That earthquake everybody is gonna feel, in an area that doesn’t get earthquakes, is Lincoln’s body spin breaking the sound barrier.

This just gets more and more embarrassing.
THese symbolic “gestures” are made to order for
starry-eyed adolescents-—a large part of Obama voters
will increasingly pack it in, and accept less and less from
him as they scale down their expectations. Knowing this, his Administration will put themselves in permanent “we didn’t know how bad it was” mode, as they go about forcing socialism down our throats once again. He’ll need TWO full terms to fully wreck America.
Yes, go to the theater......
I know one where “My Kenyan Cousin” is currently in rehearsal.

Abraham Lincoln was willing to sacrifice >500,000 American lives to expand the strength of the Federal Government. Want to bet Obama will do even more?

Earlier this year, when asked which book, aside from the Bible, he would find essential in the Oval Office, Obama said, "Team of Rivals,” Doris Kearns Goodwin's 2005 bestseller

I suspect it'll be The Post-American World, by Fareed Zakaria

Is it big enough for his over inflated ego?

Hopefully there won’t be a Koran under it.

I guess he didn’t want to use a bible from his own church, the church of hate.

The theme for Obama's inaugural ceremony - "A New Birth of Freedom” is taken from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.

How Orwellian.

And meanwhile, thousands of unborn children will have their unalienable right to life viciously ripped away on the very day of this blasphemous spectacle of deception.

Speaking of civil war — There is mucho talk on the Internet — serious talk — I would add...that the country is entering a period when the Second U.S. Civil War is possible.

Maybe our 44th president shares the same concerns...what with the Lincoln symbolism and all. I grant you he has a point because if civil war breaks out during his Administration, the Patriots will be the rebels.

Another interesting parallel is that if civil war breaks, the South and Southwest will again be the center of resistance to the “Tyranny of the Republic.”

Well the old folks here always said, “The South will rise again!”

Should we get out “The Bonnie Blue Flag?”

“We are a band of brothers,

And native to the soil,

Fighting for our liberty...”

That’s nothing, his daughter has already said she will do her homework on Lincoln’s desk (true story).

Hope the paste doesn’t leave stains.

Obama does not consider those fetuses to be any more human than slave owners considered their “property” to be human and deserving of rights.

He said that it was above his pay grade to determine when it becomes a baby.

Can you be “a little bit” pregnant? There is your answer.
