      <![CDATA[My Latvian family are proud supporters of Obama - Howard University, an historically black college, was one of a few to accept women dentist and physician dps in their programs in the 1950s.  My dad was rescued by four African American GIs and he always told me that the expression "melns ka velns" was wrong - that those four men were angels.
    Turies, Obama!

      <![CDATA[Laima, I'd write this in Latvian but then others wouldn't understand it, so let's stay in English except for one word:  KAUNS! This means "shame on you."  Shame on you for not understanding, after all these years, that the only way to keep this country great is to encourage exactly the kind of open minded discourse promoted by Obama and the "radical liberals" you mock so intolerantly. It's clear that you still don't understand that in the USA, "loyal" means supporting our open democracy.  And lighten up ... the Cold War is OVER!
