Are there many people here or in the world, that do not know who he is, and really care very much what color he is? PLEASE STOP , for goodness sake. He said,we are all just AMERICANS!! didnt you hear that. So let us not refer to others by nothing more than their names and address, not their color, their fathers name, or where he came from or lives!

When is a good time and how can you politely say,"Please, the party is over! Please go home!!!" Can you relay the message to President W Bush ( but now lately it needs to be sent to Sarah Palin). "Enough is enough. The Party is over, Please go home!!" Anderson, Have you ever had a New Years Eve party where a guest that slept over is still there on January 2nd or 3rd?

This was resolved during the vetting process that Hilary went through before she was offered the job. I think the Clintons have done everything they were asked to do and more and done it graciously - but there is a point where it gets to be too much. How would you like it if your spouse's employer tried to tell you what you could or couldn't do with your business? I bet not much.

Obama made a big point about not accepting lobbyists into his campaign, or lobbyist donations. How is this different? It's paying for influence pure and simple. Regarding Geithner, he should just withdraw his name. His 'common mistake' was getting caught. Yes Palin definitelty get shafted by the MSM. I'm sure if Obama had gooten close to the same scrutiny he would not be President-elect today. However, Palin needs to go into stealth mode for a while.

There is no way that their union involves that brand of reciprocation. Clinton thinks on her own and has proven that in the past.
