It's The Final Countdown!


Today is monumental.

Obama gets inaugurated and I start my 2nd and final semester at Columbia University. They are having events all over campus to celebrate the new presidency. I have to say, even though I didn't vote for Obama, I am excited about him going into office.

My class for today has been shortened to one hour. The class is called "Religion, Media and Anthropology". I was told that I may not be able to take it because too many Anthropology students have signed up. So I wrote the professor saying that this subject matter is vital to my thesis research, so hopefully they will let me stay in the class.

Obama. A Terrorist and a Racist.

Below are a few lines from Obama's books; In his words!

From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.'

From Dreams of My Father : 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'

And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!

From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
