Now to your thoughts….

I thank God every day that Obama has had only 9 months to inflict socialism or worse on our country. Americans seem to be waking up to the threat he and his ideas, actions and world view are to what we have built over the last 233 years. I hope and pray that the tide is turning before we go further down the tube than he has tried to take us already.

Regarding George Bush, I agree with you, a great speaker and smooth talker he is not. Probably the best pure speakers we have had since the turn of the century have been Bill Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama. To discuss Clinton’s character is fruitless. You know what I and a growing number of Americans think of Obama.

The three most intellectual Presidents in modern times are probably Clinton, Obama and Jimmy Carter. Carter couldn’t get out of his own way. Now he can’t keep his mouth shut even though he has nothing of value to say.

Now back to Bush….I believe, contrary to what I’m confident you espouse, that he and Reagan were different in many ways and similar in others. Reagan possessed a folksy way of communicating truth, core positive values and reality in a manner that engendered confidence and hope. Bush didn’t possess that same degree of communication ability, but he did, like Reagan, have the guts and will to protect this country at all cost. And before you jump full force on to the “at all cost” phrase and relate it to Iraq, remember WWII, do the math on it and consider the results.

Lies and half truths…..I agree, I hate them both! Take a look and see where they are coming from. Flyboy admitted to a socialistic position. And you have also snugged up close to it yourself. Don’t mix up socialism and fascism with benevolence for those in true need and a willingness to be a part of their own solution. SCAM the system….that’s what Obama is best at.

I know Flyboy and have for decades. We have discussed many issues over the years. We and a number of our readers have been trying to get him to write something cohesive and thoughtful….to no avail. You have come to his aid…thankfully. We would love to continue engaging you on issues…..please come back. Flyboy is welcome too…if his wife, who is a dear sweet lady, will let him return.

Your good friend is in a tough spot. Some people do get caught in the cracks of an imperfect system. Socializing the system as Pelosi, Reed and Obama want will not solve that problem, it will only exacerbate it. Communities, including churches, have abdicated the responsibility of tending to the poor, widowed and orphans. This has opened the door for professional crooks including self serving government, corporate and independent thieves to fill the gap. Thus, we have made our own bed…..but if we wake up and act we will not have to continue to lie down in it…we can change it. By the way, how much have you given to your friend to help her in her dilemma. Just thought I’d ask.

And finally regarding Christianity……Christianity does not emanate from kindness and compassion. Kindness and compassion often do and should emanate from Christianity. Christianity is a result of accepting God’s gift of his Son as the reconciliation of sinful man to the perfect God. I am a Christian. Strong debate over issues, seeking truth and often including significant differences and harsh words are not, contrary to your position, antithetical to Christianity.

Thanks for your thoughts. We look forward to hearing from you again.

Compare the quotes from each President and gosh, one of them sounds…uh, retarded. And it isn’t President Obama.

I’m not sure why the people on this site are so mean-spirited. I understand we all have our particular political bents but spite and acting like third-graders with the name calling is not attractive in anyone – especially folks that parade themselves around as “Christians”.

So many people enjoy spreading lies and half-truths – liberals and conservatives alike. I’m pretty sick of it all – the only reason I’m on this site is because of my uncle, Flyboy. You all have said some pretty harsh things here to him and about him. I know damn well my uncle isn’t a socialist nor does he advocate the country being a socalist country. But, truthfully, there are SOME aspects of socialism that are appealing, such as universal healthcare. Personally, I don’t mind paying a little extra in taxes to help out my fellow Americans. Now, if you’re healthy and able-bodied trying to run a scam on the system, I’ll be the first to kick you in the butt but there are plenty of REAL people who need help that they aren’t getting right here in the U.S.

A very good friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with narcolepsy, a disease she’s had all her life but some doctor finally figured it out after all this time. She recently (after two years of hearings) was awarded disabilty for the whopping sum of $962 per month. Unfortunately, the medicine she needs is only $1300 per month, which leaves somewhat of a deficit…even by Bernie Madoff accounting principals. Are we really going to turn our backs on people like this? I don’t even pretend to be a christian but I do have compassion and kindness for others and it certainly would be nice to see a bit more of that in this world.

‘I don’t know what you mean by “glory,”‘ Alice said
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. ‘Of course you don’t–till I tell you.
I meant “there’s a nice knock-down argument for you!”
‘But “glory” doesn’t mean “a nice knock-down argument,”‘ Alice objected
‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it
means JUST what I CHOOSE it to mean–neither MORE nor LESS.

Like I have said, I am mad at myself for wasting my time on this narcissistic website and I don’t want to waste any more time playing your assume/pretend game. I’d rather pop some popcorn. But if it is any comfort to you, I would rather look at your website than go shopping with my wife.
But I am happy for you and Crash to have at it. You guys have fun.
And Janet, do you ever say God Bless America, Land that I Love? Just wondering……
And Janet, if you reply to this, please forgive me if I ignore you forever. But I know your many avid readers will enjoy your reply!
I hope you have a nice life.
