: Bleh, who cares. I like the idea of Cappuccinos but 4 bucks for a cup of coffee is ridiculous.The stupid part i that McDonalds is trying to follow this model with it's McCafe deal. Hey, McDs, looks tasty but it's too pricey for a bit of flavor added mostly hot water. Maybe they should halve all of their prices and see if they can drum up a new customer base.

: According to a NYTIMES article, by JannyScott, when Obama arrived in the Illinois Senate as a brand new senator, he was greeted with taunts, name calling by his African American colleagues. Obama's African American colleagues, held it against him, that he was a graduate of Harvard and that he was of mixed race, he wasn't black enough. They said so to his face. It got so bad, that a shoving match ensued between Obama and one of the principal agitators. Stanley Crouch piece in the NY Daily News "Obama isn't black like me illustrates the hostility that African Americans in positions of power and influence within our society had towards Obama. What about Jesse Jackson's rude comment, "I want to cut his nuts off"? Jesse Jackson may have been crying when Obama finally made it, but were those tears of joy or rage, because he knows he could never get it. Obama is not an African American in the traditional sense. There is no Public School in any ghetto that he attended anywhere in the urban centers of the USA. His formative years were spent attending school in Indonesia. He speaks well, eloquently, in perfect command of the English language. African Americans are coming out of the woodwork, rallying around the Obama flagpole, now, but a lot of them didn't do so in the beginning. He owes more to the whites in the Senate that were his friends than the blacks that turned their backs on him. I like respect and like Obama a lot. I have tremendous respect, admiration for Barack Hussein Obama. I have contempt for those African Americans that in their own words "gave Obama hell" when he first arrived in the Illinois Senate, because he wasn't black enough, in their opinion. They are jumping all over him now, that he won. Add something
