A 2nd on the thanks and constant updates. But now—right after I said I hadn’t had problems with firefox, I am having problems. Half the vids are just black squares. hmmmmmm. This is the first time I’ve had any kind of prob here.
Night guys, sleep tight and rest well! I’ve been keeping a low profile because I don’t know WHAT my computer’s been up to over the last day or so. Very odd behaviour, indeed, so I’ve been almost afraid to attempt to say much, though I’ve been reading inbetween shutdowns. Here’s an interesting analysis of Prez O sent in by an Andrew Sullivan reader -
Great insight and truth in that analysis. He understands Obama. Obama’s critics could learn a thing or two here. They are always so far off base in their attempts to describe Obama.
This is a great article – the TCK model is also referred to as a “global nomad” in some circles, or “international citizen”. Someone who has travelled as a child, is easily adaptable, and really comfortable in many situations and circumstances – and usually broad-minded or able to argue their positions well. Really interesting article.
Loved that article. Thanks so much for posting it. I believe one of the reasons people love him is because he doesn’t exclude anyone unless they exclude themselves. Someone once told me they didn’t like the President because he was a “world citizen” and I replied that is exactly why I love him.
Cornell West is a crazy jealous black man. He is a pompous azz who thinks he is more important than President Obama. He thinks that our President should consult him about AA matters. I do not have any respect for Cornell West. I just wish he would go away with ignorant self. He has taken this personally and he needs a mental check.
Night Chips, thanks for all you do.

I think the post was done by a visitor to Andrew Sullivan’n site and not by Mr. Sullivan no…?

Good night Chips and TOD family. I’ll stay up and catch up on reading n commenting.
Good article except he give Cornel West too much credit.
Thank you Chipsticks for all you do for us.
