    It's guilt by association. Look, the guy ain't my cup of tea, just by being a truther. And he didn't make Obama happy with the 9/11 business, which he apparently didn't mention before. When asked today if Jones still enjoys the confidence of the President, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said "he continues to work in this administration." Uhhh, OK . . .

    But making this guy into "self-avowed commies and radical America haters in the White House" is gilding the lily.

    In other words, "Oh...OK, he is a communist with a radical past, but, but...ummmm....who cares?"

    Whatever, Red.:dis:

    then you should have stated from the start that you have no trouble with his patriotism. his alleged hypocrisy is not related at all to his patriotism regarding deferments.

    This thread and many other in FSA all revert back to a common theme...This is by far the WORST Congress we have EVER had in the HISTORY of our nation.

    There will be NO good ideas, NO bi-partisanship, NO pro-American agenda as long as we allow a few people to control this country.

    I don't care for Obama because I believe he lacks quality experience, surrounds himself with questionable characters, and ultimately wants to force a government-controlled redistribution of wealth agenda down our throats. My feelings have absolutely ZERO to do with his race or color...BUT if you say anything against him you're automatically a racist. :dis: I love how only white people can be racists. :dis:

    My bigger fear is Pelosi and the other crazed clowns. Pelosi just broke a record for the LOWEST rating EVER for a Speaker of the House. She can't blame the media as they're pro-liberal so she simply stated people don't understand the magnitude of her job. I'm calling BS on that one!

    If Democrats truly wanted bi-partisanship (they don't...but claim they do) they would vote Pelosi out and replace her with a level-headed moderate. As long as she's in power you can forget about this country moving forward. She alone will cost the Democrats MANY seats.

    The whole race thing around Obama cracks me up. He's half-white! Do people not know that or do they know and choose to ignore it because it doesn't help their argument?

    Heres the speech in it's entirety:

    Personally I think he's going to lose the under 17 vote with the suggested restrictions on XBox usage.

    Main Entry: lamblast
    Pronunciation: \lamˈblast\
    Function: noun
    1 : an explosion or violent detonation using quadrupedal, ruminant livestock as the catalyst.

    WORST PART:

    You’ll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment. You’ll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free. You’ll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.

    This country is just so unfair! :nope:


    BEST PART:

    I know that sometimes, you get the sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work -- that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.

    It's not often you hear a liberal talk about personal accountability and responsibility so this is the highlight for me. Earn it!

    Our schools will be taping the speech and showing it during social studies at a later date. This will keep from disrupting lesson plans and allow parents to decide if the speech becomes political. I hate that we have to do that but you can't trust politicians to do what they say.

    Oh noozz. The big bad political education speech. Yea, that was their main concern, afte reading the speech and comparing to H.W Bush speech, wheres the difference.
    Its complete nonsense is what it is. Its nothing socialistic or political about this speech.
    I know what this crap is about. People should just be honest and stop lying.
