Planning under way for Obama holiday
The Topeka Capital-Journal ^ | November 09, 2008

Posted on 11/09/2008 1:52:59 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Plans are being made to promote a national holiday for Barack Obama, who will become the nation's 44th president when he takes the oath of office Jan. 20.

"Yes We Can" planning rallies will be at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. every Tuesday at the downtown McDonald's restaurant, 1100 Kansas Ave., until Jan. 13. The goals are to secure a national holiday in Obama's honor, to organize celebrations around his inauguration and to celebrate the 200th birthday of President Abraham Lincoln, who was born on Feb. 12 1809.

At 7:30 a.m. on Inauguration Day, Obama Cake will be served at the downtown McDonald's, and a celebration is scheduled for 8 p.m. to midnight Jan. 20 at the Ramada Hotel and Convention Center, 420 S.E. 6th.

They say to be careful of what you wish for. I think a lot of the Kool-Aid kids will wake up one day and wonder what the heck they were thinking.

Half vanilla, half chocolate.

You are right. What was at first I thought a revelation when explaining how their children will be required to do community service and what guns they will have to give up... has since informed me that “it’s just words, he doesn’t really mean it”.

So, when it’s all the wonderful things he will do, he’s great. But when it’s the bad stuff, he doesn’t really mean it.

I gave up when the third person told me that. I no longer bring it up because I realized that there is no talking to an Obot.

I wonder how Caroline, who just loved her Obama, feels about this.

And how is this not defacing government property?

Oh silly me, it’s Barack. Laws mean nothing.

Just heard yesterday that Obama and Biden are cooking up a
“plan” to solve the illegal immigration problem. They are going to have them all register, pay a small fine,(revenue)learn English and give them citizenship.

Then all other comers just have to pay a registration fee, promise to learn English and they are in Scott free. Hence, what I warned about some time ago, the end of all Conservative opposition. Pretty much a one party controlled government. They will be voting amongst themselves.

The economic mess that will occur will not happen soon enough to stop this from happening either. They will push it before 2010 in order to guarantee their political domination.

I wonder what it is about the creep that sways them to him? My brother in law is a Catholic priest and voted for him. Geeze.....I told hubby we better skip seeing him for the holidays. I wouldn’t be able to keep my mouth shut.

A Catholic Priest?

Perhaps you should bring up Obama’s record of outright infanticide. Where he allows doctors to kill a baby that has survived an abortion. On the grounds that the baby was wanted dead before it’s birth, so it is the doctor’s duty to carry out the mother’s wishes. (Pretty much Obama’s own description of why he supports infanticide.)

You know, because of all the “unnecessary” medical expenses and life support for an “unwanted” life.

Yeah, I heard it. Thought it was a FNC news parody or something when I turned on the TV, was tricked into watching the whole pukefest. “Gold-layered...blah, blah, blah, and the ad I saw was NOT a Presidential gold coin but a commemorative piece of crap with the front/back painted in red/white/blue.

What was so pukey about it is that Obama is not even president yet...but then again, if capitalists can make a quick buck off of stupidity I suppose we ought to rejoice that capitalism has not yet been disposed of.

It is creepy. Something tells me that renting the Lincoln bedroom is going to look classy next to what is coming with this ONE.

I am totally disgusted with my brother in law and I told my husband that if I have to see him over the holidays that I am making a tshirt and it won’t have Frosty the snowman on it. More along the line of shock value.
I have no respect for, nor any use for him any longer. Guess that makes me one of those bitter people.

If they get open borders,more than we already have,it will be an even worse nightmare for the country than we already have. It could bankrupt the country. Or, we could be taking wheel barrels full of worthless dollars to the gas station to buy a gallon of gas.
