Oh, and you still didn't answer MY question. Are you really willing to simply overlook ALL of Obama's questionable associations?

No, I haven't. I am not a Christian, so a couldn't care less about who Jesus hung out with.

I could understand you using the "guilt by association" defense if there was just one person (or maybe two) in Obama's list of buddies that broke the law and were anti-American. But Dr. Sowell has listed about 4 or 5 folks, and he didn't even mention Van Jones! WodenofAzgard, are you really willing to overlook ALL of those questionable associations?

You idiot libs are advocating throwing out your car because you got a flat tire. Of course, Obama, that slick-talking car salesman, is more than happy to sell you a new one. What strikes me too is that weird adoration that Obama fans seem to have for him. I find Obama to be nothing more than a sheister. Even the way he talks is so "un-presidential." I mean, joking with the audience about "muting the tv?" Seriously? The highest elected official in our land is joking about this? Unfortunately, he himself is the joke.

"The other side knows they can't sell their economic plan because we tried it and it didn't work, and everybody remembers that." This is the biggest piece of political rhetoric horsesh!t I have ever heard. The DEMS send our economy into the toilet with the Community Reinvestment Act, and then blame the "economic plans of the past" to implement their horrible liberal policies. You idiot libs really need to wake up. Economies are cyclical. Just because we have a few years that are down, does not mean we should FUNDAMENTALLY change the economic system of the country. Remember, this same economic system provided over 200 prosperous years (or at least the overwhelming majority were prosperous).

What an idiot OTW is. Umm, get a clue dude. Even in the "context" of a parody of George W. hiring Condaleeza for his staff, it's STILL A RACIST comment! Geez, you're stupid.

They toss around words like 'private equity', without truly kinowing what it means, just that it is somehow vaguely evil and nefarious sounding." You make some EXCELLENT points here JB. Every liberal should read what I just quoted from you and really sit down and think about it. Lefties, think long and hard about this before you vote in Nov. I was actually surprised that Sununu didn't point out that this is OUR money Obama is spending vs. Romney spending his and investors' money. (Although maybe he did state that - I didn't hear the rest of the segment)

Thanks for the chuckle Snarkasterous! I would have liked to point out how ridiculous pinenee's post was, but just didn't have the energy. Pinenee, are you dealing with a full deck?

This is hilarious. My wife's parents' 50th wedding anniversary was a few weeks ago. I wish this "donate to Obama registry" existed back then. It would have been fun to set up a registry page for their anniversary party. Although, some of the lefty nuts that were invited probably would have actually donated. Also, love that video! (It is an excellent parody of the "Most Interesting Man in the World" commercial by Dos Equis beer).

Sorry, I should point out that this line: "Both sides do it, but the libs/dems are especially prone to that" was my own commentary, and not implied nor stated more directly in the article by Dr. Sowell.

Wow b_niles, you missed the entire point of Dr. Sowell's article. To spell it out for you, this autism stuff he is writing about is just a symptom of how messed up our political system has gotten. Politicians pretend to care about some disadvantaged group, offer to help them by spending OUR tax dollars on it, and therefore expect these people's votes in return. Both sides do it, but the libs/dems are especially prone to that. Get it now? Also, do you notice any similarities between this concept and Obama's frequent line "the rich should pay their fair share?"
