When will our pathetic excuses for leaders learn? You can’t give people who are out to get you an opening.
Oh, tear it down and put up a giant gold-plated memorial to Obama. You know you want to.
No matter how hard you squeeze him, Don Lemon will never become lemonade.
What else would he be happy to be a partner too?
To destroy a nation, you must destroy its ideals and its history.
When will they finally admit that what they really want is all white people dead?
How many of our presidents owned slaves?
-—snip-—
GEORGE WASHINGTON (between 250-350 slaves)
- THOMAS JEFFERSON (about 200)
- JAMES MADISON (more than 100)
- JAMES MONROE (about 75)
- ANDREW JACKSON (fewer than 200)
- Martin Van Buren (one)
- William Henry Harrison (eleven)
- JOHN TYLER (about 70)
- JAMES POLK (about 25)
- ZACHARY TAYLOR (fewer than 150)
- Andrew Johnson (probably eight)
- Ulysses S. Grant (probably five)
It’s a commonplace that Abraham Lincoln never trafficked in slaves, much less owned them – indeed, he “freed the slaves.” But here’s the shocker: Although the slave trade had been abolished in the District of Columbia in 1850, slaves inhabited the capital for another 15 years – till the end of the Civil War. Dwell on that thought: Lincoln fought the Civil War in a slave city – the Great Emancipator inhabited a White House staffed by slaves.

One final point. Most historians argue that the biggest challenge the founders failed to confront was the existence of slavery on American soil. Our earliest presidents struggled to find solutions. The most radical proposal in the early days of the republic was to ship slaves and other blacks back to Africa. Jefferson was keen on the idea, believing that blacks would eventually have to be removed from the U.S. or else whites would live in perpetual dread that the slaves would rise up in rebellion. Such fears prompted a later president, James Monroe, to support the creation of the American Colonization Society (founded 1816-1817).
The Society was not just well-intentioned. It raised money, acquired lands in what is present-day Liberia, and supported passage of emancipated slaves, former indentured servants, and free blacks across the Atlantic to the west coast of Africa. The Society named the major settlement in the colony Monrovia in honor of our nation’s fifth president.

It’s a mob-action sort of thing. None of them are thinking rationally. Don’t be a follower.
Down is up, wrong is right. This is America under Communism. Just as they said it would be.
Gay supremacists are marching in city parades and the gay president is flying the gay power flag over government buildings.
‘Finish the mission, kill slave masters’

Ive warned south bashers here for 15 plus years it won’t stop with us
The KKK was founded by Democrats as a post-civil war terrorist insurgency (just like we saw in Iraq).
Jim Crow laws were drafted by Democrats to suppress black Republican votes.
Toss the Democrat party on the scrap heap of history and toss out the Communist Party and CAIR as well.
Isn't he the (slave raping) mascot of the RATs?
Yeah...he is.
George Orwell nailed it in 1984.
“Those who control the present control the past.
Those who control the past control the future.”
Pay close attention to what lemon said. If he's saying it....you know others are as well.
His was a controlled leak to see what reaction, if any, there would be.
We're in dangerous territory and have been since November 2008.
He has a new BFF. Glenn Beck. Naturally.

“...To destroy a nation, you must destroy its ideals and its history.”
The left INVENTED Obama just for this purpose. That is his Marxist job description. And the fools in Congress have let it continue.
