I know Emma has seen it and I have my copy but have not yet watched it. My new goal is to watch it this weekend. I’ve heard it is good. No wonder ABC, CBS, and NBC wouldn’t air it……it’s the truth.

I remember back in 1988 when George H Bush accidentally said he’d had “sex” with Ronald Reagan (he was reaching for the word “success”). Should I take that at face value also?

Has anybody received a movie about radical Islam called ‘Obsession?’ I did. And boy is it an eye opener. I remember an Obama interview where he tripped up and said ‘my muslim faith, uh I mean my christian faith.’ Freud would be proud of that slip.

I would love to be able to post a copy of the movie for ALL to see, but I don’t have a clue about how to do that.

Obama wanted the Justice Department to look into a 527 because he did not like the ad they put out.

Obama asked his supporters to call a radio station in Chicago and demand they not run a show that was going to be critical of Obama.

Obama is thin skinned and will go after anyone who questions him or opposes him. That is not a leap, that is a fact.

You contradict yourself, BPCAYAMTYF. You say, “I’d like to see the wealthy put under pressure to create jobs for Americans rather than for Chinese, Indians, Mexicans, etc. so I’d like to see Obama elected rather than McCain,” yet you believe that “…Clinton did a great job of moving us towards financial solvency and of focusing our wealth towards our own growth and sustainment.” You are aware, are you not, that Clinton gave us NAFTA, which was the beginning of the end of US based manufacturing in many industries?

I agree that Bush isn’t conservative, nor is most of the legislation that the Republicans in Congress promote and vote aye on. I think it’s an obvious fallacy to think of the GOP as “Conservative”.

Like the Democratic party, they sell you one thing and deliver something else entirely, something less in your interests and in the interests of themselves and their cronies. In the GOP’s case we inevitably seem to get short shrift while capital flows to other countries.

I’d like to see the wealthy put under pressure to create jobs for Americans rather than for Chinese, Indians, Mexicans, etc. so I’d like to see Obama elected rather than McCain. I think it’s imperative, really. Under GOP economics the difference between our standards of living (tied to wages) and the rest of the world’s is allowed to erode in the name of “global competitiveness”. I’d like to see a focus in America on “America First”, as every other nation undertakes.

I disagree with you on the influence a President can have. I think that Clinton did a great job of moving us towards financial solvency and of focusing our wealth towards our own growth and sustainment. For details on how he went about doing it, I recommend “The Agenda” by Bob Woodward. Clinton forced his party down a responsible path.

Not true. Tell me exactly where Bush has gone after media outlets because they asked tough questions of Bush? Tell me where the Bush Administration has compared Nazi Germany to the United States? Tell me where Bush has supported terrorists?

Where has McCain done the same?

Under Obama, anyone who speaks out against him will be punished. He will have his media, meaning the Main Stream media go after people to discredit them. He will have law enforcement go after people who dare speak out against him. Where has McCain done that?

Last Thursday while walking to lunch on the corner of Market and East Bay, I passed what appeared to be a homeless man standing on the corner of Wentworth and East Bay holding a hand-made sign that read, “Vote Obama, I need the money.”, I laughed to myself and admired the man for his misplaced, albeit blatant honesty.

Once inside one of my favorite restaurants, I noticed that my waiter was wearing a bright blue ,“Obama 08” tie; again I laughed to myself as he boldly and proudly advertised his political preference for all the world, and his customers, to see — just imagine the odds of encountering two such 1st Amendment harbingers of change in less than 10-minutes.

When the check finally came I decided not to tip my waiter and explained to him that I was going to implement a practical application of Obama’s Redistribution of Wealth concept as my own personal socialistic experiment. He stood there in stoic disbelief as I explained to him that I was going to redistribute his rightfully earned $10 tip to someone who I deemed more in need…a homeless fellow standing a few blocks north in front of the Harris Teeter parking lot. The waiter stammered a few “Why practice on me? I’m just a local college student!” retorts and then angrily stormed away from the table in a steaming huff of progressive self-righteous indignation.
Apparently, after experiencing firsthand the application of such socialistic governance from the perspective of the rightful wage earner, my young liberal-minded waiter was quickly convinced that income redistribution was much easier to support as a noble, magnanimous social policy than when his own hard-earned income was about to be redistributed, against his will, to another I deemed more needy.

I went outside, walked back up to Wentworth, gave the homeless guy a $10 bill, and asked him to walk down to the restaurant on the corner and thank the waiter there who was wearing the “Obama 08” tie as I’ve decided he could use the money more than my waiter who had actually earned the $10. The homeless fellow smiled in grateful disbelief, tossed his sign in the hedge, and promptly bounded for the liquor store across the street.

At the end of this impromptu and rather unscientific income redistribution experiment I realized the homeless fellow was truly grateful for the money that he had not exerted any effort to earn, but my liberal-minded waiter was highly indignant that I would take from him and then give to another the honest wages that he had worked hard to earn even though the homeless recipient needed the money more.

As I walked back to my office, I began thinking about the heavy burden of corporate ownership and the endless frustration from beating my head against the wall of increasing bureaucracy year-after-year. I also thought of the majority of this year’s hard-earned profits that I had planned to reinvest in a few new employees, annual raises to reward loyalty and hard work, Christmas bonuses for extraordinary effort, and year-end corporate donations to the SC Aquarium, Coastal Conservation League, and the Historic Charleston Foundation.

After reconsidering my apparent politically incorrect capitalistic beliefs, the needs of my hard-working, albeit financially struggling, middle-class staff, and the six-figure salaries of the three non-profits’ directors sitting in the big stately, well-maintained buildings that each called home, I decided then and there to give every last penny of this year’s profit directly to Charleston’s Homeless Shelter, layoff all my staff, close our company, retire early, and depend upon the largesse of Obama’s promised Redistribution of Wealth for my every need!
In that brief instance, I too became a practicing socialist!

Welcome back! You have been sorely missed!

SOOO True!!!!

GW does not represent the Republican party’s interests - in fact - he is a moderate and not a conservative. I would say that he leans Democratic more than Republican. The Republican party recently released its platform and the Republican party is opposed to illegal immigration and amnesty. One person - GW Bush - does not represent the Republication party.

This is the problem with the election coming up - people are voting for Obama because they don’t like Bush and they equate Bush to the Republican Party. The Dems have been in control for the last two years and they have done nothing for two years. The only real powers a President has is to go to war, appoint justices to the SC, and veto bills.

Anyone who votes for Obama because they hate Bush is utterly illogical and just plain stupid. No offense intended, Rick My father falls into this category of completely illogical and just plain stupid because he hates Bush.

One person does not represent an entire organization…

This election is about the future of our country, our principles, what it means to be an American, the sovereignty of our nation, our personal freedoms, and who will be commander in chief.

Obama is not fit to be president. Furthermore, someone with radical, terrorist, Marxist, socialist, and racist pals should NEVER EVER EVER be in the White House.

Ahem … and the President during this … the one whose Justice Department successfully sued the City of Manassas to intimidate them into accepting illegal aliens as residents invested with special rights … the one who sits while Ramos and Compeon get beaten in jail for shooting a drug dealer who we rewarded … the one who created this climate of tolerance for illegal aliens, IMO intentionally … the one who went on the record for Amnesty in 2006 and 2007 and who worked for it behind the scenes … the one whose party speaks behind closed doors of the need to garner the Latino vote at the expense of sovereignty … is … George W freaking Bush.

Things CANNOT get worse in this area under Obama. At worst, if he engages in behavior we might consider that of a traitor, things would remain roughly the same as they have been under Bush and would be under McCain.
