What in the world is going on? It is a real shame when a man of Obama's caliber and status can't get any respect. What will it take? After listening to Governor Palin last night it is becoming more and more clear that we are still so very divided.
Barack Obama is not the grocery store clerk who is fighting for fair pay and equal treatment. He has worked really hard to achieve his accomplishments and he earned his seat in the Senate. I am certain he received and receives much opposition, yet and still he does not reduce himself to the standards of those who look down on him, but instead maintains every fruit of the spirit (Galations 5 - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control). No matter what verbal attacks they put upon his name, he never loses his composure nor compromises his integrity.
Now, you have to ask the question. If he is so unqualified, what is all the fuss about? You can't declare him un-equipped and then find a VP as un-equipped {based on McCain's definition} as Senator Obama.
If he is so un-equipped to handle the position as President of the United States, why did the republican party focus on insulting Obama (some down right belittling him) during the entire convention. Each and every speaker attempted to insult and belittle Senator Obama. Unfortunately, for them, it really showed how small minded they all are.
Governor Palin spent the ENTIRE night giving a well versed,structured speech full of sarcastic comments? She spoke nothing about the american people and the economy. Why focus on someone who is an unqualified opponent? Would and unqualified person pose a threat to you?
In this day and time, with our economy suffering so bad, I want to hear something that tells me you are going to do SOMETHING to protect my tax dollars, my child's future in education, my social security and job security; or help eliminate crime and gang violence, terroism, drug distribution and health care coverage. In a word, I guess an unqualified man is a THREAT!

Great Post.
You are on to something Kim. One thing I love about Sen. Obama is this- when the mud is flinging he is so composed. Never loses it. Never swings back. I have alot of respect for Sen.Obama but it went up a notch when the media asked him about Palin's daughter and his comment was something like " Families are not in this. They are OFF LIMITS, and if I hear of anyone in my camp bad mouthing the daughter they will be FIRED"
That my friend is INTEGRITY...That's the next President of the United States
Stay Blessed
