For those of you who ever believed that Obama might be the messiah and your faith has been shaken, you must continue reading.
For those of you who are still true believers in the Obama messiah you can continue reading anyway.
To both groups I say: We told you so.
Obama is hopeless and he’s going to make the Democrats hopeless too if you are not careful.
We can agree to disagree about whether healthcare is a human right. We can agree to disagree about the role in government in our lives. We can agree to disagree about the size and scope of government. We can even agree to disagree about how to best engage the rest of the world to secure American interests.
But certainly we must all agree that American security under this president has been a compendium of strategic, military and foreign policy disasters.
Not since the U.S. lost China to the Communists and North Korea invaded South Korea—leading to two wars in Asia-- have American security interests been so deranged.
Not since Chamberlain gave away the Sudetenland in the former Czechoslovakia-- thereby depriving Western powers not just their only legitimate, strong military ally, but also a fortified defensive mountain position that almost certainly would have been too tough for the Wehrmacht to crack-- has civilization been in such peril.
And not only does our president refuse to see our peril, he indulges our peril by saying that the people behind ISIS: 1) need jobs and 2) have legitimate grievances.
One can not legitimately take this president seriously anymore.
Not even, you, my Democrat friends.
Everyone in society has legitimate grievances.
I am Irish. My ancestors were harassed and occupied by the British for a longer period than the Arabs lived under the British Crown.Yet somehow I find the will to go on living without beheading people, without putting them to the torch, without cutting off the genitalia of women.
In fact my surname is English, so somewhere along the line, both English and Irish learned to get along.
I am Irish. My descendants were harassed and discriminated against by white folks in this country even before Italians were.
And if you think that discrimination against me is just a relic of the 19th century, then I am Catholic too.
And within this year my salvation has been questioned publicly by Protestants who wouldn’t know Martin Luther from Martin Luther King.
Yes somehow, in all of this, I find the will to go on living without beheading people, without putting them to the torch, without cutting off the genitalia of women.
There is no negotiating with the wickedness that loots and murders. And that it is done in the name of God should heighten our fury, not diminish it; it should raise us up to righteous indignation on behalf of both God and humanity-- for the believer and unbeliever alike.
How long will you find sophisticated reasons to support, enable and encourage Obama in his delusions?
You know he’s wrong. And we do too.
Especially on ISIS. His delusions here are on full display.
And we told you so.
If the economy improves, foreign policy and security will be the death of you; if the economy does not improve you are finished anyway.
“You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing lately,” Oliver Cromwell told the Rump Parliament, “Depart, I say; and let us have done with you. In the name of God,—go!”
HENCE the democrats desire to get amnesty through any mean possible.
My parents are hopeless Obamatons. They have a shrine in their house. They would be the first to march in to a gas chamber if Obama ordered it. Obama can do no wrong in their eyes. When confronted with this they are so blinded by the hope and change smoke and the usual “at least Obama cares.” It is dusturbing and I don’t keep in touch with them much anymore. It is cultish.
Most other Obamatons are so blinded by pure emotion and the messianic worship they invested in hope and change they will never be convinced they were wrong.
Indeed. But many of the Obama-bots don't see it. We are going to get hit again and still, like good little sheep they will bleat it's Bush's fault.
I feel for you. NOT kidding.
They serve The Liar. The Truth is not in them.
Thoughtful...but the response will be another double-down, raise the stakes and hope Obama stumbles into a win....Any kind of win will do...real or imagined.
I would apply this admonition to most of Congress too.
Were they my parents and true believers to the degree you describe, I would have to consider a disavowal of our relationship (in writing) with clear and compelling reasons as to why this action is necessary. But that is just my opinion and based exclusively on the very limited understanding I have of your situation.
That figures, doesn't it?
Silence is not a strong weapon of the left.
I have told many of relatives, in writing, that I will never again have anything to do with them. As far as I’m concerned they are enemies of this country. That makes them my enemy.
Condolences. It isn’t the Obamatoms I am worried about. It is the ones who believe Hillary will do even better that get my goat.
Somehow I find the will to go on living without beheading people, without putting them to the torch
It shows you are the one who doesn’t know your history. It is YOUR institution that is famously known for putting “people to the torch.” If the Pope could have gotten hold of Martin Luther, they would have put him to the torch. Like they did John Huss, William Tyndale, and thousands of others who refused to bow the knee to Rome.
It is not ISIS that is famously known for burning people alive, it is your tyrannical institution. ISIS is copying the precedent set by the RCC.
You can only wish Protestants are ignorant of history.
In other news, What Did Hillary Accomplish as secretary of state?
Raising 2 BILLION Dollars for the Clinton Endowment from Outside the U.S.
“One of my liberal friends told me yesterday that Islam came to America with the black slaves from Africa.”
Then there would have been some evidence of Islamic belief among the slaves, as there was animist and pseudo-Christian. However, there was ZERO evidence of any Islamic influence; not one single trait ANYWHERE!
You do know, I’m sure, that Protestants eagerly burned their dogmatic enemies as well, don’t you? Read up on the history of Germany in the 16th and 17th centuries, for a start.
Burning heretics and witches was not the exclusive monopoly of the RCC: There is enough blame to go around on that score.
Just sayin’.
Protestants were burning people lastweek?
No matter. Got you down as agreeing with obama. Got it.
