The key point Obamessiah made was that “rich people” should be paying more than waitresses. He refused to concede that this is INCOME REDISTRIBUTION and a SOCIALIST tenet, much as O’Reilly tried to get him to just freakin’ admit it.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

I don’t think it was too difficult. If I remember correctly (I’ve been taking down yard decorations all week so..) I think it was just a wire almost rectangle (3 sides) and the sign slipped over that frame.

[workerbee]

Too bad O’Reilly didn’t say “There’s nothing wrong with you paying more, IF YOU CHOOSE TO, but having the government holding a gun to your head forcing you to pay more is SOCIALISM, you jackass!”

[workerbee]

Socialism = Neighborliness.

Who knew?

[rightwingintelligentsia]

BOR wouldn’t say that, because he buys into a lot of the populist BS himself.

[wilco200]

“but having the government holding a gun to your head forcing you to pay more is SOCIALISM, you jackass!”

Again. In Obama’s mind socialism is just being “NEIGHBORLY” I just about fell out my chair when he said that

[IMissPresidentReagan]

I think he spells it Pflouffe or some such nonsense like that. I signed up during the primary to get Obama and Hillary email. Never received very many messages. After Sarah Palin was announced, I get 2-3 a day. I say they are scared.

[Fawn]

It's someones opinion that knows her. You should talk about posting BS...like the pic of sarah in a pantsuit...

.....don't make me come over there.

[American Quilter]

Thanks, IMPR.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

I made a donation on McCains site and bought a bumper sticker ...wonder when I’ll see that. Probably Nov 3rd?

[RetSignman]

That is true and they are in favor of liberals, they do their best to promote a dim and when reality is evident to all, they come out with REAL numbers so they can keep their ‘credibility’ until the next election.

Look at the past with these pollsters and you’ll also see the present and the future.

[gopsue]

“Biden wets himselfe when Palin’s name is mentioned”

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rush, please consider reading this on air...

Bill Ayers: Violent resistance not necessarily the answer

How long after today’s statement will we hear Barack Obama declare that “this is not the Bill Ayers that I knew”? Unfortunately for Obama, Ayers continues to show that he’s the same unrepentant domestic terrorist we all knew, and whom Obama called “mainstream” on his campaign site until his team wisely scrubbed it in the spring. In a cartoon on his site, Ayers doesn’t express an ounce of remorse for his campaign of violence and terror.

Here’s the full statement, as provided by Jake Tapper, who can’t believe the part I bolded:

“It’s impossible to get to be my age and not have plenty of regrets. The one thing I don’t regret is opposing the war in Vietnam with every ounce of my being.

“During the Vietnam war, the Weather Underground took credit for bombing several government installations as a dramatic form of armed propaganda. Action was taken against symbolic targets in order to declare a state of emergency. But warnings were always called in, and by design no one was ever hurt.

“When I say, ‘We didn’t do enough,’ a lot of people rush to think, ‘That must mean, “We didn’t bomb enough s—.”‘ But that’s not the point at all. It’s not a tactical statement, it’s an obvious political and ethical statement. In this context, ‘we’ means ‘everyone.’

“The war in Vietnam was not only illegal, it was profoundly immoral, millions of people were needlessly killed. Even though I worked hard to end the war, I feel to this day that I didn’t do enough because the war dragged on for years after the majority of the American people came to oppose it. I don’t think violent resistance is necessarily the answer, but I do think opposition and refusal is imperative.”

First, let’s get the quote back into its context, which Ayers elides in this new spin. The entire quote was ”I don’t regret setting bombs. I feel we didn’t do enough.” He clearly was talking tactics in the context of that quote, and nothing he says today changes that.

But even beyond that, Ayers offers no remorse at all for his actions. He never even offers the possibility that he should apologize for his crimes. In the September 2001 article that ran on the day that 3,000 Americans died in terrorist attacks, Ayers said that he’d consider doing it all over again:

So, would Mr. Ayers do it all again, he is asked? ”I don’t want to discount the possibility,” he said.

And in today’s statement, Ayers says that violent resistance is not necessarily the answer — as if in a democracy, one has to consider that among the options for political change. Is that what Barack Obama calls mainstream? Under what circumstances would Obama see violent resistance in America as a mainstream option?

The more one sees and hears from Bill Ayers, the clearer Obama’s connections to radicals becomes. Hopefully, we will hear even more from Ayers and Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger in the next eight weeks.

thx for the heads up......so basically a half assed effort from one BOR

[advertising guy]

BOR is a populist w/ bb’s for brass

[MHGinTN]

Have you paused to ask yourself what is the source of your jealousy toward Sarah Palin? If you continue to let it run your opinion you will become more bitter.

[Clint N. Suhks]

That propaganda is on the Huffington Post.

[wilco200]

“hx for the heads up......so basically a half assed effort from one BOR”

For BOR it was a good job (and better than most MSM interviews) I just wish BOR would stop with the passive-aggressive “I agree with you Barack” crap.

Just ask the questions and followup, no need to try and become the guy’s best buddy.
