I do not know.........

Fair enough yet we have a President that the left claims is brilliant basically saying it does.
Isn`t that troubling?

Carl,
I do not have the answers to many things.  Obama, I feel, is a smart man.  Some of the things he is doing troubles me.  And no, I do not feel this is the thread to voice them nor ask and answer questions pertaining to them.  Not trying to hide, just that there are other places on this forum where that discussion is better suited.

What possible evidence could you have to even come to that conclusion?

Feelings are subjective.  They do not have to be backed up by facts.  When you feel sad, happy, angry, loved, do you have to have them backed up with facts??  I mentioned it was a feeling I had.  One can be smart or intelligent over all and still make mistakes in certain areas.

Thor,
Thank you for the information.  I did not have this before.

As for cramming my post down your throat, I did not post that here, someone else went and grabbed it and brought it here. 

 

You are correct. I quoted some of your DU blog because the talking points in it were so repugnant to me. I utterly fail to understand how some of you people can ignore the presence of God -- except, perhaps, that you've likely not been around long enough to realize that life is a very tenuous, precious thing that can be snuffed out in an instant.

Secondly, the Kum Bah Yah that you and your kind express toward gays is also offensive to me. While I don't believe in gay-bashing, neither do I believe in creating entire subsets of laws and policies just to accommodate a lifestyle, particularly one that I believe is chosen for most of those who practice it.

I make no bones about saying I loathe the man, but you have to give the devil his due. The evidence is in all the legislation he has passed thus far. It takes a bit of cunning, prowess, and intellligence to do what he has done already. Not to mention trickery, and underhandedness.

Some of his tactics on the to get the majority of the American people to vote him into the highest office were fairly intelligent. I refuse to believe the majority of our people are stupid, so what other conclusion can you come to?

The fact that he is intelligent is more fuel to my intense Obama hatred. Because he is extremely dangerous with the intelligence he posesses.

Agreed in all but one point - I don't hate the man. That's a very powerful emotion that doesn't work for me. But I'll certainly agree that he's cunning, underhanded, selfish as hell, and intent to follow the Socialist playbook as written by Alinsky et. al.

He cannot be trusted and neither can his handlers. All politicians are automatically suspect, but in his case, all systems are on Red Alert and have been since he was sworn into office.

I think "hate" is the perfect emotion for Barry. How would you feel about a person who wanted to destroy your life from the foundation up, and then control it in every conceivable way? That's exactly what Barry wants to do. Only, not just to one person, and one system of living. To capitalism, and every person in this country.

I'm sticking with "hate."

I honestly do not think AK47s are scary looking.  There are some very beautiful guns made.  I just do not see the need for everyone to own one.

The First Amendment, Freedom of Speech, allows for people to voice their opinions without fear of reprisal.  The courts have determined that some speech should not be allowed.  The classic being, shouting fire in a crowded area, to protect people from unnecessary fear.  Should we allow some speech and not others.  I would say the same holds true for the Second Amendment.     

You have just encouraged me to buy an AK47.

That makes no sense at all.

I have no idea where Wiki came up with this number, but they assign Stalin an IQ of 140.

IF they have no evidence to back up that claim, it's null and void, IMO.

Your first mistake is that you've apparently confused the terms, Republican" and "Conservative". Rethink your stance and you may enjoy some decent debate or conversation.
In fairness, I think it accurate to say terms like "conservative" and "liberal" have been misapplied over the decades to the point that they are fairly non-descriptive.

Yeah, considering that conservatives used to be called liberals, in the classic sense of the word liberal. Today's liberals have ruined the term so you all can keep it.

Yeah, now it's the word phrase "I'm a progressive" that terrifies me. That word is automatic grounds for suspicion in all fields.

It's supposed to be a little less offensive than the word "liberal".

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Every time I see them refer to themselves as "progressive"....I think of the car insurance commercials....and the woman who does them....particularly the one with her and the calculator that's she's typed in the numbers to say "hEllo"...reminds me of my kids when they were young.... :uhsure:
