    I know a guy that keeps saying that Obama sold drugs.

    He wrote in his book that he used drugs when he was young. Does anyone know if he ever admitted he sold drugs or if there's any credible source that says that he sold drugs?

    There isn't. It's a question which critics have raised, however -- sad, but smart politics.

    You may know better than I do. Most of the people I know are conservative in their politics, and many of them have that mindset.

    That said, I have seen some more "liberal" e-mails, but not nearly as many as the "Obama is a closet Muslim" sort of things.
     
  4. More evidence to support my argument.

    Hey that's possible. Have you seen this famous guy out there named Tiger Woods?

    I didn't know O.J. was black until he hired Johnnie Cochran. ::)

    I can think of about 4,000 Americans who have died "suspiciously" under Bush.
     
  9. Yet another example.
    Still waiting for one that is anti-Republican...

    Well since the GOP nomination war is pretty much over you probably won't see one for awhile. The Dems are too busy eating their own.
     
  11. Good point, but I'm saying I've never seen one.
     
  12. We've got a pretty good string of just Obama ones going now.
