Pneumonia: Chuck Brown's Condition, Explained
James O'Keefe Fails Again
Obama-mania seems to have hit everyone, celebrities and common folk alike. The beautiful Halle Berry, for whom many men would crawl on their knees, has gone on record saying about the man: "I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear." If that's not mania, I don't know what is.
Fashion-creators of the world have responded to Obama-mania by making great threads for people to express their love. Three young black entrepreneurs have developed uniquely stylish wares. Check them out in the gallery below.
Love hoodies and tees? Barackawear is by far the best Obama line out there. Sister and brother team Lorielle and Brandon Broussard came out with the line in August of last year with $740 of their own money, and have not looked back. Avid supporters of Obama, they have emblazoned their message across a cute variety of clothing, ordering all to "Barack the Vote!" Having sold close to 10,000 pieces so far to customers all over the world, the duo are so sure that Obama will win the election, they are already planning a post-November line. And no, Hillary t-shirts are NOT available.
Sneaker fanatics, I've got just what you need. Painter, muralist and custom sneaker designer Van Monroe has taken the Barack fashion game to the next level with his incredible custom Obama sneakers. Inspired by his aunt to create a Barack design, Van woke up in the middle of the night to makes the shoes in a fit of creativity. Each pair takes an average of five hours to make, and are only available in a limited edition of 50. Van's story is quickly spreading around the Web -- he has taken orders from everywhere from Los Angeles to Australia -- so get moving if you are interested (contact Van via his MySpace page). Ten pairs have been sold to date, and Obama has been sent the original pair.
Are these Barack fashions for you? Who's side are you on in the elections, and which candidate do you think has the best style? Leave your comments now!

O.B. has chosen or been told to ignore his WHITE heritage. The southern mass that gave him victory are not aware that his late mother looked more like Barbara Bush than Shirley ( WHO ) Chishom.
Whether he admits it or not he is a zebra.
50 % white ---- 50 % black
If he switches parties he could be a donkey-zebra

First I want to thank the readers. Even the ones who get me so sturred up. FREE SPEACH you gotta love it. Thanks AOL for providing the space to make this possible.
I am scared of Obama. Well, not him personaly, but what the black population will do. I live near Atlanta and it is a mess! The blacks have complely taken over all aspects considering goverment that slants highly in favor of promoting the "uplifting" of the black race. A major highway was renamed for Cynthia McKenny. She sounds so hateful on TV, she lets it be known that whites are the Devil in this country. Why is she even in office? And the Atlanta Mayor, she sounds good but there are so many major problems in Atlanta. Ever heard of "Freak-Nik"? If you are white, you cannot go or you will be stomped and kicked! The sewage situation, the traffic horror, the History, only black History is important, and it is HIGHLY glorified, much of white History has been removed from schools and sadly much History has been changed or ignored, STD's, murders constantly, runaway taxes, carjacks, tons of black news on TV and in the papers, the Atlanta police and firemen are in constant battle with the Mayor, and the LOUD MUSIC AND NOISE from boomboxes all night and all day, EVERYDAY. Now before you shout racest, I live in a low-income housing project, the only white on this side for 6 yrs. I have many black friends and I am educated in Social Services. Unfortunately, I was disabled by a speeding alcholic. I am in physical rehab, and work with the State Employment Agency on returning to work. I am afraid you people who live where there isn't a large population of blacks have no idea. I see MANY grown men 18 to 45, who just hang out day after day, week after week. No the blacks are not 100% responsible, so they want a free hand-out. And what is this about black men have children but they are not fathers in the real sence of the word. Marriage is out!
I will stop here. You will either get it or not. I think in the future we could have a black president, but not now. How did the blacks around you react when O.J. was set free for his murders? Here it was a 2 week party! Be careful what you wish for!
Now I could say many good things about blacks, but that is not what this post is about. The high school kids can hardly spell. I don't want blacks IN-CHARGE of America. We will spend billions in Africa, to help our brothers and sisters there. No hate mail please, I speak the truth, as I see it. Everyday. Big Jody

Black people were intrigued by the Clintons and would willingly have voted for her if her true colors had not shown up in this process. She has turned people off. She was the clear ftont runner when this all started more than a year ago. People in general are just plain tired of fighting--whether here or abroad!
We're just TIRED!
CHANGE is the best way to move away from the same old same old.
Vote Obama if you're TIRED like me!

What is the deal with using his image? Is it OK for pro Obama shirts
what if you wanted to use for an anti Obama shirt?
I don't know the law, but it would seem anti first amendment to allow one and forbid the other.
Or does copyright even apply to such public figures as presidents and or nominees or potential nominees. It would seem that that kind of makes all of the likenesses public domain?
anyone really know for sure?
I also know that despite having the name Hussein, he does not practice the Muslim religion. did he say what he does practice or follow in regard to religion.
I know enough of Hillary and McCain....who should have won in 2000 if Bush didn't have daddy's friends and their deep pockets. He was better and younger. His age worries me.
so now i need to find out about the unknown so to speak.
Appreciate the help. Besides the first post made me feel like I was reading the 'Warren report' again and all the 'accidents' that happened to the JFK shootings. I recall they had a bean counter figure out the odds and it was astronomical for all of those to have happened naturally.
Just for thought

What a fun website. This is better than reading the Sunday Comics. Obama isn't going to win no matter how many people vote for him. Hillary and her "machine" will mow him down. The best deal Barack can make is agreeing to be her V.P. If he doesn't, she'll take Bill Richarson and the Latino vote, which by the way, is much bigger than the black vote.

Obama Hussein doesn't have a chance in hell of ever becoming the President of the United States. All his supporters are doing is handing over the presidency to John McCain coming November. Let's face it, this country is not ready for a black president nor a woman president. So, all you're doing is wasting your time. But you, the black folk, sure know how to put on a show I give you that.

obama is a muslim. we are fighting islam. wake up white america. what the hell is wrong with you? he does not salute the america flag. he got sworn in with his hand on the quaran not the bible. look at who is backing him; farakan, sharpton, jesse jackson,bin laden,spike lee, oprah. that alone should sway you from this liar and fake piece of crap.a vote for obama is a vote for our enemy. remember 911.
