in which I stated that his political team had recently requested and received Secret Service protections in February of 2008, coinciding with MLK Jr. Day.

I was under this impression due to the stories throughout February regarding the concerns for Barak Obama's safety. I felt that these stories in February were tied to Barak playing the race card.

However, I have since discovered that Barak was actually placed under Secret Service protection since May of 2007 at the request of the Democratic Leadership and the Obama campaign.

Though part of the premise of the answer was true, (that it had been reported that Obama had not been granted Secret Service due to threats), the time frames were inaccurate. Obama did not request Secret Service protections in January and February of this year coinciding with MLK Day, but rather it was requested in May of last year. My answer was inaccurate and has been deleted, but I wanted to correct what I had stated previously.

  3. So has everyone on here! He is a liar. Ask any Illinois veteran that has asked for his help.

  4. That's because the Klansmen are after him.

    They didn't go after Bush or the rest of them because they are honorary members.

  5. So did I! Welcome to the club!!!!!

  6. COOL!

  7. Hey, I did, too.

  8. Obama speaks with 1/2 whitemans forked tongue,, Just

    like days of old,,, say what they want to hear,, then take

    away the carrot,, Obama is a master at the spoken word,

    and terribly poor at following through, When he has to deal;

    with adults he is very unsure of himself,,, He finds that they

    don't buy his preaching,, they want answers and policys

    and how those will be paid for,, he doesnt do that well..
