Barack Obama, our next President

[child of god]

Obama supports
The killing of children
Deviant sex
Slavery
Theft
And all that is moral.
Obama is antichrist

"standing athwart history yelling stop."
That's brilliant.
Its discomforting because I'm as guilty of this as Carol et. al. are guilty of the above:
"The third theory investigated in this study is what Kahan calls the expressive rationality thesis. In this case, beliefs about issues like the riskiness of climate change or nuclear power constitute part of what it means for people to belong to specific groups. Shared beliefs form part of their identities. People assess new information so that their conclusions signal their trustworthiness and loyalty to social groups with which they identify and to which they wish to be connected. The upshot is that people go along in order to get along with members of the social groups that they believe will benefit them."
I'm guilty of finding a libertarian rationale against just about anything the right holds dear.
Go ahead, try me ;-)

Where did this screed originate? Something Leo penned in her spare time. Between indoctrinating her young charges with the one-for-all and all for one philosophy?

The problem is you say 1 has nothing to do with the other which it shouldn't, but you right wingers tend to call Obama muslim. & if he was then what? Freedom of religion yet ya'll panic in the wake of something you don't understand. I could care less if he was muslim. He's proven hew is here to do the will of the people. & don't sit here & act like you & your brethren don't try to link President Obama & the end time prophecies. Ya'll dont call him the antichrist & everything. Boy Messiah, what more proof do I need? & again show me some proof & not right wing journalism that proves that obamacare is bad for the middle & lower classes!

You haven't seen me label him anything...because voting for a POTUS is NOT voting for a preacher (unlike SOME of the freakish dolts that cannot fathom that here in the US, people CAN and DO seperate their religious affiliations from their work related ones)

He's just another Hienz 57 stater, who apparently does not see the rational or logic in showing educational records for SOME reason or another (ESPECIALLY if anyone started college at 16) in my book.

Now, when want to switch gears from the LAMEbrainless modes of just mere phat crayon kindergarten level personal assaults on people, to discussing on higher thinking levels, ISSUES, such as the economy, FOREIGN POLICY and the likes, do feel free to chime in.

I know, genuineness, rather than political suck and pander, is a RARE thing now a days.

Trust me Homer, I (and ones like myself) pay the price for being truly DECENT, Moral and ethical every day.

Ha!

Redemption (from the above article):

"Kahan notes in passing that social psychological research has found that political independents and libertarians score better on the cognitive reflection than do liberals or conservatives "

Look Carol,
The ACA is paid for through a series of taxes & savings.
Some tax payers will pay some of these taxes & some will not be affected. For example, a tax was added to investment income over a certain threshold.
The point I am making is that this bill does not add to the debt.
Part D was passed by Republicans with about 80% of it adding to the deficit.
Tax payers pay for everything the government does. So running in circles screaming how the ACA is costing taxpayers money is extremely stupid. The added costs due to the ACA are funded.

Duh A Vey-

STUPId are the ones that are so damn ignorant, tey have no CLUE, that SOMe people CONTRIBUTE EXTRA each month-- to programs like the above mentioned--and that any benfits incurred from doing such are NOT "FWEE"--they are PAID for via monthly CONTRIBUTION.

THAT is STUPID (and IGNORANT).

and Carol is NOT one of those--living in UNREALITY.

It's MORE robbing via TAXATION the already UNISURED/beleagured lower wage working classes-and it's WRONG-WRONG WRONG WRONG--and they should be ASHAMED of themselves!!!!
CAPPING the flipping givverment programs-ESPECIALLY the WELFARE for fweeriding slackerTICS, would probably SAVE more in REDUCING costs than any amount of taxation in this rotten , OVER burden from freeriding ABUSES economy.
SHAME on them!!

If all you do is regurgitate stupid Fox/GOP talking points don't bother.

Personally, I've never witnessed such direct breaches of the Constitution, as seen in some of antics of the past four years.

The fumes are getting to you. Our history is rife with such violations starting with George Washington's second term and the Whiskey Rebellion. Its just been downhill since through the Civil War and "reconstruction", Cleveland, Wilson, and Nixon setting the military against citizens on home turf all the way up to Obama ordering the assassination of US citizens NOT on home turf without so much as a nod to Due Process.

Y'all need to learn some genyouwine history and such.

We are on an end-of-line track with an engineer yelling 'Pour on the coal!''Pour on the coal!' Going to be one hell of a wreck! Too bad it's going to hurt a lot of people. But socialism always does. The 'It won't happen this time because we are smarter than those guys' crowd always think it will work because they are doing it. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Yeah--that kind of stuff sure isn't right!!! Nothing right about it all.

200 major corporations are prepaying 1st quarter dividends before January 1. Major layoffs announcements expected by the end of the year.

You think the last three springs were bad wait till next year. 9.5% plus unemployment (really around 15%). More layoffs. Downward spiral. Point of no return.

To pass a bill & pay for just 20% of it does not make the bill funded unless you are in right whiner la la land.
