I think it's messed up
that Senator Obama's immediate and not so distant relatives live in poverty and he apparantly does nothing about it. Am I wrong to think that this is a poor reflection on his character?

I consider both Obama and McCain to be regular old politicians. Not particularly better or worse than average. Just a couple of guys who play the game and do it pretty well. |

Biden donating $300 dollars a year just indicates that he's stingy. I don't know that he ever claimed to be otherwise. |

And I never accused Palin of hypocrisy. I said it was a strategic mistake by the RNC to put Palin forth as the NASCAR queen and then dress her in clothes from Saks. I believe that's true. Biden and his charitable donations are unrelated. |
Worry not, YOhio - and you too Babs.
Once Obama takes office, he'll realize that in order to make good with all of his bullshit promises, your taxes will increase significantly. And the fact that he ignores his brother's plight is no surprise. He's a politician and only gives a damn about his political career. |

Give me a break. The only people to whom that clothing buy was a big deal are people looking for a reason to nitpick. Maybe you'd prefer she wore her ski jacket to the convention. Quote:

I never said she was an elitist. I said the RNC made a mistake. |

When people like Bill Gates donate hundreds of millions to foundations, etc? I lump this stat in with: 1. Springville Meth Capital of the world 2. My mission was the highest baptizing mission in the world |

As for Obama's brother, I doubt any of us know what he has or has not attempted to do with his brother. We don't know if he tried and his brother declined aid or what the situation is. |

That's how we roll. |

This is all a moo point because it is highly unlikely that exie's claim is even accurate.
Where does he even get that statistic? The sheer concentrations of wealth and population in states like California, Florida, New York, Illinois, Texas, Connecticut (wealth, not pops)....would make it highly unlikely that Utah leads the nation in any category. |
