‘Wait a minute,’ she said, ‘what is the substance here?

His "substance" is exactly the same as hers. She's just whiny because Osama's doing a better job of concealing his Marxism than she is.

This writer is good. Very good. I wonder if she ran in the same circles as Mark Steyn.

Yes, I think she's that good.

Obama appears to be on the wrong side of just about every important issue going; indeed, were he to be elected president he would be a danger to the free world. But hey – the guy makes people feel good about themselves; he stands for hope, love, reconciliation, youthfulness and fairies at the bottom of the garden.

Excellent points made. Which is why Obama appeals to the youth vote. They are more likely to buy into the warm fuzzies because of their idealistic naivite.

And the powers that be better come up with a game plan to win- cause the clinton machine is dropping the ball. We are not dealing with logic here. We are dealing with people feeling “good” when they buck establishment. I dont see a candidate we have that can muster that kind of “feeling” illogical as it is out of voters.

It was only with the death of the People’s Princess that the extent of Britain’s transformation from a country of reason, intelligence, stoicism, self-restraint and responsibility into a land of credulousness, emotional incontinence, sentimentality, irresponsibility and self-obsession became shatteringly apparent.

We are right there, with ya'.

Emotional incontinence... You gotta love that one...

Ironic isn’t it? Obama’s main supporter is the Queen of “I feel your pain; while I pull your strings”.

Maybe she should mention that she ‘punched a kid in the nose’ when she was a girl and she was being picked on....lol. Heck, it was important enough for her to mention in her book!

“Where there is emotion, there is no substance”

Also, I have NEVER understood politicians campaigning on the promise of “CHANGE”. Right now, even less. Most importantly, what is to change about the victories against terrorists? Actually, only children and the feeble minded have a constant need for change.. it occupies their minds and stimulates their senses. If you ever did any babysitting, you know that. Only really undeveloped minds and immature personalities can be appealed to with success by promising ‘change’. It’s a permanent vacation from reality for them.

Adults, accept and really welcome the status quo.... the balance and order of a regular and uniform environment and daily routine. Basic stability and freedom from the continual chaos and disorder of perpetual and gratuitous change permits the necessary development and growth in all other areas of our lives and characters. Life itself hands people enough change to keep us busy and becoming hooked on ‘change’ is the manifestation of a truly infantile mentality.
