would advise you to have some courtesy, have some sympathy, and some taste. And remember to use all your well-learned politesse if you are ever in His presence.

I must be missing humor or something. Where did you see him before?
