Citizen, it's good that you have chosen to confess your crimes here in the company of your comrades. Self-criticism is the first step to proper re-education.

Be sure to tune into ABC daily for your Two Minutes' Hate. In your ideological confusion you called that picture George W. Bush, but his name is Emmanuel Goldstein. And Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.

“”man-made catastrophes””

I am appalled by the sexism of the Obama administration when they call terrorism “man-made catastrophes.”

What kind of message is this sending to millions of young radical Islamic girls? Sorry aspiring female jihadists, but according the Obama only MEN can create catastrophes.

Feminists should demand that the new phrase should be "Catastrophes correlated with human activity." Sarcasm off/

Rush on how liberals changed naming of hurricanes:

“You know it used to be that hurricanes were named only after women because they were destructive and unpredictable. And that's the reason. The feminists grew upset about that, demanded that hurricanes be named after men, and so now, the civil rights leaders are demanding black names for hurricanes.”

Thanks. May have to start one with the way this Orwellian Obammunism is going.

It is becoming like a pharaoh or a non-Western dictatorship, isn't it? Forbidding people to question the leader, all kinds of idiotic policies, proclamations we are no longer a Christian nation, while singing praises for a non-Christian religion. Has anyone asked whether this is what we should be doing? Aren't these just fantasies and obsessions from Obama's own mind and strange Third World upbringing??? Which have NOTHING to do with reality?

The same elites who howled most loudly and hysterically about Bush's evangelical "What would Jesus do?" comment now revere Obama as a god and messiah. They can't see the irony of this?

Obama invokes Jesus more than Bush

"he attended Harvard Law School during the Critical Legal Studies revolution, whose slogan “law is politics,” taught that law, like all human constructs, is mutable, and can be tailored to changing agendas"

This postmodern side to Obama will be interesting to watch, particularly his desire to separate the U.S. from Christian culture. Apparently, he was essentially brainwashed at Harvard in relativism and multiculturalism through what is called "Critical Legal Studies" in liberal academic jargon. The deeper you dig, the worse it gets...
