ANN ARBOR, Mich. — President Barack Obama took aim Saturday at the angry rhetoric of those who denigrate government as "inherently bad" and said their off-base line of attack ignores the fact that in a democracy, "government is us."

I think Zer0 needs to cut his own pay.
I thought Hillary screamed that “protest is patriotism” when George Bush was president. I guess that doesn’t apply when Socialists gain power. Then it’s a threat to the country that needs to be stomped on by government’s SWAT lackeys as we saw very graphically in Quincey, Illinois this week.
“government is us.”
NO.
It’s you Obama. It’s not me. I don’t need you to help me make my decisions.
I am better of without you. If I don’t agree, my creator says I don’t have to accommodate your opinion. The end result is not between me and you, it’s between me and my creator.
Mind your own business.
Of course Obama is upset. As Ann Coulter wrote, liberals are godless, and have replaced that void in their life with worship of government. So to Obama, speaking negatively about government is a sacrilege.
Like Jefferson, et al?
Obambi, as you have constantly reminded us, “Us” didn’t win the election. You did dickhead. And when you’re talking to your peeps, the 70% of the population that is White, isn’t addressed. So F U you jackass.
You swore to protect and preserve the U.S. Constitution, and on count after count, you have failed your oath of office.
Anti- Government? No.
Anti-BAD Government? Yes, absolutely.
VIDEO: Obama: We’ve “Seen The Dangers Of Too Little Government”
President Obama praised government during his commencement address at the Unniversity of Michigan in Ann Arbor. “Government is what ensures that mines adhere to safety standards and that oil spills are cleaned up by the companies that caused them,” he said. “We’ve also clearly seen the dangers of too little government, like when a lack accountability on Wall Street nearly leads to the collapse of our entire economy,” Obama added.
Right on! We’ve got to vote in American Constitutionalists before the Marxist thugs make resistance impossible. I’ve asked all my friends — Republicans, Democrats, or non-political — to watch the Quincy, Illinois, riot squad video over and over before the next elections. We are getting perilously close the point of no return. Remember, the bad guys control the media, the IRS, the military, the financial system, education, health care, and a lot more.
Please vote and persuade others with the facts while we can still save our great and good republic. Lastly, give money to good candidates. Most conservatives appear to be working people, and we don’t have much to spare. Please, give what you can to the cause and tell all your friends. Five or ten dollars from each of us will buy air time and billboards. Let’s Roll!!!
Couple points:
a) This is NOT (for the millionth time) a democracy; it is a republic, if we can keep it.
b) Government is to be of, by, and for the people. The Federal Government of the United States ceased at all three a long time ago. It is not of, by, and for international bankers, communists, and statists. It is no longer in my interests, and no longer obeying the Consitution, therefore I oppose it with all my being.
And just who does he think is US? Or is that whom? Can never remember.
President Bush did not hate this country like this loser does. If you think this dork is better than President Bush, then you do not live in the same universe as I do.
As usual, he sets up an extreme straw man to gloss over real objections.
Oppose his “health care reform”, means wanting to do nothing. Opposing the growth of Fedzilla means being completely against all government.
He can tell how the recession started as if he was the authority, but can’t understand what type of auto insurance he has on a car.
From Feb of this year:
OBAMA: ... You know, when I was — when I was young, just got out of college, I had to buy auto insurance. I had a beat-up old car. And I won’t name the name of the insurance company, but there was a company, let’s call it Acme Insurance in — in Illinois. And I was paying my premiums every month. After about six months I got rear-ended, and I called up Acme and said, “You know, I’d like to see if I can get my car repaired.” And they laughed at me over the phone.
Because really, this was set up not to actually provide insurance, what it was set up was to meet the legal requirements. But it really wasn’t serious insurance.
“government is us.”
Zer0, you and your Rat buddies are NOT me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone really think the government is us anymore?
Government is nothing like us. They have nothing in common with us. They do not share our values, they do not share our concerns, they do not share our pains, they do not see the same world we do.
Barak Obama: “The financial meltdown dramatically showed the dangers of too little government, he said, “when a lack of accountability on Wall Street nearly led to the collapse of our entire economy.”
George Melloan in the Wall Street Journal, April 24, 2010: “It is one of the great ironies of our times that the two strongest defenders of the Fannie-Freddie shell game, Chris Dodd and Barney Frank, are now in charge of reforming bank regulation.
That’s right, there can be no compromise. Hasn’t he realized that his policies are being rejected?
We are looked upon as adversaries. We, the people, are stumbling blocks to their goal of a Marxist-Socialist-Fascist type of government that rules over the people. We are considered OK by the government if we go about our lives and just leave the government alone to "do its job". Once we start "interfering", we are labeled "enemy".
This is the mindset we have to fight.
