“Class”:
BUSH has it.
Obozo doesn’t have it !!
This Hussein-worship thread is hilarious, now that it’s been hijacked by the conservatives.
“The Constitution gives us several reset buttons...”
Sadly, the Constitution is no longer a valid document. The 1st Amendment is not recognized by this regime. The 2nd Amendment is on its way out. We saw the 4th Amendment wiped out with Elian Gonzales. So why would you think we can count on elections or impeachment?
“...the left wants to act like idiots and make quasi-racist remarks...”
Speaking of which, in one of Hussein’s speeches last week he mentioned something being a “sacred cow”. That sounds racist to me, since sacred cows are specific to the Eastern Indian cultures. I want him to apologize for that racist remark.
It’s sad to see that we have traitors among our veterans.
The 1st Amendment is not recognized by this regime.I keep reading this here. Can someone explain to me in what way it's true?
First of all, if the 1st Amendment isn't "recognized" any more, how is Free Republic still online? How did thousands of people manage to stage "Tea Party" protests the other week with no interference whatsoever? How is it that there's a YouTube video with a supposed Marine (who is oddly unfamiliar with the full text of the Oath of Enlistment) calling for armed insurrection that has been viewed 100,000 times?
In a totalitarian regime, or a fascist dictatorship, these things wouldn't exist. They'd be pulled off line about as fast as they get put up. Do a little research on what you can see on the Internet from inside China and compare to what you can see here (everything).
Believe me, if the 1st Amendment weren't working, that last indicator you'd see would be people complaining about it in public.
Well said.
I would like make to another point, if I might.
Some of the accusations / insults / borderline threats against Obama diminish the credibility of this site. First of all, some of them are obviously, factually wrong. Others, use rhetoric completely out of proportion to what is being discussed.
Both types limit our ability to persaude others, making us look like extreme right-wing loons and, as such, not be taken seriously.
My own example -- when the financial crisis started in September, I visited the Business/Economics forum daily and I learned a great deal about finance just by reading the many informative posts.
Lately, it has become impossible to read a thread on that forum; the screeching, name-calling, etc., have completely drowned out thoughtful, analytical posts.
Fortunately, a freeper referred me Calculated Risk, where I now follow their discussions.
Absolutely. And class is something you just can’t fake.
bttt
It doesn't sound like you are on the "Great Unifier" bandwagon......
Okay, so no salty talk about Mr. 0bama. Does that mean he’s not worth his salt?
He ain’t worth spit.
In this case, I think it applies to both of those at the top of the executive branch. (And Cactus Jack didn't actually use the word "spit" either.)
A+ was my homie ;)
What if he decides differently. (a la Chavez)
That's what Pinochets are for.
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

I already made the mistake of making a derogatory statement against “the messiah” on a newspaper blog site and got a visit from the SS within 6 hours. I invited them in and and allowed them to conduct their interview. They were very polite and were just “doing their job”. They asked me if I had anything “against the president” and wondered if I attended any political rallys where he spoke. The whole process took less than an hour. I learned my “lesson” when it comes to messing with anything “Obama”.

(Has he spoken with many families of 9-11 victins yet ?)
But, if one would use words like The Commie, or The Big-Eared One, would that be ok?
