    I have no idea who the baseball player is who hugged his daughter. Not everyone has the time or inclination to watch games.

    But to suggest anyone else who then hugs his daughter does it for political reasons.

    LOL,

    Bush was Hitler.

    What do dems and the Taliban have in common?

    The really nasty ones live in caves.

    Thank you Political Jesus for making me born with the sense of humor.

    I would like to see ONE TIME anyone suggested Bush loved his daughters to score political points.

    Not funny in any way shape or form.

    If you think that is funny....you were NOT...NOT born with a sense of humor. Something else - but not humor.

    Did you think it funny when Limbaugh insulted Chelsea Clinton?

    Do you think it is funny to stick firecrackers in frogs? Same "humor."

    Ick.

    I can see the brain trust in the WH thinking, then sending BO's daughter out to show what a family man he is.




    Daddy,
    Let me give you a hug, since you have 'dropped the ball' playing games instead of playing prez!!!
    Ild wager thats pretty spot on. But shame on you RICHARD, the kids are suposed to be off limits. Unless they're Republicans then let the games begin!!!

    Ah the lefties hatered for Limbaugh, I cant stand listening to him but I hope he stays on the air for many years to come.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!

    Not sure where racism comes in from this...


    But it is hard to fake ones love for their children. I think our President is a ego-maniac, extremely Marxist in his politics and dangerous for our country. But I also believe that he truly loves and cares for his children. Short of mental illness, it is practically impossible NOT to love your children with every fiber of your soul.

    As for possibly hamming it up for the cameras??? He IS a politican after all. Its what they do.

  8. Bush "hamming it up"



    All this time I thought this a photo of Bush showing his pride in and love for his daughter.

    Thanks to PetTalk I now know it is fake and he is just copying an overpaid athlete. Being a typical politician.

    Marxist???? Oh that is so laughable. Marxist???

    And how impressed I am to know that RICHARD, you did your acid trips in a place with malachite marble! No tie-died wall hangings for you!

    Yes, I listened to the recording (and could tell where it had been edited.)

    BTW...Did you know Reagan was an anarchist? He wanted to do away with government! Anyone who believes Obama is a marxist will believe Reagan is an anarchist....

    ROTFLMAO!!!! You are really so funny!

    Of course, attack the source. There are plenty more than this one.

    Regan wanted to LIMIT government, not eliminate it.

    Laugh it up. Spin this how you wish.... The man, on tape, speaking from his heart. You have something to counter this? Share it. If all you can do is attack the source...

    If the stimulus bills were not Marxist in nature.... If a "progressive" income tax system is not Marxist in nature.... (Only people with income over $250,000...etc...)

    Yeah... Laugh it up.

    RELEASE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2009



    Lying Propaganda



    Michael Moore's new film, "Capitalism: A Love Story" will be released next month. I've neither seen nor read reviews of the film, except for a short piece in the London Telegraph (9/6/09) titled "Michael Moore film calls capitalism evil." Aware of Michael Moore's previous films, I know that it will be at best a misleading story about capitalism. So let's do some defensive mental preparation, not about the film but what is and what is not capitalism.

    Capitalism is an economic system characterized by private ownership and control over the means of production. The distribution of goods and services and their prices are mainly determined by competition in a free market. Under such a system the primary job of government is to protect private property, enforce contracts and ensure rule of law.

    There has never been a pure free market capitalistic system just as there has never been a pure communist or socialist system, where there is government ownership of the means of production and each individual has equal access to society's resources. However, we can rank economies as to whether they are closer to capitalism or closer to communism or socialism. If one ranked countries according to whether they were closer to the capitalistic end of the spectrum or the socialistic or communistic end, then ranked countries according to per capita GDP and finally rank countries according to Freedom House's "Map of Freedom in the World," he would find a pattern that is by no means a coincidence. The people in those countries closer to the capitalist end of the economic spectrum have far greater income and enjoy greater human rights protections than those toward the socialist and communist end.

    According to the London Telegraph article, Moore's film features priests who say capitalism is anti-Christian by failing to protect the poor. This is pure nonsense and revealed as such by asking, "If you're an unborn spirit, condemned by God to a life of poverty but allowed to choose the country in which to be poor, would you choose a country near the communist end of the economic spectrum or the capitalist end?" If you chose the United States, you'd find that according to the government surveys, the typical "poor" American has cable or satellite TV, two color TVs, and a DVD player or VCR. He has air conditioning, a car, a microwave, a refrigerator, a stove, and a clothes washer and dryer, and whether he has health insurance or not, he is able to obtain medical care when needed. Try to find that in Cuba, Russia, China or North Korea. If we buy into the nonsense of Moore's priests, the world's poor people are incredibly stupid. Whether fleeing legally or illegally, their destination country is likely to be closer to capitalism than their departure country.

    Most of our country's serious problems can be laid at the feet of Congress and the White House and not at capitalism. Take the financial crisis. One-third of the $15 trillion of mortgages in existence in 2008 are owned, or securitized by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae, the Federal Housing and the Veterans Administration. Banks didn't mind making risky loans and Wall Street buyers didn't mind buying these repackaged loans because they assumed that they would be guaranteed by the federal government: read bailout by taxpayers. Under a capitalist system, financial institutions would not have been intimidated or encouraged into making risky loans and neither would they have been bailed out if they did so.

    Social Security, Medicare and its coverage of prescription drugs have an unfunded liability that exceeds $100 trillion. When those roosters come home to roost, they will make the financial meltdown we've been though look like child's play.

    Not withstanding all of the demagoguery, it is capitalism not socialism is that made us a great country and its socialism that will be our undoing.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!

    Again,
    WHO brought racism into the conversation?


    IF you want to paint me with the color of a racist, prove it by quoting or give me a link to my so called 'sin'.

    Call me stupid, disrespectful or a smart arse. You'll get away with that.
    Now you have to defend your allegation that I brought race into thread.

    LOL, I have had my run-ins with 'whitey' during my time on earth and that doesn't bother me. As a matter of fact, you could go back and edit your post and save yourself the hassle of getting called out about your posting....

    I will not bother to even ask for an apology, because some people think that I am being uber sensitive about the whole deal and I know that you cannot get blood from a turnip or common sense from someone who doesn't like baseball.....

    Here's a little hint about playing the race card game.

    Fold your hand before you get to the point of yelling RACISM.

    You make yourself look like a piker and you end up losing a little credibility in the process.

    ----------------------------


    Barack Hussein Obama-

    He wants everyone to forget racism
    Including the people who suspect it in every thing they read.


    MMMM MMMM MMMMM!

    -------------------------

    Just finished watching the Ben Netanyahu speech to the UN.

    Boy,

    We should really pay attention to the people we put into office.

    This was a perfect admonition to the rest of the world. He challenged every world leader-something that cannot be done because when your leader is always apologizing for 'mistakes'
    we made.

    BN just put on tape his wishes for peace in the Mid East. He wants to be met halfway. Let's see how the eff ups react.

    It gets very taxing to hear politicians not want to dip their hands into the dish becaue we are afraid of being 'misread' as far as our military actions.

    Let's do it this way.

    Pick any topic that two governments disagree on.

    Let them take 20,000 men and their equipment and we'll do the same. (we can adjust the numbers for the countries who have small armies.)
    We'll map out a nice hundred square mile box and see who kicks the most
    arse. Who ever wins, gets THEIR way.

    Pu it on pay-per-view and let R Lee Ermey be the divine Head of TV War Games.

    Carry On!

    ------------------

    Any chance of us driving a few cruise missles up A-Mad's little Hitler, rear end?

    Heh heh heh. Ignorant little monkey.
