Re: Obama scores a hat-trick!
Well, tbh, I don't care if you are red, yellow, black(brown FFS), white at the wind driven snow(like myself) or green with purple star shaped polkadots, if you acquit yourself as an adult in so far as you do your job to the best of your ability and respect those around you, then I don't give a flying flip about what you do in your off time.  One of the finest men I know is a black man, I count him among my few friends.  Most people my age and younger are like that, but my dad has a different perspective, he came up in a time when that particular word was given it's current negative meaning.  His formative experiences were with no good layabouts that were worthless not only to the guy they were working for and with, but to themselves also.  So he's rather a bit vehement about racial matters.  But bear this strongly, I'm not going to give a pass to someone who isn't pulling they're weight, I don't care who they're daddy was or what he did.  Dr. King DID NOT die for special treatment, he and many others died and were treated horribly so that some day in the future they could be considered EQUAL to white men.

Many names, but always me.

Obama actually believes in Luis Armand and Angel.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Re: Obama scores a hat-trick!
Maybe it's just me, but I kinda thought that when society as a whole was past this kind of stuff, no one would notice when stuff like this happens. Unfortunately, I think it's too much to ask for people to forget the concept of race. But I still kinda wish people would pretend that they could.

Or maybe it's just me, and I'm completely insane.

Nah, I agree. When Obama won the election, there was so much talk about how Martin Luther King's dream had finally been fulfilled... but based on what MLK talked about in his most famous speech, I don't think we're quite there yet. The day a minority president is elected, and the nation doesn't consider it that big of a deal... that's when we can really begin to make statements like that.

Of course, it could just be that we're both insane.  :nervous:

"Uh, yeah, I mean it's tough to say, woulda-coulda-shoulda, ifs and buts like candy and nuts, you know, you never know.  This, that, and the other thing.  Who knows?  You know, there are a lot of what-ifs.  You know, my whole life is a lot of what-ifs."

... this is some small minded idiots ignorance laid out for public consumption.

Granted, but the reason for the post was really just that I found humor in Obama being called a member of each of three of the largest religions on the planet.  I'd go on, but I'd undermine the joke further, if I did.

Judaism is actually one of the smallest religions on the planet. Christianity, Islam, and Hindu are the three largest religions, in that order.

True but in the western world Judaism is easily one of the most politically and economically visible. AIPAC anyone?

Think that has a little to do with our european history and the odd feeling of guilt still around....

There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen and those who wonder what happened.

Active might be pushing it, but I have been known to pontificate from time to time.

Re: Obama scores a hat-trick!
Me too, I just happened to pop in. 

Anyway it's good to see you had a lot of respect for you and Rictor in our old discussions.  Which you probably don't remember since it was so many years ago. :p
