Dennis,

What would you say you do there, (the Strib?)

I’m really looking forward to you insight concerning the GOP convention.

You do know it begins today, right?

As long as we are sticking with the Obama theme, I’ll send you a couple of excerpts from his literary collection.

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.’

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

What is the point of your blog?

I was out of town, and I look at this site today and there are the same comments from last week. Why not let posters select topics if your too lazy to throw out a new theme every couple of days. Your paper is failing miserably. Perhaps you should at least make an effort to post topics worth discussing.
If you’re just hanging on for retirement, shut it down and let someone else make a go of this site.

Tell your editors to wake up. Look at the number of comments on their waste of space site.

Are you people trying to fail?

If so, you’re doing a hell of a job.

What did you think about the bs Rybak was spewing on live television?

Do you recall if you drove to work?

These are things I would remember.
