Only hard-core cons like Dick... Obama and team have been masterful in encouraging Liimbaugh and Cheney to be taken seriously as the spokesmen for the right. Nobody can stand them except the few who love them.
You should have seen me in the 1960's, with hair down to the middle of my back. Today, there's not much hair to grow. We all change. Some, like Barack, change and grow. Those photos are nothing to be ashamed of. Were I a different person, I would be ashamed not to have had a life as a young man full of experimentation, excitement, learning about everything. Most young people experience that, as I did. I suspect that even basso lived another life then, before he became brainwashed by Bush, terror, and the clique surrounding the former president. Those who didn't, those who played it safe, tend to be rather dull. You continue to try and paint a picture of the Obama of today that is a false one. Yet even George Bush led a wild life as a young man, and far wilder than Obama, by the accounts I've read. Interesting that Barack excelled in academia, and George just got by... both becoming President. One became the living embodiment of the Peter Principal, the other the living embodiment of a man breaking the chains of prejudice and 200 years of oppression. Two men, both making it to the highest office in the land. Two men, one a failure, the child of privilege, and one a symbol of how intelligence and hard work can bring the pinnacle of success. And you post pictures. There's something rather sad about that, at least to me.
