The curtain has come down on what can best be described as a brief un-American moment in our history. That moment began in the fall of 2008, with the great financial panic, and gave rise to the Barack Obama phenomenon.
--snip--
There had been that magical momentthe campaign of 2008and the true believers want to return to it. But reality is merciless. The spell is broken.

profound quote- thanks for sharing. Hits the “affirmative action” issue head on, I think. It was a great gamble by the guilty white liberal left and the selfish short sighted underclass, to see if America could be governed by an affirmative action POTUS.
Barack Obama, the One, The Messiah, has become the last Black President
Excellent article.

LOL - rappers’ views on politics. Very profound, I’m sure.
Fortunately I didn’t even know the grammy’s were on.
Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society" accomplished its goals.
70% illegitimate births leading to total dependence on govt welfare programs.
What a sad chapter in American history.

Just like you and me.
Where did you hear they worshiped Jesus in that alleged church? I've seen nor heard no proof of that.
I agree! IIRC, a real journalist did some actual research and called Obama's church telling them he had just moved into the area and was looking for a church. He inquired as to their doctrine and then told them he was a muslim. They assured him he would find their church agreeable and told him MANY of their members were muslim.
Remember they also did a special ceremony to honor Farrakhan.
In his 2009 book, How the Mighty Fall, business guru Jim Collins outlined five stages of decline that many big companies go through. Mostly he wrote about companies that lose their edge gradually, even imperceptibly, until thousands of tiny termite holes bring down the house.
His first stage is "hubris born of success,"
Next in the evolution of decline comes "undisciplined pursuit of more."
Collins's third stage is "denial of risk and peril," Stage four is "grasping for salvation,"
Collins's fifth stage: "capitulation to irrelevance or death."
Toyota's "buzz" score--reflecting consumers' immediate perception of the brand--have dipped to historic lows. But positive impressions of Toyota still outweigh negative ones, which means customers are likely to return if the company solves its problems once and for all--and makes amends.
"Consumers are pretty forgiving of blue-chip brands," says Ted Marzilli of BrandIndex. "Prospects are still quite good for Toyota, provided the issue is resolved quickly, there is clear communication to consumers, and there are no more issues in the near future." And humility replaces hubris.
Consumers likely will forgive Toyota, but we shall see if voters will be forgiving in 2010 and 2012. If recent elections are any indication, and obama continues his narcissistic hubris, voters won't be forgiving, but angry and vengeful. It couldn't happen to a more deserving politician.
As soon as I heard about the meet and great I knew it was a mistake for the Republicans. Don’t even try to play nice. Dominate.
HAMMER HORROR RULES!!!!
The NLP techniques Obama uses can’t overcome the lack of a paycheck. ;)
Geeze...I’m sorry about the ex.
I’ve known some low Leos but was luckily never cursed by marrying one.
I did date a Leo....*once*.....;D
Also his voice. Apparently, it has held people spellbound since he was in college. There was some incident where merely his voice soothed down some difficult assembly; he said nothing new but using his voice made an appeal for calm or reason.
And I'm referring to the voice he uses for white folks, not his fake nigra voice which really grates on my nerves; sometime I expect the media will stop covering for him for this matter, also.
