Your mama wears combat boots

Yes, his full name is Barack Hussein Obama. And how nice of the aged bullies on the playground to keep bringing it up, as if it proves something. Plenty of us have middle names that are an embarassment -- and the fault for that lies squarely on the shoulders of our parents.

This is America. This country was founded on the idea that you don't have to be your parents -- you can be anyone you want to be. For people to question this man's loyalty to our country, when his story -- his life -- are only made possible because he is an American is ... unpatriotic.

Keep on calling him names, though. I'm sure that will narrow the ever-widening gap in the polls.

Change is coming. Embrace it.

did you see that the deputy who pulled that crap the other day might get fired for (1) promoting a candidate while on duty and (2) doing it in uniform. too bad you can't fire people for stupidity too.
