CrazyCat, that is an ignorant email and obviously written by someone who hates any group that isn't Christian. Why would you want to spread something that was written to incite additional fear rather than educate people?

Shame on you, grrl, for not checking out the veracity of this poisonous email before posting it! Well, I did look into to the matter and can tell everyone that this particular email is both vicious and false. Here is the website: Urban Legends Reference Pages: Who Is Barack Obama?

By the way, the snopes address is a good one to have bookmarked; it is the place to go to when you want to check whether of those urban legends are true or not. :)

I really havent made up my mind yet.

I can how ever tell you who I will not vote for.....

Barack Obama.

Check this out. I got this e-mailed to me this morning.

Who is Barack Obama

If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to

all your contacts...this is very scarey to think of what lies ahead of

us here in our own United States ...better heed this and pray about it

and share it.We checked this out on "snopes.com". It is factual.

Check for yourself.

Who is Barack Obama?

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein

Obama was born in Honolulu , Hawaii , to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr.,

a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel , Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white

ATHIEST from Wichita , Kansas .

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii . When

Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned

to Kenya . His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from

Indonesia.? When Obama was! 6 years old, the family relocated to

Indonesia . Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta . He also

spent two years in a Catholic school.Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a

Muslim. He is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but

that he also attended Catholic school."Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama

returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any

direct influence over his son's education.Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann

Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a

Wahabi school in Jakarta . Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the

Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western

world. Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking

major public office in the United States , Barack Hussein Obama has

joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim

background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he

DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected

presidential candidacy.

The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US

from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest

level - through the President of the United States , one of their own!!!!Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this

man leading our country?...... NOT ME!!!

If something like this were true, the Clinton camp would have outted this and it would have been on Inside Washington, Hardball, Meet the Press and every news program on TV - it wouldn't be the floating around anonymously on the internet and nowhere else... golly.

Internet "Tabloids" sure are interesting. I wonder if they have a team of people sitting around a room without windows with darts and a bunch of misc. garbage up on a board...

Next headline will be "Nostradomous and Britney Spears Elope in Vegas"

Yep, they sure are weird, and "internet tabloids" is an excellent way to describe these e-documents. The Snopes site, the site which I posted in reference to the Obama biz, is a good one to bookmark; it is dedicated to examining urban myths and commentaries of this sort and will advise you whether such claims are true, false or unproven. Snopes will also provide you with all the details as to the why and list the history of the claim. :ranger: It is a really fascinating site. ;)

Thue, but there has been no animosities or derrogatory comments so far on who people have chosen.

I agree that this is probably the reason for the small turnout. It would probably work out fine to just do another one now that is private.

And Tancredo has dropped, so now all 15 candidates will fit on a poll.

Smatyas, will you put up another poll and make it anonymous?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
