   These angry leftists are out of control and they are going to overreach. I firmly believe that because they always do. Right now they are drunk with power, but it will lead to their downfall eventually. Let’s just pray they don’t take us too deep down the rabbit hole.

   Some stupid “journalist” with Newsweek said there’s a “creepy cult of personality” around Obama. Uh, yeah ya think?! Welcome to what conservatives have been talking about for at least a year now! These people are amazing.

   The purpose of a barrage of complaints is not to get her fired… it has the EXACT same purpose as the Obama supporters when they attacked WGN/Stanley Kurtz and then WTFV in Orlando with a barrage of angry emails and calls. It has the same purpose as when the media attacked Joe the Plumber. It’s activism. It is battle.

   Everyone here needs to go stick their head out the window and shout, “I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take this any more!”. –> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WINDtlPXmmE

   Poll puts Clinton ahead in key suburban counties as nominees travel south
   [FINAL Edition]

   The Sun – Baltimore, Md.
   Date: Sep 6, 1992
   Start Page: 19.A
   Section: NEWS
   Text Word Count: 546

   Abstract (Document Summary)

   * Contra Costa County, Calif., outside Oakland: Democrat Michael S. Dukakis managed a 3-point victory in 1988. Mr. Bush now trails Mr. [Bill Clinton] by 28 points, 57 percent for Mr. Clinton and 29 percent for Mr. Bush.

   * Montgomery County, Ohio, around Dayton: Mr. Bush won 58 percent of the vote in 1988. The Time poll reported a dead heat today, with Mr. Clinton 42 percent and Mr. Bush 41 percent.

   “You never thought we’d show up, did you?” Mr. Bush told Roy and Diantha Harris when he and first lady Barbara Bush showed up at their house in Asheville for lunch.

   Hey, Willie, read the last paragraph. That came from the Baltimore Sun archive section. Looks like Mr. Bush was campaigning and visited Roy and Diantha’s house during his campaigning in Asheville.

   Now, you can just…shut up!

    Ok, we know that the Obama thugs maintain a KGB style intelligence operation.

    So here is a free tip to them.

    Have the President-Elect (sigh) call this little girl and tell her how he is proud of her having beliefs even if counter to his.

    But tell her he is proud of her daddy and she should be also.

    If Obama wants to generate some good will towards those citizens who didn’t support him, this would be a good gesture.

    But, please, Bush was blamed for everything from the price of eggs to the black death. So, that little fit of pique doesn’t cut it with me.

    Puhleeeze. I never have, or would blame George freakng Bush for creating a culture for verbal abuse of a child.

    What folks like MM, BAL, Joy, and Whitetracsh are proving is that you’re no different than the fringe left. At least MM is just trying to create site hits and compete with Ann Coulter for brash insanity. What’s your excuse for hypocrisy? You mock so-called Derangement Syndrome when it’s against your party’s president, than you embrace when it’s against Obama. Real mature there. You’re two sides of the same coin. Save your strawman talking points. Find a quote where I’ve even insinuated that Bush is responsible for something as vile as a culture of child abuse. You’re full of it. This site is the evil twin of the Dailykos. Two sides, one coin.

    First, don’t tell people what they know and what they don’t know. Do I think Obama issued a directive to abuse children- no, but his heavy-handed tactics to shut down dissent (truth squads) are right out of Saul Alinsky’s Handbook for Radicals. He also told people to get in the faces of people who don’t agree. He did this.

    Second, are we now supposed to make nice nice and unify now that the left is in power? Funny, no effort whatsoever was made to reach out to conservatives or respect Bush as president. From day one it has been nothing but hateful invective and BS or should I say BDS. Also, don’t be so sure Obama is going to last for two terms. He hasn’t even slept in the White House yet and already the assumption is he will be reelected. Overreach, keep overreaching.

    Probably. At least she’ll be the new principal or serve on the school council. The left considers the country theirs now, and the attacks on anything contrary to their views will increase. If she had attacked Obama in the same way, the MSM would have had their trucks and hundreds of journalists down there in a flash.

I really haven’t been the same since I witessed how degenerated this once great nation has become (about 60%). I know millions of votes were stolen but there were also millions that actually voted for the one. I’m afraid we have just seen the begining of this too.

    You lost, and now your cranky and dishonest. You’re just like the fringe left after Bush won in 2000 and 2004. Go ahead and blame Obama for child abuse. Call him a Marxist Muslim. Be obsessive over Ayers, Wright and Khalidi. Your tactics are pathetic according to 63+ million people and 53% of the voting public. You lost, and now you’re confirming to be nothing beyond Koslike. Please keep it up, because the tinfoilly fringe stuff just doesn’t matter. Fool on me for actually arguing earlier. I’m trying to convert logic to crazy. It’s pointless. Feel free to blame Obama for every abuse upon a child for the next 8 years. It’s irrelevant. It’s actually kind of funny.

    BTW, thanks for focusing on the crap moderates and independents didn’t care about as opposed to the fact that Obama wants to give health insurance and drivers licenses to illegals. Thanks for the election victory. Please come again in 2012, and bring Palin with you.

    With people like this and Obama as president, you will see a Nazi-like state where little children like this poor little girl taken away from their parents to be brainwashed, and the parents either institutionalized or murdered.

    This is a brutal regime coming, and folks just don’t get it. Idiots like Bill O’Reilly is still out there saying that Obama is reasonable and decent, and they just cannot see how evil and ruthless he really is.

    Our rights as free people are on the verge of being crushed, those in opposition to it will be taken away (White Christians mostly), and evil whores like this “teacher” will be on the sidelines cheering. God help us.

    Go away, you silly Obamoid troll. He’s not paying campaign workers anymore.

    If the story I read earlier proves true, he only pays his workers half of what they were to earn anyhow. Must have taken the other half from his campaign contributions to spread the wealth around… to his own personal bank accounts

    This is child abuse plain and simple. The “educator” should be disciplined, fired, forced to apologize publicly, and banned from the classroom.

    When it came to my children the social niceties go bye bye – right out the window. I thought high school graduation was a big deal and at the time it was. I thought Viet Nam was life changing and for a time it was.

    But when that first child was born and the nurse handed him to me the universe indeed did change-I was no longer the center. I did become a gentler man, more aware and considerate; and swore total retaliation to anyone or thing that hurt them. I never had to and for that I do give thanks.

    I never had a Diantha Harris in my life: she would damn her mother for giving her birth. But I would pick my time-patient, cold blooded type I can be. The hell with that heathen slut.

    Not that Michelle needs my help, but nowhere in her post did she accuse Obama of advocating this behavior. She asked a question.

    Must have struck a nerve though.

    Since the teacher is a self-proclaimed Obama supporter, I think Michelle is allowed to question it.

    Well, the “educator” is certainly following Obama’s order to get in the little girl’s face for her support of McCain. Obama is secretive about his work with terrorist Ayers on plans to indcotrinate children, so we don’t know how much of this was officially prescribed by him.

    But the most telling thing here to you, MsJustice, should be the mirror. An adult verbally assaults a litte girl and you are making excuses. That speaks volumes of the extreme wrongness of mindset that Obama is pushing and of what caused this to happen in the first place.

    I don’t think so. Just as Roosevelt’s policies extended the Depression but everything got blamed on Hoover, Obama and his fellow Marxists will simply blame everything bad that happens on Bush.

    For that matter, anyone so sanguine about associating with terrorists as Obamessiah is, would likely see little to criticize in a little electioneering by one of his supporters. Sorry, Mistress “Justice” (what a laugh). You’re known by the company you keep, and he keeps very bad company.

    You all don’t matter. You lost. Now some of you are flailing around and blaming Obama for creating this terrible situation involving the pathetic teacher and the little girl.
    You lost, and now your cranky and dishonest. You’re just like the fringe left after Bush won in 2000 and 2004. Go ahead and blame Obama for child abuse. Call him a Marxist Muslim. Be obsessive over Ayers, Wright and Khalidi.

    Ms”justice”, you have no idea what matters. The fact is that Obama’s associations with these cretins (Ayers, Wright, and Khlidi) are the only things that matter in this.

    You FOOL! How can you possibly sit there and say that the people who populate his circle of associates, friends, and influences don’t matter? Obama SOUGHT OUT these people to associate with. They didn’t just coincidentally all live in the same neighborhood, as Obama tried to imply.

    And this “teacher” is precisely the type of person who roams the halls of congress today. Everything she is “teaching” is what they want every child in America to think and believe. She didn’t say ANYTHING to the contrary of what people like John Murtha or Nancy Pelosi have been saying for the past five years.

    If anyone is lacking in intellectual integrity, it’s folks like YOU who won’t get it until they start dragging folks away. They want to destroy freedom of speech (equating its regulation with the regulating of PORNOGRAPHY), they want to destroy industry, enterprise, and initiative (for the sake of economic “JUSTICE”), and spread misery around (“because that’s good for everybody”).

    What don’t you get? How is it if a Republican candidate is merely ACCUSED of missing his national guard drills (on the basis of forged documents) that it becomes the basis of a huge scandal that eventually brought down the CBS “news” network, but when it’s brought out that EVERY SINGLE Obama association is a radical America-hating scumbag, then WE’RE being dishonest by doing so?

    Just goes to show that some will simply defend the indefensible.

     We won’t be seeing much of her from now on. Here she must have had the sudden epiphany that she has to express whole-hearted approval of such things as get-in-their-faces child-abuse – as we have here – in order to support Obama. Very few people can (publicly)live with that disconnect from the most basic of human decency.

     If some teacher invoked Obama’s “get ‘em” political rationale to attack a little girl who supported Obama, that teacher should also be fired right off the bat.

     Setting aside the sheer wrongness of “educators” politically indocrinating students, it’s just wrong to attack any child. MsJustice has just realized she will have to try to keep justifying such shameful attacks for four years. I know I couldn’t do it and live with myself, so I don’t blame her from sheepishly bowing out.
