Inhofe Rips Obama As ‘Un-American,’ Suggests He’s On The Side Of Terrorists
Inhofe Rips Obama As ‘Un-American,’ Suggests He’s On The Side Of Terrorists
Reacting to President Obama’s outreach to the Muslim world yesterday, Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) decried the president’s speech as “un-American” and even suggested Obama might be on the side of terrorists:
Sen. Jim Inhofe said today that President Barack Obama’s speech in Cairo was “un-American” because he referred to the war in Iraq as “a war of choice” and didn’t criticize Iran for developing a nuclear program.
Inhofe, R-Tulsa, also criticized the president for suggesting that torture was conducted at the military prison in Guantanamo, saying, “There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
Unsurprisingly, actual Iraqis and Iranians — a couple of the key audiences for Obama’s speech — viewed it far more favorably than Inhofe. Iraqi government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said the speech reflected greater understanding of Mideast culture and “reduces the chance of growth of extremist ideas that are trying to tarnish the image of Islam in the world.” “Obama’s speech was extraordinary. I loved it,” said 24-year old Iranian Morteza Sinaie. “I wish every Iranian would hear it. I think it would dramatically change their opinion about Obama and the United Sates.”
Reporting from Iraq, NPR correspondent JJ Sutherland noted one family said they wished Obama’s words “to be real. We wish what he’s saying to be real.” Reporting from Iran, Christian Science Monitor’s Scott Peterson wrote, “Mr. Obama’s pledge that America was ‘ready to move forward’ with ‘courage, rectitude, and resolve’ will be welcome in Tehran.”
One of the important goals of Obama’s speech was to stop creating an “us versus them” mentality with the Muslim world, the very approach that Inhofe is still espousing. In his speech, Obama tried to end language that suggests the Muslim world and the U.S. are on competing sides:
I have come here to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world; one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect; and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive, and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles — principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.
The Wall Street Journal reports, “Muslims in the Middle East and beyond praised U.S. President Barack Obama for the tone of his speech Thursday.” Al-Jazeera, the Arab world’s leading satellite channel, celebrated the speech as “an attempt at forging a new relationship between Washington and the Muslim world.” If the Muslim world is on America’s side, whose side is Inhofe on?

Little Jimmy has been taking debate lessons from Bimbo Bachmann. What a total imbecile. I sure hope the folks in Oklahoma wake up and retire this idiot the next time he’s up for re-election.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:52 amDoes this stuff play well at home in Oklahoma? Inhofe is one of the dumbest shits in Congress.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:54 amInhofe is a buffoon he needs pointy shoes and dress in motley to be taken seriously
June 5th, 2009 at 9:54 amWhat a jackass!From his photo,he looks like he needs to get his blood pressure checked!All that religion and negativity to everything not Bush, probably keeps it up around 240/150
June 5th, 2009 at 9:55 amThe unreasonable hatred for Obama by some of our right wing politicians is unacceptable. I think of the outrage expressed by them when anyone dared breathe a word of criticism for George Bush and compare that to the impunity with which they disrespect the current president, who is mightily attempting to put America back on the right track.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:56 am“There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
Yet another reason that we must investigate the probably war crimes at Gitmo.
Until then, you know it happened, I know it happened, but as it hasn’t been documented, we get get away with dumb statements like this.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:56 amWow, I thought they’d given up that crap after Obama won the election. Trying to argue that the POTUS is on the side of America’s enemies is… nonsensical.
And all this “he didn’t say that word” and “he didn’t talk about this” criticism is ridiculous. He’d have to talk for 36 hours straight to please every avenue of attack you could come up with.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:56 amSo it’s OK with Imhotep that the Muslim world hates the US?
June 5th, 2009 at 9:56 amYeah, well what should we expect from a Publican exemplifiying the reichwing.
Can I take it that the total number of Americans (according to Inhofe) are only those who have passed his purity test ?
Perhaps a dozen or so ?
June 5th, 2009 at 9:56 amSen., is that before or after the destruction of all those video tapes?
June 5th, 2009 at 9:57 amInhofe, R-Tulsa, also criticized the president for suggesting that torture was conducted at the military prison in Guantanamo, saying, “There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
Yeah, they did a great job of destroying all that evidence.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:58 amCrucking Fiminals.
I think Inhofe’s idea of being “American” is to torture, threaten to bomb anybody we don’t like, insist that we DO in fact run the whole d*mn world, consider anybody who isn’t American as unimportant (particularly if they’re scary brown people), regard all the world’s oil as ours, and consider concepts like diplomacy and cooperation as solely for un-American wusses.
That’s not my idea of being “American”. Fortunately, it’s not President Obama’s idea, either.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:58 amThe Iraq war was a war of choice. A bad choice at that.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:58 amObama is doing exactly what Bush failed to do that is bring diplomacy to the region and for the US.
Inhofe another Christian Fundamentalist Terrorist.

These idiots need to hear from the people that their hateful, inflammatory BS is unacceptable.
Seriously, we laugh about the ridiculous stuff coming out of these people’s mouth, but there are lots of idiots out there (like our resident trolls) who eat this stuff up like cotton candy. We need to call them on every irresponsible comment, every lie, and every bit of hate and bigotry they spew.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:01 am“There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
____________________________________________________________
Because he doesn’t consider waterboarding to be torture, unless we’re talking about Japanese, North Korean, or North Vietnamese doing it to us. He considers anything we do at Guantanamo to be “not torture”, but anything done to us he considers “torture”.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:01 amI get it. He’s not pissed that we engaged in a war of choice. He’s pissed because it was finally said aloud that we engaged in a war of choice. Wing nuttery in all of its glory.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:08 amOnce again the Reich Wing American Taliban rears it`s ugly head and Imhofe calls our president UN-American………What the Shrubs Admin. did in 8 years to destroy our country`s reputation Obama is restoring it in months, that`s what has the Reich up in arms about. In the meantime Obama has his hands full back here and has accomplished more in less than 6 months for this country than the Shrub did in 8 years of destruction.The Party of Nope will keep urging Former Sen. Coleman to keep up his appeal for the sake of the PARTY because they don`t care about the country and it`s downward spiral.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:09 amHe just hates the word choice.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:10 amPerhaps he can join up with a-hole Perry and secede together. They could call their new country Dumfukistan.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:13 am‘Peace Be Upon You’
An inbred jackoff like Inhofe can’t begin to grasp the power of that statement.
President Obama stated it in Arabic, (I believe…Toasterhead?), and he had the entire audience’s respect immediately.
Bush would have stated, (in english), ‘Fighting Terrorists is hard work’.
What a difference an election makes!
President Obama just made, perhaps, one of the greatest speeches in history. He spoke truth, equality and justice while reviling religious extremism, regardless of creed.
Nostradamus spoke of ‘the golden one’ bringing our Planet 500 years of peace. Think about that.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:15 amTHE RED CROSS DOCUMENTED TORTURE AT GITMO.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:18 amTHE GOP IS THE DEATH OF AMERICA!!!
June 5th, 2009 at 10:19 amIsnt Inhofe paying attention? Dick Cheney said there were no ties between 911 and Iraq which means Iraq was a war of choice. So why is Inhofe, by way of his logic, calling Dick un-American?
June 5th, 2009 at 10:21 amIf President Obama is on the side of the terrorists, and the majority of Americans voted for Obama, does that mean that the majority of Americans side with terrorists? Or did Inhofe miss the class on the transitive property?
This from the party self-labeled as “insurgent”.
PEACE
June 5th, 2009 at 10:22 amInhofe, “There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
Oh? Really?
FBI files detail Guantánamo torture tactics
June 5th, 2009 at 10:23 amSen. Jim Inhofe sure has his panties in a wad.
Whaaa! Whaaa! Whaaa! Obama is a real leader of courage and we’re not! Whaaaaaa!
Oh. And DNHF?
We don’t call for or condone ANYONE to be killed. Disagree with the GOP on policy and tactics all day. Chide their so called leaders at will but
Don’t Call For Anyone To Be Killed. Stop it!! You should be flagged and investigated.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:23 amWhen the rethuglicans said you are with us or you are against us, they meant it. They expect everyone to defend their war of choice and them against the crimes they have committed. Inhofe is one of the dumbest sobs on earth, much less the Senate.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:24 amClearly the GOP and the conservatives are the terrorist and enemy combatant here in the US along with Daniel James Murray, I assume it will be unsafe to put Daniel James Murray in a U.S. prison when they catch him?
June 5th, 2009 at 10:26 amSen. Inhofe, (R-Not OK), needs to check into an alcohol rehab program.
Look at his eyes & complexion. This is a sick man, metabolically and spiritually.
It’s time we started drug testing Congresscritters.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:27 amDNFP Says:
“SAVE AMERICA FROM THE TRAITOROUS GOP TERRORISTS.
KILL THE GOP.”
DNFP, you admonished me on the ThinkFast thread for comparing Daniel James Murray to our perrenial trolls, stating the seriousness of the matter. Your last few posts calling for the murder of memebers of the GOP could be construed as on a par with Murrays actions. So far he has done nothing but state the intention of causing President Obama’s death. Not to belittle his threat, it truly sounds serious and I am confident that he will be tracked down before the President’s return to the US but so far his only weapon has been his words. You are doing the same thing, don’t you see? My anger at the current make-up of the Republican Party, their hypocracy, crimes, obfuscation and inciting of anger towards our President is obvious through my posts here, but calling for the blanket murdering of all GOPers is not constructive. Unless your goal is a visit from the Secret Service of course, in which case carry on with the death threats. Stooping to their level belittles your message.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:28 amDNFP: IF YOU CAN’T SUPPORT THE STANDING POTUS, YOU’RE A G*DDAMN TRAITOR, AND INCITING OTHERS TO VIOLENCE IS A CRIMINAL ACT.
KILL THE UN-AMERICAN GOP BEFORE THEY KILL YOU.
The first sentence is inappropriate, since few of us supported Bush for his 8 years in office. Being in opposition is not the same as being a traitor. Inhofe carries his opposition to extreme, no doubt about it and he angers me no end. But your second sentence: “Inciting others to violence is a criminal act” IS an accurate statement, so I would suggest you not end your comment with “KILL THE UN-AMERICAN GOP BEFORE THEY KILL YOU.” Frankly, you put yourself at risk as well as make TP a target of the far-right with accusations of being a “far-left hate and smear site, as O’Reilly so frequently does.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:29 amFrom article linked
She of course means Iran. But change “brutalize their own citizens” with “brutalize a people denied of citizenship and basic human rights” and that regime sounds a lot like Israel
June 5th, 2009 at 10:31 amDid it have to take Bam to bring out the best or worst of people?
June 5th, 2009 at 10:34 amDNFP Says:
Gonna have to flag you. Calling out a death threat or for someone to be killed is wrong, whether you are on the left or right. Your posts make you as bad as the people calling out for Obama or abortion doctors to be killed. Two wrongs never make a right.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:34 amTo add to my prviuos points on #19, I would like to say that most of us in this country the 98 percenters(middle class Americans) are not falling for Mr.Imhofes fear mongering about his views of Islam, just like Christians and Jews, Islam has a few bad apples and this guys views are of that all Muslims are terrorist, which of course is not true.Us of the 98 percent are tired of the racsism, bigotry and hatred coming from the Reich Wing American Taliban, so please let this $hit go and get together with the progressives and Obama to turn this country around and stop putting your Party before the country because thats un-American in my view.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:35 amActually, Inhofe, it is you members of the Republic Fascist Party that are UnAmerican, you supported torture, you supported illegal spying, you supported a illegal, immoral war, you favor corporations over citizens for contributions, you denign global warming, you and your party and the voters who vote for them are scum, UnAmerican scum sucking pigs.
Fcuk the Republic Fascist Party
June 5th, 2009 at 10:36 amWhy does the US need a Republican party?
June 5th, 2009 at 10:40 amWhy does the US need a Republican party?
to consistently remind us on how not to do things.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:43 amYa guys, please stop with the over-the-top rhetoric condoning violence. Hate will consume you like it does them. Senator Implode and his buddys will destroy themselves.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:43 amI think DNFP may have been name-jacked by Archie – again. DNFP doesn’t usually call for people to be killed.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:44 am“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:45 amWell, we know who’s side you’re on…the rich old white racist, er… I mean the GOP.
Look:
FOUR of them in a row with different names? Clearly namejackers at work.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:46 amI appreciate that TP usually links to the person’s actual words so we can read them in complete context. The link above only links to an article that quotes the Senator. Could TP send a link to the actual interview? I’d love to read the whole–crazy rant.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:46 amI think DNFP has been hijacked as well. Just a different approach to trolling – DNFP – whoever you are, you’ve been flagged
June 5th, 2009 at 10:46 amIt’s the caps lock yelling that marks the troll.

June 5th, 2009 at 10:53 amI’m no troll I promise you that. Are you a troll
June 5th, 2009 at 10:53 amWhat’s funny is, the trolls think that when they namejack, they are blocking the user name by us flagging it. They don’t realize that all they are doing is blocking their own IP address.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:54 amYes, the real DNFP may have trouble with his user name next time he logs in, but all he has to do is change it, as his IP will still be OK.
Poor little trolls… so stupid.
I have been namejacked before
June 5th, 2009 at 10:54 amWell, this is interesting. Apparently the lunatic fringers aren’t satisfied with getting people they hate killed. Now they are actually posting hate sh*t about people they like, in the hopes, I guess, that one of them will be killed and then they can say, See! You guys incite violence too!
I mean, that is just beyond sick.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:56 amThis comming from someone who has made public statements that global warming is due to god. Oklahoma needs to reevaluate it’s ideals for their politicians.

Wanna have a test? Zooey, are you around? She knows some facts about me we can use as a litmus. I doubt VERY much that youknow this stuff. The real posters (not you namejacking dweebs) will trust her much more than you.
I am off to the shower, I need one after talking to you.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:57 amThe question is why don’t we see any Democratic leaders on television pointing out the lies and pointing out how these guys are inciting violence.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:57 amInhofe is so 2003. Maybe he didn’t get the memo on 11/4/08 that this crap doesn’t play for the American people anymore. Oklahoman’s need to do the right thing when this guy up for re-election.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:57 amActually, not supporting our President is un-American.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:58 amIn the Senator’s mind this may be true. In the minds of the millions that voted for and believe in the President, we know which side he’s on. And we are grateful.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:58 amDid Inhofe even consider that Muslim extremist even praised Obama’s speech? I fee a lot safer under Obama than I would a GOP.
SKdeAnt sounds to me like your a troll?
June 5th, 2009 at 11:01 am“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
The vast majority of American people voted for President Obama. Who’s side are you on, Mr. Inhofe?
June 5th, 2009 at 11:02 amDNFP
I asked 3 easy questions that you should be able to answer immediately.
Hello?

June 5th, 2009 at 11:04 amSKdeAnt point taken and I’m not a troll as well I worked on the Obama-Biden campaign here in NYC. I’ll say it again the GOP is the death of America.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:04 amWhat would Inhofe being for a living if he wasn’t in the Senate,any idea’s?
June 5th, 2009 at 11:06 amranus69 Says:
obamawipe$ Says”. Meanwhile, to pay for this stimulus spending that didn’t stimulate, Obama had to borrow so much money that long term interest rates have almost doubled since he took office, forcing postponement of abandonment of business expansion and hiring across the board.
=======
Let’s see you arsewipe was it Cheney that just said that he and Bush passed the buck on the auto industry and left for the the next President to handle and Bush just shoved them billions of dollars .
And if it wasn’t for the Bush’s Torture Adminastration, America would not be in such a bad predicament.
Stop watching Fixed News your getting the Liz and “Evil” Cheney syndrome.

Great point. More Americans voted for President Obama than have ever voted for a a president before. When they call him un-American they call us all un-American.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:06 amIt’s statments like this that encourage violence from the reightwing base…it’s dangerous, especially coming from the mouth of someone, who should realize the influence they may have on those who aren’t wrapped too tight…maybe he does realize…

June 5th, 2009 at 11:10 am“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
Note to Sen. Imhotep:
He’s not on the side of YOUR American Taliban.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:10 amI think Inhofe is the type of guy rooting for the Rapture to come. Sucks for him when it comes because he’ll be the one left behind. HA HA HA!
June 5th, 2009 at 11:12 amInhofe is a blockhead. The Bush Administration’s own top official — Judge Susan Crawford, the convening authority at Guantanamo and perhaps the only person on the planet with actual ruling authority to declare whether or not torture has been committed in any particular case at Guantanamo – dismissed the case of Mohammed al-Qahtani specifically because he had been tortured, she said.
Judge Crawford spoke to Bob Woodward about that in this article:
June 5th, 2009 at 11:12 am
Calling the President un-American & suggesting he sides with terrorists. Inhofe, in addition to being a complete dolt, is the un-American one here, and a disgusting, hateful one at that.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:21 amGOP = Goofs on Parade
June 5th, 2009 at 11:24 amhyacinthgirl, thanks for Inhofe’s number I just called to complained about his statements and asked that he retract statements which I doubt he will but it sure felt good giving her a peice of my mind over his statements. I’m getting ready to call my Senator Schumer and ask him why isn’t he or any other Democrats denouncing such remarks.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:25 amTo paraphrase Groucho Marx, I wouldn’t want to belong to a club that would have Inhofe as a member. So, the “America” he refers to is neither the true America nor are its members true Americans. It is those people and values outside of his club, like President Obama, that retain the title American.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:28 amAfter all the horrible things that George Bush did to this government during his dictatorship, I don’t ever remember any Democratic politician calling him un-patriotic.
This party is so far off the rails, I don’t think it will ever get back on. A vast majority of Americans were not happy with governing by fear and threats. I’m sure they are very happy that President Obama is trying to mend fences.
BTW Inhofe, Iraq WAS a war of choice. They were no threat to this country.

Elizabeth Hasselback on the View was complaining because she said he didn’t say the word “democracy” once in his speech. That made it apparent she didn’t even listen to the speech because he said it multiple times. I didn’t get to see if the women on the View corrected her or not. I saw the cut on Countdown.

June 5th, 2009 at 11:43 amSkdeAnt, I’ll happy to vouch for you if Zooey’s not around. :D
But honestly, I don’t really think that some of the questionable comments are name-jacking. Although we tend to believe that we ‘know’ our regular commenters here, there are sometimes disagreements among us indicating that we all have some differences of opinion. And sometimes some of us give in to our anger and post words that they may not necessarily believe in their hearts. I hope that that’s the case in this instance.
Ranus69, hello fellow New Yorker–why are we still stuck with Chuck Schumer? He’s such a waste as a Senator!
June 5th, 2009 at 11:54 amFrom the Rude Pundit over on FB: wonder if anyone on the right actually read or listened to Obama’s speech in Cairo. Or did they just have the TV on mute as they created their own f+cked-up fantasy version?
June 5th, 2009 at 12:03 pmInhofe is really not the most brilliant bulb on the tree! Gee, what will he say when peace comes to the Middle East, Israeli and Palestinian are living side by side within peaceful borders, each their own sovereign state, Muslim, Jewish and Christian have moved away from the vicious stereotypes of one another, and respect each other? He’ll probably say it doesn’t exist and wave a white paper, supposedly a list of ’scientists” he never shows, that can confirm it!!!
June 5th, 2009 at 12:16 pmI guess Oklahoma is our very own Afghanistan. Extremism is the enemy of humanity, and we have it in spades here in America, especially in the center of the country.
June 5th, 2009 at 12:26 pmSen. Jim Inhofe said today that President Barack Obama’s speech in Cairo was “un-American” because he referred to the war in Iraq as “a war of choice” and didn’t criticize Iran for developing a nuclear program.
So basically he’s mad b/c president Obama simply told the truth. Didn’t Dick Cheney say the other day that there was NO CONNECTION between Sadam Hussein and 9/11? Or Iraq and 9/11? His daughter even had the audacity to suggest the whole thing was a liberal smear yesterday. I guess they think people are stupid.
June 5th, 2009 at 12:28 pmI didn’t think it was possible, but Inhoffe makes the Florida Legislature almost seem half-way senisble.
June 5th, 2009 at 12:46 pmAnd that ain’t no small feat.
Thank you Oklahomans for being dumber thatn Floridians.

Inhofe, don’t you remember in the 2008 elections where John McSame & Sarah Palien said he “Pals around with Terrorists”? We all know he does now, RIGHT?

Yes! More statements like this = more decrease in GNOP approval ratings.

(Where is Oklahoma?- Oh yeah, that’s where we relocated the surviving members of the Cherokee Nation after they were forced to march a thousand miles and then we decided that land looked pretty good too and we killed most of them.)
June 5th, 2009 at 1:10 pmNo Ranus69, I seem to have been mistaken, But your all-caps short blurb in the middle of the string by the namejackers fooled me.
I sure as hell am not a troll, and I agree, the GOP has to go – death to the party, not the individuals.
Have a nice day!
June 5th, 2009 at 1:14 pmoklahoma has alot of old people. alot of old people voted for inhofe this last election. Inhofe had plenty of money from big oil and the military industrial complex to smear a much younger opponent. when u own the media u can pretty much put who u want in power in places like oklahoma. i can guarantee u these industries weren’t going to let inhofe lose.

June 5th, 2009 at 2:02 pmEvery senator in office today will have to run for office no later than 2014.
Inhofe is some piece of work. What a nutjob..
“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
Senator Inhofe, I would guess that President Obama is on the side of reality… What side are YOU on..?
June 5th, 2009 at 2:07 pmSKdeAnt is the real deal — no doubt.
June 5th, 2009 at 2:23 pmShorter Inhofe: I’m SCARED!!!! OMG, OMG, OMG, I’m SO SCARED!

Oops…6 + 8 = 14
what was I thinking. I would be lying if I claimed typo error.
Any way, is the party of NO putting those out there with the most time before re elction for their mouth piece?
and it holds true for Baucus, chairman of the sen. finance co, also as he so outrageously takes money from the insurance co and will not allow single payer a seat at the table in front of all to see…. as he is not up for re election until ‘14, what does he care as he thinks most will forget about it.
June 5th, 2009 at 2:41 pmFor every crackpot who writes and says that everyone not drinking the Kool-Aid offered by the DNC and Obama is nuts there are another ten (10) of us who truly believe that the current situation is putting us in grave dange now and for years to come. If everyone would just reflect on their situation and the “freedom of speech” we enjoy and thne see how the New Gun Laws are coming to control our ability to defend ourselves and the new higher taxes on everything and the controlof the car makers by the Unions, we would all do an about face and ask for a recount from the general election of 2007. God Bless America and let’s all say prayer that our current peach will survive the next 18 months of all this socialist activity..

June 5th, 2009 at 2:58 pmThe republican party just doesn’t get it. I look forward to the day when all these Jesse Helms far right, rascist, white politicians die off. They are an embarrassment. They lose sleep every night knowing that an african american is the most powerful leader in the free world. GET OVER IT!! Thank God, the younger generation doesn’t carry all this rascist baggage. The demographics are rapidly changing and we aren’t buying into your fearmongering and scare tactics any longer. The republicans are so nervous, their presidential candidates have already started campaigning for the 2012 election. When in history has this ever happened. NEVER!! They need a 4 year jump to try to beat Obama. PATHETIC!! Some people hate for no other reason than the color of someone’s skin. I am glad that President Obama is slowly dismantling the republican party. It is fun watching them implode.
June 5th, 2009 at 2:58 pmWHOA!!! I had every intention of ranting in all-caps, but after reading the thread, I suppose I’ll step away from the caps-lock. I really do feel like screaming.
Aneewei, the GOP is NOT going to be the death of America. They had their chance and they certainly did a lot of damage, but we’ll fix it. Adults are in charge now. Inhofe apparently needs a basket hold.
June 5th, 2009 at 3:01 pmIf everyone would just reflect on their situation and the “freedom of speech” we enjoy and thne see how the New Gun Laws are coming to control our ability to defend ourselves and the new higher taxes on everything and the controlof the car makers by the Unions, we would all do an about face and ask for a recount from the general election of 2007.
There was a general election in ‘07? I guess only the wingsters knew about it. Go ahead and have your recount, but since it’s an imaginary election, don’t be too surprised at the results.
And the new gun laws are a right-wing fantasy – or delusion, I should say.
June 5th, 2009 at 3:02 pmIt is obvious to me that this stupid Okie and all the wingnuts and trolls are still pissed that we the people elected a black man to be their master for the next eight years until the GOP is completely extinct and out of business, like the Whigs.
June 5th, 2009 at 3:09 pmThere are only two categories of liberals: The Power Seekers and the Dupes. The Power Seekers understand perfectly well what they are doing, undermining and dividing America, and they do it for their narrow goal of short term gains of power. Almost all liberal leaders, whether elected officials, union leaders, civil rights gurus, professional feminist, some political columnist or college professors etc., are in this category. The Dupes are a little different. They have a child’s political philosophy. They are the true believers, who believe in the face of all evidence to the contrary, that liberalism improves peoples lives. They can be divided into two sub-categories, the Ignorant and the Whackos (radicals). Not many Power Seekers on this thread.

No matter how the liberals cry otherwise, government is the ONLY entity which can restrict your freedom and liberty. This is the one entity that leftists want to empower. Moronic.

Yet banning gay marriage is perfectly fine with you and your cries of personal liberty. Face it, if it weren’t for conservative government, who would tell you who was the bad guy so you could go to bed resting easy knowing that you’re a good person and they’re not?
June 5th, 2009 at 3:57 pmI had no doubt that a narrow minded conservative would say something like this. To them, there is no solution unless it involves the “Mighty Military”. Then of course the best the right can do is start wars with countries that really cannot defend itself. As far as no torture goes, its time for an international tribunal
June 5th, 2009 at 4:04 pmLiberals will say “conservatives just don’t get it” based not on logical thought, but on this unrealistic liberal ideal of how the world should be. Unfortunately modern liberals have lost independence, respect for other people’s beliefs, and a basis in logic and reason, and now are no better to debate with than religious conservatives on the topic of god.
Liberals feel there is no objective truth, just different opinions, and they are all morally equivalent. Childish

Is this why conservatives cannot feel safe until the government bans gay marriage because they don’t WANT TO CATCH TEH GAY? Is this why conservatives seem to feel safe as long as there is an oppressed and marginalized group that they can victimize? How do you as a principled conservative reconcile your attempts to get government into our bedrooms and women’s wombs?

June 5th, 2009 at 4:22 pmI can’t believe people that make statements like Inhofe can be expected to be taken seriously, let alone get elected or re-elected. Obama is very smart and I think it frustrates his detractors to no end. Prez. Obama refuses to sink to their juvenile level and it drives the republicans nuts. When I read statements like inhofe’s I just want to vomit(all over him).
June 5th, 2009 at 4:22 pmThis is treasonous in nature. Period.

June 5th, 2009 at 5:17 pmLiberalism is tribalist in nature, a herd mentality, always organising or rallying around the latest cause du jour.
June 5th, 2009 at 6:09 pmThe problem most people have in addressing liberalism is that they keep thinking of it as being about politics. It really isn’t. Liberalism is like a religion. It is “faith based” with the religion being idealistic utopia. The idea that it’s possible to have a world without war, crime, poverty, and injustice is the vision. The ideas of a brotherhood of man, heaven on earth, and human perfection are too beautiful to perish as ideas, even if they’re too utopian to succeed in reality.”
Inhofe really ‘hates his country’ doesn’t he?

What else doesn’t he know?

June 5th, 2009 at 6:47 pmI am so glad I did not vote for Inhofe at re-election time, those statements are not my way of thinking. It’s actually an embarrassment. Okay fellow Oklahomans, don’t you think its time we give Mr Inhofe the boot? Not only does he owe President Obama an apology but to the people of Oklahoma as well.
June 5th, 2009 at 6:48 pmI am very glad to see so many notes of respect and agreement for our President. Our Nation has gone through many horrors during the past 8 years and to villify anyone who is trying to ameliorate this condition seems to me to be scraping the bottom of the muck barrel they live in. If they are Christians, let them follow the words of the Christ they claim instead of the words of the failed GOP.
My first vote for a US President was for Harry Truman. I have since seen too much destruction and greed in our political structure. I have feared that the American Dream of fairness and equality would be destroyed by this. I now have hope that the American citizens will recognize that “capitalism” is a monetary/financial structure term and NOT a synonym for Democracy. I have hope that “lassez faire” will be recognized as a dreadful, near criminal distortion of capitalism and that the “corporatism” which has evolved from that will be recognized for what it is.. Fascism.
June 5th, 2009 at 6:50 pmI’d like to see President Obama address Congress, in Congress, and invite Inhofe to stand up and say this to his face. Enough already!
June 5th, 2009 at 7:00 pmdabadass says that “Liberals believe there is no objective truth.” In order to make a judgment or to read the mind of any one “liberal” s/he would have to be a ‘Liberal.” The tone of his comment says otherwise.
We DO have an objective truth. Our objective IS “Truth.” No subterfuge, no duplicity. Yes, we do miss a lot of times, but generally our votes are meant to further the ideals of the “US Constitution” and the “Declaration of Independence”. We do not substute the word “license” for Freedom and we do not substute the word “Capitalism” for Democracy. Believe it or not, we do know who Adam Smith REALLY was and what he REALLY said. Yes, we are idealists. Without ideals (goals) we will never accomplish a truly free Nation
June 5th, 2009 at 7:06 pmIs this really a representative sample of “thinking” on the left? Seems to be a lot of hating and name calling. I’m disappointed. Also seems to be a confusion between religion and economics. There are obviously some strange acts under the GOP tent. When will the left acknowledge their big tent holds it’s share of clowns. New at this so unsure if my comments make me a troll.
June 5th, 2009 at 7:16 pmDid think defining moment had something to say though
June 5th, 2009 at 7:18 pmUnfortunately, contrition is not viewed as favorably in most Islamic cultures as it is in the west. Instead, it is often viewed as weakness, or as an opportunity to score an advantage. No matter how many opinions you might cherry pick from favorably disposed individuals in Iran and Iraq, the fact remains that the majority of the Muslim street (who believe in American-Jewish cabals, etc.) is laughing at the United States on account of this speech. Inhofe is completely right.
June 5th, 2009 at 7:39 pmHave we forgotten the feverish celebrations in Ramallah and Tehran when the twin towers fell? That was 9/11/01 when the Muslim world had only mostly known an America under the Clinton administration, and had never been subjected to any invasion from the US.
What did the alien in Independence Day say to Bill Pullman character, the President, when he asked him what they wanted? He said “DIE!!!!” That’s what we face. Ahmedinijad is right. The Muslim world hates us, purely and simply.
June 5th, 2009 at 7:44 pmPeople forget that on 9/11 there was more than just an attack from some extremists terrorists, there was jubilation across the Middle East. It was a cause of celebration that the benign power that was the United States was made low in their eyes, and these are they people Obama seeks now to appease.
June 5th, 2009 at 7:52 pmInhofe needs to get his own life and family life in order before he throws stones son is on drugs and maybe he is to!!!
June 5th, 2009 at 7:55 pmDelivering his speech in Cairo, the capital of the authoritarian and repressive Mubarak regime? After coming off of a visit with the despotic Saudi autocrat? I can think of far less ironic venues for delivering a message of hope, change, and contrition to the Muslim street.
June 5th, 2009 at 8:00 pmInstead of demonstrating your superior intelligence by name calling, why don’t you tell us what was pro-American about the Anoited One’s speech. After all, he is President of the U.S. right? Doesn’t that mean that he would stand up for the U.S. once in a while? The focus of almost every “brilliant” speech is how America is wrong and anyone who doesn’t like us is alright, willingly ignoring the times American has helped Moslem nations.
Obama’s platitudes to the Moslem world won’t change anything, Moslem’s have made it abundantly clear that they will HATE us until we openly turn against Israel (and that day seems to be approaching fast). Israel has never harmed this nation, but I do remember two planes flown by Moslem’s crashing into the World Trade Towers.
In Genesis, God makes a pact with Israel that he will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel. Even liberals who hate this country can’t deny that the past 60 years in the U.S. have been blessed. I hope Obama is actually telling the truth when he says that our bond with Israel is unbreakable.
June 5th, 2009 at 8:00 pmI remember well that, on 9/12/01, there was jubilation across the Muslim world. Candy was distributed to ecstatic, hopping crowds on the streets of Ramallah. Goat meat was roasted and shared among strangers in Ashkelon. Guns were fired into the air amid cries of Allahu Ackbar in Gaza. And these are the people to whom Obama is apologizing?
June 5th, 2009 at 8:11 pm“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

Instead of demonstrating what a MORON you are. TEll us why you call Obama the anointed one? Oh yeah. Rush TOLD you to think that. Muslims have done no such thing. The largest Islamic country in the world Indonesia has long been a US ally. So has Jordan and Egypt. Now they might not be as democratic as we would like but they hardly hate us. Rather they probably do hate morons like YOU that are racist and brainwashed and think all of Islam is represented by al Queda. Look you are a moron we all get that.

The hate coming from the left is scary…..You really love the GOP don’t you???? Obama needs to remind the world why most of them don’t speak German…You all are in left field.
June 5th, 2009 at 8:44 pmOK, I just joined this thread and find some things fairly disturbing. I would consider myself a liberal in most cases, but why does everyone have to be so black & white??? I can’t say I have enjoyed reading any of it! I don’t really see how all this name-calling can bring ANY good to ANYthing. If you want to make a point, make it with respect and dignity like our great President does. Don’t stoop to the levels of Inhofe and other GOP supporters! It really does just give them more fodder for their one-sided “Talk” and “News” programs. You don’t change someone’s mind by calling them a moron. And if their mind won’t be changed, don’t turn off another that might be changed by sounding extreme and just as stubborn. I don’t think at this point I will leave any of my own opinions other than I do agree Inhofe has just shot himself in the foot and Obama will be the best president we have had in ages (maybe ever, we’ll have to see) and I’ll hope that the next time I join a thread, the comments will be more reasonable so I can actually have an educational and inpiring chat.
June 5th, 2009 at 8:45 pmObama is a 47 year old clueless man child. He reminds me of a kid with a new Harley riding thru the Sonic, reving the pipes, showing off, except his Harley is AirForce 1. His positive accomplishments are exactly Zero
June 5th, 2009 at 8:45 pmWhile I am a conservative, I do not agree with Inhofe’s comment eluding to the President siding with the terrorists but I do have a problem with Obama apologizing for all that Americans have done. We have come to the rescue of so many (a thankless job no less) that many other countries have declined to do. I do think that Obama is making us look weak to other countries and do agree with the few others on here that the Muslim extremists are laughing at us right now because they are seeing us crumble for the first time…we are probably more divided now than we ever were. While I would like to see a positive relationship with Muslim countries, I don’t think the way that Obama is doing it is the most effective because again, it makes us look week. Why not appeal to them without apologizing? I have yet to hear an apology from the terrorists of 9/11 and we will never will? I would love to hear one for the massive losses of loved ones here.
For those that are so negative of the GOP, we need two parties in this country to check on the powers of the President. Otherwise, we are creating a government with no opinions…a single party state….NOT the way to go. We made George Bush accountable for what he has done…why can’t we do the same with Obama because the man is not perfect.

When I called his office today, I spoke with his assistant named Greg and gave him an ear full and my main question to him was why aren’t the Democrats more vocally opposed to GOP attacks? Again, I doubt that I will get an answer but I think it’s time for some new younger people to rise like Senator Gillibrand. I miss Hillary though.

A reasonable post. Yes we have done much good. No question and we HAVE done bad things. Like overthrowing the first Democracy in Iran and installing the brutal dictator Shah Pahlavi. The fact we have done good things doesnt make us exempt from criticism for doing BAD things. It doesnt give us a free pass from responsibility FOR doing bad things and they NEED to be addressed. Decent people even when they are very good people appologize and make efforts not to repeat the BAD things they inevitably do. Dont blur the distinction between who we are and what we sometimes do. Countries like people are not one thing. We do good we do bad. WE need to continue to do the good things and stop doing the bad things and make amends for them THAT is what a good people do THAT is how a good people act. Let me go again to St Thomas Aquinas
Three conditions are necessary for Penance: contrition, which is sorrow for sin, together with a purpose of amendment; confession of sins without any omission; and satisfaction by means of good works.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:12 pmall I have to say is 01/20/12, the day the GOP takes it back….remember the last 2 term dem president before Clinton? was……………FDR……Pelosi and Reid will ruin your dreams for the Savior to win again….Don’t give up GOP faithful, the hateful left alway’s show there true motives….Gun Control anyone? How about more taxes?? Sound familiar?? Please I’m waiting for the attacks now, for I am only stating facts..Oh I forgot, you can never disagree with a Lib.

June 5th, 2009 at 9:18 pmWhere’s the Birth Certificate?
Your “Savior” is not only unfit to lead this country, HE IS NOT CONSTITUTIONALLY ELIGIBLE. ‘Only the release of his long-form birth certificate showing the hospital of his birth, attending physician and other details can conclusively meet that test. Obama’s presidential campaign released to select news organizations only what is known as a “certification of live birth,” a document obtainable in Hawaii in 1961 by Americans actually born outside the country.’ IF THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE, WHY IS YOUR “SAVIOR” REFUSING TO PROVIDE THAT DOCUMENT?
June 5th, 2009 at 9:33 pmThis is the same developmentally disabled senator (<-lower case, in his case) who once called scientific data supporting the existence of climate change “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated.” And yet somehow being honest about a really great hoax, the Iraq war, makes Obama “un-American.”
I guess we finally found the Okie even Steinbeck could dislike…
June 5th, 2009 at 9:37 pmI’m sorry, but is someone still thumping that birth certificate tub?
Really?
No seriously, really…

#196, maybe if you didn’t want to help support the unemployed you shouldn’t have voted for the idiots whose policies directly led to the economic meltdown that cost them their jobs.
And calling Obama Buckwheat doesn’t do sh!t to him. You, however, it makes looks like an ignorant redneck, but I suspect you’ve heard that many times before.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:50 pmMarshall Levi Says:
OH MY GOD. You are unimaginably stupid. I didnt think even a moron like YOU would fall for that idiocy. Do you at least have the decency to be ashamed of being so mindnumbingly stupid? His birth certificate has been authenticated. They have shown his birth anouncement at the TIME of his birth in the Honolulu newspaper. Doesnt it bother you that you are basically a chatty Cathy Doll? That the screechmonkeys that do your thinking for you program you and when your string is pulled you spew out the stupidest most embarassing idiocy imagniable? You really are pathetic.

nofreelunch Says:
Liberals feel there is no objective truth, just different opinions, and they are all morally equivalent.
Hey, quit telling me what I think.
Besides, we’re not the ones who constantly make public statements that are contrary to known fact, and think we can get away with it by preceding the B.S. with “I believe.” Faith-based economics. Faith-based foreign policy. Faith-based history. Faith-based military strategy. Faith-based financial regulation. Faith-based environmental policy. Faith-based educational policy. That wasn’t us. We aren’t the ones who are at war with reality, facts and the truth.

Bill the Lawyer Says:
And these are the people to whom Obama is apologizing?
No, they’re not, as he didn’t apologize to anyone. Who told you that he did? That person lied to you, to get your political support. Doesn’t that make you angry, being used like that?

Marshall Levi Says:
“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom…”
I was about to agree, but – wait, freedom? Money isn’t liberty. Are you sure you quoted that right? If so, it’s just plain crazy. That’s like saying you can’t tax the middle class into the right to bear arms.

Where’s the Birth Certificate?
HA HA HAAAA!!! I thought you guys gave up on that after the thorough documentary evidence and firsthand testimony, the release of the state copy, the testimony by the Hawaii Secretary of State, the time factcheck.org examined the original, and everything else!
Admit it, you’re just trying to get your own hands on the original so you can rip it up. We know better.
June 5th, 2009 at 9:58 pmEpic beatdown Bruce.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:02 pmObama is the same sh1t all over again. He’s going to fix america by borrowing more money that we can never pay back. leveraging our children and grandchildren so the gov. can gain more control and take away more of our freedoms. He’s the same thing we had just in a different package. He still has someones hand up his ass controlling his mouth.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:10 pmWet your damn bed…pig? These are the people that voted for Obama, you can’t have a differant opinion, they hate the truth, has the public seen the birth certifcate? Why not? Very simple thing to make public. As far as the stain that’s the GOP, that’s the stain from wiping up on a majority of the Presidential elections for the last 60 years, can you all add, or by all the namecalling, are you old enough?? Like I said before…01/20/2012..the day the GOP IS BACK IN POWER.

NOT SO:
June 5th, 2009 at 10:25 pmTwenty percent of Israeli citizens are Arabs. Every Palestinian who has not raised arms against Israel is entitled to become an Israeli citizen. In 1948, when Israel became a nation, its leaders pleaded with the Palestinians to remain and forge a country together. Most Palestinians left with the expectation of their brethren finishing what Hitler had started. They lost. Incidentally, Jews in Muslim countries are treated worse than Muslims in Israel.

You can keep getting stupider and stupider if you think it accomplishes anything. I mean I DO appreciate the laughs. The birth certificate thing is over it has been verified in every way imaginable if you want to see a copy of his CLB it is even on the web. If you think the GOP is going to take 40 seats in the house and 10 in the Senate AND the presidency then you are taking stupid to the level of an artform. Keep whining about us calling you names while you insult us its the punkass troll way. I know Rush TOLD you to think and repeat idiocy about leftist hate and namecalling and we all understand you are far too stupid to think for yourself.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:32 pmLeft or right, it’s all the same. We have a one party system and it’s never going to change because they have us looking in the wrong direction worrying about the blacks, the muslims, democrats and republicans. We have the republicat and thats it. As long as they keep everyone occupied with the “other” people then they can pretty much do what they want. And it’s dumbasses like you that allow it.

June 5th, 2009 at 10:42 pmCarter tried to negotiate with Iran for the release of embassy people which failed. Back in world war 2 anyone crossing embassy grounds was considered act of war. So, that ended up to be Carters demise in which regan(Rep) came into office and became president which resolved the Iran issue.(because they were afraid of what he would do) And was loved by both left and right. They have a statue that was just unveiled by Obama and his wife of what regan did for the united states.
So, tell me if the right is dead?
June 5th, 2009 at 10:42 pmMost school children are liberal in their views when they are growing up. Then many of us get a job in the real world and find out what we thought we knew wasn’t so. We found out that in America any individual, regardless of creed or color, had the opportunity to achieve their dream if they were willing to work hard and persevere. We found out that Govt. is usally the problem rather than the solution. We learned that unless we took risk, there was little reward. We learned that if we failed, learn from it and keep trying until you succeed. We have lived life as it is, not as we would like it to be, and now we are conservatives.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:44 pmwow, so insensitive. Heaven forbid you somehow lost a job and found hard times. you will really be complaining about that 9.4 percent, because now they will be laughing at you, joker. The other 90.6 percent will see what you wrote and wonder why they should support you. But we would anyways, thats who we are.
Just dumping our disabled/elderly/unemployed in an alley sure worked well for the average lifespans of the romans. Maybe if you read that old book of fairy tales you shove in our faces from the right all the time, you would learn something about how to treat your fellow person regardless of their disposition.
Now I will stand aside and let bruce and the rest of the people with half a brain (or just half a brain more than you have), tear your pitiful arguements to shreds.
June 5th, 2009 at 10:45 pmI see this is the home of the NBC clones who follow their anointed one (the anti-Christ; Obammy) like the lost flock of sheep they are. Believing what all crap the lesbians such as Rosie and Maddox spew because the normal people always thought of them as freaks. Liberals who see no reason to not allow the flocks of illegals that flow across our borders hourly and insist we embrace those that want us dead. Fools who believe we should turn over our 2nd Amendment right to bear arms that has keep us free all these years. Why does the Constitution scare you people so bad that you protect our enemies. I can’t believe some of you actually believe the majority of Americans voted for the anti-Christ. Obama and his crowd is destroying our economy. How you say, We the People now own GM but we can’t afford to buy a car. We have lost our retirement and jobs and the banks receive billions of our tax money that he is printing so fast the ink is still wet. In another year ya’ll will want to hang this guy.

When REAGAN had a hostage situation there were only about a dozen hostages. While CARTER got all 144 hostages released without giving Iran ANYTHING that wasnt theirs.

Don’t get me wrong, but what am I missing? Cheney/Bush came into office with a balanced budget, a surplus, a military in good standing and no major military commitments. Just look at the problems the Obama Administration has to deal with. A finical melt down, two unresolved wars, a depleted military and a government that was dysfunctional.
I will repeat a question of Reagans, “Are you better off now than you were 8 years ago? Think for a minute; who was in the Whitehouse, who controlled the congress, are you serious.
Reaganomics was a sham; we are seeing the final results.
Bush/Cheney had guts behind a desk, but neither would put their buts on the line when it counted.
From my perspective their behavior is treasonous and they need to be investigated! The Republican Party has forgotten what a democracy is; representative government!

June 5th, 2009 at 10:59 pmJ.F.K. was president and in charge and decided he would stop any communist aggression in the world. That was J.F.K.’s known objective. It didn’t have anything to do with Eisenhower. Eisenhower didn’t have anything to do with the bay of pigs.
GET A BOOK!
June 5th, 2009 at 11:00 pmEisenhower didnt have anything to do with the bay of pigs? My GOD you really dont know anything at ALL do you?
http://www.u-s-history.com/pages/h1765.html
The Bay of Pigs was not originally John F. Kennedy’s idea. As the communist nature of Fidel Castro’s regime became apparent, the urge to topple his government grew. Dwight D. Eisenhower’s administration planned the invasion, which would be handled by the CIA. By the time of Kennedy’s inauguration, the order to invade was the only remaining piece of the plan to put into place.
All Kennedy did was sign off on it. It was an Eisenhower operation all the way MORON. I do like the juxtaposition of your stupidity with your condescension. Telling ME to read a book because YOU dont know what you are talking about.

If the economies turning around why are the Feds going to raise gasoline taxes by 10-15 cents a gallon; because the Feds have no money to fund the highways even with their billions being spent. OH, that’s true, your group calls the tea-baggers racist because we don’t want the government so deeply involved in our lives or pocketbooks. Yes some of us are not like you, along for the FREE RIDE.

June 5th, 2009 at 11:10 pmThe republican party and the democrat party have the same problem. They are both controlled by power seekers, who don’t care about anything but their own power and position.

I am not all that worried about being protected because I am not a cowardly MORON like you. It is fun to laugh at morons like you.

June 5th, 2009 at 11:29 pmInhofe is one of those GOP representatives that claims to know what they are doing. But look at his comments, analise his comments and himself, your result will be “a GOP mess responsible for the wars, battered image and economic predicament our nation finds itself in today.” His inability to absord and analize Obama’s speech the way it was really intended is a cause for alarm and leaves much food for thought for other members of the GOP party who have not even dare to condemn him. People like this are not fit for public office. Well maybe Kennedy’s health bill must be hastened so that Inhofe could benefit for a mental checkup.I believe he has a big big and serious serious problem
June 5th, 2009 at 11:30 pmThere you go debit, repeating lies just like your master the anointed one. Don’t know where you get the Buckwheat comment but after reading your childish lesbian post I can see why your so pissed. I remember kids like you in college, when I received my degree after retirement. Same old brainwashed comments from someone who has never had to work/struggle to provide for a family. You and your liberal buddies need to wake up from the dream world you live in and take a good look at what the real world is about. These animals you say our fighting men and women mistreated live to chop off heads and kill anyone who does not believe as they do, in Allah!!

Exactly. I flagged the troll’s comment.

AND.. NAFTA did send the plants away that left a lot of people here jobless. The left don’t want to admit that do they?
June 5th, 2009 at 11:36 pmOK Obammy still racist BS. Look you are stupid. That isnt anyones fault but your own. You are a moron and you are a racist piece of garbage. Calling him the anointed one is another Limborg idiocy you have been programmed with. you should at least have the self awareness to be embarassed for being so stupid and brainwashed. I guess you can let Rush do your thinking for you if you want. Especially since you are too stupid to do your own but it is still pathetic. Thats you. You are pathetic. Of COURSE you fly the Rebel flag you are stupid and you are a racist. Fly the flag of Souther Treason it shows your true colors. If you want to go after Muslim extremists that is a great idea, lets just not pretend every Arab or every Muslim is our enemy because YOU are too stupid to tell the difference between them.

I am sorry to say you are getting even stupider. You DO know that your posts are RIGHT up there and can still be read dont you? You SAID it was CREATED by lefties you SAID that Eisenhower had NOTHING TO DO WITH IT so you are a LIAR when you say that you never said ‘things weren’t in the works when eisenhower was in place’ Ah yes you did. Stop lying it is especially stupid to lie when it is SO easy to SEE you are lying.
NAFTA was a disaster. It was however the LEFT that fought Clinton on it. Again you are delusional and brainwashed to claim the left wouldnt admit NAFTA was a mistake the LEFT was saying that all along. Step up your game dude. If all you are going to do is repeat this stupidity you have been brainwashed with, delusions easily proven wrong then LIE about what you said you are just going to turn into another pathetic troll. TRY for once thinking for yourself and find out for yourself if what you are about to say has at least at tenuous connection to the reality based universe.

June 5th, 2009 at 11:48 pmSo, Imhofe is the hater huh? He makes a few criticisms of Obama and, according to the majority of posts here, he is the epitome of hate and evil in the western hemisphere, second only to Atila the Hun. Take a look at yourselves, you pompous hypocrites. Only the Left can attain such lofty, soaring heights of bitter venom as appear on this board. NO ONE OR GROUP can create stinking rivers of gutblasting vocal vomit quite like the haters on the Left. I cannot see how you can even stand yourselves, but when you are surrounded by rot I suppose you can’t even notice the stench.

And… as for world war 2… It took the bombing of pearl harbor to finally get the left off their butts and do something. They wouldn’t do anything until then.
Prior to WWII, it was the right wing that was agitating for closer relations with Nazi Germany. Fascism always has been a right wing phenomenon, and right wingers have historically been close to fascist regimes everywhere. The 1930’s were a blatant example of this.
Consider the German American Bund:
Does that sound like “the left” to you?
But just in case that stake hasn’t been driven in deeply enough, here’s another interesting paper on the relationship between conservative U.S. industrialists and Nazi Germany.
Maybe the left didn’t want to do anything. Make love not war and all that. But the right wanted us to be buddy-buddy with Hitler, which would have been worse than nothing at all.

Most school children are liberal in their views when they are growing up. Then many of us get a job in the real world and find out what we thought we knew wasn’t so. We found out that in America any individual, regardless of creed or color, had the opportunity to achieve their dream if they were willing to work hard and persevere. We found out that Govt. is usally the problem rather than the solution. We learned that unless we took risk, there was little reward. We learned that if we failed, learn from it and keep trying until you succeed. We have lived life as it is, not as we would like it to be, and now we are conservatives.
Lots of people have little to no opportunity. We all work our asses off, and only some of us get anywhere, either through incredibly long-shot luck or having it handed to them on a silver platter; you’re blind to both the undertrodden and the undeserving. We have lots and lots and lots of problems that aren’t caused by government, as well as many that are; you only see half of that picture. I submit that you are still a child.

June 6th, 2009 at 12:15 amDid president Clinton give the military any equipment that could get the apachie helicopter off the ground? I worked with general dynamics and found out president Clinton killed the gov’t contract to build the props to get the helecoptors off the ground but still sent the helicoptors to Bosnia to save the country and save the U.S. money, but the helicopters had no props to fly. The company that built the props went out of business. So, what good are helicoptors without props. How was that? I wonder how much it cost to send prop less helicopters to Bosnia that were useless. Hundreds of thousands of dollars. So when Bush took office he had to fix all these problems. Bush had the props built.

Here’s just a handful of the fcuked-up problems inherited by Obama from Bush:
1. Iraq (being there at all)
2. Afghanistan (unresolved)
3. Osama Bin-Laden (still alive)
4. The financial industry (tanked)
5. The homeowner industry (tanked
6. The federal deficit (already spent to hell)
7. Guantanamo Bay (legal nightmare)
8. Abu Ghraib (still leaking horrors)
If it was just a matter of straightening out a little helicopter prop supply chain issue, Obama could have taken care of that within the first hour of taking the Oath of Office.

It is apples and oranges. I’d show considerably more decorum if I was on the radio or television. They have no excuse being as uncouth as the likes of us.
Just recently, one of your radio personalities was espousing beating and abusing any child who turns out to be gay. Now, it would be one thing for an anonymous person to post that in a website’s comments area. And I would argue vocieferously against that. It’s quite another thing to call for monstrous behavior on the air. There’s a certain measure of responsibility that they bear which we don’t. That responsibility increases the larger your audience is. And of course, elected officials should always consider the importance of the office they hold before making any inflammatory statements.
Getting back to topic, this is exactly the problem with Inhofe’s comments. That’s the sort of thing that goes over at freepers or newsbusters, but is flatly inappropriate coming from a Congressman. It’s important to understand the difference.
You don’t.

What does an act of rape have to do with political identity? Where is the logic? That was one of the most ridiculous non sequiturs I have ever read, and I have read thousands of them. As for torture, there is evidence that Pelosi kniew about the enhanced interrogations and said nothing. Ever wonder why she has been lying low lately? No one in the Bush administration has been charged with torture, let alone convicted. There is still plenty of disagreement as to what constitutes torture. So that makes 0 for 2 so far.

Some of them twice, and I can’t believe how vicious some of these comments are or how uneducated some of the “name calling” was. But I do have to admit I did laugh at some as well. I believe that after reading these comments that I have followed the best, true and only Savior. Why is it so hard to have your own beliefs or opinions without being so nasty about it. It does not make your opinion a fact. Sorry to be the one to tell you.

June 6th, 2009 at 1:46 amYou got that right. Many hope that these “conservative minds” will keep up their brilliant work. They are doing a great job,helping to give “the lib”s a majority in the House and Senate. There is also that place called the White House.
I stand here in awe of someone so divorced from reality.
June 6th, 2009 at 1:49 amWell gee, tender wittle boggle, maybe you’re in the wrong place, huh? It’s not like any of us regulars invited you is it? All you have to do is not make the effort to be here and you will be spared, right? A bunch of new people suddenly show up on TP and post on one thread, well what is that about? Huh?
Terrible guests. Apparently you didn’t read much here before you decided to start posting. I mean it’s not like you thought you might want to make yourself at home because you were attracted to the place, huh?
If you had studied the board, you might have noticed that there are a lot of regulars here. We’re very familiar with each other.
You just barge right in, don’t you. Complaining about the language, blah, blah, blah. As if this were your place, or something.

June 6th, 2009 at 1:53 amcecil91 Says:
What does an act of rape have to do with political identity? Where is the logic?
Here’s the logic:
Recent pictures from Abu Ghraib show that men, women and children were raped there. The “few bad apples” excuse provided by Cheney has been proven false, as all operating procedures were approved via a chain of command coming through the White House, to the DoJ, back to the White House, to the CIA (via Condi) and there directly to Abu Ghraib.
In fact, rape would not qualify as torture under the DoJ memos being cited by conservatives as providing legal cover for the White House to authorize the treatment, as it would not count as “pain equivalent to organ failure or death.”
Conservatives such as yourself are today excusing Bush, Cheney and everybody who worked for them, saying that what they did was justified under a variety of excuses. It turns out that what they did was conspiracy to commit rape… among other things that you don’t seem to care about. But I thought that one might get your attention.
.
cecil91 Says:
As for torture, there is evidence that Pelosi kniew about the enhanced interrogations and said nothing.
I have yet to see this evidence. All I’ve seen are people claiming there’s evidence. Kindly produce the evidence.
Actually, the fact is that under state secrecy rules, it is illegal to use any recording devices or even take notes during a classified intelligence briefing. Therefore, no such evidence could legally exist. So the best you’re going to get is a “he said / she said” situation. Sorry, that’s just not good enough.
.
cecil91 Says:
No one in the Bush administration has been charged with torture, let alone convicted.
“I haven’t been caught yet, so I must be innocent!” said the bank robber.
I’m only maintaining that it should be investigated. Unlike the Bush Administration, I do not seek to skip due process under the law.
.
cecil91 Says:
There is still plenty of disagreement as to what constitutes torture.
Thought experiment: let’s you and me hop in a time machine, go back to say, 2002 and have a chat with cecil91 of that era. If we described these acts, you would have said they were torture. Anybody would have. Right up until BushCo admitted to it, it was common knowledge that such techniques were barbaric and beneath the United States of America regardless of the circumstances.
In fact, I’d bet that the cecil91 of 2002 would b!tchslap the cecil91 of 2009 over exactly this point. Shep Smith’s got my back on it.
Let me give you a simple working definition of torture: if you’re doing something to someone so that they’ll cooperate just to make you stop, you’re torturing them. Here’s why that works. If it’s not torturing them, then it won’t work on them, and they won’t cooperate with you. If you’re doing something that will force them to cooperate, then it must be effective and therefore torture.
Apply this definition to waterboarding – if waterboarding isn’t torture, if it’s perfectly tolerable, if it’s just “splashing a little water on their face,” then it wouldn’t get a hardened terrorist to give up information. On the other hand, if it does get a hardened terrorist to give up information, then it must be so horrible that you have to call it torture.
.
cecil91 Says:
ANyway, there were lots of democrats who bought into the bad intelligence. Kerry, Kennedy, Hillary for openers.
There were lots of Americans who bought into the bad intelligence. But only the executive branch had the ability to look at the evidence underlying the CIA summary report. We were all fooled. Heck, when Powell pointed at that map and said that he had seen the evidence about WMD wagons, even I believed him. Does that make me complicit in the lie too?
.
cecil91 Says:
So the Bush administration wasn’t lying at all. They were fed bad intelligence like everyone else.
It was reported at the time that Cheney had lower-level CIA information (not vetted or analyzed) regarding anything damning on Iraq pipelined directly to his office past CIA analysts who could confirm the information. Many people in the CIA have gone on record as having been bullied and intimidated by the White House into “finding any dirt” on Saddam.
But here’s the interesting thing – if the CIA was so bad, why haven’t we done anything about it? If it was some people working in the CIA who screwed up so horribly, then why haven’t they been found out and fired? And here’s the kicker – why did Bush give George Tenet a Presidential Medal of Freedom after he knew that Tenet had delivered him the “bad intelligence” which led to the most colossal mistake a world leader has made in the modern age? Why would he do that if nobody had been fired and nothing had been done to reform the CIA?
Now, if I were a conspiracy theorist, I could easily explain Tenet getting a PMoF. But I’m not going to go quite that far. Rich white people are pretty good at talking in nudges and winks, after all.
Nevertheless, it wasn’t just “bad intelligence.” Don’t you think that on such a critical point of fact, Bush would have wanted to see more than just the summary page? Maybe he would have wanted to drill down a bit to make sure he was making the right decision. In fact, Powell stated explicitly that he had seen the evidence. He had not.
.
cecil91 Says:
If not, then where are the arrests and convictions?
Being blocked by the Republican propoganda machine. You are a part of it. You’re doing it right now. But again, just because nobody’s been arrested yet doesn’t mean that nobody should ever get arrested. That’s like a bank robber calling the cops and saying “I got away so that means you can never arrest me.”
.
cecil91 Says:
And finally, nobody lied so we could kill hundreds of thousands of people.
Just two weeks ago Dick Cheney was still saying that Saddam had ties to terrorism. Two weeks ago. Many years after it was proven false. How is he not lying?
Produce the WMD’s. Produce the evidence that Saddam (secular military dictator) would consort with religious terrorists (people who hate secular military dictators), much less give them weapons. Oh yeah, while you’re at it, produce some WMD’s.
We killed hundreds of thousands of people.
Why?

June 6th, 2009 at 2:00 amI live in Oklahoma and this guy is a moron. He is RABID! When the Murrah Building was bombed (by someone with a mindset identical to his), he was being interviewed by a local station in front of the building while they were still searching for survivors. He immediately went into a tirade where he tried to tie then-president Clinton directly to the bombing. The station, mercifully, cut his interview off. He is a fanatical hater of anything that involves free speech, multiculturalism, freedom of choice (on any issue unless the choices are limited to what the folks that pay him want you to be limited to). He is the best politician that money can buy. He has proudly proclaimed, while arguing for a bill on the senate floor, that he takes money from big oil and that, along with the ultra-fundementalist religious right are who he truly serves. He also champions anti-environmental causes for the larger agricultual (not the family farmer, the big corporate farms).
June 6th, 2009 at 2:05 amWe have tried to get him out of there but he gets alot of money from all his buddies. We had a young man run against him in the last election. He didn’t win but he fought him pretty even in the larger metropolitan areas but didn’t do well in the rural areas. There are alot of good people here but they don’t explore the candidates and Inhofe is an expert at utilizing the politics of fear and mixing that in with “religious issues” such as abortions, same-sex marraiges, etc. and uses the cash from the big business contributers to fund his campaign. Aside from a few pork projects and amendments to take care of his contributers he has done nothing for this state.
If you ever want to see what the country would look like if Bush-Cheney would have been able to do everything they wanted, just look at our state. We live in a virtual theocratic-oligarchy. The gop has taken both houses by a large, bullet-proof majority. They have passed limits on how much medical insurance companies can be sued for. They also helped them by allowing them to not have to cover certain conditions such as autism and other long term care conditions. And to make sure that it can’t be reversed, they placed a long impossible process that involves conducting long term economic impact and financial studies, along with having to present them to many different commitees, any of which can kill it. They have already done this. It is meant to discourage any action to undo what they have done here. Inhofe helped put these guys in power. We have a long way to go and the dems here don’t seem to have the balls to fight them effectively. So, with all that I would like to apologize for this idiot, but I won’t. I voted against him and will continue to help anyone that wants to oppose him and his goons. Sorry for any spelling or grammatical errors.

I’ll grant to cecil91 that everyone is innocent until proven guilty. But that doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be investigation. According to his argument, since everyone is innocent until proven guilty, we might as well get rid all police and prosecutors as being unnecessary.

I am all for peace if the muslims will accept it. But the islamic extremists saying they are a religon of peace to those who are at peace with them is bs. We were not messing with them prior to 9/11. As to calling waterboarding torture. Technically yes it is. But their lives are never in danger, and if they know of a pending attack on the usa I think it is justified. They can cut our citizens heads off and we are worried about pouring a little water on them??? The posts I am seeing on here explain why America is growing weak. Look at Rome. When it took the easy way out.It faded and fell to what? Barabarians who didnt follow the Romans idea of war at that time of history. They barbarians raped pillaged and murdered. And the Romans just kept playing fair. Sound like our geneva convention anyone? You have to play by the same rules your enemy wants or you will lose. Kind of like when the world gets mad at us for killing civilians when we bomb a terrorist training camp. Do I feel bad for the children there? Of course I do. But the terrorists brought them there knowing we might bomb it. They do this because they will stop at nothing to harm us. Including sacrificeng their innocent children. This country is on the downward slope. And not because of a african american president or a democratic congress. But because the american population has gotten soft. They kill THOUSANDS of civilians on 9/11 and we are worried about some water that only makess them THINK they are drowning? Personally? If we know a terrorist has information about an attack at my daughters school or daycare. I hope they cut his leg of if they have to to get the info to prevent it. Why should my daughter die because we are worried about hurting a terrorist that helped plan the attack to kill our loved ones?I want each and everyone of you to think about that. If your childs school was targeted, what would you be willing to do to that terrorist to save your child?

How many of the detainees that have died in custody were being waterboarded at the time?
If you’re thinking “zero,” I’d like to remind you that the people in charge of this have a proven pattern of lying about these things. On multiple occasions, they have told us that they weren’t doing things that it turned out they were doing. They have told us that “zero” instances have occurred of crimes, when it turned out that many instances occurred.
Of course, an independent investigation would be able to figure out the real number. But until it does, I think you might want to hold off on such absolute statements, lest you find yourself another one of the proven liars.

Has that ever happened? No. Even if it had, what you’re promoting is vigilantism.
What about torturing people who didn’t know about an attack on your daughter? Should those torturers be brought to justice?
Let’s make this real simple – if you want to live in a country where your safety is the government’s top priority, above any due process or law, then North Korea is the place for you. They’ll keep you perfectly safe from external enemies, and you can live in peace there.
But I love America for a reason. And because of that reason, I won’t allow you to warp it into a nightmare just so that you don’t have to live in fear any more.
The definition of “patriotism” is somebody who is willing to accept risk in order to uphold the ideals of their nation. You are no patriot. You are a coward. I will not allow you to subvert my country to serve your cowardice. Get out.
June 6th, 2009 at 4:14 amThis is my first time posting on here. I wanted to scream when I read some of these posts! I have read some extremely stupid posts on here and I’m from Arkansas so those are some pretty big shoes to fill. To the people farther up who suggested that only black people voted for Obama and all Democrats are homosexuals and on welfare, where do you get your information? I’m white, straight, and have never in my life been on welfare. As far as him being a ‘Savior’ or ‘The Anointed One’ I am a Democrat and I have never heard him called that before I read the posts from Republicans on here. Maybe YOU believe him to be a ‘Savior’ but I don’t. I see him as a MAN who was elected as President who actually seems to have his wits about him. I realize that intelligence can be a scary concept if it’s something you are not familiar with so I might just have to forgive you on that. And to come in here and the first thing you write is bashing liberals and then have the ball$ to be surprised when you get attacked back? I didn’t realize Republicans hold the monopoly on talking $hit. And saying that liberals are bigots and hate mongerers? WE elected a black president, Republicans came on here and refered to him as ‘Buckwheat’. So tell me again who the bigot is? I have nothing against gays. I have many gay friends and believe they should have the right to marry. Republicans came on here and made numerous digs at homosexuals. So who are the bigots and hate mongers? It’s usually the ones who rally the hardest against homosexuals that end up getting caught soliciting male prostitutes and then go to anti-gay bootcamp and come back ‘cured’ of their homosexuality. Obama didn’t apologize for anything and Rebublicans need to learn the difference between MUSLIMS and TERRORISTS. They are not one and the same. And lastly, yes waterboarding can cause serious damage like, I don’t know, DEATH. There is a reason why it’s also called dry drowning. Because you can drown without inhaling any water into your lungs. Suffocation basically. And if they don’t have oxygen they can also get brain damage as well as dementia. So would you really trust information gathered from someone possibly suffering from brain damage or dementia? Good strategy.

I believe that everyone has a right to their own opinion but they are stupid as hell them please keep them to yourself. Oh and Al Franken said it best when he said ‘Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot’. I would like to think that my fellow Americans would be smart enough not to buy into that…..a girl can dream, right?
June 6th, 2009 at 4:31 amThank you Inhofe! The comments on this subject clearly show that most commentators know nothing about Islam.
You cannot comment on Islam if you have never read the trilogy that is comprised of the Qur’an (prophecies received by Muhammad from the Angel Gabriel), Sira (biography of Muhammad) and Hadiths (traditions of Muhammad) and then reach your own conclusions about Islam. Islam is not a “religion” like Lutheran, Catholicism or any other mainstream religion in America. Instead, it is an ideology that contains a political system, culture and religion.
After you have read these three books if you still think that your president is on the right track, then I would respect your opinion. However, what is being said on this blog shows nothing but ignorance.
The trilogy that I mentioned is neither difficult to read nor very long but is very interesting!
June 6th, 2009 at 7:19 amInhoffe expressed that the the outrage at Abu Ghraib was much ado about nothing. He denies global warming. He thinks the Red Cross is a bunch of tree huggers.

With liberals, it’s always economics that determines character, when in reality it’s most often character that determines economics.
June 6th, 2009 at 10:17 amOne of the fundamental differences between liberals and conservatives, perhaps the most important one politically, is what they think (or how they feel) about the United States. Conservatives think the U.S. is a great country. Liberals feel it is a deeply flawed, but redeemable, country. Whackos feel it is hopelessly bad, and should be destroyed or remade.
June 6th, 2009 at 10:19 amnofreelunch Says
You’ve stumbled upon something here. I could be wrong but I’ll assume for the moment that you consider yourself a Christian. I’ll also assume that you have a Bible that you can read as opposed having around as a prop. The message of the New Testament is indeed that we are “flawed, but redeemable. I’m not Christian but I certainly agree with this principle when it comes to how I feel about our country. It’s very ironic that the “godless’ liberals are so close to the message of the New Testament and people like you are so far away. But then again, if you actually read the bible instead of thumping it,you’d know that Jesus never said it was going to be easy.
June 6th, 2009 at 11:38 amI’m a liberal and I also love this country, which is probably the reason why I get so angry when the government does f#cked up $hit. I believe we are better than that and should learn to practice what we preach a little bit better. But having said that there is no country that is or ever will be perfect. As times and laws and technology and public opinion changes, there will always be room for improvement and as long as we accept that and aspire to the greatness that our country is capable of without having to deny anyone basic human rights or torturing people then we are already on the right path. In order to keep our integrity as a country the government SHOULD be held accountable for what they do. During the Bush era they weren’t and look what happened. Could the Democrats have stepped up more and voiced their opinions more? Absolutely. Do I think it would have done a d@mn bit of good? Nope. If there has been anybody in history that has encouraged terrorist activity it is GEORGE W. BUSH and the tactics he used. If you were to compare the number of extremist terrorists pre-Bush against the amount during and after his reign of terror, I’d be willing to bet the farm that it’s several times higher so the terrorists owe Bush a big pat on the back for helping to realize the goals of all the propaganda the extremists were using to try to recruit more members. So well done to you.
June 6th, 2009 at 12:47 pmThe conservatives think it’s a great country for a selective few people to have the right to enjoy. If you are a old, rich, straight, white male you got it made in the shade. Everyone else is a plague and doesn’t deserve to have basic human rights as far as Republicans are concerned. It’s just too bad for the ‘GOP’ that the MORAL majority of America is NOT old, rich, white males. America is known as a melting pot for a reason and those reasons should be embraced. That’s the beauty of this country. You have such an eclectic mix of people. People should not all be exactly the same. If they were this country would be pretty d@mn boring. Besides who would the Republicans hate if everybody was just like them? It’s no secret that hate is the driving force behing their party.
June 6th, 2009 at 1:14 pmI tried calling Inhofe’s number this morning, but his mailbox is full. So I sent this email instead:
Sen. Inhofe:
Shame on you, sir, for your thoughtless, classless, untrue and vicious slander against President Obama. Calling him “un-American” and accusing him of siding with the terrorists is nothing more than hate speech, and I believe that you ought to be censured by your colleagues for such heinous slanders.
You sir, are an ignorant, racist, reality-denying BUFFOON, and if you had even a tiny shred of self-awareness and the dignity God gave a goat, you would resign your senate seat so someone who truly puts America and Americans first could serve this country in your place.
Shame on you. Shame on you.
In complete disgust,

Interesting. You hit the space bar and you end up with a question mark.
June 6th, 2009 at 5:07 pm1. In 1964, Oklahoma elected Fred Harris as Senator. Exactly when did Oklahomans lose their power of discernment?
2. Is Imhofe aware that Merle Haggard stated Okie From Muskogee was intended as a joke?
June 6th, 2009 at 5:16 pmLeftwing Annie, would you be so kind as to post his email address? I would love to send him something.
And once again, Obama is not kissing the terrorists @sses despite what some cons think. There is a whole world of Muslims out there that have nothing to do with terrorism. These terrorists are feeding the people they are trying to recruit all kinds of anti-American propaganda. Some of it is probably true, other stuff is probably made up. Your darling George Bush came on the scene with his ignorance toward and open contempt for everything Muslim and drove those people right into the arms of the terrorists. In case you haven’t realized by the fact that there are new news reports all the time about new suicide bombings, Bush’s strongarm tactics HAVEN’T WORKED. After 8 years he screwed everything up and solved NOTHING. Now Obama is trying a different tactic. Instead of trying to blow everyone up who doesn’t agree with us, which will probably end in the destruction of the entire Earth and human race, he’s going over there to show these people that we are not the same country that we were under that tyrant Bush. The MORAL majority doesn’t hold the same f#cked up view of the world that he does. And if even ONE person is thinking of joining Al Queda or the like and then hears Obama’s speech and thinks, ‘hmm maybe they aren’t really as bad as these people tried to tell me they are’ and decides NOT to join, THAT will be a victory for America and the War on Terror. What you don’t understand is that in these areas that are ruled by Taliban and Al Queda the only information they are getting about America is through the terrorists themselves. They have their own versions of Rush Limbaugh and the like spreading bull$hit propaganda. Now that we have a president that will go over there and show that he has respect for human beings, whether they share his views or not, maybe, just maybe people will start to realize that the $hit those groups are feeding them is just propaganda and perhaps that will help to stop or at least lessen the frequent attacks on our military overseas. OR DON’T YOU CARE ABOUT THAT?
June 6th, 2009 at 5:44 pmWhat it all comes down to is Republicans being pissed that they got their a$$e$ handed to them in the last elections and don’t control $hit anymore and therefore can’t force their crazy a$$ beliefs down everyone’s throats because a good portion of America wised up to the bull$hit. When Bush first won, whenever Dems would speak out Rush The Big Fat Idiot and his fellow, well, idiots would say ‘oh the Dems are just mad that they lost’ and bull$hit like that. Fast forward 8 years and when the Reps got their ignorant a$$e$ SPANKED, we have idiots doing tea parties and b!tching about everything Obama does. Karma anyone? I always knew that Reps were into teabagging but I didn’t realize how enraptured with it they really were. They are Teabaggers Extraordinaire!!!
June 6th, 2009 at 6:16 pmI made a couple of comments on this blog way back when there were posts from people who were actually thinking about the subject matter of this thread. I am appalled to see that most of the thinkers are gone to bed or left in disgust. Almost everyone is called a moron or some other pertinent name. Yes,I say pertinent because that is pretty much what this thread has degenerated into.
I agree with you all. You are all right, all correct. The names you call each other are all completely true. Even when you change them to synonyms of each other they are simply redundancies and still true.
I have to believe you know better than to let this thread degenerate into a schoolyard fight. If all y’all do not know better it is time to learn facts and figures that are not punctuated by ill-disguised profanities. They add nothing to the discussion but tell more about the person posting than about the person being villified.
I leave you to your character assassinations.

Thank you Inhofe! The comments on this subject clearly show that most commentators know nothing about Islam.
You cannot comment on Islam if you have never read the trilogy that is comprised of the Qur’an (prophecies received by Muhammad from the Angel Gabriel), Sira (biography of Muhammad) and Hadiths (traditions of Muhammad) and then reach your own conclusions about Islam.
You have not read these books, obviously. They are quite long, and perhaps easy to read but understanding them properly requires additional research into background and early commentary.

Rockmelon Says:
Islam is not a “religion” like Lutheran, Catholicism or any other mainstream religion in America.
The “religions” you mentioned are actually denominations of Christianity. You just blew all your credibility out of the water with that one.
.
Rockmelon Says:
Instead, it is an ideology that contains a political system, culture and religion.
Oh, so it’s like Judaism? Or all Christianity prior to the establishment of secular government?

nofreelunch Says:
With liberals, it’s always economics that determines character, when in reality it’s most often character that determines economics.
I have no idea what that means. Are you The Blue Raja though?
.
nofreelunch Says:
One of the fundamental differences between liberals and conservatives, perhaps the most important one politically, is what they think…
Yeah, conservatives think they get to tell liberals what we think.
.
Traditionalist Says:
that President Obama is ingratiating America to the fanatical imbeciles who comprise the majority of Islam.
Is this the part where I pull out the Jesus quote about the beam in your eye, you fanatical imbecile?

Do you even know what the word pertinent means, you moron?
June 7th, 2009 at 7:16 amI knew he would still be wallpapering this thread. I take the Holocaust seriously enough not to wear it out. I am not nor have I ever been anti-semitic. I’m agnostic. Why in the world would I be anti-semitic? The assertion that I would “forget” or approve of any persecution and systematic murder is anti-social.
June 7th, 2009 at 11:59 amWhy is it that everyone who disagrees with the liberals views is a racist, moron or the other some other vile person, according to the comments on this site? Is it because some of us believe that it is against God’s laws to commit homosexual acts. If that lifestyle wasn’t pushed down Christians throats, to be accepted as natural, we may be more receptive to your ideas. If that’s the idea, you folks better never fall under Islamic Law. At least most Muslims have enough common-sense to live side by side with Christians. Our Government has existed this long because it is based on Judeo-Christian ideas and morals even though may do not want to admit it.

Sen. Jim Inhofe said today that President Barack Obama’s speech in Cairo was “un-American” because he referred to the war in Iraq as “a war of choice” and didn’t criticize Iran for developing a nuclear program.
Inhofe, R-Tulsa, also criticized the president for suggesting that torture was conducted at the military prison in Guantanamo, saying, “There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo.”
“I just don’t know whose side he’s on,” Inhofe said of the president.
Unsurprisingly, actual Iraqis and Iranians — a couple of the key audiences for Obama’s speech — viewed it far more favorably than Inhofe. Iraqi government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said the speech reflected greater understanding of Mideast culture and “reduces the chance of growth of extremist ideas that are trying to tarnish the image of Islam in the world.” “Obama’s speech was extraordinary. I loved it,” said 24-year old Iranian Morteza Sinaie. “I wish every Iranian would hear it. I think it would dramatically change their opinion about Obama and the United Sates.”
Reporting from Iraq, NPR correspondent JJ Sutherland noted one family said they wished Obama’s words “to be real. We wish what he’s saying to be real.” Reporting from Iran, Christian Science Monitor’s Scott Peterson wrote, “Mr. Obama’s pledge that America was ‘ready to move forward’ with ‘courage, rectitude, and resolve’ will be welcome in Tehran.”
One of the important goals of Obama’s speech was to stop creating an “us versus them” mentality with the Muslim world, the very approach that Inhofe is still espousing. In his speech, Obama tried to end language that suggests the Muslim world and the U.S. are on competing sides:
I have come here to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world; one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect; and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive, and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles — principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.
The Wall Street Journal reports, “Muslims in the Middle East and beyond praised U.S. President Barack Obama for the tone of his speech Thursday.” Al-Jazeera, the Arab world’s leading satellite channel, celebrated the speech as “an attempt at forging a new relationship between Washington and the Muslim world.” If the Muslim world is on America’s side, whose side is Inhofe on?
UpdateThe Financial Times reports, “Even Saudi Islamists expressed their satisfaction after Mr Obama spoke on Thursday. ‘It is a beautiful speech in general,’ said Mohsen al-Awaji, an activist. ‘He talked about peace in Islam and we are saying yes, Islam is a religion of peace towards those who are peaceful with us but a religion of war for those who are fighting us.’”
UpdateMore Iraqi reaction. The Washington Post reports, “[F]or many Muslims, Obama’s nearly hour-long address at Cairo University was a much-welcomed clearing of the air.”
Why is it that everyone who disagrees with the liberals views is a racist, moron or the other some other vile person, according to the comments on this site? Is it because some of us believe that it is against God’s laws to commit homosexual acts. If that lifestyle wasn’t pushed down Christians throats, to be accepted as natural, we may be more receptive to your ideas. If that’s the idea, you folks better never fall under Islamic Law.
