"... the moment when we began to provide care for the sick." We already do that Dumbo! It's called Medicaid and Medicare and SCHIPS.

All Praise Obama! He has brought us all together. Just yesterday I was a staunch Conservative, but he has healed even the rift between us.

Excuse me???????? But what the heck are you talking about?????????
To: newbie2008
RUSH: Sounds wonderful, right? To a lot of airheads, to a lot of dorks, to a lot of dunces this sounds just fabulous. "We began to provide care for the sick." We've got the best medical care in the world! "Good jobs for the jobless." The unemployment rate is 5%! Anybody not working in America today does not want to work. It's just that simple. "...when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." Ladies and gentlemen, in order to protect the integrity and decorum of this program, I am going to step aside for a moment and bring aboard the Official Obama Criticizer: Bo Snerdley.
SNERDLEY: This is Bo Snerdley, the EIB Official Barack Criticizer, certified black enough to criticize -- and I have a message. Senator Obama in your victory speech last night you declared that this was America's moment that somehow now, if we are willing to work for it -- fight for it, believe in it -- we're all going to look back someday and realize, this was the moment that we began to care for the sick, to have jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans would begin to slow and our planet would begin to heal. This was the moment we came together to remake this great nation. That's what you said. Excuse me, sir. What country have you been living in? Americans have been working hard since there was America! It's that work that made this the world's lone superpower, that work that built a nation that is the envy of the world. And what is this business about the oceans begin to slow? What does that mean? In fact, what do you mean? This is insulting, sir! America is great; it was great before you stepped on the scene. The thing that frightens us, sir, is that you are hell-bent on destroying what is great in the name of liberalism.
Now, a translation for the EIB brothers and sisters in the 'hood: My brutha, O! Big ups on your win, yo. You the big dog now, but yo, listen up, what's up with that speech, bro? Check it out. You running for president or you running to become black Moses, yo? You going to all day like, you know, step on the scene, the world, the ocean's going to part, then start slowing down? Yo, that sounds a little fishy to me, yo. And the joblessness? You want to get jobs for people, yo? Doing what? But if you throwin' down jobs I got a few peeps to hit you up with, brothers and sisters looking for jobs out there better paying money, Rezko, yo? Look, I got news for you, most of us even the typical white people, yo, we already care for sick people -- and dig this, bro. What kind of policy you holding back that can heal the planet? Especially since it's not sick. Between you and me, yo, the earf isn't sick, doesn't really need to be healed. Yo, bro, you need to chill, you know? You're not God, despite yo press coverage.
That concludes our statement.
RUSH: The Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley.

That is what is so scary. If it was posted by some guy who signed up in 2002 it would be sarcasm. By a newbie (expect what newbie would call himself newbie?) - it very well could be one of those fine folks over at DU that actualy believes this.
Or - for all I know - this really IS a quote from Obama on the campaign trail.

To: newbie2008
Let’s see.
1) We are at 5% unemployment. Assuming a natural unemployment rate (those who can’t or won’t work) of 5%, we are at or near full employment.
2) Everybody has healthcare. The uninsured just go to hospital emergency rooms. Does everyone have access to UNLIMITED healthcare (like Ted Kennedy having brain surgery at Duke University?). Of course not. But to imply that everyone will have unlimited healthcare is like saying “Everyone will be a millionaire.” Uh, how do we pay for it, Barak?
SOCIALIST DROOLINGS!!!!

To: alice_in_bubbaland
Remember how Hillary mocked him and said “celestial choirs will be singing, the heavens will open up” ? Could be a nice Republican ad to use the criticism of a good Democrat like Hillary against Obama.
Jobs for the jobless? Can he really create “green” jobs that pay well and employ the chronically unemployed?
Health care for all? My God, even the uninsured in this country get basic universal care as it is, if you consider that nobody can be turned away from an emergency room. Of course that care isn’t as good as the plan for members of Congress, which he will open to all. (don’t ask him who will pay for that)
Yep he will hold back the oceans as he turns around the alleged global warming. Sheesh, if you read and think about what he says, rather than be caught up in the frenzy of a campaign rally, you have to wonder what the heck he really will do as president.

(There is no plan B.)
To: newbie2008
A ruler wiser, greater, and more modest than King Barry Hussein:
“Let all men know how empty and worthless is the power of kings. For there is none worthy of the name but God, whom heaven, earth and sea obey”.
So spoke King Canute the Great, the legend says, seated on his throne on the seashore, waves lapping round his feet. Canute had learned that his flattering courtiers claimed he was “So great, he could command the tides of the sea to go back”. Now Canute was not only a religious man, but also a clever politician. He knew his limitations - even if his courtiers did not - so he had his throne carried to the seashore and sat on it as the tide came in, commanding the waves to advance no further. When they didn’t, he had made his point that, though the deeds of kings might appear ‘great’ in the minds of men, they were as nothing in the face of God’s power.

Yes, but I think his ad lib about thanking his grandmother is more galling. But we did reveal, perhaps by mistake, that grandma is being stashed somewhere in Hawaii, before she was stashed away in Kansas I believe.
I suspect the reason why they don’t want anyone to talk to her is that her heart was broken when she read how he cast her in his book.

The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
And I shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

This is the type of pontification you would hear from the Wizard of Oz:
Well, you can’t. As for you, my fine
friend — you’re a victim of disorganized
thinking. You are under the unfortunate
delusion that simply because you run away
from danger, you have no courage. You’re
confusing courage with wisdom. Back where
I come from, we have men who are called
heroes. Once a year, they take their
fortitude out of mothballs and parade it
down the main street of the city. And they
have no more courage than you have. But!
They have one thing that you haven’t got!
A medal! Therefore — for meritorious....
...conduct, extraordinary valor, conspicuous
bravery against wicked witches, I award you
the Triple Cross.
