Yet he did not go into one black neighborhood and Maxine has called him out on it. Blacks have to be waking up to his game.

I remember when I was a kid in the 50’s no one bothered you, except when you screwed up generally a neighbor. Then I was exiled from Idaho to Mass and people started bothering me for no reason leading to a life long hatred of the Rat party.

I retired to a very small NH town, people no longer bother me, they might if I didn't pay my government rent.

“Mark Steyn is a treasure of the world!”

Indeed he is. This column is definitely a keeper.

“my wife says obama will come to Christ.”

Except in Obama’s case, he would expect Christ to come to him. In his mind, he is divine, not Christ.

LBJ polled at 43% in 1967-68, and so, chose not to run. Although this rings a familiar bell, now, we should not assume that BO will also choose not to run- his ego is far bigger than, even, LBJ’s. Besides, the members of the “committee” don’t want to be run out of the WH, not when they are pushing so much of their socialist agenda through.

No one picks communists and pedophiles for roles, doesn’t even bother to fake going to church, celebrates ramadan & etc. if they plan a 2nd term.

Sure you do, once you realize that 20% of the voters are hard core leftists and another 40% are brain dead sheeple who only care about their little bubble of a world. Then add in the almost total allegiance of the media along with the first ever added bonus of a presidential race card.

He's going to lose, but not by much, IMHO.

Sooner or later every knee will bow before the Lord (rom 14:11). So yes, your wife is 100% correct, he will come to Christ at some point.

IIRC, LBJ had a pair of beagles, named “Him” and “Her”.

Yankees -- the Hurons and Narragansetts learned to hate them, Virginians and Carolinians learned to hate them. Now it's everyone else's turn. Even their cousins are like that back in Norfolk, England -- dour and pushy and judgmental and officious.

Someday my wise prescription will leak out from FR to the rest of the Union, and the People of the United States will kick New England out of the Union -- and downstate New York and Longgk Guyland right behind them ('cept for Staten Island).

Give 'em the heave, and see how much better the rest of America becomes overnight. I promise, it'll be like opening a window and turning off a noisy commercial.

That picture does look remarkably like Mussolini posing for a photo.
