Let’s give ‘em one MORE thing, how ’bout it?

How about we give them as many disgruntled AMERICAN AFRICANS as want to return to living in mud huts????

I’ll even pitch in for the boat fare…..

Great idea, I’ll pitch in for a couple of tickets! So when does the boat leave as I want to be sure Jessie and Al are on it!

actually do have Kenyan blood so the line forms behind me. :)

Yeah? Well, I’ve also got American Indian blood AND I posted first!!!!

Back of the ObamaMessiah Bus Biznatch!! ;)

Realistically? It’s simply not possible. They have a corrupt government and an amoral familist culture. There’s absolutely nothing other than foreign occupation and control that can save them, because amoral familism means their government will always be corrupt and incompetent.

Everybody has his or her own critique of Obama’s speech. I thought it was OK. Why is this such a big deal? The guy got a promotion. I had collected a bunch of …

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Where’s the noun modified by the (in your view) adjective “God”?

Surely you realize the original wasn’t written in English.

Christians call him God (capitalized) because we accept that no others exist. Those who follow Zeus do the same with him.

Yet, Christians call Zeus god, and Zeus followers call I Am, god. Is it sinking in yet?

Whining about the grammar Allah chooses to use is as legalistic as they come, which is what Jesus came to abolish.

Google God or god and see how many people -even an atheist site- agree with you on the first page of the search results.

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Where’s the noun modified by the (in your view) adjective “God”?

You are just making stuff up.

Huh, so it’s zeus, not Zeus. Interesting.

Akzed on January 21, 2009 at 11:57 AM

Zeus is a name. God isn’t. It’s a description.

I would call you Akzed, but I wouldn’t call you Man. The implication should be fairly obvious.

Character names are also capitalized, but a nonexistent god is not capitalized.

Even if you think God does not exist you should capitalize it, for the same reason that I capitalize the name Sherlock Holmes even though I don’t believe that he really exists!

Seriously, you’re fighting a battle with no purpose.

so let me get this straight. It is in bad taste and unamerican, according to the masses here, to boo the outgoing president for his performance, yet it is totally patriotic to already dismiss a new president who has not been in office even 24 hours using all kinds of “issues” (read back on this thread just to see a few) … it must be hard for you all to be in the minority knowing that most people disagree with you. Keep it up, the dems will win even more seats in 2010. Your party is becoming irrelevant.

I posted the response below to the above post on the Bush bashing/jeering thread and I think it fits here as it is obvious THE ONE has been placed on such a high pedestal both by his supporters, the complicite MSM, and his own campaign that there is no way he’s going to be able to live up to his highness!

It will be a truly spectacular fall from that high pedestal they have built for THE ONE!

First of all monkei you can thank yourself and all the other Obama supporters and the in-the-tank MSM for placing THE ONE on such a high pedastal that he will never be able to live up to his own expectations let alone all of the expectations and the “hope and change” that all of you have placed squarely on Obambi’s shoulders.

Perhaps next time all of you will be more careful not to deify your candidate to the point where all of your hopes, dreams, self worth, hearts and souls are bet on someone that is nothing more than a regular politician and not the second coming!

You and all the other Obambi supporters and the complicite MSM are responsible for elevating him from regular politician to deity status, someone you THINK can solve ALL of America and the world’s problems and therefore it is YOU and all those that placed him on such a high pedestal that will be responsible for his fall and wen that fall happens (and it will) perhaps YOU and others will finally realize he’s just a regular politician after all and that YOU and others set yourselves up for a big let down for setting such unrealistic and unattainable goals!

You reap what you sow monkei, or maybe you’ll all just try to keep blaming the “evil rethuglicans” for Obama’s failures, but deep down you’ll know that’s another lie you tell yourself and the longer you tell yourself that lie the more depressing and difficult it will be to face the truth, and that truth is Obama is just another politician and not the second coming!

Take heart though monkei, I will be there to witness the fall and I will gleefully point and laugh at all you kool-aid drinking moonbats and relish watching the hammer of reality smash your fantasy rose colored world into little pieces!

When referring to God it is capitalized. When referring to a god, namely an idol or other non-existent god, it is not.

Oh, and by the way, you should capitalize “God” (and “Allah” and “Jehovah”) because it is a name. (Do not capitalize the generic term “gods.”) Even if you think God does not exist you should capitalize it, for the same reason that I capitalize the name Sherlock Holmes even though I don’t believe that he really exists!

Better watch out, Rush!

Uh, that’s God, not god AP.

Akzed on January 21, 2009 at 11:21 AM

Not to an atheist. You use God when you are actually using the name of a person/being. It’s god if you mean a god that doesn’t exist.

I wish people would stop pointing this out to Allah. You can’t force him to respect Christian tradition, and it’s unlikely he’s unaware.

We’ve got a trillion-dollar stimulus in the chute and god knows how many more billions coming…

Uh, that’s God, not god AP. Come to think of it, why would an atheist attribute knowledge to God? Why not just leave Him alone?

Kuck Fenya.

Yeah right!

President Man-child, yeah, that is who we are stuck with for four years.

Some Americans & Kenyans truly idiots!

Absolutely correct. Reference FDR’s second and third term.

Someone needs to get on the horn and tell Kenya there is no butting in line, they need to get behind the car companies, banks, newspapers, land developers, cell phone companies, dental floss stringers, street sweepers and the states of NY, NJ, CA, MA and perhaps OR.

We can only print money so fast, they will just have to wait their turn.

And don’t forget the millions of illegal aliens who received sub-prime mortgages that are now in default. They’re going to be receiving “foreclosure assistance” so they can hold onto those homes they couldn’t afford in the first place.

And for those of you telling us to google the Global Poverty Act, most posters on this site are well aware of this Obama-sponsored POS bill. We’ve been talking about it for a long time. The problem is, thanks to the MSM slobber-fest over Obama, most of the rest of the country is clueless about it.

The bad news is that we are only 10 hours into Barry’s term. The good news is that we can now begin the countdown to his departure

I agree. I really believe the guy peeked yesterday. I give him 6 months before the novelty wears off. I think he may peek again at his State of the Union. That will be another big media first frenzie love fest. But,, the love fest party thing and going to the beach to body surf is,, well, it’s not going to carry him through the next 4 years.
