JM Linsner fan?

And as they say, laugh and the world laughs with you; cry and you cry alone.

And suddenly, with the men appeared the archangel Gabriel and the whole host of the heavenly choir, ranks of cherubim and seraphim, all praising God and singing: “Yes, We Can.”

AMEN!

This is awesome. Seriously brilliant.

Not being a US citizen I won’t be able to cast a vote for McCain anyway. So I’ll just sit back and enjoy the fireworks if the Obamesiah gets elected.

It might not be good for the planet, but it’s bound to be good for entertainment, at least until the Obabolsheviks come storming in and confiscate my PC for thought-crimes.

This whole trip made me sick…and Im still sick and I’m awaiting the arising of yesterday’s breakfast. :)

… so surely he had time to spare for a private visit with the troops he admires so much.

Really, at least spare a few minutes for a laying on of hands.

I don’t know that another word need be written about the Dalai Bama (pardon me while I mix spiritual metaphors) for the rest of the campaign. This sums it all up.

The last time I saw such fervor over following one man some 900 people ended up on their bloated bellies in a South American jungle.

The Republicans still have a political ideology?

Wow, who knew?

It’s down but not out and still retains some semblance of it’s former glory, which in large part are the same principles our country was founded upon. Freedom and liberty. The same principles that many leftists claim to espouse even while they work feverishly to undermine them in favor of their Utopian fantasies.

Wow, who knew?

Aah, another “conservative” s[t?]uck in the 80s, Floating?

Ah, sorry, you must be a lefty troll and probably weren’t intending to suggest that Obama would turn out to be a mass-murderer like so many other leftist leaders in the past, many of whom commanded the same blind adoration of their followers as Obama currently does. You probably honestly believe that Bush has concentration camps tucked around the country with black helicopters and UFO’s flying around and other assorted kooky goings on. Maybe some evil clowns with acid spraying lapel flower pins?

Since you brought it up, I’m not one who supports shipping all of our vital industries over seas but on the other hand, I would rather be associated with the party who has trust in the overarching goodness of humanity and takes such a risk rather than with a political ideology which has so often led to the mass-murder of innocent civilians who’s only crime was to speak their minds or holding a political view divergent from the official line of a totalitarian government.

America couldn’t survive these days without handouts from Communist China.

The leaders of the right won’t admit it until their done selling our country to the Commies…

Wonder if one of McCain’s 13 homes is a condo in Shanghai?

American Jews are gonna vote for the party that wants to be able to send any American off to a camp whenever they want?

Fat chance.

alphie on July 25, 2008 at 2:33 AM

Just because Obama is a socialist, perhaps a Marxist, and the adoration of his fans bears some similarities to the Third Reich and other fascist movements doesn’t indicate that he would send American’s off to “camps”. I’m not aware of any evidence at all that would suggest anything of the sort. Sure, the Fairness doctrine and some of the other anti-American tendencies of the Democrats may be troubling in combination with the other factors, but modern European socialism hasn’t resulted in gulags, even if leftist ideologies in other parts of the world have continued to exact a heavy death toll post WWII.

Leftist ideologies don’t always lead to mass-murder, although they all too often do.
