BTW, our united States was created to allow the States to have power over everything except the things stated in the Constitution of the united States. Federal politicians corrupted that to the United States and have removed nearly all the powers from the States.
Flashcards, written on the back of shovels in charcoal.
Obama is an angry little boy with the brains of a child.
OholyO is WAY below Buchanan. Buchanan had no teleprompter. He actually had to write his own speeches.
Obama, not so much.
Yeah if it wasn’t for his handlers he’d be hustling cheap watches on the chitown streets.
“Gay” meant something else in Buchanan’s day...
“I’ll bet 0bama and James Buchanan have something special in common.”
You hit the nail on the head, took how many posts before anyone else figured it out.
They are fudgepackers.
What he has done does not seem "smart" to you because you do not share his political philosophy. However, what he has done is indeed smart, given the presupposed agenda he came to office with. One simple example is Obamacare. It doesn't seem smart to you. But if one wants to the government to gain control over the private lives of individuals, it is a very smart way to go about it.
Calling him smart doesn't mean I agree with him. Not at all. I strongly oppose everything he has done and intends to do. But I won't make the mistake of thinking he is dumb.
I’ll bet people in all “57” States agree with that!!
He tried to get his story out before the election. He asked Fox News to interview him and he was ignored.
Dr. John Drew attended Occidental College at the same time as Barack Hussein Obama.
He has now given several interviews of what occurred at that time and what Barack Obama told him to his face in their several meetings that they had together.
The story is quite amazing.
Clearly, we have been duped.
Dr. John C. Drew, now a grant writing consultant in Laguna Niguel, Calif., tells Newsmax he met Obama in 1980 when Obama was a sophomore at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Drew had just graduated from Occidental and was attending graduate school at Cornell University.
During Christmas break, Drew says he was at Grauman-Boss’ home in Palo Alto when Obama came over with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, his roommate from Pakistan.
“Barack [Obama] and Hasan showed up at the house in a BMW, and then we went to a restaurant together,” Drew says. “We had a nice meal, and then we came back to the house and smoked cigarettes and drank and argued politics.”
For the next several hours, they discussed Marxism.
“He [Obama] was arguing a straightforward Marxist-Leninist class-struggle point of view, which anticipated that there would be a revolution of the working class, led by revolutionaries, who would overthrow the capitalist system and institute a new socialist government that would redistribute the wealth,” says Drew, who says he himself was then a Marxist.
“The idea was basically that wealthy people were exploiting others,” Drew says. “That this was the secret of their wealth, that they weren’t paying others enough for their work, and they were using and taking advantage of other people. He was convinced that a revolution would take place, and it would be a good thing.”
Drew concluded that Obama thought of himself as “part of an intelligent, radical vanguard that was leading the way towards this revolution and towards this new society.” ..."
Referring to Obama’s quote from “Dreams of My Father” that he associated with Marxist professors, Drew says, “What he’s not saying is that he was in 100 percent total agreement with those Marxist professors.
When you understand that, Obama’s later associations and policies make more sense, including why he was taken in by Rev. Wright’s ideology.”
I was asked before to turn all of this into a Vanity post, but I've never done one before, and I am unsure of how to do it.
Perhaps someone on Free Republic could do it for me?
0bama is our first foreign pres__ent.
Only flies love him.
Let’s say that John Drew’s story is true ( and it has all the signs of a genuine story ), Obama can always use the politician’s excuse -— “I was young and idealistic then. People’s views change over the years and my political views have evolved since I gained more experience in life.”
Not that I would believe him, but hey, such an excuse would be totally accepted by guys like Chris Matthews (whose leg would tingle one more time ).
