   As someone who bought and read Mao’s Thoughts (The Little Red Book) cover to cover several times to know my enemy, I find Obama’s Little Blue Book creepy to the point of being frightening.

   Free societies are based on laws, principles, and in our nation the Constitution. Nations focused on the thoughts of one person…… scary.

   Beware the puffery of the egg description. Most coffee is of the robusto variety as it’s cheaper. The arabica beans are better, and it’s only as more people are demanding better coffee that its proportion of coffee grown is rising.

   I saw no reason to buy Mao’s Little Red Book when it was popular, I see no reason to buy an Obama book now.

   The wooden sculpture that Barack Obama has brought into the Oval Office combines African tribal tradition with a poignant message. Obtained on a 2006 visit to his ancestral Kenya, the “Egg of Power” symbolizes the fragility of chiefly power: According to an ancient proverb, power is like an egg; if it’s held too tightly, it breaks, and if it’s held too loosely, it will slip from grasp.

   My guess is The One™ was taken in my a piece of schlock tourist cr*pola.

    I lived in Shanghai a few years ago, and those Little Red Books are nearly impossible to find. Everyone was so freaking glad Mao died that they apparently “disappeared” their copies as quickly and violently as possible.

    Other Mao-era propaganda and art could be had if you searched a bit, but the actual little red books I never found.

    No. It’s just a entrepreneur trying to make a buck off of Obama’s popularity. If it becomes popular, then yes, I might be worried. Until then, it’s just another chance to take a cheap shot at Obama.

    Well said.

    The post you refer to is merely one more in the long, long, loooonnng line of statements by socialists/statists/existentialists/nihilists going back for 40+ years that I can remember, and likely before then.

    They mockingly and nastily dismiss concerns that folks have who do not adhere to their worldview.

    First they dismissed, mocked, and criticized fact-based concerns about Communism; then they dismissed, mocked, and criticized fact-based concerns about Islam; now they dismiss, mock, and criticize fact-based concerns about the development of an arrogant, ignorant, thuggish, fascist personailty cult.

    If there’s one thing I’ve learned since the mid-late 60s, it is that if the socialists start screaming at you and vilifying you, you’ve hit a nerve…and accurately hit a target.

    This is the culmination of 60 years of communist infiltration into American society and institutions. I am really quite surprised that this did not come to a head long before now, especially given the human tendency towards capitulation and irresponsibility. At least we held out longer than the dhimmi Euros.

    Speaking of which, do you think that they realize, with the passage of America over to the dark side, that their decline in living standards will collapse at an even faster rate now? America, formerly the great economic engine of the world, will no longer be there to prop up their crippled economies. When it dawns on them that they have bought into the great lie, it will be too late. But somhow I don’t think they care, given their addiction to the nanny state. They will always have their meager allotments to comfort them in their gray malaise of life. Mao and Joe Stalin live on in our modern politicians, and like them, they will not relinquish power.

    so in addition to carrying two navy issued black ink pens

    Ummm, those are Property of the US Government. I used to be the person who ordered the supplies in my Division, (no I wasnt a REMF, it was collateral duty…) so sometimes I had way toooooo much time on my hands to sit and stare at the embossing on the pens. Black is required but I was mandated to carry 4 colors of pens on me at all times.

    You know if they wanted to really “get” someone and they couldnt make the real charges stick or if they wanted to up the charges, they would bust guys on stealing Government Property by finding the pens off-base in their possession. (Ive seen it done)

    And there I was…

    Granite @ January 27th, 2009 at 9:54 am. That ‘hungry’ claw brings me to mind of the Ammonite god Molech claiming yet another ‘seed’ of Man into his lake of fire in exchange for the promise of prosperity. For the pro-choicers, their adamant refain is; “All hail Molech!!!”

    Obama’s “Egg of Power” idol, posing as deep philosophy, is one and the same as the skeletal Beserk, only fleshed out for emotional appearances.

    Sorry Michelle but I have found the ultimate in Obama schlock.

    Chia Obama

    Comes in “Happy Pose” and “Determined Pose”!

    I had been thinking of buying a Chia pet for fun, but now not. (I think my lunch will settle down soon. It wasn’t so much the coming up with the items, but the adulation of the presentation.)

    But if one is still in the service, one is on duty 24 hours a day, so therefore one is merely being ready for duty at anytime. Or something like that.

    Do not buy an egg of power, it is a trick. Little do you know, but your egg is not the true egg of power, merely a copy that is a servant to the One Egg. The One Egg, the true Egg of Power, was forged in secret by The Dark Lord Obama in the fires of Mount Chicago. It and it alone commands all of the lesser eggs.

    When I got ready to retire back in ’06, I returned all of my military issued stuff to avoid the infamous “Stealing Government Property Charge” I am not sure if that would fall under Article 121 (Larceny and wrongful approbiation) or 139 (Destruction of Gov’t Property). But didn’t want to give my old CO and XO an execuse to try to bust me down a chevron.

    Normally the easiest charge to prove against someone most of the time at SCM is the notorious “Dereliction of Duty Charge” aka UCMJ Article 92 (That one I know from personal experience compliments of Spike and HS-11)-BTW I was blessed in that I was the only Dragonslayer charged that opted for SCM that beat Spike. JAG threw out all three charges!
