OVER the years, Ive been deeply moved by the people whove told me they wished they could feel inspired and hopeful about America the way people did when my father was president. This sense is even more profound today. That is why I am supporting a presidential candidate in the Democratic primaries, Barack Obama...
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
I have been saying for some time that Obama would be packaged as the black JFK. Here it comes...
He’s gonna be very hard to beat.
She’s a Dem... and a Lesbian. That should tell you something.
How would she know?
I knew that, but her views lately on immigration is a lot further to the right than Obama’s.
She said that Bush was liberal man of faith and that President Ford was the kind of Republican (in a bad way) that the democrats liked.
It just doesn’t jive.
I was watching Obama speak in SC after his win tonight. I turned to my wife and said, “This guy is scaring me.” The one comparison that came to mind was with Hitler.
Obama is an excellent speaker. However, what do we know about him other than he is for “change”. He has no experience other then a few years in state legislature and a few years as US Senator. Yet, millions of people are willing to vote him into office as our president.
Kennedy DID have brains, and could street fight. Obama has NO brains...plus a Socailist stump speech. JFK was NO Socialist, in fact hated Communsits and the like. JFK would roll in his grave to see what the Democrat Party has become.
JFK had many faults but what his daughter and so many people refuse to recognize is that he was very little like today’s Demagogues (let’s leave aside his reckless libido for a moment).
JFK pursued economic and foreign policies that would be far more consistent with many of today’s Republicans than Democrats. In fact, if a JFK living today could be a Democrat at all he would be a “Scoop Jackson Democrat” like Joe Lieberman, and would find himself completely isolated in a party that yearns to retreat and surrender in the face of the jihadist terrorism.
There was no sabotage of her brother's plane. Her brother was an idiot. He flew an aircraft he wasn't qualified to handle into conditions he wasn't qualified to handle. He could have be tried posthumously for murder, and probably convicted.
ML/NJ
"Please vote for HUSSEIN because my brother is at the bottom of the Atlantic."
He screwed up the Bay of Pigs which brought us to the brink of nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis and then he got the U.S. hip deep into Vietnam.
Obama would be like her father.
Clueless as Commander-in-Chief.
JFK? Um, on the positive side, started a revamp of the military, gave the NASA bureaucracy a tangible and measurable goal, and wanted tax cuts (they were passed in memoriam).
On the negative side, protected the runt of the litter that is still screwing up the country to this day (and also got the middle brother killed), Bay of Pigs, and much, much, more.
ROFL!!! Good one!
JFKs greatest legacy he left us with LBJ nuff said. ;-)
It is based on emotion. Unless Republicans stand up for something real soon, Mr. Ultra liberal Obama is the next President.
The Clintons have taken one upside their collective head and I' betting Bill has 'gone purple' at least once as the results came in.
I hope he knows that getting all red-faced and explosive like that, comes at a price to his health.
Knowing how the Clintons get paranoid, forcing them into an over-kill solution, it's going to get very interesting from now all the way through the biggie in Feb.
"Laissez les bons temps rouler!"
* We just had our Mardi Gras parade this afternoon in the historic St. Andrews section of Panama City, FL.....even in a light, on-and-off misty rain, it worked out just fine.
Easy, Tammy was once the president of NOW, and she is gay. Most of those NOW creeps DEPSISE Republicans, as do Lesbians. Thankd God they hate us.... They made themselves irrelevant after OJ and of course, Clinton.
Very understandable since her brother died a few days before her brother was to announce is candidacy for the NY Senate Seat PIAPS won. The Kennedy Family hates the clintoons because of his [NON-accidental] death.
Seems to run in the clan.
