It's an article about Valerie Jarrett, one of Barack's closest advisors and friends.

Very good read.

3. And in all seriousness....
.... I believe it is the Vogue article about Valerie where she talks about never, not in the 16 or however many years it's been that she's known him, NEVER heard him yell.

And that was my reason #213 to vote for Barack Obama. :-)

4. Oh Noes!1111!!! Valerie Jarrett was born in Iran!
Just wait until white-wing echo machine latches onto that tidbit; proof he associates with terrorists.

:rofl:

Barack is lucky to have her covering his sixes and keeping him grounded in reality.
