The selective modesty of Barack Obama
By Charles Krauthammer Friday, July 9, 2010
Remember NASA? It once represented to the world the apogee of American scientific and technological achievement. Here is President Obama's vision of NASA's mission, as explained by administrator Charles Bolden: "One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math; he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science and math and engineering."

yes, the audience matters, and in the Washington Post no less, but by ignoring the fact that this is not the country that Obama “belongs” too, he hides the ultimate motive...It is not a matter of modesty, it is a matter of destruction and recreation in a new order.
Here is another “wonder” for you -—Tancredo calling Obama America’s greatest threat yesterday. This from a guy who voted to seat him as President....
If you concede his legitimacy, and thus show your complete and utter ignorance of the Constitution, do you think latter you have should be respected for your whining?
It all rolls together...once you become complicit the guilt follows.

The title has just been changed to what it should be. It read “just another Conservative idiot” or some such...
Liberal spy from moveon.org probably.
“and like it or not, this is “Obama’s country”
Really?
Prove it......

so you’re done.

Long before Orwells's "1984", there was another book that laid out the blueprint for everything we are seeing today.
It was a book that predicted the downfall of this country, the 3rd worlding of America and the absolute corrution of our political system and cultural ideals. The book is by Ayn Rand and is called Atlas Shrugged. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. If you have read it, read it again. I have read this book ~6 times and am getting ready to read it again because each time I read it, I gain more understanding of what she was writing about. IMO, Atlas Shrugged should be the conservative's Bible.
Oh, thanks
I've been amazed by Obama's arrogance. The crowning blow for me was his autobiography, which it appears he didn't write. Still, to write an autobiography when you have done absolutely nothing tells me a lot about the narcissism of the man.
Thanks...

No, the link to the Washington Post is legitimate. Krauthammer’s article apparently ran in both issues. But the articles headline was changed for this thread.
The problem with Obama is the same problem Communists have had forever.
They are the proverbial dog chasing after the car. “I caught the car, now what?” That sums up Obama’s Presidency.

Nah, I don’t think so. Just a single issue person...
I did something very very bad...not sure either what it was, in my haste perhaps....
you know alot of these freeper types - form over function (or content for that matter)....
live and learn....
The Big Boo
I did.
He is an idiot on one or two issues but overall he is nowhere near an idiot.
ping
no...the quote was “his own country’s”, meaning “his own country’s modesty”. The “own” means Obama’s country meaining the county that Obama claims or is from.
FCS we don’t even know if he is a U.S. Citizen...and here you are passing on that.
Practice reading English, it’s a skill that will serve you well.
