CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR OBAMA QUESTIONS LEGALITY OF SLAVERY BAN
August 20, 2008
This week, Barack Obama's challenge is to select a running mate who's young, hip, and whose accomplishments in life don't overshadow Obama's. Allow me to suggest Kevin Federline.
The only thing we can be sure of is that Obama will choose someone who is the polar opposite of all his advisers until now. In other words, it will be a very, very white male who was probably proud of his country even before being chosen as Obama's running mate.
Obama's got a lot of ground to make up following that performance last weekend at the Saddleback presidential forum with pastor Rick Warren.
After seeing Obama defend infanticide with the glib excuse that the question of when life begins is above his "pay-grade," Rev. Jeremiah Wright announced that although he's known Obama for 30 years, he only recently became aware of how extreme the senator's viewpoints were. Wright, after all, has his reputation to consider.
Network heads responded by dashing off an urgent memo: During the main presidential debates this fall, ask NO questions about abortion, ethics or evil! Morality isn't the Democrats' forte.
Obama's defenders spin his abominable performance in the Saddleback forum by saying he's just too smart to give a straight answer. As Rick Warren charitably described Obama's debate performance: "He likes to nuance things ... He's a constitutional attorney." The constitutional lawyer "does nuance," as Bill Maher said on "Larry King Live," "and you saw how well that goes over with the Rick Warren people."
If that's Obama's excuse, he ought to know a few basics about the Constitution.
Did the big constitutional lawyer whose "nuance" is too sophisticated for Rick Warren's audience see the letter his wife sent out on his behalf in 2004? Michelle Obama denounced a federal law banning partial-birth abortion, writing that "this ban on a legitimate medical procedure is clearly unconstitutional." Clearly!
The Supreme Court later found the law not "unconstitutional," but "constitutional" -- which I believe may have been the precise moment when Michelle Obama realized just how ashamed she had always been of her country.
But most stunningly, when Warren asked Obama if he supported a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman, Obama said he did not "because historically -- because historically, we have not defined marriage in our Constitution."

So true. These socialists are on the road to Marxism which is paved with moral relativists and the likes of the MSM and their Oh Boy Obama.
Ann Coulter: Do we know for a fact Barack Obama has read the Constitution?MORE classic Ann...Obama's Facebook profile:
"I'm pro-infanticide, I love sunsets, and I don't get the 13th Amendment!"
Nice flat stomach.
Dayyyyummmm....the woman’s got skillls....mad skills!
>>Being a feminist is all about being a victim. Being an armed woman is all about not being a victim.>>
Some of the sweetest, most humble women I know carry a .22 or .38 somewhere concealed. What is it about confidence in safety (not arrogance or pride) that is sooooooooooo sexy about an armed woman that lacks the need to try and be like a man?
Damn. That woman is fine.
Obama’s position on taxation is tantamount to slavery, with him playing the role of the abusive slave master.
>>Damn. That woman is fine.>>
Hey, you’re 55, you’re not supposed to respond like that to a woman showing skin! What’s wrong with you , you big oaf? Can’t you control your animal instinct when some woman just uses fashion sense?
/sarcasm

I have constructive news for your point. I pay half of my income to various forms of US government, including federal, state, county and local, fuel, sales and license. That means half of my earnings go to pay for politics, when all I really want from the government is to provide a national defense, interstate highways and to get out of my life.
Voting for Ron Paul. Conscience clear, no more holding my nose at the polls.
Ann must be a gym rat. You don’t get and keep a body like that unless you train on a regular basis.
"... Well, I think that whether you're looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade. But let me just speak more generally about the issue of slavery because this is something obviously the country wrestles with ..."
55? LOL I’m 26 hahaha
