Liberals apparently think they are lords of creation
Your realize I’m already losing sleep over this election?
I might as well jump out of a window!
Once more, children, with feeling!
Get it right, or stay home on election day!
GRRR!
AKA marxism. Not even european socialism gives you all of this.
Leftie oath
I shed allegiance to the flag
One nation under Obama
with liberty and justice
for the liberals only
and tax hikes for everyone else.
hey they forgot to add a Ferrari for every ameriKKKan… (wright way of spelling)
The only nations who can claim full employment a dictatorships.
Exactly – there is no God other than them. Wisdom and fairness lives in the hearts of all liberals. Who can question them?
I come from pioneer stock.
I grew up reading novels about tough American drive and spirit.
I watched Fess Parker save himself and others time and time again without any government assistance.
I am depressed now.
If Obozo the Clown is going to cut my lazy ass a check, give me a house, and pay for my healthcare, just for drawing breath on American soil, then why the hell would I want a job?
Don’t need a job guarantee, Toots. A check and a house will do.

Hey, Obama! Buy votes much?
So, I can walk into a bank and demand to be CEO, walk onto a car lot and pick out my new Corvette convertable, walk into a hospital and have my tumors removed for free, walk into a Walmart and get my huge arse TV – all on the gooberment teat?
Being an American just became great!
/max sarc off
The Representative’s statement is pretty silly. “A House” good grief, why not a car, too. Make mine a Masserati.
No, I think the representative may have gotten caught up in the spirit of the thing and expect her to back track just a tad.
As for healthcare, I do not want to spend six million dollars to keep an 89 year old alive, or pay for a lung transplans (yes, plural) for a smoker. And, I smoke like a chimney.
Don’t let them break your American spirit folks. Any laws that they pass CAN and WILL be repealed. The backlash against the liberals after they run our nation into the ground will be huge.
Don’t forget a car, cell phone, big screen TV, DVD player, microwave,… and other necessities of life.
You’ve got it wrong. The Committee will decide the 89 year old and the smoker aren’t worth treating. But, they will pay for Euthanasia!
It seems that Rep. Kaptur isn’t aware of the axiom
In case anyone wishes to know to what Obama was referring when he mentioned his “higher purpose“.
“In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and with it also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished, after labor has become not only a livelihood but life’s prime want, after the productive forces have increased with the all-round development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly–only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois law be left behind in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!”
~Karl Marx, Critique of the Gotha Programme
There is no mystery here, as noticed by many gun-owners and would-be gun-owners.
Seriously, McCain can’t seem to make hay out of hay, let alone these bombshells. If he would play that 2001 interview over and over where Obama calls the Constitution flawed and needing to be changed by the SCOTUS, and then say, “Obama can’t take the oath of office because it requires him to uphold the Constitution. As you just heard, Obama wants to CHANGE the Constitution! Obama wants the Supreme Court not to interpret the Constitution; he wants the Supreme Court to EXPAND the Constitution, because he thinks it ‘constrains government’ too much! My friends, this is as close to Marxism as we’ve ever heard out of a presidential candidate in the history of this great country. It didn’t work in the former Soviet Union. It’s not working in any other country where it’s been tried, and we can’t allow this experiment in the human condition to be undertaken here in the United States, where our very foundation is built on freedom from Government intrustion; not a less constrained Government, as Obama has declared he wants”.
*sigh*
I can’t stand it anymore.
Now I better understand how immigrants felt and the tough decisions they faced over the past 400 years (part of my family arrived in the late 1600′s). They wanted new a opportunity to live as they wanted without fear of the government they were leaving behind. If “the one” wins, I’m ready to pack and head out, but unfortunately there isn’t a new continent to immigrate to. What to do?
can’t claim this as my own…found it on another site….
‘Twas the night before elections
‘Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
‘ On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi’
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!
Whorebama 08!
I feel it is my RIGHT to a shiny new helicopter. I demand my rights!!! Help me, Obama, restore my rights to aircraft.
This all started in the 1930s with the New Deal. This is exactly what FDR wanted as defined in his 1944 State of the Union address. Link
Note that Obama’s spokesperson just yesterday tried to explain away the 2001 comments. But that guy – Cass Sunstein – wrote a book called The Second Bill of Rights: FDR’S Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More than Ever.
….and new Nikes!
Obama I want a harem full of girls from Hustler magazine and a SUV with the spinning 22′s. Yeh!
Only if you gained all your experience from applying for the job.
Ah yes…the perverbial “taken out of context” so-called “explanation”. Except that the 4+ minute audio provided all the “context” anyone would need. He’s in this to get “social and economic justice” for blacks, to fix the oppression they suffered prior to the civil rights movement. It’s what he said, and this time, I’ll take him at his word.
“Be Afwaid. Be vewy Afwaid!”

This comes as no surprise.
I loved Sarah on Hannity last night. She said we want to make the government work for the us, not make us work for the government.
I pray it’s not too little too late.
Does this mean that they will kick out the illegals or do they get a guaranteed a job too?
Well there it is folk. Laying in the open field for everyone to see. Finally the agenda is totally exposed.
DESTROY THE PROTECTIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION.
Our founding fathers limited the bills of rights in order propagate freedom not mandate comforts.
Is he going to grant my wish for government to leave me the hell alone?
We are screwed either way on this one…
Can you all see the connection to this travesty and the radio recording in 2001.
DO I NEED TO SAY MORE?
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Pilgrims, who braved the North Atlantic Ocean to come to a strange land, didn’t do so expecting to be protected by the government the whole time. On the contrary, they told the government that they just wanted to be left alone to live life on their own terms.
The Pioneers, who braved the unknown West to go to a strange land, didn’t expect to be protected by the government. They also just wanted to be left alone to live their own life on their own terms.
My how we’ve fallen. Now we expect to be protected by the government just crossing the street.
Very true, FM.
THESE DAMN DEMOCRATS MUST BE VERY INSECURE BABYS!!!!!!!!!!!
In obama’s mind, he really is the messiah, and he plans to part the constitution.

In the Obama future, there will be no such distinction. America as you understand it will not exist. Therefore your question is moot.
I’m not going to pay my mortgage this month. I’m gonna buy a 65″ LCD TV so I can watch “The One” become King Of The Universe. I was watching a rerun of Stephen King’s “The Stand” the other night. I just realized that Obama is Randall Flagg, with a better haircut.
Oh dear Lord. I think I’m going to be sick. I will fight to the bitter end to make sure the “American Experiment” doesn’t end. And I think I don’t think the fight will be a pretty one.
Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov described the four stages of
“Ideological Subversion”
(also known as “Active Measures” and “Psychological Warfare“) as:
The Demoralization stage could very well be the reinterpretation of the First Amendment to mean “Separation of Church and State”.
The Destabilization stage could very well be the Destabilization of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The Crisis stage could very well be the current financial crisis, as well as the Manufactured Crisis that Senator Joe Biden has assured us is certain to happen in the first six months of an Obama presidency.
It is reported that Vice-Presidential candidate Joe Biden, speaking in Seattle on Sunday, October 19, 2008, said:
The next President of the United States will likely determine whether or not we enter the fourth and final stage:
Communist “Normalization”
Those “really tough decisions” Biden was confidently predicting could be to impose Martial law and rewrite our Constitution.
“Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.”

The pilgrims originally had a communal style of living when they first came. Everyone gave in to the common food and goods bank and it was to be doled out as needed.
It didn’t last long as those who were willing to work and contribute to the bank were soon outnumbered by those who realized they had to do nothing to receive.
Yep, everywhere it’s been tried, it has failed and always for the same reasons.
Dude, in Obamerica the best women and cars are for your leaders – you’ll get a Yugo and a Helen Thomas lookalike and be grateful, peasant!
On second thought,you’ll get a bicycle and a Helen Thomas lookalike to ride on your handlebars and YOU WILL be an obedient servant of THE ONE and be grateful, peasant!

Bill of Rights 2.0
Fairness Doctrine
Crap Sandwich 3.0.. 4.0 and 5.0
Illegals Amnesty 2.0
The Constitution, version 2
Abolition of firearms
What’s after that? No term limits for a President Obama?
We could have our hands full.
Seriously though. If the Democrats were to succeed with even half of what they plan, and they also succeed with planting enough liberals in our voter roles, exactly what recourse do we have?
Are there enough conservatives in office to block the dems actions?
I bet Obama acts very niggardly in his person life. Bet he gives niggardly tips to the waiter.
I also personally suspect that the “international crisis” would be:
a nuclear weapon being detonated in Washington, D.C.,
and Obama moving the seat of government,
just like he moved the seat of the DNC,
to Chicago (home of the Communist Party USA).
I base this suspicion on several things Obama has said and done, including his talking about being able to walk from his house to the Chicago Olympics when he is President.
Washington, D.C. is home to many primary sources that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that our nation was founded as a Christian nation. I think the Godless Communists would like to see that all destroyed in seconds.
I clearly don’t want to see that happen, but Joe Biden assured us:
How did the Communists test John Kennedy?
With the Cuban Missle Crisis, which brought us to the brink of nuclear war.
The Russians could never attack us directly with missles, but could indirectly via Jihadist terrorists…
…just as I suspect they did on 9/11/2001.
That should be enough motivation for anyone.
And the courts will determine what’s fair play
MADDNESS
Rob says;
Understandable, I have been out of sorts for a little more than a week now and I know why. I’ve withdrawn a little from some people I know because I’m mad that the Country is headed down a path that it may never recover from.
I am sad I have to say “see-ya” to the Obama voters I know. I will not be able to have a rational conversation with any of them again. They don’t exist any longer to me.
Above all else I have always believed in my Country and live knowing the Founders gave me a special freedom that few other societies have ever known.
The idea a pure unknown with socialists ideologies snuck into the Presidency uncovers a weakness I did not know existed.
What other weaknesses exist? You have a right to be depressed Rob.
That’swhat Obama was alluding to in the video that we were all watching yesterday. The Constitution is a negative document, intended to limit the powers of the government leaving us free to live our lives as we best see fit.
Obama said he wanted it to contain a list of entitlements – i mean, rights, for all Americans. And illegal aliens too, I assume.
The whole constitution is basically tattered beyond recognition anyway, so I am not even sure it realistically matters in Washington these days.
I don’t know the age of people that post on MM, I’m assuming they are a wide age range. One of my favorite movies of all times is “Dr. Zhivago”, set during the 20th century before and including the Bolshevik Russian Revolution. It is where the upper class were to lose their possessions under the new Socialist System. There were many demonstrations and after the revolution money had no value, they bartered for firewood and bread, etc. Might be a good movie to watch to see how it was back then and could be here, perhaps?
I bet Obama acts very niggardly in his person life. Bet he gives niggardly tips to the waiter.
The GOP has only itself to blame for this. (well, and McCain’s campaign)
Driving a car.. still a privilege..
Universal Health Care.. a right that is self evident..
You Say You Want A Revolution?
I don’t know why Biden asked; “Is that a real question?” when queried about Marxism.
Obviously this is extreme socialism at best. The real problem is that there is an entire new generation not understanding what Marxism means.
The so called “smart people” that have supported Obama help lure them into the belief there is no danger. Even though only half the people have moved to one side of the boat we are all in danger!
The tipping point can still be countered but it will involve warning a lot of people that do not want to hear it. It is frustrating to watch this disaster unfold nearly in slow motion.
Everyone that survives will have to organize and fight an Obama ruling class in order to restore our country and constitution. That means fighting every socialistic proposal that comes down the pike. De-privatizing 401′s by encouraging people to raid them until they are gone is one of them.
Everyone better understand it is not an exaggeration to state Americas liberty and individual freedom are the stakes.
Demolition can take mere moments,while rebuilding can take generations.
Our posterity may be reading about the former country of the United States of America if we don’t resist this mightily.
The Obama worshipers may like the “new” bill of rights, but they want the job and education part left out. Too much work. The whole point supporting the radical left is so they can sit on their butts and get everything handed to them. Redistribution of wealth to them is taking from the worker and giving to the non-worker.
A number of the posts above state that “WHITE PERSONS SHOULD NOT ADOPT BLACK CHILDREN”. What a racist comment–racists come in all colors and ethnic groups.
Listen carefully to the Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King’s I HAVE A DREAM speech for God’s view on this. All persons should see one another as equals and individuals–not as Black, White, Asian, etc.
Obama’s white grandmother got it right–she loved and cared for this abandoned child and give him the best she could.

Then why, as a “typical white person”, does she “cross the street when she sees black men approaching”? Those were BHO’s words, or something to that effect.
Wouldn’t it be better if Obama shared some of $150 million he raised this past month with McCain and Barr and McKinney? Then EVERYBODY would be better off!
If everyone made $249,000 a year in Obamaland, who would complain? Oops. I forgot. Complaining in Obamaland is a capital offense no matter what you make or how heavily you are taxed.

And I will bet you not one soul who was cheering and slobbering at this embarrassing display of pandering has a single clue what it takes to change the constitution…
Then again, to a liberal the constitution is just something to wipe themselves with after they dump on our flag.
This election gives the American people the opportunity to put a stake into the heart of the Communist vampire once and for all. Their agenda has been clear to conservatives, now America sees, via Obama, what the “Democrats” are really all about.
Allowing the removal of prayer from schools,
Allowing the IRS to silence political speech in churches, and
Allowing the misinterpretation of the first amendment…
…have all directly contributed to “demoralization“, which led to “destablization“, then “crisis“, and now
Our Constitutional Republic Is On The Line…
Here are patriotic American Democrats.

Do you think that Obama/Biden would have ANY chance of being elected if they told the truth about what they stand for and what their plans are?
Each person is already guaranteed these things, with one clause: they must work for it. I guess it is this one clause that concerns the lazy, the inept, and the unambitious. The irony is that this sort of thinking is heralded as the work of “visionaries” or “idealists”, when in reality it’s nothing more than the work of a politician leeching off of the age-old desire of those wanting something for nothing.
…Straight from the preamble of the CONSTITUTION OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Could it get ANY more blatant than that?
What do you want to bet that the “religious” freedom they want to guarantee would write “Separation of Church and State” into our Constitution?
If that succeeds, they’ll be making a lot of renovations to the U.S. Capitol building to remove all references to
God, Moses, Crosses and the Bible in Our Capitol Building
Is your company ready for change? Here is a sample letter to all employees…
As of November 5, 2008, IF President Obama is officially elected into office, our company will instill a few new policies which are in keeping with his new, inspiring issues of change and fairness:
1. All salespeople will be pooling their sales commissions into a common pool that will be divided equally between all of you. This will serve to give those of you who are underachieving, a ‘fair shake.’
2. All hourly employees will be pooling their wages, including overtime, into a common pool, dividing it equally amongst yourselves. This will help those who are ‘too busy for overtime’ to reap the rewards from those who have more spare time and can work extra hours.
3. All top management will now be referred to as ‘the government.’ We will not participate in this ‘pooling’ experience because the law doesn’t apply to us.
4. The ‘government’ will give eloquent speeches to all employees every week, encouraging its workers to continue to work hard ‘for the good of all.’
5. The employees will be thrilled with these new policies because it’s ‘good to spread the wealth.’ Those of you who have underachieved will finally get an opportunity; those of you who have worked hard and had success will feel more ‘patriotic.’
6. The last few people who were hired should clean out their desks. Don’t feel bad though, because President Obama will give you free healthcare, free handouts, free oil for heating your home, free food stamps, and he’ll let you stay in your home for as long as you want even if you can’t pay your mortgage. If you appeal directly to our democratic congress, you might even get a free flat screen TV and a coupon for free haircuts (shouldn’t all Americans be entitled to nice looking hair?) !!!
If for any reason you are not happy with the new policies, you may want to rethink your vote on November 4th.
Why is anyone surprised at the concept of a 2nd Bill of Rights?
Public schools have been promoting this concept for decades! Inattentive parents buy their kids’ love. Today’s children and young adults have never heard the word “no” because it could stunt their creativity and make them sad.
The “me first” generations is ripe for the picking.
God help us all!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!
I hope you are happy Oprah! That’s right Oprah Winfrey, who would you lay all this at the doorstep of ? MS Winfrey prefers her Men- Beta Male…apparently she was planning a Country wide makeover. People have said, this is a celebrity based election, it sure looks that way and who is the Queen of Celebrities…we don’t hear too much from Miss Oprah these days. Who knows what she has planned next. I am only half kidding.
What Do Rielle Hunter and Oprah Have In Common?
As Joseph Farah points out, Colin Powell and the Communist Party USA’s assessment that Obama’s is a “transformative candidacy” is certainly true. I agree with Farah in that:
God help us. We are about to put a socialist, and his Wife (who hasn’t been proud of her Country until this year), in the White House. At the same time there will be a Dem (possibly filibuster proof) majority in Congress, all “monitored” by a shamelessly corrupt press that is unabashedly biased to the extreme left.
Please tell me one reason why I shouldn’t think that Democracy is dead in America, and that the dark ages of this Country aren’t really about to begin? This is sooooooooooo f***ing depressing.
Did they mention changing Times Square to Tienanmen Square?
From Fox News Site:
unreal.
sorry but no where else to post.
but think of the bright side, north dakota will finally become populated by the reeducation population being gulaged to the hinterlands to grow wheat and dig coal.
The reason I highly recommend that we make this our mantra
(literally repeated word-for-word, over and over) is because:
1) It emphasizes that being Capitalist/Anti-Communist is “Color Blind”.
2) It brings focus back to the Ayers-Obama connection, which needs to be put under a big, bright spotlight!
Not much chance of that – there’s honest people doing an honest days work in North Dakota. Besides, they have a oil boom going on up there.
Look to the east, Minnesota has a steaming pile of embarrassment running for Senator, perfect for a land that needs swamps drained, ditches dug, and lutefisk rinsed.

Hi, my name is Rick Prendergast and I’m announcing my candidacy for president. I absolutely guarantee that if I am elected, everyone in America will receive free health care, free food, free housing, free sex, free automobiles, free vacations whenever you want them, and anything else you want, FREE. I also guarantee that if you get caught breaking the law, your first 1000 violations will be FREE and without penalty. Also, free money for everyone, as fast as we can print it. So, how about it America! (All promises subject to change/cancellation without warning on Nov 5th, 2008.)
