For the first time in a generation one of the world's most elite clubs met yesterday: all the former living US presidents, together with Barack Obama, the man soon to join them as the Oval Office's next occupant.
The idea, first hatched by Mr Obama during a meeting with President Bush last month, saw the outgoing and incoming commander-in-chief line up before the cameras with Jimmy Carter, George Bush Senior and Bill Clinton, before a private lunch...

All Presidents have ended speeches with “God Bless the United States of America.
Obama will end his with “Allahu Akbar.” Obama will make Carter look like a success. Get ready for tougher times.
Terrorists around the world are dancing in the streets and cheering, spinning an ‘bama slogan, “He’s the one we’ve been waiting for.”
I hope they at least let Jimmuh empty the ashtrays.
......‘bama slogan,....
He is the Hi Yellow Tide
Roll Tide! is the slogan
Shouldn't that be "living former Presidents" ??
The "former living" ones are dead, yes?
The messiah looked very awkward and out of place, way out of his league there.
At least Clinton was there. So Obama wasn’t the only kid with a gruesomely dysfunctional family background
And a UFO sighting the day before in New Jersey. I wonder if the former presidents are letting president elect Obama know what the aliens expect of his governance.
No one wanted to change his Depends.
I’m just wondering what will the liberals say if he does nothing about changing the gaza situation, and letting them sort it out.
that will be more fun to hear.
Bert,
My favorite Cicero quotation:
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

Racism is alive and well in the U.S.,
95% + of the blacks voted for the only thing Hussein O has, half white/half Arab ancestors.
Nevermind the fact that he has no qualifications, no accomplishments and a political history full of racism, communism, socialism and Marxism. Oh yeah and being friends and working with anti-American domestic terrorists.
“All great civilizations are destroyed from within before they are destroyed from without.” Will Durant (should be accurate, but from memory)
Carter’s brother Billy was more than a tad dysfunctional.
Plus Clinton and Carter weren't abandoned by their mothers and didn't ignore them for yeras at a time and in the months and days while they died, and didn't wait 6 weeks to attend a “funeral” and fail to shed a tear for the women who raised them while dumping their ashes on the rocks beside the sea off a public highway
THAT is what I mean by gruesome dysfunction
just as society is sliding down the slippery slope, so is our choice in president.....all downhill.
