Hussein Obama wants us all to live like his relatives in their huts back in Kenya. Meanwhile, like John Edwards, he and Mean Michelle bask in all the affluence and privileges of America’s elite black class.

What a hypocrite!

When Obama gets a 1500 sq ft house and his wife does the cooking, I will consider turning my thermostat up.

Not really. You're right that the source of controlling one's indulgence, the virtue of “temperance” is found in the recognition of the sine of “gluttony.”

But in the modern fascist state that Obama represents, temperance and gluttony have been replaced by the secularist “common good.” While that may be promulgated as a new virtue by Statists, experience has taught us that the “common good” is not for the good of the people, but to aid the political and economic survival of a totalitarian state that cannot compete with individualistic and especially competitive behaviors.

When he loses, and he WILL lose, what are the libs and race pimps going to do when they find out it was racist white DEMOCRATS that didn’t vote for him and voted for McCain instead?

They'll do what liberals always do--ignore the facts and blame their troubles on republicans.

He believes in a perfectly even distribution of income even though people contribute unequally to the economic system.

Oh, not quite perfectly even. I'm pretty sure he has no intention of HIS family living in a 750 sq ft public housing unit, eating only what the food rations allow.

When liberals say “we” in the context of sacrificing some right or consumable that Americans have always enjoyed, the correct translation is “You peons”.

And BTW Hillary, if eight percent is “excess profit”, what do we call the millions you got for your “book”, and that Bubba gets for his “speeches” and his “library”?

And that’s bad? Maybe it will help drive down the obesity rate in this country and make for healthier americans.

Mandated by the government? You want the government to dictate how much people can eat and how much they should weigh?

>>>This is America isnt it?

Not for much longer. Only difference between Obama & McCain is how fast we go down the crapper.

For some reason that’s a scary picture. All I can say is “cult of personality.”

Bad apples spoil the whole bunch.

Nobody wants to admit the following things about our schools:

1. The demographics of a school almost always give a prediction, usually accurate to about 75%, of how well it will perform relative to other area schools.

2. Regardless of demographics, poor performing schools are more due to a lack of concern and value in education among the kids, than lack of “funding” for the school or lack of good teachers. A ghetto thug that flunks in DC will flunk at Winston Churchill High in Potomac, Maryland, and probably bring other kids down with him. Aside from true learning disabilities, schools that perform poorly usually do so because the kids don’t give a sh*t and that comes from their parents either ignoring them, (or lack of a FATHER) or because the parents themselves are uneducated and/or don’t instill in the kids the value of education. On the flip side, educated parents, or, parents who value education, tend to have kids that do well in school. Again, there are always exceptions.
