How is it that someone these young people know for a few months has a bigger impact than their PARENTS?? Sheesh.<br /><br />Well, maybe when he finds out that one of the groups Obama is planning on getting to help pay for his health care plan - young adults under 30 have to get it, or they get fined - maybe he will see the error of his ways. <br /><br />And do you think ANY of these people who believed Obama's BS abt Hillary fining people will now realize Obama was the one who was going to do it all along?? The irony would be too rich, if it weren't so disturbing - again - highlighting how GULLIBLE people are.<br /><br />Again, right there with ya - we used to watch David Letterman religiously, though I was pretty sick and tired of those Monica jokes. David seemed in awe of Hillary when she was there, but when she wasn't, he couldn't say enough crap abt her.<br /><br />These men are SO threatened by her, aren't they? Well, some, I should say. There are others, like Larry Johnson, who was so impressed by her when he was briefing her on National Security issues that he threw his support to her. He was impressed by her intelligence, her ability to hold different things in tension, just HER. Same as us, I guess.<br /><br />Well, you come on down any time. This is a lovely time here - the ocean temps are still in the low 80's, but it's not as hot out...Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-34588297262382773102009-09-16T19:15:27.752-04:002009-09-16T19:15:27.752-04:00Oh, oops - I didn't mean to say "Federal,...Oh, oops - I didn't mean to say "Federal," but STATE investigations against ACORN, many of which were requested by DEMOCRATS, thus putting a lie to this claim that CONSERVATIVES are out to get ACORN. WTH?? How abt people who actually care abt VOTER FRAUD?? They admitted to 400,000 in NY ALONE - and Dems aren't supposed to have a problem with that? That's where they lose me. I thought Dems were supposed to care abt "one person, one vote" - that was our thing, wasn't it??Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-16086223028789783292009-09-16T18:49:09.946-04:002009-09-16T18:49:09.946-04:00Rev.

Man, come to think of it, comedians are so gullible aren't they? <br /><br />May take you up on that visit some time, I need to surround myself with normal people from time to time. Most of my kids have gone Obot on me, too. My son was firmly in Hillary's camp and he couldn't stand Obama...until he went to college and had a History prof who was drunk with kool aid. He made a very big impression on my son..the bastard! :-)<br /><br />I try to keep any political talk to a bare minimum at home. He learned awhile back that if he dared to defend Obama it would mean a cold stove and a very cold bed for weeks afterward. ;-)Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-71517016718651040152009-09-16T15:21:39.334-04:002009-09-16T15:21:39.334-04:00Oh, dear - and I would have to say, based on all o...Oh, dear - and I would have to say, based on all of the evidence, yes, yes it is!<br /><br />Even Jon Stewart discusses the tapes on The Daily Show, a show I watched religiously until he started drinking the Kool Aide. But I know my biggest Obot brother watches it all the time. Despite the misinformation at the beginning (that none of the charges panned out against ACORN - again, over FOURTEEN STATES Federal Investigation!!!!!), it is pretty good. Go take a look at comedycentral.com. <br /><br />Maybe there's "hope" yet??<br /><br />Oh, and you are so right - Obama will find a way to distance himself, even after giving them almost $1 million dollars last year, and working for them, and telling them they were going to help him shape policy int he White House, and, and, and...<br /><br />Sheesh...<br /><br />If you ever need a break from your Obot husband, you're welcome to visit the Lowcountry! :-)Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-74556933239204726192009-09-16T15:05:06.522-04:002009-09-16T15:05:06.522-04:00Rev.Amy- Well, it looks to me like the media and t...Rev.Amy- Well, it looks to me like the media and the White House can't ignore the fury over these ACORN tapes. It was addressed today at the White House news briefing and from what I can see, a bunch in Congress are pushing to have all funds taken away from ACORN. We'll see where that goes. <br /><br />I have no doubt in my mind that Obama will sit back and refuse to comment on ACORN. If anything, he will just say that they are not the ACORN that he remembered. Just think of the sound of all those nuts cracking as the bus wheels roll over them. <br /><br />Yeah...well, my husband must have taken a heavy dose of kool aide. I wonder if kool-aid addiction could be grounds for divorce? ;-)Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-82021832619398803062009-09-16T14:51:29.946-04:002009-09-16T14:51:29.946-04:00Friend, you can rant on ANY time!
So - how does...Friend, you can rant on ANY time! <br /><br />So - how does your husband justify that ACORN is under investigation in over 14 states?? That's all "Fox News garbage"? Wow - that's a bit of a stretch. Wasn't it just last week that 11 arrest warrants went out in Miami for ACORN workers for voter fraud??? <br /><br />Or how abt that the Census Bureau fired them from the 2010 Census?<br /><br />Or that the Senate voted to cut their funds from HUD? <br /><br />That all happened because why, exactly? Fox News? Yeah, okay.<br /><br />And isn't it convenient how Fox News has been characterized so that anything that comes from them is automatically dismissed? I admit, I was once like that, too. But what I realized during this past election was that they tried a lot harder than the others to be impartial, and were one of the FEW who did not trash Hillary at every opportunity.<br /><br />Who knows - maybe because your husband has to work with accurate data in his work life, and his personal life, he can believe in whatever magical unity unicorns he wants! Ahem. Sorry - that's probably not helping...<br /><br />TO answer your question, yes - they cannot admit they screwed up. And that is why they are calling EVERYONE who opposes Obama's policies a RACIST, like Rep. Johnson and Pres. Carter did yesterday. It has nothing to do with how he got where he is, with whom he associates, his woeful lack of experience, his misogyny, his reneging on numerous promises, none of that. We're all just racists. <br /><br />How incredibly insulting.<br /><br />And I'm with you. I don't get it, either.<br /><br />There are going to be more tapes...Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-40365295785372207972009-09-16T12:36:11.191-04:002009-09-16T12:36:11.191-04:00Hi Amy! Hope you're feeling better. ;-)
This...Hi Amy! Hope you're feeling better. ;-)<br /><br />This whole ACORN thing is just astounding and what is more astounding is the lack of media coverage and the lack of concern by our own government. <br /><br />I tried to tell my Obamabot husband that ACORN was a dirty organization, rife with corruption, but he just laughed and quoted the inane justifications for their voting fraud that he read on blogs like Firedoglake and TPM. <br /><br />With all of this stuff about the tapes, he again just says, "That's just Fox News garbage, it doesn't represent ACORN as a whole." This is a guy who is a scientist, for gosh sakes! He's not stupid, he knows how to read, he must know how to research stuff since he's a <i>research scientist</i>! <br /><br />I can't explain what's happening in our society, when we have people who call themselves liberal progressive and they close their eyes to an organization who are willing to help someone who said they were planning to sexually exploit children. or excuse domestic terrorists ??? All this so they can protect a man that that they supported as President. Are their egos so big that they can't admit that they screwed up when they voted and supported that guy and are willing to allow innocent people to be killed or children enslaved and sexually assaulted by a group of people their precious Obama said he wanted to "shape his presidential agenda"? I.just.don't.get.it. <br /><br />Sorry for the rant...just ranted in a similar fashion on my blog today. I'm beginning to lose hope for this country, I really am.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.com
