And McNugget means "small semi-chicken batter-coated and fried". But does that mean it reflects on the courage and wholesomeness of anyone bearing that name?

mmmmm... McNuggets...

Perhaps a new thread ought to be started; How 'bout calling it "Who is Barack Obama?" It would be great, discussing his plans, and policies, for being POTUS, instead of this one, talking about peoples middle names.

Ronald Mc Donald; anyone know his middle name?

mmmmm... McNuggets...

Simon Malley, an Egytian-born Jew who rejected his faith and embraced Marxism, was the father of Robert and a crusader for the Palestinians and their terrorist leader, Yassir Arafat. As a frequent guest of the Malleys, Arafat was the beneficiary of much of Simon Malley’s writing and publishing efforts funded, according to the French government, by the communist Soviet Union.

Visiting the sins of the father upon the son would be an unfair burden were it not for the career chosen by young Robert. As National Security Council Director for Near East and South Asian Affairs during the Clinton administration and Special Assistant to the President for Arab-Israeli Affairs, Robert Malley was present during the talks at Camp David, which failed, causing great embarassment for the Clinton White House. Robert Malley is now a key adviser to the campaign of presidential candidate, Barack Obama.

Alone among the American and Israeli participants, Malley has publicly blamed the failure squarely upon Israel. A series of articles written with Palestinian adviser and cohort of Arafat, Hussein Agha, have sought to portray Israel as an imperialistic occupier of “colonies”, a word use he coined to describe disputed lands in the West Bank and Gaza. In an interview with the Financial Times, an unnamed adviser (reputed to be Malley) reveals the political strategy he advocates for Barack Obama:

WorldnetDaily is an extremely unreliable source of information. It is difficult for me not to laugh anytime anyone here uses it as a reference, but this is not shocking considering the low level of factual knowledge I have seen demonstrated here by a considerable number of Current Events participants.

If I have missed it, which is possible since things move fast, am still looking for a list of reasons to vote for Obama.

If I thought you were sincere in that request, I might be inclined to reply. However, you have already indicated you don't like any of the remaining three candidates...perhaps you would like to make an argument for a write in?

One person answered rather well in words as to why in another thread, though I think they are way off base and fooled.

As to a write in? If asked I will not run. If elected I will not serve. (-:

Yes, I saw you diasected their reply - line by line.

..actually, who are you supporting for President (since you are not happy with McCain, Clinton or Obama)? It seems only fair that you go on record...(that is if you're going to scrutinize every one else :)

What I'm going to say may offend or upset some Crosswalkers, but I will say it anyway because frankly, way too many people here are not very well informed and are therefore unable to discern good from bad journalism, factual information from balderdash and nonsense.

WorldnetDaily is an extremely unreliable source of information. It is difficult for me not to laugh anytime anyone here uses it as a reference, but this is not shocking considering the low level of factual knowledge I have seen demonstrated here by a considerable number of Current Events participants.

The fact that some here were going up in arms because Barack Obama's middle name is "Hussein" - while utterly ignoring and not wanting to learn that "Hussein" is a word whose root means "good" (not to mention the fact that "Barak" appears in the Old Testament repeatedly and that it means "blessing") - or, the fact that "Barack Hussein" is merely a composite SEMITIC name, not unlike other SEMITIC names such as Omar (from Umar) Bradley, or Benjamin (from Binyamin), and others, is proof.

Now, having gotten that out of the way, I find it pathetic that 3 State Department contractors looked at Barack Obama's passport record without authorization. Barack Obama is an American citizen and his privacy deserves to be respected and protected no less than the privacy of George W. Bush, of Dick Cheney, of any elected official, of any military staff, of any average citizen in any village, town, or city in any state of the Union. This is shameful. I wonder how it'd be like if this had occurred to John McCain (or to Mitt Romney or to Mike Huckabee, were either one of these two in McCain's place) .

Pat, all 3 candidates records were looked at, there is no story to it about just Obama

quote:

"The companies that provided the contractors were The Analysis Corp. and Stanley Inc. Stanley is a Virginia-based company that earlier this week won a five-year, $570-million government contract extension to support passport services.

According to agency officials, the first Stanley employee improperly accessed Obama's records on Jan. 9 and was fired within days. The second contractor, employed by The Analysis Corp., pried into similar records on Feb. 21 but was not terminated. The third incident involved another Stanley employee and was swiftly fired.

It was not immediately clear why the contractor with The Analysis Corp. had not been fired, while the two Stanley consultants had.

Department spokesman Sean McCormack said Friday that a separate search conducted after the Obama revelation showed that workers also had snooped on McCain and Clinton.

The worker who had been reprimanded in the Obama incident had also reviewed McCain's records earlier this year, McCormack said. While the employee has not been fired, that person no longer has access to passport files, he said.

I can assure you that person's going to be at the top of the list of the inspector general when they talk to people, and we are currently reviewing our (disciplinary) options with respect to that person," McCormack said.

In Clinton's case, someone accessed her file last summer as part of a training session involving another State Department worker. McCormack said the violation was immediately recognized and the person was admonished. That person was not involved in the later incidents, meaning four people were involved in all."

This is totally crazy!! The sad things is that I am so burnt out on politics and have such a distrust for the government, media and stupid people of this country as well. I don't believe a single word I hear about any of the presidential candidates whether its positive or negative. You can't believe ANYTHING you hear, read or see. It's ridiculous.
I don't even want to vote now.

Some supporters of Obama have said that he will try to reduce the # of abortions in this country.

I'm not attacking Obama or those people here, but I'm curious as to how he will to that? Especially since he opposed the Partial-Birth abortion ban act and voted against Roberts and Alito?
