Obama’s new strategy after a weekend in the Virgin Islands, wish away the Rev. Wright.

"Obama’s new strategy after a weekend in the Virgin Islands, wish away the Rev. Wright."

And maybe his wife.

George Bush called this the ownership society but what he really meant is you’re on your own society.

Gotta admit, that's a pretty clever line...

“George Bush called this the ownership society but what he really meant is you’re on your own society”

And for those of us who want government to leave us alone, it sounds pretty good.

Ownership does mean you can be on your own. I’m certainly on my own.

.......pull yourself up by your bootstraps you’re on your own......

It worked for me and worked well.
I can recommend it.

Go suck an egg and howl at the moon, Mr. Obama

He again condemned Wright’s more extreme comments, but did defend him:

Memo to Obama: Condemning and defending at the same time doesn't work.

“I do have to remind people though this is somebody who was preaching three sermons at least a week for 30 years"

20 years of which were attended by you...

"and got boiled down and found five or six of his most offensive statements

You mean, as opposed to his merely moderately offensive statements?
There is no doubt in my mind that what we saw in those five or six statements was a very accurate sampling of his entire repertoire. And even IF they were just isolated incidents, they are horrible and inexcusable. And still you defend him?

and boiled that down to…half minute sound clip and just played it over and over again partly because it spoke to some of the racial divisions that we have in this country and tapped into those divisions."

Yeeeaaahhh...and partly because he's a racist assclown that you listened to, funded, and obviously thought highly of for all these years, even titling your book after one of his sermons.

This is an issue that will NOT go away, if I have anything to say about it.

This is starting to look like Hussein vs. the Clintons and McCain. Maybe we will get a McCain-Clintons ticket out of it. It might get us the lowest voter %age turnout ever.

You may think it is a clever line, but it is a very old line that ODumbo just stole. I think it was about five years ago that I first heard that line.

Obama is deeply rooted in socialism.
What I need from the government is protection from the
bros. in his hood! The Reverend did a real good job
in the black communistity!

The violence in Obama’s neighborhood is likely worse than in Baghdad.

ROFL... I was just going to post — I wonder who said it first! Obama (or his speechwriter) sure has a knack for plagiarism doesn’t he. One wonders if he has ANY original ideas!

ROFL... Just looked on Google — It’s almost a DIRECT QUOTE from 2 of Hillary’s speeches!

The first time she used the phrase was on Aug. 15 in Iowa...

Here’s the one on Sept. 17, 2007 which is SOOOO close! LOL (I just saw a montage the other day of Obama using the Robber Baron line as well...)

“Clinton hammered at President Bush, saying he has run the country in a way reminiscent of the robber barons of the industrial age.

“They call it the ownership society,” she said. “I call it the you’re on your own society.””
