I still think it is better to tell people "if you work hard you can make something of yourself", then to tell people "it doesnt matter if you work hard, the capitalist pigs are still going to keep you down"...no matter what the situation or who says it I prefer the former over the later.

So in your mind this quote from Obama's speech is supposed to illustrate his "Soviet", "Marxist", "Anti-American" character, is it? So this particular quote from the speech was the best that you could come up with to support your viewpoint? Hey, I'm open minded and willing to hear the pros and cons for and against Obama or any other candidate, but I'm not going to give any weight to your opinions. You're operating in outer space.

Like Sam, Concerned American is not connecting the dots for me, either. Leaps of rhetoric in support of an illogical argument don't impress me.

Funny, you have the same translation problem Jimbo often does when he copies and pastes for our amusement: — we’re That’s you’re

Concerned American, aka Jimbo, I'm with you on this. Raising a family? Owning your own home? Sending your kids to college? Upward mobility? All of that is just sooooo Soviet! Only a Marxist collectivist could talk about such things.

Capitalism is what we need to fight for. Because it promises that if you work hard, as most poor people do, you're likely to have everything you hope for -- family stability, house, education, a move into the middle class -- just go right down the toilet.

Barack O'Stalin doesn't realize that many of us don't WANT an education. Why get educated when it means being indoctrinated by Soviet Marxist high school and college teachers? (We need more home schooling at the university level!!!) Many of us don't WANT to buy a house (more taxes to feed the federal pig). Family stability? We wouldn't have to worry about that if women would get off their immoral baby-producing infanticide contraceptives and engage in abstinence like it says in the Constitution.

These are scary times and we need a severe solution. Fortunately we have 4 wonderful capitalist-loving Republican candidates who don't care about Americans' homes, families, educations, and upward mobility. Vote Republican, say NOPE TO HOPE in 2012.

Here is a resource that the MainStreamMedia does not want you to know about.

It is an eBook and while not free ($4), it is well-worth it.

Entitled "Saul Alinsky, The Evil Genius Behind Obama"

Web Link

Also, to those of you who criticize my beliefs, I understand completely. I was a staunch Democrat for many years and was raised in by staunch Democrats. So naturally I believed this party was my fate.

I encourage you to keep an open mind. Read the above link and also Mark Levin's "Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America"

Respectfully yours, C.A.

Yeah, right. We can tell just from the title that it is an unbiased analysis of Obama.

OK, that's it. I'm not wasting any more of my time by commenting on these political posts by people on the far right.

Posted by Concerned American, a resident of the Amador Estates neighborhood, on Feb 26, 2012 at 11:11 am

Sam,

Of course my references have a conservative, pro-American bias. There are no truly non-biased sources anymore...or perhaps never were. A difference is that my sources reveal their biases upfront, vs the MainStream Media and others.

I read leftist sources and thought leaders frequently. Then I read materials from conservative sources. I make a value judgment about whom to believe and then weigh their principles against my principles.

So despite the fact that the above sources are admittedly conservative, I encourage you to open your mind to read them...or others that are more in line with our US Constitutional principles.

Regards

That's okay, Jimbo, you hang in there! Don't let the evil ones get you down! Obviously the fifth-grade level reading material you recommend - tailored specifically for people with emotional difficulties, deep seated hatred, and a penchant for conspiracy theories - is way way beyond the grasp of Sam and the rest of the liberal dunces. Don't mind them, we have a country to save, one dummy at a time. You're my hero! You have a proAmerican bias. People on the left have a proSoviet Union bias. Ha! They don't even have a country any more!

The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph. Will it read as above or will it be a more happy ending for most of America ?

If you are an Obama Supporter don't be angry with me because I think Barrack HusseinObama is a socialist. Far too many facts support he is indeed a Socialist.

Marcia,

you are right in so many ways.

So which of the Republican are you gonna vote for? I guess you voted for Bush and he did send our kids to Iraq and Afghanistan. He did spent the Clinton surplus into the unpaid for wars. Tell us why we should all vote Republican in a long laundry list please!

Marcia,

You start out so strongly and like most Obama-haters crash into a wall.

If Obama is a socialist, then using your thinking, you must be a Nazi.

The rest of your diatribe is not worth spending any more time on.

Posted by Marcia is my heroin, a resident of the Civic Square neighborhood, on Feb 27, 2012 at 5:07 pm

Marcia is my heroin. I agree with everything she writes. If you read what has been written by the Constitutional scholars at the famous Hillsdale college in rural Michigan, you'll find out that Marcia forgot to mention that Obama is a communist muslim Nazi terrorist and that he wasn't even born in the US, he was born in Hawaii and that's a fact.

Posted by Concerned American, a resident of the Amador Estates neighborhood, on Feb 27, 2012 at 5:24 pm

Dear "Marcia_I_Ain't"

Sorry to inform you.

Hitler was a Socialist, similar to Obama.

This is a common misconception and I don't blame you for not knowing this because many public schools teach that Nazi-ism is a far-right extreme view. It is extreme...yes...but leftist extreme.

The word "Nazi" is short for "National Socialism"

Here is more info...

Web Link

Nazism, the common short form name of National Socialism (German: Nationalsozialismus) was the ideology and practice of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (otherwise known as the Nazi Party) and of Nazi Germany.[1][2][3][4] It is a unique variety of fascism that incorporates biological racism and antisemitism.[5] Nazism was founded out of elements of the far-right racist völkisch German nationalist movement and the violent anti-communist Freikorps paramilitary culture that fought against the uprisings of communist revolutionaries in post-World War I Germany.[6] The ideology was developed first by Anton Drexler and then Adolf Hitler as a means to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism.[7] Initially Nazi political strategy focused on anti-big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric, though such aspects were later downplayed in the 1930s to gain the support from industrial owners for the Nazis; focus was shifted to anti-Semitic and anti-Marxist themes.[8]

I think you owe "Marcia" an apology.

Marcia...you ROCK!

Posted by Marcia is my heroin, a resident of the Civic Square neighborhood, on Feb 27, 2012 at 5:35 pm

Concerned American says "many [communist influenced] public schools teach that Nazi-ism is a far-right extreme view. It is extreme...yes...but leftist extreme."

Later, Concerned American supports his claim: "Nazism was founded out of elements of the far-right racist völkisch German nationalist movement and the violent anti-communist Freikorps paramilitary culture that fought against the uprisings of communist revolutionaries in post-World War I Germany."

So you see? The communist public schools don't know what they're talking about.

Also, when people tell you they are "Democratic Socialists" (like in Sweden), they are actually "Nazis." Because everyone knows that the Democratic Socialist Swedes are virulant antiSemitic Nazis, just like Hitler.

I am soooooo happy that we have posters on this site like Marcia, Concerned American, Jimbo, ... and ME :-) to set the record straight. BTW, Obama is an anti-semitic communist Nazi, just like Hitler and the modern day Swedes. (Obama is also a Muslim terrorist who wants to sacrifice your sons and daughters on the altar of Cher Ria Law.)

Let's face it. Obama is a hollow zoot suit who needs a teleprompter to tell him which side of the bed to get out of. I voted for him, but he's way over his head. All he does is take vacations, golf, and try to sing like the Ray Charles wanna be he is. He's the worst president ever. And don't get me started on his wife. She's a shame to the feminine sex. She really is. Everything will be better once the magic happy underwear guy gains the presidency.
