Have Obama's experiences left deep scars that might impair his judgment?
Anyone who has listened to more of Rev. Wright than TV sound-bites has potentially suffered permanent psychic damage. That's why it's a good thing that the media provides only sound-bites. Otherwise we would all be suffering from a mental disorder and, collectively speaking, we would be unfit to vote.

Now, in contrast, consider the Great American John McCain (peace be upon him). It's true that he was a prisoner of war in Vietnam. However, the Great American John McCain (pbuh) wasn't exposed to such language as "G*d D*mn Am*r*c*." No, in fact, the worst that his captors ever said was, "America might in some respects be imperfect." In addition, they once sent the Great American John McCain (pbuh) to bed without supper. Undeniably, these experiences have left scars upon the Great American John McCain (pbuh), but the scars are very small and the Great American John McCain (pbuh) has moved on.

5. Obama's judgment is better than Hillary's
He was against the war when it counted.

16. Actually, that's bit impossible to prove.
He says he gave a speech against the war. Other than a "reenacted recording" of that speech (complete with applause lines edited) there is not ONE independent source that cooroborates this supposed speech.

Not one.

12. A philandering husband that disrespected the marriage
and hurt the nation would leave deeper scars, one would think.

20. Probably not.
In fact, there's a good chance that President H. Clinton will offer a pleasant and well-paying job in the White House to "that woman." You know, get her where it's possible to keep an eye on her.

CLINTON IS THE ONE THAT IS WARPED...
