President Barack Obama’s on-line forum: text, etc.

Posted on March 26, 2009 by kwilder

KW: I cringe to say Obama’s name here. Because if I am not angry enough, I get told that I am kissing up to our duopolist President. So, I guess I will say up front: I would never vote for Obama. He is escalating the War in Afghanistan, and I cannot tolerate that. That said. […]

President Obama and the Special Olympics

Posted on March 20, 2009 by kwilder

You may have heard that, on the Jay Leno Show, President Barack Obama made a joke about the Special Olympics. President Obama was describing his own bowling, and in a remark meant to be humble and self-deprecating, he said, “It was like Special Olympics or something.” I am very heartened to see that people noticed […]

If you are a patriot…boycott the NY Post!

Posted on February 19, 2009 by kwilder

Update: Friday morning, Feb 20th. After first asserting it had done nothing wrong, the NY Post finally made a half-hearted apology last night.

Thank goodness I did not vote for Obama. I feel sorry for all the people who thought he was a peace candidate.
