Obama's words!


That quote should be about Obama. Even HE

Famous Obama quote

"I probed myself and I'm clean".

Ooooh, yeah everything should just stop now. No need to investigate any further he's "probed" himself.

Or better yet maybe he had Larry Sinclair probe him. HA HA HA

GET OVER IT ALREADY. Bush was a total loser. You refuse to give Obama a chance.

I pity you.
That's not the whole quote.

Your Quote from Joe

"The media's worried about whether I've paid my taxes, they're worried about any number of silly things that have nothing to do with America," Wurzelbacher told the former Republican presidential hopeful on his show, "Huckabee."

And your quote:"This is what is so funny.  In Joe's eyes "taxes" are silly things."

If you notice, he did not say taxes were silly things. He said they're worried about any number of silly things. He didn't specifically say taxes are silly things.


This whole election is out of hand. The media is whipping everyone into a frenzy over a bunch of stupid crap that has no place in the election.  I have never seen such garbage spewing from everyone, every newspaper, and you-name-it.


People have to be level-headed and think and decide for themselves and stop the name-calling just because others don't agree!!!!!


I would also like to add this quote.

I posted this below but will post it again.


"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have ... The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases." -- Thomas Jefferson


there was a lot more to that quote
"my muslim faith" If you listen to it in context, he is not saying he is a muslim, he is refering to people talking about his muslim faith, which he doesn't have.
quote
"Our democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who



are willing to work and give to those who would not."



 

Thomas Jefferson

quote

"Love your neighbor as yourself and your country more than yourself."


—Thomas Jefferson, letter to Thomas Jefferson Smith, February 21, 1825


If you are going to quote me............ sm
please at least do it in context.  "Obama is flying on the premise that he is innocent until proven guilty and the hope that his puppeteers have enough money to keep his guilt from being discovered, which they very well may have."

Our Constitution does provide for presumed innocence until gult is actually proven.  That much I agree with.  HOWEVER, what I was saying here in the context of my message is that Obama is betting that he has enough financial backing that will grease the palms of those who are in charge of the decision-making process, as they have done in the past to get him to this level, that he will not be found guilty.  Money runs politics, Marmann, and I think you would agree with me on that.  You don't see very many poor people in national politics. 

Once this issue is laid to rest by the SC, then I will let it go.  I may not like their decision, but I will let it go because, as the highest court in the land, their word is law and we must abide by it.  It would not be the first time that I would disagree with their judgment and probably not the last, but as an American I have, at least for the time being, the right to disagree with them. 

As to what other issues may arise that I would voice disagreement with and "pound him into the ground" on, that remains to be seen.  I am watching several issues right now very closely, and if his decision on said issues disagrees with mine, then you can bet I will be on here screaming.  If he proves me wrong about him and brings this country back from the brink of total destruction, then I will cook up a pot of crow for me and anyone else who wants to join me.  If we don't have enough crow to go around, I have quite a few old hats around here that could supplement the meal. 
Quote of the Day.....

The late Dr. Adrian Rogers (1931-2005) offered the following observation several years ago and it bears poignant significance today:


"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the rich out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply the wealth by dividing it. "


Quote from this site. sm

“heatherb” a Soldier from OK, submitted 9-6-04:


“You cannot tell me that we are not doing the right thing when you watch little kids run, literally run from their one room mud hut a mile away from the road come running as your convoy is passing just to wave, not to beg for food or water, just to wave. Or to be a woman and invited to sit amoung the Iraqi men and share their Chai with them and listen as they share their stories of the days when their country was oppressed. To have shared such time with the people of tha t country and to have learned about their culture and that they are such a powerful proud people. And to know that I was a part of liberating that, makes me proud to have gone over there to give those kids that run up to us all those times the chance to never have tell the stories that the men sharing tea told, but listen to them as I did. We are doing the right thing regardless of the disillusion of our politicians. Be proud of what you've done. I am."


God Bless them.


quote from 1946

As true today as it was when spoken in 1946.


Why of course the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship ... voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.


Hermann Goering April 18, 1946 - Nuremberg trial Taken from "Nuremberg Diary" by G.M. Gilbert

Read quote

Rush Limbaugh quoting excerpt from article by Rick Moran:


But even a victory by 'The Laughing Goat' ( La Cabra que Ríe) couldn’t possibly gladden the hearts and warm the cockles of liberals like the prospect of celebrating…what? Well, there’s that drop in the President’s poll numbers. And then there’s…let’s see. Oh! Did I mention the drop in the President’s poll numbers? Yes, these are heady days for our left wing friends. The fact that their celebrations are taking place as a direct result of the distress, suffering, anguish and death of tens of thousands of their fellow citizens seems to not be of much concern to our morally superior betters. In fact, it has emboldened them to advance every crack pot theory on race and class that has poisoned American politics for going on forty years. One could say the left is dancing on the graves of black people, celebrating the exploitation of a political opening brought about by the incompetence of relief efforts in the largely black neighborhoods of New Orleans. Except for one thing: most of those graves are empty at the moment because the future les habitants haven’t even been plucked from the floodwaters yet.


quote above from Voltaire

I never heard that quote before. sm
Please provide a link.  I would like to read the entire article. 
Apparently you did not look far enough for the quote...
This is from the Washington Post, transcript of the conversation:

Vice President Cheney: Dec. 9, 2001 -- Meet the Press

RUSSERT: Let me turn to Iraq. When you were last on this program, September 16, five days after the attack on our country, I asked you whether there was any evidence that Iraq was involved in the attack and you said no. Since that time, a couple articles have appeared which I want to get you to react to. The first: "The Czech interior minister said today that an Iraqi intelligence officer met with Mohammed Atta, one of the ringleaders of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the United States, just five months before the synchronized hijackings and mass killings were carried out."

And this from James Woolsey, former CIA director: "We know that at Salman Pak, on the southern edge of Baghdad, five different eyewitnesses--three Iraqi defectors and two American U.N. Inspectors--have said--and now there are aerial photographs to show it--a Boeing 707 that was used for training of hijackers, including non-Iraqi hijackers trained very secretly to take over airplanes with knives." And we have photographs. As you can see that little white speck--and there it is, the plane on the ground in Iraq used to train non-Iraqi hijackers. Do you still believe there's no evidence that Iraq was involved in September 11?

There ya go. Meet the Press only has transcripts on line back to 2003. I checked. If you look hard enough, there are other publications who published the actual transcript. Russert said it.

As to the fuselage in the desert: Charles Deulfer, former Deputy Head, U.N. Special Commission for Iraq, told NPR, "There were lots of places in Iraq where training of non-Iraqis, or things, which by our lexicon would be considered terrorism, was taking place. That's why Iraq is on the terrorist list. Having a large aircraft, a 707, in a peninsula, completely visible from the air or from satellite, with no airline runways nearby, that's not there by accident."

As to the smartalecky crack who was in the "meeting"...I posted that I heard him say it during the 9-11 commission meeting hearings and I DID. They were televised and there were certainly more than 3 people present. They asked him about the "slam dunk" comment regarding the intelligence and WMD, and he replied: "I thought it WAS a slam dunk. We ALL did." I don't know what meeting you are talking about with only three present. I am talking about what he testified to before the 9-11 commission in their hearings, which I did hear. And, frankly, I think out of the man's own mouth is a pretty reliable source.

Yes, I agree it is hard to get the real story, especially since the story tellers change their stories like other people change their underwear. Tim Russert is just one of them. Richard Armitage is another. So which time do we believe them? Which time is really the truth? No way to know.

I said the source of the reporting does not matter if the information can be substantiated. I don't discount everything I hear on a liberal station if I can substantiate it. A very simple example: If Fox News printed the sun was shining, and you looked out and the sun was shining...you could pretty well believe it, even if Fox is the one who printed it. That was my point...if it is a fact, who prints it does not matter. Who declines to print or report it though...that also indicates something.

Have a good evening, Taiga!
Your statement, and I quote....(sm)
"A half a Xanax works just as well as a full one."
NOT TRUE. A half a Xanax will take the edge off. An entire Xanax will afford you the opportunity to take a 2-hour nap.

To quote the poster above....
I have a right to be here and you have no right to tell me where I ought to be.

I understand that you have a hardened heart and nothing I can say or do will change that. Anyone who thinks abortion is a valid method of birth control and is okay with that has a hardened heart. But, your right as an American to hold any opinion you want to hold.

But it is my right as an American, and my moral right as a human being to state my opinion. And my opinion is that a developing child has as much right to life as YOU do. And I will continue the struggle. If that offends you...I'm sorry.
mcCain quote - but do we
From his book “Worth the Fighting For.”

“Often my haste is a mistake, but I live with the consequences without complaint.”


 


 


 


that was a direct quote from

Ronald Reagan.  How SHAMEFUL that you make fun of a dead man and one with Alzheimer's to boot.  I am appalled at your lack of manners.


 


What a wonderful quote!
Thank you so much for sharing this timeless quote with us today, zoesnana. It seems so fitting in light of our current economic status. President Jefferson was a very wise man!
Biden 's quote
Or, to quote JOE BIDEN:
"I think he CAN be ready, but right now I don't believe he is. The presidency is not something that lends itself to on-the-job training."

I do not agree with Biden's statement. It is not clear to me what motivated Biden to say this after Obama chose him as running mate.
And Biden said this some time ago.



Excellent quote. nm

Shakespeare quote
"I think they protest too much."  I see no posts saying what up pubs think McCain/Palin has to offer.  It's all about trashing the "that one."   Have y'all ever considered that you may be doing more to turn voters away from your candidate than toward him?  Not one shred of your "evidence" against "that one" has come to fruition.
Awesome quote!

Great quote
"There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble opinion, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution."
-- John Adams
Referring to your quote above, would
sentiments if a conservative was being sworn into office on 1/20/09? Is this how you felt on 11/3/08?

**From where I stand (the left...ok, far left),....I would say that most Americans realize the power that comes with being united and would not be willing to give that up, regardless of which side of the aisle you're on.**

I believe this is a direct quote from big O
'The buck stops here.'
The scripture you quote................
Please take the time to give the context of the verse, if you know it....

It has to do with AFTER Armageddon. Those who are not obedient to what Jesus says will be destroyed and the righteous will have the time to live on, on Earth.

I'll help you out some more because I really do want you to understand this verse; I am not being glib about this...

(Psalm 37:9) For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.
(Psalm 37:11) But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
(Psalm 37:29) The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.
(Psalm 37:34) Hope in Jehovah and keep his way, And he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked ones are cut off, you will see [it].


Now, I could go on and on, but nowhere in the Bible does it tell me to go out and kill EVERYONE who does not believe in God; it tells me to love them as I would love myself. And it certainly does not tell me to go out and kill Muslims just because they are Muslim, as the Islamic teaching does of killing Christians and Jews, JUST because they are Christians and Jews.




I am amazed that you are saying, I quote
'Everyone said ''give the guy a chance'' and this is what he's doing with it. I am NOT impressed so far...'

On WHAT grounds did people say this?

Did people also say 'Give McCain a chance' or didn't they?

I really wonder that O is supposed to justify EVERY, EVERY MOVE AND STEP he makes.

And I stand by that quote.
If we sin and don't repent, we will die. End of story. Sin is the wrong choice. Some of the choices we have in our daily life are wrong. Some of us just don't realize it. I'm not cold. I've lost loved ones too. I think we all have. Some people love to put words in other's mouths or they just have a hard time comprehending the message. I see you are one of those. You have no idea what I've experienced.

Your words-- "Yes we are all going to die but that doesn't make it okay for someone else to move the date up because they don't like what we do." Or possibly don't like who we are-- as in fetuses.
He did do a quote from the Quran....(sm)

and the Talmud and the Bible.  He said:  "The Holy Quran tells us, 'Mankind, we have created you male and a female. And we have made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another,'" Obama said in the Cairo address. "The Talmud tells us, 'The whole of the Torah is for the purpose of promoting peace.' The Holy Bible tells us, 'Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.'"


My opinion is that instead of showing the differences in religion, he's showing how peace is taught in all three religions.  So, in other words, there is more to gain from peace (for all these religions) than from fighting.  One of the main points that Obama ALWAYS covers when it comes to foreign relations is that we should focus on common ground, not differences.  He was showing common ground between these 3 religions.


what you state, I quote........
'The people can't do anything on their own because they have NO WEAPONS!!!! Only the military have weapons. You think rocks alone will stop this evil?'

is exactly what the Palestinian people are facing in Gaza and the Westbank.

I think you are confused.

Why are you telling me to wake up? I know better than you what is going on in Iran and in Palestine. I keep myself updated.

I am a political independent.
There is a quote below from another African American. SM
He was not offended.  What is your point? 
Would you like me to quote how many children killed TI
by Hamas Muslim suicide bombers?  Children have been dying all along. You have so little scope of this picture, it is insulting.
Ok...the link to the one quote is dead....
The rest of these are off leftist blogs. That being said...everything this pastor said, Wright has said or worse...including God dam* America. Some of the comments are over the top...but they do not preach Marxism and changing our form of government, and I don't see hatred for any race here. Wright doesn't like Jews, doesn't like Italians (garlicky I think he called them), admires Louis Farrakahn and we all know how he feels about Jews...

I am less concerned with someone saying a pipeline is God's will than I am someone saying God dam* my country and saying 9-11 was our chickens coming home to roost the very month it happened. There is no hatred from the pastor above nor from her, if in fact she said those things. Wright is hate from top to bottom.

Why don't we talk about Obama and his ties to ayers, to Alinsky, to Marxism?
Last night, heard a quote that she
supposedly said, "I'm an Alaskan, not an American" as she was fighting for secession.   How's that for country first?
