American Idols

Is MSNBC really asking debate viewers to pick a winner via text? Press 1 for Hillary Clinton, press 2 for Barack Obama ...

Yup. If it wasnt bad enough, it just gets stranger, doesnt it?

20 debates and the last one finally has some meat behind it with issues and differences being discussed and MSNBC actually wants to turn it into American Idol.

Barack the Prophet?
Something unusal happen in last nights debate regarding the use of the word sermon. Curious that Barack would use the term instead of a talk or a speech. Thoughts?

"When I was -- just last point I would make -- when I was giving -- had the honor of giving a sermon at Ebenezer Baptist Church in conjunction with Martin Luther King's birthday in front of a large African-American audience I specifically spoke out against anti- Semitism within the African-American community, and that's what gives people confidence that I will continue to do that when I'm president of United States"

Definition Wikepedia
A sermon is an oration by a prophet or member of the clergy. Sermons address a Biblical, theological, or religious topic, usually expounding on a type of belief or law within both past and present contexts

Bill - Don't be ridiculous. If that's the kind of stuff you can bring up against Obama, that when he is asked to speak behind a pulpit to a religious congregation he calls it a sermon, then you have nothing.

Open letter to Nathan Sharanskiy

Dear Mr. Sharanskiy - you are true hero to the jewish people. I respect you a lot. I'm writing you this letter because I feel that this is a critical time in the career of Dmitriy Salita who is being sabbotaged by antisemitic forces in boxing. I feel it's a time for you as well as other jewish leaders and activist take a look at what's going - and how discriminated is Dmitriy Salita by antisemitic forces in boxing.
I hope that free world, media and all good people will respond and stop boycote and conspiracy against Dmitriy Salita. Amen.
