President Barack Obama - Term 1 and 2 Thread

[treetopovskaya]

Your hero would be a guy that hoped G.I. Jim would be on the mortal end of an I.E.D. After all, you are a liberal democrat and there's a huge amount of them (which you or may not be included in), like the freaks in Berkeley and SF, that root for our troops to die. Nice hero you have.

Total distortion.
I've got plenty of friends that are serving, or have served, their country.
Quote me in context or shut the fuck up.

Dude, you do not want to go there, do you? You of all people telling someone to stay classy,


my fucking sides are splitting and I 've only been on here for 10 minutes after taking the morning and early afternoon to spend with the wife and Grandson before the ballgame. Stay classy!

I'm here for the rest of the day probably, might just need to do a tad bit o'reasearch, all in fun of course.

i know... huh?

LOL!!

Anyone calling a downs syndrome child a "retard" has not known the beauty of children with downs. They are full of life and love. I would say that is the most ugly thing I have ever heard anyone say. Talk about a total lack of heart and class.

Shower it with euphemisms all you want, Down Syndrome is a form of mental retardation.

[treetopovskaya]

Yeah, and don't forget referring to a down syndrome baby, as a "backwoods retard baby".

That is correct.
Not politically correct enough for you, RWF?
I had no idea you were so sensitive.

we didn't know you were so sensitive.

My husband works with Downs syndrome adults every day. He loves his job. I love my students with learning disabilities. And they know enough to know such words hurt. Stuff your smug attitude, try having a bit of a heart instead. Better yet Mr. sensitive.......volunteer at a special olympics game.

Down Syndrome is a type of mental retardation.
You want to call them "children of god", go right ahead.
Makes no difference to me.
To all the lurking Down Syndrome afflicted MR posters I have offended, I sincerly apologise (tho I have a feeling all the short bus graduates are centralized in this thread).

Your truely full of yourself! You get on here and spout how touchy feely left leaning folks are, and I beleive many are. But I don't see any heart or compassion in your writing. Just a great deal of self indulgent uglyiness. I am an independent. And the extreme folks on both the left and the right are more alike than they will ever know.

I find it offensive, because I am friends with people with downs.


You use that term like they are beneath you.

No, Palin is a hillbilly mountain girl, I make no bones about that.
Her clan comes right out of central casting for a Wes Craven cannibal flick and makes the Clampetts look like the Vanderbilts.

I would rather be a hillbilly than to stoop so low to attack a child with downs for political grandstanding.

And the Democrats are going to pay heavy price for it come 2010.

Depends what the Democrats can show for it.
Wasn’t it Bill Clinton who said "run on your record" or something like that?
as I understand it, most of this bill doesn't take effect for years, but some provisions set in immediately.
Things like banning recissions and insuring those with pre-existing conditions could end up more popular than you may think.
Either way, I’m just glad sick people are going to get the help they need.

You and I are, but the right wing would rather see them be ill than have to give a dime to help them, sadly. If someone didn't say before me, "If your favorite word is "me", you're 'Right'.

You dopes are advocating have people die sooner, not purposely of course...just due to your own incompetence!!!

I had a nice profanity laden response typed, but it's like pissing in the ocean with you block heads.

Yeah, just let it rip in your effort to increase cancer deaths here in the states to match UK and Canada. At least we'll ALL be EQUALLY at risk of dying sooner! I know that's whats important to you libs. I pity anyone who comes into my home and strips the healthcare from my son and family. These politicians need to be strung up from the highest tree. I condone anything that happens to them!

I heard Obama say, if you have health care, nothing will change in your coverage. Said it right there on TV. If you're paying for your own health care, how could anything change? And you're paying for nationwide health care already. Unpaid medical bills cost the government nearly $1B last year. I just don't see how everyone doesn't think it's a great idea. People in the medical profession should be jumping for joy on that one. Many more jobs will be created in the medical field, and the $1B saved will pay for the whole damn thing. The only thing it won't cover is people in this country illegally.

Rick you can't be that naive man. "You heard him say?" If I had a dime for every time I heard a politician say something that turned out to be true... I'd have no money!

As for your argument regarding the industry, absolutely NOT! The health insurance industry, like it or not, employs tons of AMericans. They will be devastated. Medical professionals are scared shitless right now too. I just saw my physician for my check-up and he's about ready to close down his practice if all the things that are allegedly about to come to pass do.

I appreciate nobody beating the piss out of me for this statement. I deleted and typed so many times and still screwed up the post. Meant to say the $1B and other cost saving measures. Certainly, $1 Billion wouldn't cover it.

ACORN (the paragon of community organizing scumbaggery) dumps documents amidst an investigation by the California Attorney General. (This is the same organization, if you remember, that gave advice on human smuggling and child prostitution.)

To whom are you referring? Nothing in what TNC posted in any way made intimations towards her child. Besides, Governess Sarah didn't have much time for that poor child while she was campaigning on lies and politics of hatred, did she? She has little more credibility than Carrie "Sex Toy" Prejean.

Come on, Daniel. You're better than that. Calling any child a 'backwoods retard baby' is low, even for this board. We wouldn't like it if the child of one of our own here was called something like that. No matter what you think of the mother, the child should be off limits.

IDK Frank. It doesn't matter to me either way, I just don't want folks mad at Lula for something that he may have said under her account. I could be wrong. If I am, I apologize.

This is a big story. ACORN dumped some 20,000 documents into a dumpster days before the Cali Attn. Gens office showed up. Too bad for ACORN that a Private Investigator was on the case and retrieved those documents. Can't wait to learn what's in them.

Just a gang of poorly educated, yet somewhat organized, street thugs trying to elect other street thugs. And it worked. I still marvel that people aren't calling out Obama and his terrorist coddling administration for the public trials of the 9-11 plotters. Obama went to great lengths to ensure sure that: the 9-11 families have to relive the horrible events one last vivid time, his terrorist Muslim brothers get the stage, front and center, to thumb their noses at our country and use it as fuel to recruit more people to plot attacks, and I can guarantee that he will push for and get the death penalty because he wants to honor these scumbags with martyrdom by giving them the death penalty. The way this is going to unfold is as detrimental to America as legally possible and the commander in chief wants it that way.

Bush already tried terrorists in civilian courts without fail, so what exactly is the problem?
Throughout the Bush years, JAGs resigned from the secret military tribunals calling them rigged, or essentially kangaroo courts.
No such problem exists with our federal courts - and a growing number of Conservatives agree.

And you're wrong.
Giving the terrorists a fair trial, showing to the world that America doesn't need to compromise her ideals (aka "trading liberty for security"), is the LAST thing they could possibly want.
That may sound like some flowery bullshit, but it's the truth.

no one cares when it's a man who has kids.

get with it wishes! }:C)) we can bring home the bacon AND fry it up in a pan. hehe.

I agree. My issue with the Governess is how she propped herself up to be so astute and such a family woman. Her interview with Oprah did no favors to her image.

My issue was with calling a downs syndrome baby a "Backwoods retard baby". I could care less if he loves Sarah Palin or not. Children should not be pawns to attack in people's political game........regardless of what side of the fence you ride. Much less a disabled child. Support that kind of attack if you wish. I find it deplorable.

Your ignorance is unbelievable. Every decent President since Hoover has engaged in respectful diplomacy. Even W managed to hold hands with the Prince of Saudi Arabia. Had he not, he would have been perceived as disrespectful, which would have been in addition to the rest of the world's belief that W was incompetent and a warmonger.
