"It's been a long, tough journey. But we have made some incredible strides together. Yes, we have. But the thing that we all ought to remember is that as much as good as we have done, precisely because the challenges were so daunting, precisely because we we were inheriting so many challenges, that we're not even halfway there yet. When I said 'change we can believe in' I didn't say 'change we could believe in tomorrow.' Not change we can believe in next week. We knew this was going to take time because we've got this big, messy, tough democracy," President Obama said at a campaign fundraiser in Chicago on Wednesday night.

The immortal words of Charlton Heston keep bouncing around in my head.

So what words were you referring to?

[MestaMachine]

“From my cold dead hands.”

That is the only way “they” will win this country from us. Period.

Shepard Fairey is the 'artist' (commie propagandist) who created the "Hope" and "Change" posters for Obama.

From Shepard Fairey's official website (ObeyGiant.com):

Check it out! I got a thank you note from Barack Obama. If he is elected, maybe I have a get out of jail free card. All kidding aside, I’m honored to be acknowledged by someone so important to the future of our country. Also, the Obama campaign asked me to do a poster illustration for sale on their site. It should be out next week on barackobama.com.-Shepard

Here is the 'thank you' letter Barack Obama sent to Shepard Fairey:
"Dear Shepard, I would like to thank you for using your talent in support of my campaign. The political messages involved in your work have encouraged Americans to believe they can help change the status quo. Your images have a profound effect on people, whether seen in a gallery or on a stop sign. I am privileged to be a part of your artwork and proud to have your support. I wish you continued success and creativity.

Sincerely, Barack Obama.'"

“From my cold dead hands.”

Thanks. I don’t recall him saying that. Is it a line from a film he did?

[MestaMachine]

No. From an NRA Convention speech.

And now he has his very own Politboro (also known as "Super Congress" or some such nonsense). USSA is on the way.

I'm really glad I don't have any children.
