These are two men who are above negative attack ads. Huckabee had said he would rather lose an election than lose the PRINCIPLES that got him into politics in the first place. McCain has said basically the same thing. If McCain chooses not to pick Huckabee for being a wise, fair minded man who does not see color and does not believe in using negative internet junk against a candidate, then he will turn out to be someone very different than the man he appears to be.......

Interview with Kobe Bryant on local LA radio station this morning.

Last night was a tough defeat. But we're ready to come out in game seven and win the championship. Millions of Laker fans are behind us and with their support there is no way we can lose this series

From time to time, though, he exhibits the positive side of his adherence to a personal code of morality.

We're taking back the Power Of The People. We're shedding both sides of racist and sexist coins, political ties, backroom deals and the whole enchilada.

Hillary Rodham Clinton has come to represent people of all races, colors and just people of plain old common sense who are SICK TO DEATH of being told who they can and cannot hire to represent them in the Oval Office. She represents being stonewalled and fighting back anyway. She is our folk hero, our martyr who was sacraficed by yet another batch of sneaky GOP/Big Media/Obama smokescreens and mirrors.

We're pulling away the wool. We're doing away with protocol. We're doing away with mandated party loyalties. We're voting for the best candidate for a VERY VERY important job this time around.

She's been there before and our aim is to send her back to the Oval Office in November. We are wholly dedicated to what she represents: our last chance of a voice in our own government.

Two sides of THE EXACT SAME RACIST COIN.

Meditate on that for a minute. Both sides discard the core, the individual soul and spirit and acheivements of a person and reduce him/her to a collection of pigmented skin cells and hype surrounding historical perceptions of those skin cells.

The coin eliminates the personal factor, the human element.

I'm sure Huckabee doesn't care much about getting the VP nod for a position he's never going to actually fill.

I said this before, people will be giving Barack Obama a polite “thanks but no thanks” to being asked to sit VP anyway. Losing in the Fall is not good for one's political career.

Barack will be just fine in the “war of politics”. After all, he systematically eliminated four minority progressive candidates in his run for office in Chicago. And in full hubris he steals his persona from the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a true hero who died for his convictions, grit and earned honor representing the plight and hopes for kind treatment of the same minorities Obama clearcutted in his political rise to power. Obama is a cad of the lowest rank. One of those candidates he exterminated, Gha-is Askia, posed no threat to him at all in the polls. He just wanted ALL of them out of the way..

He'll be just fine in the race for presidency. Just fine…
