LIMITED ACCESS

Monday was a day that provided limited access for Linden to the various news sources such as print, television, radio and the internet and has resulted in this posting not being as well thought out as he would prefer.

A great portion of the news of the coverage which is of interest to Linden, and surely you, centers on the discussions Rick Warren had with McCain and Obama. Several expressed the belief that this interview was one of the most meaningful ones of the current race.

McCain appeared to present himself quite well and Obama stuttered his way to a poor showing. How did this guy ever develop the reputation of being a good speaker? He may be a good reader but he certainly is not very good as expressing himself when called to think on his feet!

Two areas of Obama’s failure registered with Linden. Surely there would have been more had he (Linden) had more research time. (1.) Saying that deciding when life begins is “above his pay grade” causes one to believe that his current pay grade may well be too high and (2.) saying that he would not have nominated Clarence Thomas or Antonin Scalia and possibly not John Roberts to the Supreme Court indicates that he has little regard for our constitution.

At one time, Linden firmly believed that the democrats could not find a less distinguished candidate than Jesse Jackson. Then, they found Al Sharpton. Now, the have a candidate in Obama that makes those two look pretty good. God save America!
