Lyndon pledged to take care of the black families - as long as there Wasn’t a man in the house - did lots to keep those families together, didn’t it!

Jefferson thought his term as U.S. President unworthy of his tombstone. Writer of the Declaration of Independence, Virginia Statute of Religious Freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia.

Truly one of the greatest Americans to ever live.

Lincoln - destroyed state’s rights
FDR - Established Socialist principles into American mainstream
LBJ - created a permanent enslaved class to govt hand outs.

Obama - is a Communist. In his mind, he is right up there.

I laughed listening to Beckel trying to explain this away with bumbling words. For once can the MSM be trusted...

Was it on The Five? I'll be sure to watch the replay tonight.

Why would they do that?

No need to waste valuable airtime with something CBS is sure the viewers already know.

Correct. Many of the pathologies that society is currently experiencing (hip-hop culture is rampant with our youth) trace to the fatherless homes created by LBJ.

“I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president — with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln — just in terms of what we’ve gotten done in modern history,”

‘possible’?! ROFLMAO

He might possibly be fit to wipe Jimmy Carter’s a&&.

Yes, the Five. He was hard to comprehend with everyone else calling him out
on his typical spin.

I think LBJ was arguably more destructive than Jimmy Carter.

It wasn’t edited over live radio...And in Obama’s mind he is what he claims to be. Anyone who insists he’s not a dyed in the wool Commie is mistaken. That assertion and if you review what he’s done so far should leave no question.

Why would they do that?

CBS had to make room for some commercials.

We have a mighty tough row to hoe ahead of us. Times will improve but I doubt that most of us alive today will ever see boom times and serious economic growth of the private sector. We owe too much money... even if we were to shrink the government by 75%... it will be a lifetime before our books ever get close to balance.

Our government spent 413 BILLION in just interest payments alone last year (2010). We spent more on interest payments than the Department of Health and Human Services... the Department of Transportation... the Department of Energy... the Department of Veteran Affairs... the Department of Justice... HUD... the Department of Homeland Security... the Department of Agriculture... the Department of Commerce... the Treasury Department and the Department of Labor... and the Small Business Administration... COMBINED!!!

Since 1988, we have spent over 8 TRILLION in interest payments alone. By 2021 the CBO says interest payments will amount to 1.1 TRILLION a year... that is if interest rates do not rise between now and then.

If the government stopped spending a single penny... no spending of any kind... and we paid toward our debt at a rate of 100 Million dollars a day... it would take 389 years to pay off our National debt.

...in Obama’s mind he is what he claims to be.

In the minds of most Americans, the days until election 2012 cannot come fast enough.

And your point is? None of these make the man a great president. US Grant won the Civil War for Pete's sake!

Speaking of which, while Jefferson was the scribe of the Declaration, because he was one of the youngest delegates and had excellent penmanship, its content was a group effort. A majority of the great lines are not his.

...fatherless homes created by LBJ.

&&

No LBJ fan here, but to claim he “created” fatherless homes is ridiculous. He enabled the growth of this horrible disease in the culture, but he did not create it.

with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln.


Key word here is POSSIBLE. He’s not a narcissist. He’s a megalomaniac. The real question has come down to are we as crazy for freedom as he is to take it from us.
