Well, Reagan was intelligent and could speak. Oh yeah, Reagan was likeable and didn’t side with America’s greatest enemies.

Obama, the typical sissified crowd that wants a pat on the head for taking a leak and not pissing on themselves.

Washington had it easier than Lincoln.
Hank Aaron had it easier than Babe Ruth.
Jim Brown had it easier than Hugh McElhenny.
Ted Williams had it easier than Bobby Bonds.
Hank Aaron had it easier the Barry Bonds.

“Them that can, DO.... them that can’t, TEACH”
OR are Political Analysts, Sports Commenters. Or Obamas.

Thought it would be an appropriate place to drop this:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/21/opinion/sunday/friedman-how-to-put-america-back-together-again.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

In deference to Friedman, you will note the TWO, YES TWO, TWO LARGE evergreen trees to process the carbon emissions emanating from the half moon drive circle for to the front door entrance.
Do you think those THREE STORY + EVERGREENS were there before human habitation of the Property?? DID GOD IN HIS INFINITE GOODNESS AND GREENESS PUT THEM THERE AFTER TOM MOVED IN???!!

Poor lefties. When the, “You’re a racist!” Fails all they have left is, “Look at how much the poor guy has to deal with!” Pure bull.

President Reagan INTENDED to repair this country, unite its people and IMPROVE things for ALL Americans.

barry is like Lee Harvey Oswald would have been as president - a sympathizer of our ENEMY. HIS intentions, and he made this clear, were to “fundamentally TRANSFORM” the country into his commie, utopian oligarchy and making “white America” pay.

Holy cow, would I love to see a boxing match between Reagan and barry - each as fit as the day they took office.

It's increasingly difficult to discern exactly who is the more arrogantly ignorant liberal.

Is it Barack Obama? Is it Paul Krugman? Or is it Thomas Friedman?

Isn’t this exactly what Friedman has wanted all his life? America is now a Marxist economy just like he has always preached.

Pray America wakes

You can polish a turd all day long, and in the end, you still have a turd.

I’m reminded of the hostages being released as soon as Ronald Reagan became president. Sounds easy, but it would not have been if he came into office apologising for America.

‘one trying to become a leader is able to get people to believe in him. A Genuine Leader (Reagan) gets people to believe in themselves.’

Tom Friedman delivers it by the truckload. What causes people to believe Friedman’s intelligent?

Friedman is a complete Communist POS. We will all be better off when he is six feet under.

Friedman’s an idiot - Obama’s problems are mainly of his own doing - today he came out and verified that he believes the Iraqi army wasn’t able to fight ISIS as well as they should have because they were weakened by Maliki’s purging of Sunni and Kurdish elements to put his own people in their place - which wouldn’t have happened had we left troops in country to strengthen their backbone and competence in 2011 as Bush had arranged - time spent listening to anything Friedman has to say is time wasted.....
