Hi Everyone!! I hope you're OK. Senator Barack Obama declined an invitation to attend the annual 'State of the Black Union' forum in New Orleans. Obama's decision not to attend has been criticized by Travis Smiley - the man hosting the event. Mr. Smiley's criticisms have been responded to [by some people] in a rather unpleasant way. He has been inundated with angry e-mails and even DEATH THREATS. Some people are harassing his family - including his MOM. I wonder. [Having already posted a message about this before]Is this a preview of things to come? Will Americans eventually become too fearful to criticize a President Obama?! Click on THIS to read the story. GREAT BIG HUGCraig!!

Dare to Criticize Obama? Than you shall DIE!!
-
wow
I guess Obama is the only person with a few nuts as supporters. What a heavy burden. -
Then* :-P
And this has no significance, really, on what happens when you criticize Obama, since every single candidate has crazy supporters.
-
People are always ragging on Obama like he's supposed to be Mr. Perfect. Leave the guy alone and get a life jeez.This is so typical. Knew this was going to happen. America lol

Yes, and Obama is being judged on what OTHER people did. So they support him, big whoop, they aren't paid by him nor were they instructed to do anything like this by Obama.

I cannot say, I do not represent Europe.

Well, then who do YOU want to win?
-
I don't want anyone to win, I'm just sitting here quietly until Canada takes over the US. Now that would be nice...

Really? I prefer rats.

Have you ever thought that maybe its the President that's keeps making stupid decisions and its Congress that are saving you all from the consequences? Or, most likely, they're both corrupt but just with conflicting agendas.

I know that's what happened and that's what I was commenting on.dirk

Yes, spoken like a true European who's never lived here.
You just said earlier you don't speak for Europe, but you're so quick to speak your mind on the U.S. What's that about?

OK, since you didn't seem to get how I was just trying to show how it may be anybody's fault, I would like to also point out how they could all be perfectly innocent and just conflict naturally.Thank you for highlighting something that you wanted to be there, but wasn't.
-
Or highlighting something that seemed to be there but may or may not have been. The tone led it to seem as if that's what you were hinting at. But you're right that it could be that the President isn't working with Congress. Though it's more likely that neither are willing to work with each other.
