C’mon, lik! After you campaigned in all 57 states, you’d be tired, too!

Excuse me, you were saying?

Of course when he made the gaffe, the slavish media hack (looking like George Stephanopolis) jumped right in and helpfully corrected him.  Such help would not have been afforded a conservative.

Nice try, haaaahhaaa

Nice try of what?  Lik called it a gaffe, Puzzled.

Rob’s recently listened-to songs:

By the way, Obama has got to wish he really were Muslim.  That’d be a whole lot less weird than his actual church.

A major Freudian...oops, I meant Jihadian slip comes out of his mouth!

Yeah he must have been really tired...right!

Oh, yeah, I know, he confused the two because of the church he attended for 20 years! Probably hanging around Louis Farrakhan and Rev. Wright so long his brain was muddled between Islam and Black Liberation Theology and now he’s not sure what he is.

Or just maybe he thinks he needs to stick with “Christian” so he can sit his Muslim tush in the Oval Office.

But since we don’t know WHAT he is...and since we can’t trust him with the truth, we certainly can’t trust him to run our Country!

We need an atheist president. I never understood why people showed a preference for leaders who believe in big men who live in the clouds? Its just fucked up.

Ah, his foreign policy is okay, but does he believe in bullshit fairy tales?

If it weren’t for believer’s there wouldn’t be unalienable rights, there wouldn’t be freedom apart from some government granting it.

“Like a lot of my Democratic colleagues I was too slow to appreciate the recklessness of Fannie and Freddie. I defended their efforts to encourage affordable homeownership when in retrospect I should have heeded the concerns raised by their regulator in 2004. Frankly, I wish my Democratic colleagues would admit when it comes to Fannie and Freddie, we were wrong. By the way, I wish my Republican colleagues would admit that they missed the early warning signs, that Wall Street deregulation was overheating the securities market and promoting dangerously lax lending practices. When it comes to the debacle in our capital markets, there is much blame to go around for both sides.”

Well said HG.  May I add, there would be no All Men Are Created Equal..?

atease,

Exactly.  Acknowledging reality has been a great blessing to humanity.

that declaration of equality didn’t include black people. asshat.

More like, Unitarians, Episcopalians, Baptists, Deists, etc. 

But does that really matter?  After all, they all believe in a Creator, which proves your understanding is of lesser value to freedom loving nations.

Sparkie,

It does now.  It did to many back then as well.  Nobody said it was perfect, after all, to err is human.  It’s still better than anyhing in human history, blowhard.

Sparkie Arbuckle on September 7, 2008 at 06:00 pm:

We need an atheist president.

Sparkie, we already had one of those, his name was Bill Clinton.
After all, according to you liberals he was never heard to exclaim, while in the oval office, Oh, God, OH, God, OH! GOOOOD!

How do you like my hat?

It’s still better than anyhing in human history, blowhard.

No, actually Spinoza, the Portugese Jew-Atheist living in Amsterdam penned a better version of what Locke had in mind, replete with bible criticism, in 1670. Whaddya know, Locke owned a copy of Spinoza’s Tractatus when he wrote his stuff. Spinoza’s was ‘freer’ too.

Don’t give me your Christian selective history picking garbage. Women and blacks were excluded from atease’s referent.

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

penned a better version

Well there you have it.
Case closed.
If some “Author” wastes a ream of paper filling it up with his fantasies without ever getting around to, you know… trying them out, that automatically makes it a better system than ours… right?

How do you like my hat?

Locke never got around to it either. D’oh.

It’s still better than anyhing in human history, blowhard.

Did you know that the Vermont constitution, which predates the US constitution, abolished slavery from the get go?

Wow. Looks like the country of Vermont (that’s right) was first. And better.

Heh.

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

I guess that makes HG the blowhard.

I think mostly it was just that he was talking about how people claim he’s a Muslim and he said that McCain hasn’t talked about that. Because you’re all paranoid about him being a Muslim.

He’s toast---and biden is a wonderful agent of change. I am so impressed with B.O., the “black” man who’s half white but never called a white man. That is so neat.

The Obindenberg is docking at Lakhurst, New Jersey! LOL!

Barry panders to faith in the same manner that he panders to voters of different geographic regions and economic status. Only words.

And there’s a chink in obama’s armour that’s going to be hard to ignore.
While the author of this article clearly backs McKinney/Clamidia ticket, Larry Pinkney offers this view of obama:

“...The problem for political conjurers and tricksters is that sooner or later their trickery will engulf them. They are of course aware of this and spare no hypocrisy in making every effort to expeditiously obtain political power for the historical moment, always at the ultimate expense of the masses of everyday common folk.

Due to the horrible record of racial injustices in the United States of America, the so-called race card has been utilized by persons of virtually all political persuasions, and more often than not serves to make null and void the senses of sincere people who might otherwise be logical and clear-thinking. Barack Obama and his corporate political machine have exercised enormous skill in manipulating and mesmerizing not only Black Americans but the American people as a whole into a frenzied and dangerous stupor of myth, illusion, and denial. For a certainty, racial and other injustices and disparities must be forthrightly addressed and eradicated - not opportunistically manipulated as a tool for gaining political power.

It is an unmitigated fact the US remains in the 21st Century very much a nation of huge racial and gender disparities and injustices. Nonetheless, racism and sexism in America did not simply come about by osmosis. They were and are meticulously and deliberately developed, maintained, and utilized by the power elite of this nation, from its very founding. However, in this regard Barack Obama has chosen to castigate not only Black American males but the White working class whom he apparently, in reality, views as stupid, backwards, and most of all expendable - while simultaneously and adroitly playing upon what a prolific Black blogger referred to, as the reaction of “millions of whites bend[ing] over backwards in an attempt to demonstrate their colorblindness and to prove their ‘goodness of heart.’” None of this has been missed by the quintessential 21st Century cynical opportunist, Barack Obama, or his very active Democratic Party political machine...”

Without an honest exchange of ideas, how can a mind grow?

Just TOO funny!

Don’t give me your Christian selective history picking garbage. Women and blacks were excluded from atease’s referent.

Really Sparkie? Is that why there was all the debate? Because no one cared? Oh wait....

Did you know that the Vermont constitution, which predates the US constitution, abolished slavery from the get go?
Wow. Looks like the country of Vermont (that’s right) was first. And better.

So the Vermont delegates (among the forefather’s btw) don’t count? Really?

Slavery was allowed to get the South to cede...there’s nothing more to it than that,

For the first time in my adult life, I am ashamed of my country.

Hopefully we have learned that hipe and showmanship do not make the best leaders. Change for the sake of change does not correct a situation regardless of hope.
For those too young to remember. In the mid 70’s America was in turmoil. Gas prices had doubled. Getting out of a war regardless of consequences was the battle cry. (sound familiar) A new face from outside of D.C. appeared. He had a descent resume ( about twice the combined resumes Obama and Hilary ),he was an honorable, likable, Annapolis educated person.
In the four years that followed his election: Gas had tripled, Interest rates were 21 percent,Income taxes for working people had almost doubled, our military personnel were so underpaid that many were on food stamps in order to feed their families, we were harassed terrorized and held hostage by enemies.
Moral of the story: Pretty speeches, rhetoric, and utopian promises do not change reality,or, Change for the sake of change does not mean for the better.
Bottom line: Think the situation all the way through.

Bottom line: It’s core principles, with the character to act on them, that counts.  Elect politicians who support the Constitution and the founding principles of this country.  No one else will do.

The only legitimate role of government with regard to economics is to prevent fraud and provide a remedy- civil and criminal penalties- in case of fraud.

People have the mistaken notion that the free market has no rules.  But it most certainly does.  All our problems are due to government meddling.

American need to defend their Christian heritage. Obama will open the door for Islam to become a religion furthered in the US , while trying to shut down the door of Christendom. Muslim contradicts itself and Muslims are taught to seek and destroy Christians and Jews because they are the enemy. When the cartoons were made in Europe depicting Muslims actions, they marched in London and wanted death as they were protected by the police. While they were saying that as a group, the cartoonist was politically chastised. Where is the fairness? There is none with this faith. Obama is a pretender and he will show open favoritism to Islam. We stop the flow of this faith because it will eradicate everyone who isn’t a believer of Death to the America. IT is so wrong.

Arbuckle overlooks the fact that within 87 years of the penning of the Constitution, 600,000 Americans died in our Civil War over the very issue of human bondage.

As a result - and in spite of the writings of Spinoza, Locke, Russeau and others - it was our nation which created the world’s only truly free society; then and now.

Further, Arbuckle implies that there was unanimity in the 3/5th’s clause. There wasn’t!  It was a bitterly contested issue, resolved in the only way the Framers could find to bring about the new nation. Both sides knew that slavery would ultimately lead to a confrontation.

HE IS MUSLIM AND HE WOULDN’T FORGET IT...REMEBER THAT AMERICA, IF HE GET’S IN THOSE TERRORIST FRIENDS OF HIS WILL BE KILLING US ALL!!!

GOD HELP THE U.S.A.!!!

Obama probably meant to say my ALLEGED MUSLIM FAITH.  He has said over and over again that he is a Christian and it has been proven.  In the context of his sentence—it could easily be misconstrued.

HE IS A MUSLIM AND HE WOULDN’T FORGET IT...REMEMBER AMERICA IF HE GETS IN, HE AND HIS TERRORIST FRIENDS WILL MAKE AMERICAN BLOOD FLOW THROUGH THE STREETS. THAT’S WHAT THE MUSLIMS CHANT IN THE MOSQUE WHEN THEY PRAY!!!

Arbuckle overlooks the fact that within 87 years of the penning of the Constitution, 600,000 Americans died in our Civil War over the very issue of human bondage.

Even funnier, he cites Vermont’s accomplishments, real or imagined - 200 years ago, as if they were his own! Heh.

Excuse me, you were saying?

Obama probably meant to say my ALLEGED MUSLIM FAITH.

Agreed! I blame the guy not running the teleprompter!

Excuse me, you were saying?

So the Vermont delegates (among the forefather’s btw) don’t count? Really?

They don’t count until 1791 ass. Before that, Vermont was its own country. They negotiated with the British… and even later sat out of the war of 1812. Maybe we could say not before the mid 1800s. Not exactly the same as the rest of the forefathers. Ethan Allen, for example, was never an American, no matter how much you whine. He died 2 years before Vermont was added to the USA. Getting added was one of the big diplomatic mistakes of the late 1700s IMO. WHo would’ve predicted the Fed would turn out to be such a cesspool of corrupt, blackmailing douchebags… like it is now.

600,000 Americans died in our Civil War over the very issue of human bondage.

Incorrect. Most Soldiers fought for states that had economic or political (but not ‘human rights’ reasons to reign in the south. Vermont actually had abolitionists then.

Even funnier, he cites Vermont’s accomplishments, real or imagined - 200 years ago, as if they were his own! Heh.

I grew up in Vermont. I am proud of that country’s heritage. Just like PP is proud of his country’s heritage.

Whatever. I proved HG wrong.

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

He said it, and you heard it!  If you really wanna know about his religion see the video OBSESSION:Radical Islam’s War Against the West (and no, I’m not selling/promoting it, stupid). We have to vote to keep our very FREEDOM here people!  There will be no need to worry about car/house payments, gas prices, etc… while behind barbed wire!! Let’s keep the war on THEIR soil (Osama will bring it HERE)! p.s. I’ll say it, he DOES look like Curious George ~ hehehehe

Kenny and Poof,
Also, view the conflicts Vermont was having with New York and New Hampshire between, say, 1770 and 1780s. The continental congress actually considered invading but, smartly, didn’t (They would have gotten their asses kicked).

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

To be fair,
The two countries did fight side by side during the revolutionary war at Saratoga, for example. Also, we bailed you guys out bigtime in Bennington and Hubbarton. The canons and gunpowder from Ticonderoga, which Vermont captured, also ended up tipping it in our direction in Boston.
I think one of the reasons the Continental Congress choose not to invade was the precedent they had. They knew a few Vermonters could apply quite a spanking to the Brits. Gen Burgoyne sure was scared of those backwoodfolks.

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

Had he not been corrected by the interviewer, he would have gone right on with whatever he was going to say.  What does that tell you?  He seemed a little flustered to me, what do you think?

An excellent example of a Freudian slip circulating in his angry black power organinzin’-Stokely Carmichael imitatin’-Corrupt South Side Chicago radical supportin’-- Louis Farrakhan-black muslim worshpin’’-pro-palestian terrorits donatin’-Rashid Khaldi lovin-sub-conscious mind.

The guys a Muslim.  How can he be trusted. His allegiance and pledge is in Islam. Don’t want to see this country go the way as Britain catering to those Islamic goons.

That’s not even a gaffe, STUPID!  He was quoting those who called HIM a muslim, you moron.

That was not a gaffe - he said the right thing. John McCain has said nothing about Obama having a muslim faith. Sure, it was not exactly the clearest way of saying that, but he did not say he has a muslim faith.

I don’t see an ‘Oops!’ about any of it.  If he gains, or re-gains faith as a Muslim, God bless him!  If he becomes a better Christian — God bless him.  If he becomes closer to God, God bless him.  I’d rather have a president who’s heart is yearning to follow the God of the People of the Book, than to have one that is sure “God told me,” and felt justified in genocide of Muslims and Christians–worse yet, to help a people that don’t even believe in his God.  5pillar.wordpress.com

Not one of the people who gave speeches for Barack Hussein Obama gave any insight into what Barack Hussein Obama’s actual accomplishments were! He was NO significant resume; he DOES have LOTS of shady characters he’s hung with… Rezco the slum lord, Ayers the terrorist and there will be more on his shady dealings with Ayers coming out, and no one should forget about the white hating Rev. Racist Wright. Barack Hussein Obama’s 20 year pastor and mentor who spewed hatred and GD’d America; and of course he does have his never been proud of America wife! Obama has No credits on his side worthy of the Presidency. His younger years were in Indonesia; he was raised for some time in his young life as a Muslim, his Muslim father sent him to an Islamic school so Barack Hussein Obama has been taught Islamic principles.  American voters should also remember this man did drugs in his 20’s.  Barack Hussein Obama has admitted that its above his pay grade to know if an aborted fetus that survives out of the womb has a right to medical attention or life; the lists against this man are endless. I do not trust this man who has a 20 year mentor called Rev. Racist Wright that GD our America!  This man should NOT be our President!  He will side with his Islamic brothers in arms and sell America down the river.  He doesn’t not respect or honor our flag or our Pledge of Allegence.  John McCain has served his country always, sometimes with his own blood.  I know John McCain loves America—I DO NOT believe Barack Hussein Obama loves this country - just the power it will give him!

Isn’t John Dean from Vermont?

Obama said EXACTLY what he meant!!! If he was reading his teleprompter that contains all his LIES perhaps the TRUTH wouldn’t have come out!!!

It isn’t WHAT people believe, but WHY they believe it that matters.  The 911 terroists attacked because they were insane fanatics.  They used Islam as a justification, if the were Christian, or any other religion they would attacked used that religion as justification.  Obama is not Muslim, his statement was obviously a gaffe.  Remember, most Muslims are NOT terriosts, although most terrorists are Muslim.

It appears to me that Barack did not mispeak.  He was simply attempting to express his appreciation that McCain had refrained from accusing him of being Muslim.  His correction seems to make that clear.

Even funnier, he cites Vermont’s accomplishments, real or imagined - 200 years ago, as if they were his own! Heh.

And yet, he persists! (I guess it’s the “as if they were his own” part that has him stymied!)

Sparkie is just a smoothbore musket in an M-16 world!
(Actually, blunderbuss would be more accurate!) Heh.

BTW, Sparkie: A blunderbuss is NOT what Obama throws his staff, family and friends under, despite the similar sounds!

Excuse me, you were saying?

There has been a false suggestion my many anti-Obama individuals that the candidate is Muslim.  In the interview he stated that John McCain has not mentioned his “Muslim faith” - and the interviewer corrected him to say “Christian faith.” As we fade out, Obama is explaining that McCain was not painting him as a Muslim as others have.  In conversation it akin to him saying, “John McCain has not mentioned my lack of patriotism” or “John McCain has not mentioned my patriotism” to make the same point.  A smart person would realize that a stupid person would make an issue of this.  John McCain would be ashamed of anyone that thought this should be the debate.

I guess you’re not “smartenough” to know that we don’t want a black separatist/Marxist/liar as President of our country.  This particular lie about his faith is just icing on the cake.

The only legitimate role of government with regard to economics is to prevent fraud and provide a remedy- civil and criminal penalties- in case of fraud.

People have the mistaken notion that the free market has no rules.  But it most certainly does.  All our problems are due to government meddling.

Obama was NOT stating that he had a “Muslim faith”.  What I heard was that McCain talked about everything else and accused Obama of everything but having a “Muslim faith.”

People hear what they want to hear regardless of how articulate anyone is.

I am a 77 year old senior and voted democratic in my younger years until the night I went to my first caucus and the democratic leader was asked how to respond to people if they got questions from the politician running for office.  The leader said:  “Tell them anything, the American people are stupid and will believe anything.” I became a Republican that evening.  I see Obama trying to do the same!

Someone put a muzzle on Obama.  He has foot-in-mouth disease in the extreme.

It is amazing to me… the number of people who condemn Obama’s church, having no idea that the Trinity United Church of Christ is an affiliate of a larger, almost 90% caucasian denomination.  Surely if the church were that racist, the larger denomination would have shut it down many years before.  The fact is, whites have known what Wright’s church is like for quite a while, but the church has a lot of members so therefore brings in a lot of money.  Is it really racist?  I doubt it.  But shocking people gains this much attention, abd I imagine Mr. Wright discovered this long before any of you foolish bloggers heard snippets of his tirades.  LOL you’re all suckers!

Surely if the church were that racist, the larger denomination would have shut it down many years before.

Surely you wouldn’t feel this way if you had heard any of ‘reverend’ Wrights speech where he blames all of the blacks misfortunes on the whites.

You don’t have to be a moron to be a liberal Democrat but it sure helps.

Sparkie: 

that country’s heritage.

Last time I looked, Vermont was a state just like the 49 others.

I hate to point this out, arbuckle, but before the ratification of the Constitution, all 13 former colonies were independent countries with their own constitutions.

And abolitionists were to be found in Conn., Mass, NY, NJ, PA, OH, Mich, DE, Maine, NH… etc.

Vermont is a nice little place, but hardly unique.

If this was not a gaffe, why did the interviewer feel the need to correct Obama “You mean Christian Faith”, and Obama takes the hint and corrects himself.

Who knows, maybe he misspoke, or was thinking of something else.

What is bad is he did say it, he did get corrected by the interviewer and he did take the hint and change what he had said.

What is said has been said and it is out there for everyone to debate and talk about.

a slip
there are 50 united states and 57 islamic states

face it !!!

Say NO to Barrack Husein O(s)bama.He is not only muslim he also is ARAB.
We all know it was not a slip...people be aware.

Too Late, its out and the rest will come out!!!
