Did it seem odd to you that even the Fox all-star panel would have us believe that the President with the most micromanaged image in recent memory had no control or influence whatsoever over the preparation, format, and tenor etc. of the commercialized, pep rally memorial we witnessed this week, and that the White House can blame the embarrassment entirely on the University of Arizona? The entire event was about Captain Greek Columns - who gave a half hour speech and his time to shine and show off his magical healing abilities.
Togethere We Thrive sure sounded a lot more campaign like than memorial like. Usually the themes for memorials assuming theyre meant to feature those were supposedly remembering are not about thriving or prospering or anything of that sort. It was a jarring oddity. Now we have an idea where it came from. Not only did the slogan for this Obama 2012 campaign kickoff, Together We Thrive, originate from President Obamas campaign organization Organizing for America, but it was the title of a post calling for revolution:
For too long Americans have been set one against the other. It is a side affect of a free market society, Berry IV posted. How can profits be maximized, how can I get the work down for the lowest possible costs. This continually sets one group against the other, especially in the blue collar sectors of America. It has become part of the American Business model, whether it was indentured servants, slaves picking cotton, sharecroppers, the industrious people that built the railroads or todays migrant workers. As long as we remain divided, fighting for the scraps that America has to offer it will be one group against the other.Revolution was just a metaphor, you say, not a call for political violence? Doesnt matter anymore, apparently.What I see in Obama is a chance for revolution. (Italics CFPs). A chance for every group to be heard; A chance to live the American dream that has been denied to so many
In a previous career, I was the global leader of Diversity for a global fortune 500 corporation. I have studied the affects of diverse groups working together and the results can not be denied. Together we Thrive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But worst of all is that according to Judi McLeod of the Canada Free Press, at the bottom of the t-shirts is the DNC slogan Rocking America and Rocking the Vote.
Heres what McLeod reports:
University of Arizona brass did not originate the Together We Thrive T-shirt. They merely recycled it for Obamaand recycled it in time for what should have been a dignified Memorial for the dead.
If you were a mourner who took home a Together We Thrive T-shirt have a look at the bottom of your shirt. Rocking America and Rocking the Vote is a common theme of the DNC, and its right there on your Memorial T-shirt memento.
Welcome to the era of Obama, where cheering and standing ovations, for the first time in history, became part of the Requiem for the Dead.
If that is true and it should be easily verifiable as thousands of people now possess those shirts Im not sure how that will be explained; the University of Arizona distributed and reportedly purchased the shirts but not without the knowledge or approval of the Presidents team. They cant simply be unused Obama campaign T-Shirts (though that would be bad enough) because they specifically say Tucson and America on them. I cant wait to hear the explanation on this one, but at the very least, if it is true that those T-Shirts had that DNC rocking the vote slogan on them, dont you dare try to blame this whole disgraceful event and the T-Shirts solely on the University.
My goodness.

Thanks for that Major Matt Mason.
>> T-shirts contained Rocking the Vote DNC slogan
T-shirts from when?
Absolutely disgusting. The leftists/marxists would literally stand in the middle of aborted babies parts if they thought it would get them votes. They have no shame, no conscience. Their lust for power knows no bounds.
I’ve been sensing this too. But I have to ask, how would you be able to spot your enemy? Fellow Americans. It won’t be like the civil war in the 1800’s where uniforms were worn.
Why do we never hear the left touting Piven?
They never mention her.
More than anything Obama has ever done, this should demonstrate to the American people that he is nothing but an opportunist who will do anything to hold onto his power. Elect him for another term, and America will not survive.
She is a secret, at least they think she is.
We need to understand that the rats havent any common sense whatsoever. Think about it..they havent any common sense.
Little Bunny Foo Foo went hoping through the forest picking up field RATS and bopping them on their heads...
You’re tagline is correct.
"Weeding" sounds more like Big Brother in this connection and Massachusetts no less. Very scary indeed.
EXACTLY!
To the democrats everything is a marketing opportunity and Obama has made it worse.
Think about the constant onslaught of logos and sloguns we were bombarded with during his 2008 campaign and even after the election.
And now his creepy style is all over this classless mourn-fest.
