Paula Perrotta's Blog

shockhazard, I'm not sure that it aired, but Charles did ask him how he thought they were going and he didn't quantify it in numbers, but I believe he is pretty confident, but emphasized that he had not won yet, and suggested that Hilary won't back down anytime soon.

Great picture of you and Jacko O'Sama, the first American flag hating, war bashing, muslim, white/black Negro that will find himself up against John McCain for the Presidency of this country.

Keep that picture close to your heart Paula, for alot of us do not.

Paula, people can be cruel on this board, hiding behind a computer...just like the cup of chocolate pudding I am eating now (ironically), you'll develop a thick skin working in news. Great pictures and a well written piece! Keep up the good work, and we're lucky to have you on our team. Come say HI to me in the weather office next time :)

Who's being cruel? Or is it that you don't agree with someone's post and you fine that cruel? I don't know........Paula, I bet that was a great experience for you and you should cherish it. I personally don't care for Obama and his policies that's just my opinion and hopefully I wasn't cruel for expressing that? I do agree with you, he's a good speaker and that's about as far as it goes with me. I enjoyed reading your blog and it seems you're having fun doing what you're doing.

Justin if you are refering to me and my post about who cares it was not being mean i was asking who cares. This is a young person who is blogging about poltics and having just met a polticain is in awe of that person. it is no different that meeting a movie star as you get old you are not in awe of people anymore they are no different than you.

I aksed who cares? because I really do not care about Obama, Hillery or MClame for that matter.If these 3 are the best we can do God help us.

As far as getting thick skin, Justin thats great advise. Today our kids are never told that life is hard. We cannot even keep score as a coach of a little league team in a fear if they loose the kids will be hurt.. Well guess what that is life and how it goes. SO learning to understand that not all people are going to agree with you or even want to hear you is something everyone needs to learn

Again i was not being mean i was asking a question to everyone including this poster..

JUstin one more point i do not think anyone is hiding behind a computer. see Justin we are from a generation before yours and PC is something most of us do not beleive in. If I was to be in person with this story i would say the samething. You seem to think because we will disagree and say why and not be politically correct we are computer rambos, sadly your worng and what you have been taugh is wrong. Like Don Imas you too have to watch everything you say it could be cause for your firing. I say so what to Don Imus too who cares he said what he said so what, but to go after people for their thoughts or ideas is the only thing your generation has seen. it knows not of sicks and stones... Pc has been forced upon us and God help us if you slip up and say the wrong thing and offend someone.

Thick skin is what America used to have before the frontal assult by liberalism.

hey get this obama when to a church that spews hate and some want to make this man president go figure!

Thanks for all your comments (good or bad), but I think people are missing the point of this blog post.
I wrote this thread with the intent to express two things: 1. my excitement about my internship and doing what I like ; 2. my honor in meeting a person that could be the next president of the United States.
I don't even vote in this country so, don't worry about me being biased. My opinion of Mr. Obama for the purposes of this blog post were solely based on his character as a PERSON, not as a presidential candidate. I was just stating, ideologies aside, that he was an extremely polite and courteous person. I didn't want to make a political statement out of this, or talk about speculations in the media. There has been a lot of trash being talked about all three candidates. You make the choice on what you want to believe or not. I decided to go in there and make my decision based on my own impressions, not someone else's. Of course, I'm not foolish to believe that Mr. Obama was being 100% true in all of his promises (we are in an election year after all and everybody is making a lot of promises they know they won't be able to follow through). I know he is not a saint, but I also know Hilary and McCain aren't either.
I still would respect all 3 of them if they were respectful of me... and Mr. Obama was.

To wrap this up, I also think that if you really didn't care, you wouldn't even read the post, let alone reply 3 or 4 times to this thread. Let's please keep this space peaceful and respect other people's opinions.

And don't forget she is a hot Brazilian woman. I want to party with you next Carnival. And great writing!

Paula,

I guess since your new to this we all post and they evolve into things we never inteded.

Mr Obama charactor comes in to questions on many fronts but hishate towards his own nation and he pasters view which i am sorry he cannot be seperated from of white people.

I have met presidents and movie and sports stars as well and i will tell you as you go the awe will fade. But you posted and we repsond many of us do not see this man in the same eyes you look thru. So pardon me if i seem a but cold to your post but these are the facts as i am many others see them.

Good luck with your internship are you here on a student visa?

now this begs another question, but it is for another time..

Watch out for Justin he may take a liking to you!
