A lot of unnecessary Obama hate here, there and everywhere i see.. wow.. it was just a phone call, my cousin who was over-sea's and returned has received cards and other crap from the President, that stuff just don't get put in the news because it's almost a "MUST" that a President acknowledges to Veterans and on-duty soldiers.

This was blasted, highlighted, magnified and spotlighted by Fox and other Right media outlets because it was the President connecting with Vick and Vick being hated by all the animal lovers, fake Christians who go to church and taught to forgive but think that only applies to "certain people" and people who just feel like hating him for a variety of other reasons it add's lil extra flare for people to chew on, now people are going to assume Obama don't care about the dogs and condone it because of this phone call when the whole idea of this was to show people can make a turn around and it should be used an example of second chances, forgiveness and turn-arounds..
Or we can all listen to this Carlson dude and just kill dog ring killers,
well he's calling for only Vick but there were a few other larger dog ring operators shut down but no where near high profile as this and no one is calling for their heads.. odd.

As we get close to the end of the year 2011 get ready for them to nit pick him apart from the company that he buys his hair brush from to the flea repellent they use to the amount of sugars he likes in his coffee..


However Rothlisberger has two cases rape and everybody just kinda put their finger on their lips about it, America....




I guess Sarah Palin is no brainer (literally) to some in 2012..

Sorry SW, I hate Vick. Period. Therefore any one associated with him draws my same ire. Don't give a dam if the pope calls him, won't change my feelings. I don't pretend to forgive, God does that. And by the way, I hate Rothlisraper as well and I'm always the loudest anti-Steeler fan reminding everyone what his true colors are.

Obama should call and thank Goodell. He's the one who allowed Vick the chance to redeem himself...

I forgive Vick but being given praise for doing what he should have done in the first place which is being a law abiding citizen is not worthy of a Presidential phone call. A Federal crime is a serious matter, so serious in fact that in some states your voting rights, serving on a jury, hunting, and even owning land can be revoked. It's called forgiveness, but with prejudice. You see, he's forgiven yes, he did his time, but the Federal government will always frown upon him no matter what he does. That's what prejudice is all about.

it's still the dept of corrections...we're to assume he has been rehabilitated and "corrected"...otherwise we shouldn't have faith in our system (which may or may not be the case...). regardless...i'm still kinda torn on the issue of vick...but who cares if obama called him.

Beastmode

I care because there are too many good, hard working, honest, caring people in this country that should have received that phone call.

As I stated, the Federal Government still regards Vick with prejudice.
For the highest held public office in this country to go out of his way to praise a criminal for being "good" is piss poor leadership.

If you are still on a fence then ask yourself, who deserves the call Vick, or, the person in charge of taking care and rehabilitating his dogs.
