Excellent description, IMO.

You know, some of this stuff can be argued until the cows come home as
both the email and Snopes can be right on some things.
For example, the argument as to the origin of Obama's name.  Is it
Swahili as BO claims, or is it Arabic as his detractors claim?

It can actually be both.  The word Swahili comes from the Arabic word
for 'coast'.
The word in English for the appendage on your hand is 'finger'.  Guess
what, the word in German for that is 'finger'.  Is 'finger' English or
German?  You can make a case for both.  Linguistically, you look to the
root and trace it back and that points to it being more German..
The detractors are looking at the word origin; supporters are looking at
the word use.  I doubt you will find anyone willing to argue that finger
is not an English word.

Point is, that is you look at the arguements in the email, many  of the
facts can be twisted either way.  Obama does support Odinga, but only
Odinga claims he is Obama's cousin...since Obama's father was from the
same tribe as Odinga, perhaps there are some shared ancestors, but it is
not first cousins as the email implies.(IMO, the word cousin alone
implies first cousin).  Odinga is Anglican and pro-Western, but
supposedly made a deal that if he is elected Muslims will be held
accountable under Sharia law.  So IF what I wrote above is true, from my
own research which may or may not be true, you could make a case that
Obama supports Sharia AND you could make a case that Obama supports
pro-Western democracies.

I am not defending either..just making a point that the truth might lie
somewhere in the middle.

Akka B, voting third party this year, as usual

Gotta test you here Ray; You are 50% home; you wrote: "The one requirement I 
would have is that he loved her".  What if its not "he", but, is instead, 
"she" ?  This is where open-mindedness, and love, and family  gets tricky.  
You need not reply.  bobf

differs from my own.

I would have no problem with my daughter getting married to someone 
whose skin color differed from hers (and mine).  The one requirement I 
would have is that he loved her, and would treat her well.  I would 
have the same requirement for ANY potential beau.

With all the Republicans have done and are still
doing (the $85b bailout, how much have the
Republicans spent on 'welfare' in the last two
terms? Talk about corporate welfare!) why are
some so against the Democratic candidate?
