‘Mutts like me’ - Obama shows ease discussing race

‘Mutts like me’ - Obama shows ease discussing race

WASHINGTON (AP) - It popped out casually, a throwaway line as he talked to reporters about finding the right puppy for his young daughters.

But with just three offhanded words in his first news conference as president-elect, Barack Obama reminded everyone how thoroughly different his administration - and inevitably, this country - will be.

“Mutts like me.”

By now, almost everyone knows that Obama’s mother was white and father was black, putting him on track to become the nation’s first African-American president. But there was something startling, and telling, about hearing his self-description - particularly in how offhandedly he used it.

The message seemed clear - here is a president who will be quite at ease discussing race, a complex issue as unresolved as it is uncomfortable for many to talk about openly. And at a time when whites in the country are not many years from becoming the minority.

Full Story Here:
‘Mutts like me’ - Obama shows ease discussing race

A *mutt*, a native American and a West Texas Cowboy were in a West Texas beer joint having a *cold one* on a hot West Texas afternoon.

After several *cold ones* the native American became very serious and stood up to declare, “Once, we were many, now we are few, it makes me very sad!”

Not to be outdone, the *mutt* stood up and declared, “Once we wuz few, now we bees many an dat makes me some kind ‘o happy!”

After a few minutes of contemplation the West Texas Cowboy stood up, and being the sage philosopher that ALL West Texas Cowboys are, he drawled, “We ain’t played *cowboys and mutts* yet!”

How did the human race start?

October 23rd, 2008 . by TexasFred
How did the human race start?

A little girl wrote to Sarah Palin and asked: ‘How did the human race start?’

Sarah Palin answered, ‘God made Adam and Eve. They had children; and so was all mankind made.’ 

Two days later the girl wrote to Michelle Obama and asked the same question.

Michelle Obama answered, ‘Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved.’

The confused girl went to her father and said, ‘Dad, how is it possible that Sarah Palin told me the Human race was created by God, and Michelle Obama said they evolved from monkeys.’

The father answered, ‘Well, Dear, it is very simple, Sarah Palin told you about her ancestors and Michelle Obama told you about hers.’
