Sorry if I feel that a future president should at least have associates that AREN'T domestic terrorists, hate mongers, etc... There are NO honest politicians or clean ones but we can make decisions based on how dirty they are. The last damn thing we need in the White House is somebody that's going to invite these type for a visit. Imagine, the same person that tried to bomb the White House now stopping in for a howdy? You can bet your ass come November people will be thinking the same about the Rev. Wright preaching "God Damn America" from the White House lawn.

No it's not...but I guess we found out that Obama is a lousy actor; we already knew that about Clinton.

Have a good one!:s4:
