Back when I was a high school sophomore one of the kids asked the teacher why we had to study history. She told him it was so we wouldn’t do the same stupid things again. That was in 1957. They don’t stress history the same way now and haven’t for years. People think they’re blazing new trails but they’re just stumbling over the same old cliffs. People have been trying socialism, discussing socialism and getting screwed by socialism for centuries, there is nothing new they can try with it, it always ends with big holes in the ground full of rotting bodies. When the novelty wears off and people start resisting the tyranny they’ve got to be eliminated.
He may go totally bonkers and turn the flying monkeys loose. You big city Freepers need to start planning. If things start boiling load the kids in the car and just drive! If something starts in Mayberry it won’t go far!
Good advice, he is obviously smoking the coke again, and is bound to unleash the dogs just for grins when he loses. You know, “punish our enemies”.
for the first 3 minutes he sounds pretty reasonable
Bill Clinton issued an executive order requiring that school text books be revised to reflect a more diverse history of the US. Knowing nothing about post modernist thought or social justice, most of us were rightly outraged.
The Duke Lacrosse case was my first introduction to post modernist thought. Since then, I’ve done a bit of reading and now understand relativism, revisionist history and social justice. But never did I see a clearer illustration of what social justice really means than when I heard Obama declare that voting was the best revenge.
My high school history teacher was Miss Mildred Funk. You didn’t mess around with Mildred LOL. She knew history from the minute Adam and Eve got the boot! There were a lot of old maid teachers then, sort of like secular nuns I suppose. You learned or you suffered!
It is pretty much the same message that this administration has been giving for four years. Leftists (progressives, statists) do not live in the same reality that we do. When Clinton had to reign in spending and was forced to insitute welfare reform by a Republican congress, he claimed all the good results were his! No matter what happens, to the leftists, anything bad is a result of capitalism and anything good is a result of their efforts.
The article says that not even Obama’s supporters believe that he cut the deficit.
Unfortunately, I’ve talked to a few of them, and yes, they do believe that he cut the deficit. The 16 trillion debt is, according to them, because the cost for Bush’s wars were delayed and put into the budget from 2009-2012.
I honestly believe that Axelrod was the front man for the original Bagdad Bob...
If he had conducted himself more reasonably and appeared to make more sense throughout the campaign, he would probably have had the upper hand going into tomorrow. As it is, because of the incredible idiocy of too much of the electorate, he still is close enough to possibly pose a threat to Romney, what with the cheating and possible post-election legal maneuvers.
All this from a man who is, in all likelihood, trying to pull off a repeat of the greatest hoax in American history: getting elected to the highest office in the land without being a natural born citizen, and perhaps not even being a citizen at all!
cocainomania
Users who have pleasurable experiences report varying degrees of euphoria; increased energy, excitement, and sociability; less hunger and fatigue; a marked feeling of increased physical and mental strength; and decreased sensation of pain. Some will feel a great sense of power and competence that may be associated with the delusion or false sense of grandeur, known as cocainomania.

Obummer will have Joe Biden call Paul Ryan to do it for him
"They're coming to take Bammy away, ha-haaa!!
They're coming to take Bammy away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa
To the funny farm. Where life is beautiful all the time and he'll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're coming to take him away, ha-haaa!!!!!
I started wondering this after the first debate. I've never agreed with him, but until the last several months, he at least looked healthy.
In the first debate and subsequent ones, I kept thinking there's something odd about his complexion and even in his expressions.
My mom says you can tell a lot about what's going on inside someone's body by their face. And, something's just not right.
The idea seems to be to cast the illusion of reducing the most salient criticism of their approach, through mere posturing and rhetorical technique, to what is at most an undecidable question.
imo, the only way Obama can win is by cheating.
I read on Twitter that there was a report of Romney votes turning into Obama votes, but they got caught (THIS time).
