President Obama's "safe schools" czar Kevin Jennings addressed his former organization the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network in Iowa in 2000. In this audio clip, he talks about Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential win and references it back to a Karl Marx quote.

"Never let a serious crisis go to waste. What I mean by that is it's an opportunity to do things you couldn't do before."-Rahm Emanuel Is there any question that Obama's presidency is in crisis? James Taranto: Biden's observation that Republican victory in 2010 would be "the end of the road for what Barack and I are trying to do" is telling. It is an excellent argument for voting GOP next year. However much the Republicans may deserve to lose yet again, the country does not deserve to have done to it what Barack and he are trying to do....

That the political body, like the animal, is liable to violent diseases, which, for a time, baffle the healing art, is a truth which we all acknowledge, and which most of us lament. But as most of the disorders incident to the human frame are the consequence of an intemperate indulgence of its appetites, or of neglecting the most obvious means of safety; so most of the popular tumults which disturb government arise from an abuse of its blessings or an inattention to its principles. A man of a robust constitution, relying on its strength, riots in gratifications which weaken...

With all this talk of racist marches on Washington and racist comments made during presidential speeches and racist outcry over the pResident’s policies, we really should look at the facts.

Here are a couple of joke quotes for fun -- followed by a slew of real quotes made by real racist Democrats.

A lib friend-of-a-friend is pushing this one hard on a chat on Facebook. http://newsone.com/obama/top-10-racist-limbaugh-quotes/ When I try to Google some of the quotes, I only get this same list over and over. Snopes only lists two of them, one he said in the '70s when he was a dj, and he apologized, and he also apologized for the Jesse Jackson remark. But the entry was last up-dated in June of 2007. I can't find a definitive article that refutes or acknowledges all the others. Can anyone help out?

Jones quoted in 1995 book: "As scary as people thought gangsta rap was, it's nothing compared to young people using hip-hop to express what they're going through and targeting the people who are really responsible." "I don't believe the power of the people can be confined to the ballot box. We need to be about the whup-ass. Somebody's f***ing up somewhere. They have names and job descriptions. You have to be creative about how you engage the enemy..."

Bobby Kennedy "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not." John Kennedy "And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." Ted Kennedy "Hey babe, you come here often."

"Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of 'emergency'. It was the tactic of Lenin, Hitler, and Mussolini. In the collectivist sweep over a dozen minor countries of Europe, it was the cry of men striving to get on horseback. And 'emergency' became the justification of the subsequent steps. This technique of creating emergency is the greatest achievement that demagoguery attains." -Herbert Hoover

"If the liberties of America are ever compleatly ruined, of which in my opinion there is now the utmost danger, it will in all probability be the consequence of a mistaken notion of prudence, which leads men to acquiesce in measures of the most destructive tendency for the sake of present ease. When designs are form'd to rase the very foundation of a free government, those few who are to erect their grandeur and fortunes upon the general ruin, will employ every art to sooth the devoted people into a state of indolence, inattention and security, which is forever the...

Found this quote from James Madison while studying about the Nullification cricis: "And in the event of a failure of every Constitutional resort, and an accumuliation of usurpations and abuses rendering passive obedience and non-resistance a greater evil than resistance and REVOLUTION, there can remain but one last resort, the last of all:an apeal from the cancled obligations of the Constiutional compact, to the orginal rights and the law of self preservation.

Then-candidate Sen. Barack Obama: "Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket."

Of many strange moments in President Obama’s Cairo speech, perhaps the strangest is the conclusion: The Holy Quran tells us, Mankind, we have created you male and a female. And we have made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another. The Talmud tells us, The whole of the Torah is for the purpose of promoting peace. The Holy Bible tells us, Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. What does the idea of gender and tribe distinction have to do with peace? The answer is nothing, except that Obama’s speechwriters...
