Note the link tag:

“dick cheney full of crap”

I wish I could shake meeks hand.....and give him an electricians grip....

GRRRR

man....Today was designed to piss me off I guess...

From moving KSM to our courts to stopping coal mining for a bug...

It can no longer be denied that Obama want to fundmentaly remake america is his own image....and he’s perfectly will to destroy america as we know it to bring it about...

“Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution. To bring on this reformation requires that the organizer work inside the system, among not only the middle class but the 40 per cent of American families – more than seventy million people – whose income range from $5,000 to $10,000 a year [in 1971]. They cannot be dismissed by labeling them blue collar or hard hat. They will not continue to be relatively passive and slightly challenging. If we fail to communicate with them, if we don’t encourage them to form alliances with us, they will move to the right. Maybe they will anyway, but let’s not let it happen by default.” Saul Alinski- rules for radicals

It’s all about him. It always is and always will be as long as he retains the power to control the scene.

"Well, James," he said, looking me in the eye, "just because you're a journalist doesn't mean you can't honor your friends here."

“Meek also has broken a series of stories about abuses of inmates at the U.S. terrorist prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.”

The troops love President Bush, and the lying media never wrote heartwarming stories like this one to bolster his standing with the troops. If anything, they either ignored it or tried to undermine him, throwing every cynical excuse they could muster to try to deny the reciprocation of admiration and respect between him and the troops.

“I’m sure the cynics will assume this wasjust anotherObama photoop.”

If not, then why is he writing about it? He could have had his moment with Obama and not written a story about it...

The secret service wouldn't let this just happen. They clear the area first, so he had to be a plant.

Exactly.

“...Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery...a rare presidential walk
among what Lincoln called America’s “honored dead”...”

Lincoln never saw Arlington Cemetery.

I'm sure the cynics those who do not believe Obama is a diety will (rightly)assume this was just another Obama photoop. But that would only be half the story. Not only was it another contrived Obama photoop, but it was also the basis for yet another fake puff piece.

A few edits to make it fake but accurate.

If they’d been standing in my boots looking him in the eye, they would have surely choked on their bile.

If I'd have been standing in my boots looking 0bama in the eye I'd have been choking on something, all right. And it wouldn't be on my bile!!!
