In a chilling appraisal of President Obamas Republican opposition, First Lady Michelle Obama Thursday suggested a Republican victory in the 2012 presidential election would result in curbs on freedom of speech and religion.
Speaking at a fundraiser at a private residence in Tampa, Mrs. Obama noted the power of the president to appoint members of the Supreme Court.
She clearly indicated that a Republican would select justices who would attack basic First Amendment rights, saying, thats whats at stake in the election.
From the White House transcript:
Lets not forget about what it meant when my husband appointed those two brilliant Supreme Court justices (applause) and for the first time in history, our daughters and our sons watched three women take their seats on our nations highest court. (Applause.) But more importantly, lets not forget the impact those decisions will have on our lives for decades to come on our privacy and security, on whether we can speak freely, worship openly, and love whomever we choose. That is whats at stake here. (Applause.)

This is the same person who wants the government to dictate what we are and aren’t allowed to eat.
Just the opposite, IMO. These people live in "opposite-ville". Everyone has "rights" except some, fat is the new thin, socialism is the new freedom, and truth is nowhere to be found.
The Libtards always accuse the rest of the population of what the Libtards are actually planning or doing. Always!
Im trying to figure out what any of our candidates have said that would in any way indicate wanting to LESSEN our freedoms in the 1st amendment. I mean, McCain isn’t running, so we don’t have any pro-campaign-finance folks. Conservatives want freedom of religion back, we aren’t the ones trying to remove all religion from the public square.
"The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more. "
~Michelle Obama
Imelda Obama inserts her sizable hoof in her mouth one more time.
Did she mention that we want to starve kids and old people?
Come on - stick to the script!
They can’t pay attention to the truth because the American NetWork Media, the virtually all the hard print Media and the teaching professions ration the truth to them, like the old fashion Roman Catholic Index. Can you imagine what you would know if there were no radio talk shows and no Internet?
ABCBSNBCNN, NYTimes, WaPOSt , etc., are the true 1% who try control the 99% and are about 60% successful.
“Im trying to figure out what any of our candidates have said that would in any way indicate wanting to LESSEN our freedoms in the 1st amendment.”
It doesn’t matter what our candidates have said...
The ONLY thing that matters is what the MSM is saying they have said. The MEME is what is important, not the facts now.
She lies as much as her Marxist husband does.Ironic she says this she is is telling people what they should eat....
“for the first time in history, our daughters and our sons watched three women take their seats on our nations highest court”
People’ll grab any opportunity to claim a milestone, won’t they? Let’s say Herman Cain gets elected; can we expect Michelle to celebrate “the first time in history” two black men have been president? No, that ship will have sailed, and she and others like her will ho-hum it, when not pretending it foretells the End of Days.
Hey mooooooochele calm down and eat a couple dozen donuts.
“on our privacy and security, on whether we can speak freely, worship openly, and love whomever we choose. That is whats at stake here”
Back-alley abortions, resegregated lunch counters, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!
I think the Democrats are doing fine on that front on their own.
The Obamas do not share my worldview. To them freedom of speech is flag burning and porn, while freedom of religion is homosexual clergy and Muslims practicing sharia law in Detroit. This is the result of Orwellian rhetoric taught in universities around the globe. Freedom means regulation in their world where the only acceptable religion is stateism, likewise the words “congress shall make no laws respecting...” is not a prohibition on jurisdictional creep, but that nothing is to be counted as worthy of respect, except the authority of the state. They attack ideas of liberty using the rhetoric of liberty to twist the meaning and pervert to their own tyrannical designs.
Yes, let’s not forget Obama’s record. Never, never forget, and bring him down.
Rule 1: Accuse your enemy of what you yourself are guilty.
“’leftists always project on others what they are thinking or doing’ ‘Alinsky Tactics 101’”
I don’t think it’s a tactic. Maybe sometimes, but more often I think it’s the genuine psychological definition of projection.
