The last thing I saw on the boob tube was Obama on with Leno and Danny Devito on Letterman. I did not pause for either to listen in and opted to hit the off button instead.
It just seemed like the conservative thing to do. ;-)

Illinois Democrat Senator Barack Obama addresses the 2006 Global Summit on AIDS and the Church conference at the Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., Friday, Dec. 1, 2006. The potential Democratic presidential candidate says that despite a person's moral beliefs, the reality of AIDS is affecting flesh-and-blood men and women who need help. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)

Do we really want a 'Joker' in the WH? I don't see why a sense of humor should disqualify him.

Forget joker, we don't need a muzzie in the WH. Not while the WOT is being fought. Just thinking about it gives me the shivers.

It appears that Keyes never had a chance against the plans the dems/media had for Osama Obama.

"the reality of AIDS is affecting flesh-and-blood men and women who need help."
Equally true for malaria, tuberculosis, cancer and Alzheimer's disease. So what's so unique and different about AIDS? Hmmmm........

In and of itself, it's not a biggy or prerequisite, besides humor is a relative thing anyway, imo.
So far, his delivery and timing do not impress me, nor do I suspect , would or could influence world leaders at a time when we teeter on the edge of conflagrations around the globe.
Having a novice with his hands on the helm does not seem like a good move, all kidding aside.

No, we don't need a joke (sic) in the White House.
We've already had at least two, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton - although the description "deadly national peril" comes closer to an accurate description. The "joke" was on us!

But I think that the "professional" politicians now taking up space in DC - from both sides - are the biggest part of the problem with American politics today, and thusly the country.

Good point, we can always strive to do better.
Career politicians are much more susceptible to losing vision of who and why they are elected to office.
There are probably exceptions but they are few and far between.

Novice? Listen to his empty rhetoric. His AIDS address
is just a blathering of old platitudes. Never addressed the real cause of AIDS. He'a like Clinton
a triangulator, above the fray.
He's just another empty suit given closely scripted
lines.

A better question might be do we want somebody in the White House who's only qualification for the job is that he beat Alan Keyes?

I saw that jackass last night on Leno. Taylor Hicks was on after him. Much more entertaining. And I would vote for him before Obama too.

So what's so unique and different about AIDS? The size of the injection site?
