There are Two Kinds of People..Givers and Takers!.. Obama is a TAKER!
And that is the kind of person you want to stay away from..

Look at the FREE RIDE Obama's been given his whole life...

FREE-Private Elementary School

FREE-Scholarship to Harvard Law

FREE-Ride to State Senate

FREE Ride to the US Senate

FREE Ride to the Presidency? I don't think SO!

The BUCK STOPS at the Ballot Box. Brace yourself, Barry for a BIG Surprise!

28. Two flames? Are you kidding? You shouldn't confuse the truth with flaming
I know it's hard to stomach, but look into and you'll see there's lots of truth to it.

4. Are you nuts...
That scholarship to Harvard is certainly something to be ashamed of. (sarcasm)

And I think the voters sent him to the state and US senate. Not sure where the "free ride" is there.

6. Hmm.
So are you accusing Obama of being lazy, non-productive, and somebody who benefited because of social promotion?

Interesting.

7. Free ride to Harvard Law?
Yup, Harvard Law just DISHES OUT those J.D. degrees and is all too eager to put people on the honors list!!!

10. Oh, please. You have to earn scholarships.
I bet he had to do a few things to get elected to the offices he's held too.
What a bullshit post.

12. You're kidding right?
This is just laughable, really.

You're going to hold private elementary school up as a negative against him? Tell me, how many children actually pay for their own elementary school, public or private?

Also, a scholarship to Harvard Law? I don't think I've heard that one before - have a cite? And, even if it were true, the monumental amount of hard work it would take to earn such a scholarship makes me respect him even more, and believe more firmly that he's the right person to be the 44th President.

A free ride to the Senate? Obama had an easy campaign thanks to his opponent's meltdown, but he also had a tough primary, which he won handily I might add.

I also noticed that you conveniently ignored his degree from Columbia, another very well-respected institution.

23. He did not have a tough primary.
That simply is not true.

You do not live in Illinois, and you do not know what you are talking about in terms of that primary.

14. This is perhaps the only time I have ever seen anyone bash a candidate
Edited on Mon Feb-18-08 12:40 PM by Occam Bandage
for being intelligent and driven enough to get a scholarship to Harvard Law.

Oh, wait, that wouldn't make sense, now would it? You wouldn't be saying he was smart and hardworking...no, you're saying he got a free ride for other reasons, aren't you?

Gee, it was so scintillating. I await the other two with bated breath.

22. At least obama learned math. Say, remember when Bill Clinton was being hounded by the Repos,
and the more petty, vile, ugly, half truths, distortians and stupid charges the Repos came up with and pushed daily, the higher Bill's popularity ratings went?

It's almost like the Repos gave Bill a free ride to the top of the ratings.Remember that?

I think some of the harder working Hill supporters have been giving Obama a simular ride up the ratings charts, and you guys and gals deserve us Obama supporter's gratitutde.

So thank you for 'handshake gate' thanks for 'cult gate' and thank you for 'speech gate' and for all the rest of the forgotten by the wayside gates. We couldn't have won without you. Oh, and thank you for 'free ride gate,' Tellurian.

24. Ah, gee, Tellurian, you can do better than this kind of post.
Seriously. Look at his background objectively. He's received a lot of help because of his smarts and personality, particularly in Chicago, but no free ride.

25. This post crosses the line. We should never be this hateful to someone who is
doing so much for the Democratic Party.

This poster is full of hate. And shows it every time he/she post

26. Why don't you just come out claim all of his success is due to Affirmative Action?
That is clearly what you're trying to insinuate - have the courage of your convictions and say what you mean.

P.S. I'm still trying to figure out how anybody gets a "free" ride to elected office. Last time I checked, you do have to convince a few people to vote for you. At any rate, I'm going to give you a "free" ride to Ignoresville now. Buh-bye.

hahaha, anyone who can get more than one Obamaite to use the ignore function in one thread must be saying the right things and pushing the button of truth.
