This speech has an otherworldly quality to it...
"People of Berlin, people of the world,'' Obama said, "this is our moment, this is our time.''
"Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others!"

...and share its benefits more equitably.'' That plays well when you throw your arms around the world. I have no earthly idea what that portends or what it is that he imagines he is going to change. Sounds all very Marxy to me, Mr. Soucheray.

I would liken the situation to one where a medical school was seeking a new attending physician for it program in emergency medicine. They have narrowed it down to two candidates. One has been a doc, working in a big city hospital for years, the other has only recently finished his residency and worked for a spell at a walk-in clinic. While the school is deciding which one is better for the position they have to kill some time. The experienced doc heads for the ER where the new attending will spend most of his time. He talks to staff, cheers up a few patients, gets a feel for how the place is different from his present position. The other is storming all over the region, visiting trauma centers, trying to get a crash course in emergency care! My question would be, if you're a resident in this particular program which attending would you rather learn from?
Or better still, if you were arriving at a level one trauma center by helicopter which doc would you prefer to see standing over you in the ER?

A great column... up until the point he repeated the liberal (US) media lie that there were 200,000 people there. According to German papers the number was more like 20,000.

"...One major volcanic eruption would put us in our place..."Indeed. Or an asteroid. There's always the chance of an asteroid strike between now and January, making this whole election thing moot. If Obama is elected, I think I'd prefer to take my chances with the asteroid strike.
Of course, with Obeymao's godly powers, he could probably flick an enormous space rock away like a flea, while doing a 70 pound curl in front of a swooning reporterette, all without sweating a drop. We are truly the luckiest humans in history to have this messiah among us, seeking to protect us from ourselves as he simultaneously heals our ailing solar system. I heard he's going to China to make sure it doesn't rain during the Olympics. His mere presence will provide such a burning light that all precipitation will cease during his stay. He will then leap big oceans in a single bound, back to America in time for the convention, where he will weave his magical web of teleprompted oration. Like a spider snaring the hapless fly that carelessly wanders too close to those enticing silken strings, so the promised one will sink his teeth into the soft, mushy brains of every unsuspecting clueless idiot.

In Germany, Dr. Obama could have gone to Lundstahl to visit wounded soldiers and Marines. He went to the gym instead. There is your proof.

A person who truly cared for the troops would sneak over there at 2 am if need be, just to talk to some who were having trouble sleeping. Obama is just another Hillary as far as I'm concerned.
I can't believe that the electorate would even consider voting a person into office about whom so many questions are swirling. I'm sure my heart can stand another four or eight years like the Clintons gave us. Every day it's a different scandal, a different problem.
We've just about reached the point that no one worth having in the office will want to run for it, let alone actually occupy it.

Barack “O’Brahma”, anti-American sacred cow, can say he’s been there, “dung” that. The more he leaves the more they step in it. And it’s the greatest thing sinced sliced bread, too. What a load of bullsh*t.

"Barack Obama was touring Europe and sounding vaguely un-American..." There was nothing vague about it -- the creep declared his loyalty to "the world" over America.

G. K. Chesterton said that when people stop believing in the God of the Bible, they don’t begin to believe in nothing, rather they will believe anything.

"This is the moment when we must build on the wealth that open markets have created and share its benefits more equitably.''
No, Barry, it's not, you commie dweeb. The wealth was not created by open markets. It was created by individuals in businesses they created. To the degree that these individuals were able to supply to each what the other wanted at mutually agreed-upon prices without interference by third party gangsters (whether governmental or non-governmental) using force or threats or force to rob them, they created wealth. The business relationships that exist untrammeled by government or criminal spoliation is the open market. It is not created by governments. It is only restricted by governments; more specifically, it's only restricted by people in government who try to manipulate things mostly for their own benefit; sometimes, even worse, it's restricted by people in the government for what they think is someone else's benefit.
Bottom line, Barry: The businesses don't belong to you and your tribe of redistributionist a-holes. The wealth the businesses create don't belong to you and your tribe of redistributionist a-holes. They only thing you and your tribe of redistributionist a-holes deserve is a place on the ash heap of history. Get dumped.
