[Vision2020] Barack Obama's Muslim Childhood

Please give one example.

The caliber, content and style differentials between his two books is
too great for him to have written Dreams.

One vessel — a seafaring maiden launched upon an ocean of dreams. The
other — a rubby dingy floating adrift in an audacious pond of hope.

If Ayers wrote Dreams — as all the evidence indicates — then the only
view it reflects is Obama's close bond with Ayers. Unfortunately, not
one page of Dreams reflects this view in black and white.

I have not judged the package based on soundbites and you cannot give
one example to prove this assertion unless you fall back on the old
"it's my experience" argument which, by the way, is your vicious
circle that you cannot break out of.

I saw all I need to see of Wright when his son — Barack Obama — threw
him overboard without a life vest or life boat, abandoning him to
drown in a watery abyss of anti-Semite America-hating racism.

If jettisoning Wright was good enough for Obama, it's good enough for me.

This is rich.

You understand the package through your emotions and on what basis do
you declare that I never looked beyond the circumstantial?

You're the one who said you don't care about his background after I
pressed it on you.

I wish I was as thorough as you.

I defy you to defend your last sentence with real proof — which does
not include your feelings or experiences.
