Title: Obama: “America is no longer what it once was”

Obama: “America is no longer what it once was” (http://hotair.com/archives/2008/08/07/obama-america-is-no-longer-what-it-once-was/)
Quote
When presidential candidates answer questions from children about why they want the job, most will give an answer that uplifts the child and the candidate.  Not Barack Obama.  At a campaign stop in Elkhart, Indiana, a seven-year-old girl asked the Democrat why he wants to be President — and he told her that America has gone downhill.

He is talking about the Country (Not the current future or past Administration)

What did it used to be that he wants ?

moral ?   I'm OK with that but his party is the cause, not the cure.
segregated ?   I don't think much of anybody is OK with that.
less socialist (on the curve to 'not at all socialist' way back when) ?
"dry" ?
a minor player on the world stage ?

Me are confused.

Well, as one of them, I can say you are quite wrong there.  Mayber you should further qualify that by adding "And senile."

He posted on CU for a while, was eventually banned for being insane.  He is better...really.  Occasionally, he posts in something close to understandable English.

It hasn't happened here yet.

But we do have more tolerance than RonPaul Central, so we can certainly allow him to post his insanity -- it is something for us to laugh at if nothing else.

Obama is right about our country changing...the libs got control of the NEA, so the public school system is failing.  Libs created social workers, enacted laws to "protect" children and wrote child-raising books, so now many kids are undisciplined brats.  Libs were able to enact laws that make our animals and pets into "companions," and responsible animal owners and breeders have been struggling to remain in business ever since.  Libs filed lawsuits against decency laws, and won enough times that sex and foul language is common on all public media now, and they now hold parades on Main Street in celebration of their degeneracy.   Libs have used the court system to attack the free speech rights of any with whom they disagree, and to force their wishes upon the majority of the country.  Somehow, I don't think Obama is going to make any of this better.   ::)

This is a great reply to the Oooooobama.  :evillaugh:

Quote
Let me be the bridge to an America than only the unknowing call myth. Let me be the bridge to a time of tranquility, faith and confidence in action.

And to those who say it was never so, that America's not been better, I say you're wrong. And I know because I was there. And I have seen it. And I remember.

And our nation, though wounded and scathed, has outlasted revolutions, civil war, world war, racial oppression and economic catastrophe. We have fought and prevailed on almost every continent. And in almost every sea.

We have even lost. But we have lasted, and we have always come through.

And what enabled us to accomplish this has little to do with the values of the present. After decades of assault upon what made America great, upon supposedly obsolete values, what have we reaped? What have we created? What do we have?

What we have in the opinions of millions of Americans is crime and drugs, illegitimacy, abortion, the abdication of duty, and the abandonment of children.

And after the virtual devastation of the American family, the rock upon which this country was founded, we are told that it takes a village, that is collective, and thus the state, to raise a child.

The state is now more involved than it ever has been in the raising of children. And children are now more neglected, more abused and more mistreated than they have been in our time.

This is not a coincidence. This is not a coincidence. And with all due respect, I am here to tell you it does not take a village to raise a child. It takes a family to raise a child.

If I could by magic restore to every child who lacks a father or a mother that father or that mother, I would. And though I cannot, I would never turn my back on them. And I shall as President vote measures that keep families whole.

And I'm here to tell you that permissive and destructive behavior must be opposed. That honor and liberty must be restored and that individual accountability must replace collective excuse.

And I'm here to say I am here to say to America, do not abandon the great traditions that stretch to the dawn of our history. Do not topple the pillars of those beliefs -- God, family, honor, duty, country -- that have brought us through time, and time, and time, and time again.

And to those who believe that I am too combative, I say if I am combative, it is for love of country. It is to uphold a standard that I was I was born and bread to defend. And to those who believe that I live and breathe compromise, I say that in politics honorable compromise is no sin. It is what protects us from absolutism and intolerance.

But one must never compromise in regard to God and family and honor and duty and country. And I'm here to set a marker, that all may know that it is possible to rise in politics, with these things firmly in mind, not compromised and never abandoned, never abandoned.

For the old values endure and though they may sleep and though they may falter, they endure. I know this is true. And to anyone who believes that restraint honor and trust in the people cannot be returned to government, I say follow me, follow me.

Only right conduct, only right conduct distinguishes a great nation from one that cannot rise above itself. It has never been otherwise.
