Planning under way for Obama holiday
The Topeka Capital-Journal ^ | November 09, 2008

Posted on 11/09/2008 1:52:59 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Plans are being made to promote a national holiday for Barack Obama, who will become the nation's 44th president when he takes the oath of office Jan. 20.

"Yes We Can" planning rallies will be at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. every Tuesday at the downtown McDonald's restaurant, 1100 Kansas Ave., until Jan. 13. The goals are to secure a national holiday in Obama's honor, to organize celebrations around his inauguration and to celebrate the 200th birthday of President Abraham Lincoln, who was born on Feb. 12 1809.

At 7:30 a.m. on Inauguration Day, Obama Cake will be served at the downtown McDonald's, and a celebration is scheduled for 8 p.m. to midnight Jan. 20 at the Ramada Hotel and Convention Center, 420 S.E. 6th.

For more information, contact Sonny Scroggins, (785) 232-3761, 845-6148 or at biasbustersofkansas@yahoo.com; Lamont Lassiter, McDonald's general manager, 608-2739; Ava Chander-Beard, (785) 234-9138, ava.beard@sbcglobal.net; or Rhoda Carr, (785) 220-5883.

Oh my gosh, I just heard on TV an advertisement for the collector’s edition of an Obama coin. Only available for the next 75 days. Anyone else hear it?

57 million people voted to be Governed.

63 million people voted to be Ruled.

Never again will I question how the German people followed Hitler. The cult of personality is revived in a new century.

Whatever day they pick may we find ourselves in deep and earnest prayer.

Wow, just another “prediction” comes to light. Liberal fascism is rising. How fast will depend 0bama, the democrats, and our republicans.

I predict by Christmas 2010, Dec. 25th will no longer be a National Holiday.

YES, I saw that earlier and it made me sick. He even pops up on Noggin (kiddie channel) before the election and now after. Obama everywhere on tv, totally sick.

They are even comparing THAT ONe and his bride Godzilla to the freakin’ Kennedy’s, give me a break!

I am moving to Mars, be back in 2012.

April 15 will be the day that 95% of the Murcan people will get their redistribution checks. They will celebrate Obama (peace be upon him) on that day.

Fascism: A form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion. – Robert O. Paxton, The Anatomy of Fascism

I don't think they're kidding: I'm 48 and I don't remember anything like this after any other election, do you?

Never- and I go back to Truman.

This upcoming "administration" is pegging the Creep-me-out meter to the max, already.

Wonder what else is in store?

Living in Alaska is starting to look really appealing as I'm sure they will probably be the FIRST to secede. This 'holiday' crap is disgusting.

Naw, he's going to make everyday a holiday for the poor and set a 23 hour 7 day work week for the rich to pay for their festivities, food and health care.

They are not kidding 2ndD! This is the of Civil Rights of 2008 and Obama is King. The Obama campaign was orchestrated and run just like the Civil Rights marches etc. years ago. There is no change just going back to the barricades of the 1960s an era that spawned the Saul Alinsky radicals that have taken over and will if not checked, throw capitalism under this run away train making way for the United Socialist States of America.
