		<description>&quot;It’s still a mystery why his college transcripts and thesis have NEVER been published&quot;

Well let me solve that for you heykev.......he&#039;s an idiot and his grades and thesis prove it.

Do you think for even a nano-second that if they proved otherwise, we wouldn&#039;t have our noses rubbed in their glory 48x7.

To say it is to laugh.</description>

If the MSM won&#039;t do their job, it&#039;s a shame that no conservative new organization can get a hold of this information. 

If the National Enquior of all places has to break stories on John Edwards, then is there really no one that will diaviete from the puff pieces of BHO, his lovely bride and oh so special new doggie.</description>

		<description>Rusty:  &quot;The founding fathers were not about telling people what or how to think.&quot;

But fortunately Nerobama will soon have Justice Sonia Sotomayor to help all of us adjust our thinking in the not too distant future.  And I&#039;m sure that George Washington, Ben Franklin, John Marshall, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and the rest of those dead white males who wrote the Constitution could have learned a lot from this proud and wise Latina woman with her richness of experience.  Adjutorium nostrum, Domine.</description>

		<description>Confuscious. He has only written and spoken out against Christianity. &quot;Non-denominational Christians and Catholics&quot; are to blame for most problems. His propaganda and deception in when ever he mentions Christianity, is to quote Old Testiment passages written before Christianity, accusing Christianity of condoning stoning an adultress, when neither God, nor Jesus ever made this law. Christ told the people to stop as all are sinners. Steven who went to spread the word was stoned by one city, because he spoke of Jesus. Jesus and Christ are not in his vocabulary.  I think the closest he came to ever coming close to say Jesus or Christ was during the televised debate with McCain on religion, when Obombie was put on the spot. He believes in ghosts, taught from an early age of ghosts, voo doo, witchcraft, spirits, believes in the probability of African night runners that come out at night, do his experiences in Kenya. And his more recent, admittance of no belief as to what happens after someone dies.  His grandparents did not practice religion, his mother, life long friends,  taught him all religions, primarily muslim, budda, hindu.
 It&#039;s worries me, since muslims do not believe Jesus was even crucified, and the Quran specifically  blames &quot;Jesus, Mary, and  David&quot;  for the evil world who does not practice one God, the only God.  I would say Obama hasn&#039;t formed a true belief, and but does attack Christianity when he can, and his church of choice was chosen for it&#039;s white and jew hate mongering.

Latest news has said on his not attending church is that he takes time to meditate. Any book he touches probably is the one of the 3 he&#039;s under contract to write, or shows him on the front cover.  Probably working on his memoirs.

He also, wrotes something to the effect the possibility of the Freedom of Religion amendment was fought for by Thomas Jefferson, who may have not been a Christian, but believed in God.  Obama is a man of many faces and masks.</description>

		<description>&quot;According to this view, the Founding Fathers and original ratifiers have told us how to think but are no longer around to tell us what to think. &quot;

This is the basic flaw in his premise.   

The founding fathers were not about telling people what or how to think.  They were, instead a collective group of prominent citizens of the crown colonies, selected by the public to represent their THOUGHTS and DESIRES.   The groups felt that by having these people represent them, basically, noblemen in the eyes of the crown, land owners and men of means, as the colloquial line of thinking was back then, then the masses would have a stronger voice. 

These men turncoats to the crown itself, would have &quot;hanged in publik&quot; by king George&#039;s representatives, the collective law of the land.  

Obama missed the mark with this statement and thus, his fundamental lack of understanding of how democracy was founded here, how it matriculated, how it spread.  It wasn&#039;t these founding fathers getting people all riled up.  It was these people getting the founding fathers all riled up and stepping into action.

There was no ACORN for them.  No mass media (owned by the crown, as it were) to speak their treason to king George.  No fawning group of malcontents who wanted to destroy the crown.  They simply wanted to govern themselves.  

Blammo is such a consummate revolutionary War retard that it&#039;s beyond my comprehension.  It shows with a very bright light how he was taught about our split from Britain.  His ignorance of the great experiment and how the WORLD watched in awe as a rag-tag army of poorly trained and often discouraged people fought and died to be free of tyranny.  

--And defied the greatest power on Earth-- 

But not for the sake of &quot;redistributing the wealth.  It was for the sake of not being taxed illegally, not having a voice in government and being bled dry financially by the crown.

Along with that came the desire for freedom.  Real, true freedom to do as one pleases so long as it hurt no one else.  

He just doesn&#039;t get it.  And it&#039;s things like this that make me want to kick him off his high horse into the  mud and then let my own horse stomp the crap out of him.  He is filth.  He is the epitome of arrogance in ignorance.  He&#039;s the kind of idiot that would tell Einstein that &quot;sure you can go faster than light....you dummy..I saw them do it on TV&quot;.  

His lack of understanding is perhaps what causes my tolerance level to go &quot;TILT&quot; and I short circuit the way I would when someone says &quot;irregardless&quot; or &quot;supposably&quot; or &quot;disorientated&quot;.  

Then, it goes from the sublime to the absolute comical because he BELIEVES his own crap (or appears to) with such conviction, such certainty.   The King&#039;s New Clothes.  

And, if this is the densely-packed crap-for-brains we have at the helm, there is now no mystery as to what kind of waters we shall sail.   Do liberal historians read this crap and actually also believe that our founding fathers, and the documents they authored were to tell the masses &quot;how to think&quot;?

My god....it&#039;s a dead give away on how he understands this nation.   What a fool.</description>

		<description>If our country has to rely on it&#039;s own reason based upon the mindset of Obama and his legions then our country is screwed. These lifelong liberal politicians are dug in like an Alabama tick, into the fabric of our society and just like a tick, they&#039;re draining the life&#039;s blood out of us. In 732 A.D. Charles Martel of the Franks defeated and bloodied the Islamic hordes from over running France. I feel as if there is someone out there ready to take the fight to the liberal horde and drive them out. But I don&#039;t know if this will happen in my lifetime.</description>

		<description>I guess Harvard has been resting on their laurels for the last 40ish years.  I believe that other wordsmith, Caroline Kennedy went there as well.  
I have some bad news for these folks-they need to re-read the Federalist Papers and their history. The Constitution isn&#039;t something that should be interpreted Willy Nilly but these &quot;learned scholars&quot; would say I was incorrect.</description>

		<description>TZ:  &quot;Are we witnessing the fall of another Roman Empire?&quot;

Interesting question.

The pace of change in today&#039;s world may be 10 times what it was in the ancient world, at least for technology.  It&#039;s probably not unreasonable to say that there have been as many innovations in the last 300 years as there were in the prior 3,000.

Does politics move as quickly?   Maybe so.

It took the Roman Empire about 400 to 500 years to go from its height to its demise.

When was the height of the US&#039;s prestige and power?   I would say the 50&#039;s, because during that period there were no challengers since the world had nearly been destroyed.  Since then, we have seen a steady and relentless attack on the US, much of it from within (and in my opinion, started from without).

If the pace of political change is equivalent to the pace of techological change, one could say that the end of the US as the greatest nation ever may well be near.

And the barbarians have certainly siezed power in Washington.

With the full intent of destroying the country.</description>

<p>When was the height of the US&#8217;s prestige and power?   I would say the 50&#8217;s, because during that period there were no challengers since the world had nearly been destroyed.  Since then, we have seen a steady and relentless attack on the US, much of it from within (and in my opinion, started from without).</p>
<p>If the pace of political change is equivalent to the pace of techological change, one could say that the end of the US as the greatest nation ever may well be near.</p>
<p>And the barbarians have certainly siezed power in Washington.</p>
<p>With the full intent of destroying the country.</p>

		<description>O and his ilk who believe the Constitution is...&quot;a living document, and must be read in the context of an ever-changing world&quot; are about to put this country on vary dangerous ground by adhering to the thought of the day philosophy.  Add in the &quot;empathy&quot; factor and the result will be a complete break down of society and utter chaos followed by anarchy.  

The rapid deterioration rate of this country, on every level, transacted by this administration is nothing short of amazing.  Are we witnessing the fall of another Roman Empire?</description>

		<description>Confucius––&quot;Harvard Law has produced many a stain....&quot;

Nerobama, Susan Estrich, et al., must have soon forgotten the legal maxim taught by that brilliant legal scholar and Harvard law professor Holland Taylor:  &quot;The law is reason, free from passion&quot; (Aristotle).  Yep, reason, not empathy, is what the law is about.  Dura lex, sed lex.</description>
