The adoration of the Obamessiah

“LOL...its a comin' yeah you can be the "party boy" to the rest of the world. And just like CAUTUH he will find out.”

““I predict two terms, won handily.

Depends mainly on how the economy responds and to a lesser extent on who the GOP runs against him. I don't see any real stars out there, except possibly Eric Cantor.”

That's for sure. If there's a rabbit in every pot then he'll win re-election because everybody will forget all about 'Sovereign Immunity' and Violations of Int'l Law/Constitution.”

“The GOP, as is the USA, is a wounded bully that needs no more attacks, just let it fall on it's face.”

“Bully for you!”

“Forgot, the democrats will soon follow with a big thud.”

“LOL...yeah this will be the fourth time I have heard the "SOCIALISIM IS GOING TO WIN" crap from the left. Sorry Icky but there will be a backlash.

I am just petrified that when it happens we will see something like what happened in Germany in the 1930's. And the fact that PrezBO managed to can all these rights will become the support for losing more rights.”

“Speakin' of bullies..............”

“I'm so scared, I'm gona oil my guns
and reheat my bible.”

“BlahBlahBlah....

Y'all can pi$$-fight all day and get absolutely nowhere.

Me? I got corn poppin' so's I'll be ready to sit back and watch as President Obama goes Ray Niggan on us.

Now that's gonna be a sight to see.”

“I heard they cleared out the bullies. Tossed them out on their fat asses ----”

“Good post, Icky. � Thanks!

If you guys missed it, page back ----

The talking heads on both the Left and the right are giving Obama a pass on this. � I think he's #&%!$ing up.”

“

SuperBarney will save us from ourselves!”

“Looks like Barney is ready for some "fisting", dOOd?

"Y'all can pi$$-fight all day and get absolutely nowhere."

Hey-ull brother, we already no-way-uh.”

“I don't know where icky is getting his info, but the war in Iraq is not in Obama's budget.

Dick Cheney has asked that the intelligence gathered from the interrogations mentioned in the memos be made public. We seem to forget that Nancy Pelosi and her cronies approved the memos. Maybe Icky wants Pelosi in jail.”

“You know if these dems end up being locked up and a new crop of politicians get in...say the bizzare Moral Majority types. Imagine what they could do with control of banks, automobile companies etc?”

“So you are saying it is much better to let the people without morals have the control?”

“No bacpac, what I am saying is that the libbies love the take over of private industry and the violation of separation of powers and constitutional issues while they are in power. They are too short sighted to see that one day the tables may turn. Then they will be #&%!$ing about their "rights" being trampled upon....but those rights will have dissolved under the PrezBO.”

“...the libbies love the take over of private industry and the violation of separation of powers and constitutional issues while they are in power.

Please refute the following: "the neocons loved the take over of private industry and the violation of separation of powers and constitutional issues while they were in power"? Be specific. Extra credit for using the phrase "silly libbie" at least three times.”

“dance puppets dance!”

“OKAY Kleetn, please tell me ONE private industry that President Bush resolved and asked Congress to grant him over arching power over.

In refutation you see the BANKING industry (where the Imperial Federal Government is demanding stock control, the Auto Industry where EXECUTIVES were fired...sorry what exactly IS your definition of Fascisim?)
I am not talking the maggot infested bs of the 60's but the real Economic definition.”

HAVANA -- Fidel Castro said Tuesday that President Obama "misinterpreted" his brother Raul's sentiments toward the United States and bristled at any suggestion Cuba should free political prisoners or reduce official fees on money sent to the island from the U.S.”

Your post makes no sense... The last sentence contradicts your initial assertion.

So... it would seem that there are some Obama supporters who are not in denial.

“Top bailed-out firms continue lobbying
Apr 21 03:42 PM US/Eastern
By JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS


WASHINGTON (AP) - The top 10 recipients of the government's $700 billion financial bailout spent about $9.5 million on federal lobbying during the first three months of the year.

The biggest spender was bailed-out automaker General Motors Corp., which devoted $2.8 million to lobbying in the first quarter of 2009. It has received $13.4 billion in government loans and could get $5 billion more, according to a government report released Tuesday.

Failed insurance giant American International Group Inc. and banks Citigroup Inc. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. each reported spending more than $1 million to influence the government as they lived off federal money this year. AIG has gotten $40 billion from the bailout fund and has access to as much as $70 billion, while Citigroup has received $45 billion and JPMorgan $25 billion.

The lobbying activity was revealed publicly in reports required to be filed with Congress. This year's first quarterly report was due Monday.

Other major recipients of money from the so-called Troubled Assets Relief Program also had substantial lobbying costs in the first three months of this year, including:

_Bank of America Corp., which reported spending $660,000 lobbying while receiving its $45 billion in help;

_Wells Fargo & Company, with $700,000 in lobbying costs and $25 billion in bailout money;

_Goldman Sachs, which spent $670,000 while receiving its $10 billion;

_Morgan Stanley, which spent $540,000 while also getting $10 billion in assistance;

_PNC Financial Services Group, spent $135,000—nearly double what it did at the end of last year—on lobbying while receiving a $7.8 billion lifeline;

_U.S. Bancorp spent $170,000 on lobbying and got $6.6 billion in government aid.

"They say they're not using public money for these purposes, but in effect these companies are steering taxpayer funds to lobbying and campaign contributions," said Craig Holman of the watchdog group Public Citizen. "It's completely unjustifiable."

The reports suggest that most of the bailed-out companies have beefed up their lobbying at least marginally since last year. Seven spent more to influence the government than they did in the last quarter of 2008.

The largest increases apart from PNC were by Goldman, which spent 34 percent more on lobbying than it did at the end of last year; Wells Fargo, which spent about 21 percent more, and JPMorgan, which lobbied 19 percent more. AIG also devoted some 16 percent more money to interacting with the government, despite the "no-lobbying" policy it adopted late last year after receiving repeated bailouts.

AIG said in its filing that it still had to spend considerable resources contacting officials during the first three months of the year. The communication was "in response to requests and to correct misinformation," the company reported. "Consistent with AIG's lobbying policy, the company did not engage in any lobbying with respect to federal legislation in the first quarter of 2009."

Still, Public Citizen's Holman noted that the lobbying disclosure law exempts expenditures made to comply with congressional hearings or to respond to requests by government officials for specific information. "What AIG's reporting is, in fact, influence peddling," he said.

The disclosures also show that AIG has fired several lobbyists since the beginning of the year, including from the powerhouse firm Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, the prominent Republican company DC Navigators and The Washington Tax Group.

Among the companies that reduced their lobbying activity were Bank of America, which slashed its costs about 20 percent, and GM, which spent 15 percent less than during the last quarter of 2008.

(This version CORRECTS Citigroup bailout amount $45B notsted $50B, CLARIFIES AIG bailout could reach $70B.)”

“When will americans run out of money to buy their governments? The ugliest outcome would be when a chicom flag flies on BHO's digs. ARE we finding out what the end of real world monopoly games end like?”

"Rhetorically, Republicans are having a very hard time finding something that raises the consciousness of the average voter," said Saul Anuzis, the former chairman of the Michigan Republican Party who recently lost a bid to became national party chairman.

Workaday labels like "big spender" and "liberal" have lost their punch, and last fall, Senator John McCain of Arizona and Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska gained little traction during the presidential campaign by linking Mr. Obama's agenda to socialism.

So Mr. Anuzis urges the GOP to turn to provocation with a purpose. He says they should call the president's domestic agenda "economic fascism."

"We've so overused the word 'socialism' that it no longer has the negative connotation it had 20 years ago, or even 10 years ago," Mr. Anuzis said. "Fascism -- everybody still thinks that's a bad thing."”

“But to answer the question you so eloquently posed, the tenets of fascism were never actually delineated by actual fascists. Instead, the definition was later constructed by a few historians ... and a shìtload of bystanders. In that sense, you can make fascism out to be whatever you want it to be.

Ultimately, its only real purpose is that of a vague insult. If you pick and choose the aspects of fascism you want to look at, you can make just about any political view to be fascist. Like this: Fascism is where a thug caste oppresses the masses with violence to promote a corporate agenda, fusing the interests of the wealthy, large corporations, and the military. In other words, fascists are what conservatives aspire to be.

Instead of using the word "fascist," I think blabbermouth interweb experts should just use the word "douchebag" because that's what they really mean. Got that, ya douchebag?

“So you are agreeing that the present government and its growing control over private industry is Fascist...thank you Kleetn.”

“So you are agreeing that fascism is an intense form of conservatism. Thank you, douchxl. Have you forgotten how fascism tries to dissolve the separation of church and state by integrating religion with government? Who did Mussolini make responsible for education?

Ho hum, I suppose after the word fascism loses its luster, you could move on to botulism.
Or Satanism.
Or cubism.
Or antidisestablishmentarianism.”

“Kleetn....I know you are getting frustrated dealing with actual logic rather than Libbie bedwetting, but lets try to calm down and get your hairbows loosened.

Fascisim has always been defined as Government run private business, the PREZBO admin is showing us the real meaning. Yes the trains may run on time, but the rest is failure.

Your problem is that you have so invested in this empty suit who does not have a thought that is not placed on his teleprompter. You see that he is so inexperienced he lets his emotions and stupidity run away. Its OKAY...we know he is a celebrity type politician. We don't think any less of you because you blindly follow him like the critters in Animal Farm.”

Double take. Joe Biden is less popular than Dick Cheney. Well, in the first half year of the first term that is.

A slim 51 percent of Americans have a favorable view of Vice President Biden. Cheney was at 58 percent in July 2001. Al Gore, 55 percent in April 1993. The veep comparison comes courtesy of the Pew Research Center's latest report.

The public's favorable take on Biden declined 12 percentage points since January. And don't blame the GOP. Democrats' favorable view fell from 87 to 76 percent. Independents' view fell from 58 to 46 percent.”

“Way to fùck up the thread, einstein.”

“Nice.”

CBC upset over Obama�s stance on black farmers
by Kevin Bogardus
Posted: 04/23/09 05:59 PM [ET]

Black lawmakers are roiled over the Obama administration�s move to potentially cap billions of dollars in compensation owed to black farmers, saying the position contradicts legislation the president championed as an Illinois senator.

In a meeting Wednesday, the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) vented frustration at recent court filings by the Justice Department that could severely limit compensation owed to black farmers discriminated against in the past by the Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Justice Department has estimated that it could cost as much as $4 billion to repay the farmers, yet the recent filings suggest it may cap the total compensation at $100 million � about 2.5 percent.
