The President of the United States Said That? [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
New York Times via National Review ^ | 11/7/09

Posted on 11/07/2009 10:23:19 PM PST by roses of sharon

President Obama, in his pitch to Democrats on the Hill today (from the New York Times):

Mr. Obama, during his private pep talk to Democrats, recognized Mr. Owens election and then posed a question to the other lawmakers. According to Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon, who supports the health care bill, the president asked, “Does anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are going to support them if they bring down health care? All it will do is confuse and dispirit” Democratic voters “and it will encourage the extremists.”

WE are the extremists? The Americans people are extremists to this President?

Does anyone think for one minute a government run health system will be fair to WE extremists?

Not a shock, this is what he thinks of us. Every night when he goes to bed he laughs his ass off at the idiots who elected him. 52 percent of this population elected a dictator and were too damn stupid to see it

This issue is about to go politically nuclear.

Well we know that the gov. run healthcare plan isn’t good enough for the President, the Senate nor the House of Rep’s and their families. They are above the pay grade!

You are right. He has no idea about extreme. The Tea Parties and efforts to stop this bill were just shots across the bow and he calls this extreme. What will he think of the boarding party?

Obama is a thug. He won’t call terrorists extremist but will call conservative Americans that.

Notice how the President of the United States of America, trashes Americans behind their backs...he never speaks to our face this way.

Remember what he said in SF, how we were bitter clingers to our religion and guns?

And of course, this Obama character jumps to a conclusion about the Boston white policeman checking in on a reported house break in--and tells us to go slowwww and easssssy on Nidal Malik Hasan. I got the game now.

We know what Obama really thinks of us. He said as much with the "clinging to guns and religion" remark out in San Francisco off record.

I think I will just post ancient Chinese proverbs for the rest of the night I am so fed up with Washington, D.C. and the Socialists there:

善有善报,恶有恶报,若然不报时晨未到

You are so right!

We definitely have to take our opposition to this traitor and his Socialist minions and their tyranny to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. We have to really turn up the heat to boiling on these people.

The question is: how? what is our plan? what do we have in our “political” arsenal to fight? Yes, we have the Constitution on our side, but there are so many ignorant people in this country. If only we were able to reach them somehow. WE NEED IDEAS FROM EVERYONE.

Everyone has to think about this and not be afraid. Don’t be afraid to tell the truth to your RAT friends and family. They might get mad at you, but if they don’t wise up, families will be torn apart by this govt and even the RAT voters will be subjugated. It’s for their good as well as ours.

We don’t know what our govt has in mind for us. They could end up pulling us out of our homes someday. It’s happened in Poland, Germany, etc. It can happen to us. Nobody should think it can’t happen here any longer.

It’s in the hands of the generals now. At some point the accumulated insults combined with the obvious power grabs, corruption and loss of liberty, all while their men die in foreign wars and the President plays golf, will force them to do the previously unthinkable. There begins the transition to the Second American Republic with a new constitution and new set of laws.

That’s the best case outcome. On the other hand, we could descend quietly into tyranny and third-world status, or things could turn more bloody and horrible than we ever imagined.

hen in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. It is now time that we obey this document...

Their plan is to attack the two Constitutional Ammendments in the Bill of Rights which both offend them and scare them the most. Just watch them now.

That is, the First Ammendment and the Second Ammendment.

This is reflected in all the news media reporting on Nidal Malik Hasan in Texas, as if to fill out a Lee Harvey Oswald type profile in advance. They want the news about him to reflect everything in the favor to seize even more control and emasculate the First and Second Ammendments. Everything and anything but the real fact (he just only a jihadist) will be thrown out there. It is sickening as they do it and we watch it unfold.

I’m not so optimistic. I don’t think Socialism will ever be defeated in this country without armed conflict or at the very least mass casualties (from starvation, exposure, whatever). The people in the cities bred like ants and their desire for both Socialism and racial warfare has simmered and grown. I don’t think they will ever retract those demands. They would die first.

Socialism is merely like the internal combustion engine automobile, and it needs gasoline to run on. That gasoline is tax revenue from the people. When the gasoline runs out, it is simple, the car just proceeds to stall and stop.

No secession, no revolution, no grand uprising to depose the bastards. Just a slow decline into a sort of European Union anonymity and thralldom. The slow boil of a frog is what we experience.

Unless, we decide to make history somehow.

Otherwise we convert the US into a different kind of popular democracy, which generally means rule by a unionized bureaucracy organized to vote.

WE are the extremists? The Americans people are extremists to this President?

Well, are you the one you've been waiting for? Remember his statement: "We are the ones we've been waiting for"... So if you haven't been waiting for yourself, you're not the majority so you must be an extremist!

The problem is called “Career Politicians”

JOIN THE TAX REVOLT
STOP YOUR SPENDING
Don’t give to Washington
Don’t give it to Wall Street.
Don’t put it in the Local Bank
Take your extra cash and bury it in the “back yard”.
And above all tell your “career politicians” why you have stopped spending.

The President of the United States called us Fellators?? (Teabaggers)

The President of the United States called us Fellators??

He called American people, including my mother and my little boys, by a CRUDE SEXUAL TERM because we believe in our Constitutional rights??

SAY IT TO THEIR FACES, MISTER PRESIDENT. I DARE YOU. Look into a grandmother's sweet eyes. Look at my smiling, freckled children. CALL THEM A CRUDE NAME because they love this country and the Constitution.

I am steaming with anger at this.
