Obama Sounds Like President Without a Country
Newsmax ^ | 6/8/09 | Pat Boone

“We’re no longer a Christian nation.” — Barack Obama, June 2007

“America has been arrogant.” — President Barack Obama

“After 9/11, America didn’t always live up to her ideals” — President Barack Obama

“You might say that America is a Muslim nation.” — President Barack Obama, Egypt 2009

Thinking about these and other statements from the man who wears the title of president, I keep wondering what country he believes he’s president of?

In one of my very favorite stories, Edward Everett Hale’s “The Man without a Country,” young Army lieutenant Philip Nolan stands condemned for treason during the Revolutionary War, having come under the influence of Aaron Burr. When the judge asks whether he wants to say anything before sentencing, Nolan exclaims defiantly, “Damn the United States! I wish I might never hear of the United States again!”

In Obama’s mind he is above any country. Although he does lean to the Middle East; but if you are Muslim; it doesn’t surprise me.

This American would be proud to kick that ass right out of this country.

A more stupid, naive, or clueless person does not exist - on this planet, at least.

The Obamaloon - when you absolutely, positively, do not need measurable intelligence in your Commander In Chief.

Man without a country.

Man without a religion.

Man with ethics of a Chicago thug.

Well, I suppose this is appropriate considering we are a country without a President. We may have a Czar or a Führer, but certainly not a President in any Constitutional sense.

As far as I am concerned, he’s a president without the backing of a country.

Who might say that?! Certainly not her people.

Ignorant arrogance may be his most worrisome trait...

That is precisely what he sounds like. . .like he has never entertained a patriotic thought in his entire life. This man would not know 'altruism' if it hit him upside the head. The closest kindred resonance; you hear in his voice is when he speaks to and 'of' the 'Muslim World'. . .

Meantime; until his truth can be told; Obama is homeless.

At least get the story right! The Man without a country and its anti-hero took place in the aftermath of the 1800 election. Aaron Burr became VP thanks to Hamilton’s hatred for Burr. That hatred cost hamiton his life and pushed Burr to plot treason against the US. Nolan and others were swept up in the whirlwind and Nolan got just we he asked for.

Which is probly where the saying came from: “Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it”.

Pat Boone: "You studied law at Harvard, didn’t you, sir? You taught constitutional law in Chicago? Did you never read the statement of John Jay, the first chief justice of the Supreme Court and an author of the landmark Federalist Papers, “Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers — and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation — to select and prefer Christians for their rulers”?

In your studies, you surely must have read the decision of the Supreme Court in 1892: “Our lives and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise; and in this sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.”

Did your professors have you skip over all the high court decisions right up till the mid-1900s that echoed and reinforced these views and intentions? Did you pick up the history of American jurisprudence only in 1947, when for the first time a phrase coined by Thomas Jefferson about a “wall of separation between church and state” was used to deny some specific religious expression — contrary to Jefferson’s intent with that statement? "

Gotta love Pat Boone!

What scares me is how many secrets has he been told by the military? How much do you need to tell the President? Need to know or.....”Here you go Commander, all of the nations’ secrets reside in this book”
