The man accusing Barack Obama of using drugs in 1999 and having oral sex with him during a visit Larry Sinclair made to Chicago is willing to take a polygraph test. Whitehouse.com offered Sinclair $10,000 just to take the test. If he passes, then he will make an additional $100,000. After considering the offer, working out the logistics, and weighing the benefits of the polygraph (and the money), Sinclair has agreed to take the polygraph with one of the leading experts in polygraph tests grilling him about his tawdry Obama confessions.
Those who are interested will have the chance to watch Sinclair, live, as he takes his polygraph test, within the next ten days, on Whitehouse.com. The polygraph test could make or break Obama, who mentioned he last took drugs (snorted coke) in his youth. Sinclair claims he repeatedly contacted Obama’s camp and told him he had to come clean about using drugs in 1999. According to Sinclair, Obama used a crack pipe and got him a packet of cocaine, while the two cruised around in a limo, in the Chicago area. Sinclair also performed oral sex on Obama. The time period falls around early November of 1999.
Those who wish to find out more details can check out the website. Meanwhile, the mainstream media has been uncomfortably mum on a subject storming the web and blogs all over it. CNN, for example, is posting on how Clinton and Obama are squabbling over delegates yet not one story has been posted about Sinclair…well at least not where we can find it. In the meantime, those who aren’t computer saavy or get their news offline are still planning to vote for Obama because they are in the dark to the accusations, which could have an impact on the upcoming primaries and caucuses in Ohio, Hawaii, Texas, and Wisconsin.
Is Larry Sinclair telling the truth? Honestly, in the vast majority of public allegations by those who claim they’ve had sex with politicians (whether gay or not) and used drugs with them, the allegations are usually true. That being said, why hasn’t Barack commented on this at all? Instead of sweeping it under the rug, why not deny the rumors if they’re false?
Silence makes a politician look guilty. Anyway, here’s the video. You check it out for yourself and see what you think. Feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts on the matter.
It is my belief that no group or individual benefits from segregation in any way, shape, or form. When I moved to Michigan, I was enlightened by my girlfriend with the practices of the school system she went to for K-12. Being from Ohio, I was mainstreamed into your average, every day high school. Granted, my high school experience was less than stellar, but I have come to realize that this really depends on how much the school is willing to do to assist its students with disabilities.
School systems get money from the government for every disabled student in their system. This means that every year, my school received money from the government to provide services that I needed such as a P.A. (personal assistant). A P.A. is used to assist with getting books from a locker or book bag, helping the student get their lunch, getting out all necessary supplies so the student is ready for class, and for some disabled people this may include having someone to write work while the student dictates what needs to be written.
My school was cheap and/or greedy. They took the money and left me to my own devices. I have friends throughout Ohio who did benefit from a caring school system that saw their needs were met and had a P.A. or whatever other services they might need. Regardless, being mainstreamed did help me in some way. I knew what it was like to interact with people not in wheelchairs. I dealt with discrimination and misunderstanding early on, and I learned to fight for my needs and rights as a human being because nothing was ever handed to me on a silver platter or given to me to pacify me.

Normally, I am not one to enter political discussions of any nature. Like everyone else I do have my thoughts and beliefs, but I have learned the cardinal rule of conversations – do not include the discussion of religion or politics when speaking with co-workers and friends.
My beliefs have ended more than one friendship, even as far back as high school, so I’ve learned to keep my opinions more subdued in conversation and more open in blogs and columns like this one.
However, the other day, my boyfriend, who is usually the cause for the political angst that plagues me, was telling me about an article he read. On a blog there was an elegant post about the issues with Israel and Hezbollah. Said boyfriend commented on the post by saying that he felt that the issues were unimportant and that killing children for any reason was wrong. He stated, and I agree, that it was murder.
Of course, as one person comments on a blog, 100 comments follow telling that person why they are wrong. The comment that struck me as the most interesting was, “Do not confuse killing with murder”.
Is there a difference? It was something that I asked myself for quite some time before choosing to write this. I know that I am not alone in my observations. These same issues have bothered many others for far too long. However, it was not a Fundamentalist Christian who made this comment. It was a person living in Israel. It only took a small amount of research to see that the fundamentalist Christians were on the side of Israel and the writing of this article was inevitable.
In the quest to determine the difference between killing and murder I had to ask myself only one question: How do you explain to the Lebanese mother that watched her children being pieced back together that her loss was an acceptable loss? I couldn’t come up with an answer.
I feel like Dane Cook when I say, “Naughty, Naughty Edwards”. Ok, so Edwards isn’t as cool as Kool Aid Man (OHHH Yeah!), but he still kind of sucks for embellishing how well he did in the Iowa Caucus. Does anyone even consider Iowa to be an important state? He barely beat Clinton in votes and in terms of percentage points, he didn’t even beat her by 1% of the vote!
Don’t you just hate it when politicians run their fat little mouths and then get called upon (by Wolf Blitzer no less!) for their stupidity?! I actually think it is kind of funny and here’s hoping Edwards gets shafted in New Hampshire. In this case, I think Hillary needs the last laugh!
“Are you a racist?” It is a question that most of us find uncomfortable at best. And yet, there are those times in the human culture that warrant this question such as this one from Bill O’Reilly’s September 19 radio show:
“You know, I was up in Harlem a few weeks ago, and I actually had dinner with Al Sharpton, who is a very, very interesting guy. And he comes on The Factor a lot, and then I treated him to dinner, because he’s made himself available to us, and I felt that I wanted to take him up there. And we went to Sylvia’s, a very famous restaurant in Harlem. I had a great time, and all the people up there are tremendously respectful.“
“They all watch The Factor. You know, when Sharpton and I walked in, it was like a big commotion and everything, but everybody was very nice. And I couldn’t get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia’s restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it’s run by Blacks, primarily Black patronship. It was the same, and that’s really what this society’s all about now here in the U.S.A. There’s no difference.”
“There’s no difference. There may be a cultural entertainment — people may gravitate toward different cultural entertainment, but you go down to Little Italy, and you’re gonna have that. It has nothing to do with the color of anybody’s skin.”
