Retired Veteran with a Smart Wife
from Doofiegirl on 06/27/2015 10:58 PMEarly one morning an elderly retired veteran just finished a piece of
artwork he had been working on and yelled to his wife,
"Honey! Come see what I created! It's an abstract panorama depicting the six years of the Obama Administration!"
She yelled back, "Flush the toilet Herman and come eat your breakfast!!!"

from cattastrophy on 06/27/2015 10:30 PMWell it looks like that sorry S.O.B. in the White House finally got his way.
I can remember him once saying that the United States is no longer a Christian Nation....and boy he sure meant it didn't he?
Sorry but I cqan only wish him nothing but ill harm for the rest of his life.....but knowing the ignorance of him and his supporters they have already made him a living martyr.
The only thing I can do today is vomit at the thought of what my beloved country has become.

Re: TPP Passes: Obama Now A Dictator
from cattastrophy on 06/27/2015 08:25 PMThat's because so many people want the government to take care of then.
They either rob, kill, scam, or just plain use eminate domain to take from us. But the sad part about this is THE SHEEPLE DON'T HAVE THE BALLS TO STAND THEIR GROUND AND TELL THE GOVERNMENT THIS IS WRONG OR THIS IN NOT RIGHT.
Why? So many say I DON'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED or IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM or the classic WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME.

from cattastrophy on 06/27/2015 08:18 PMWell, Doc we do agree there about him being an actor and giving a schitt less about the people. He does put on a good show but sadly not everyone seems to want to put him out of business.
The sheeple are scared of him. They are afraid of "OFFENDING" him and or someone involved with the Government. Something like back in the 1930's when Hitler started to rule Germany and turn it in to a Nazi state.
Doc, I still remember the horror stories my uncle told me of his days in the SS and the things that Hitler ordered him to do. And Nazi Germany started out just like this...removing one freedom at a time....
Doc we only have 17 more months to put up with Obama BUT I have a feeling that he is going to either abolish the 22nd amendment or alter it so that he can be "ruler of America" After all the last time it was ratified was in 1951, you do the math.

Re: Conservatives React to Supreme Court Forcing Gay Marriage on America [ by Onan Coca
from cattastrophy on 06/27/2015 07:09 PMI am so sick of this country.
I never thought in a million years that I would ever talk about the land that I was born in and the land of my ancestors were born in. Trust me Doofie, this Apache and those before me are the sadest in the land. White man took our land. Now a black man took my religious right from me.
If people reading this cannot tell that they are living in a land that has become communistic then they are as blind as that man with a white cane or seeing eye dog.
This time the people have no one to blame but themselves, why, because they didn't have to guts to stand their ground and like the sheeple they are just let things go the way of the minority.
In days past it used to be MAJORITY RULES meaning the voice of the people was heard. This latest ruling just proved that it is THE MINORITY THAT WON. O(h, yea, the liberals are going to say that the majority won but, sorry, I would not call 5-4 with a majority of 9 people a MAJORITY OF THE POPULUS.
I believe there was a lot of pressure from the White House over this. Here you do the math.
It is estimated that there are 306 million people here in the United States. It is estimated that there are only 6 million gays.
Now that last time I went to school, without common core, 300 million is greater than 6 million. BUT, with the new common core math 6 million is greater then 300 million.
Soon my wife and I will be packing our things and moving. I have been here 71 years she has been here 68 years. We have a place up in Canada where we don't have to put up with the crap that is happening here in the United States.
Sorry but I cannot put up with the corruption of a government that is set on destruction. I love my country but it is the government that I don't love.
Doofie tell me I am wrong in my decision.

Whitewashing the Democratic Party's History
from tommyg4109 on 06/27/2015 06:52 PMIndeed. A good read.
Here's what the former president of the United States had to say when he eulogized his mentor, an Arkansas senator:
"We come to celebrate and give thanks for the remarkable life of J. William Fulbright, a life that changed our country and our world forever and for the better. ... In the work he did, the words he spoke and the life he lived, Bill Fulbright stood against the 20th century's most destructive forces and fought to advance its brightest hopes."
So spoke President William J. Clinton in 1995 of a man who was among the 99 Democrats in Congress to sign the "Southern Manifesto" in 1956. (Two Republicans also signed it.) The Southern Manifesto declared the signatories' opposition to the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education and their commitment to segregation forever. Fulbright was also among those who filibustered the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That filibuster continued for 83 days.
Speaking of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, let's review (since they don't teach this in schools): The percentage of House Democrats who supported the legislation? 61 percent. House Republicans? 80 percent. In the Senate, 69 percent of Democrats voted yes, compared with 82 percent of Republicans. (Barry Goldwater, a supporter of the NAACP, voted no because he thought it was unconstitutional.)
When he was running for president in 2000, former Vice President Al Gore told the NAACP that his father, Sen. Al Gore Sr., had lost his Senate seat because he voted for the Civil Rights Act. Uplifting story -- except it's false. Gore Sr. voted against the Civil Rights Act. He lost in 1970 in a race that focused on prayer in public schools, the Vietnam War and the Supreme Court.
Gore Jr.'s reframing of the relevant history is the story of the Democratic Party in microcosm. The party's history is pockmarked with racism and terror. The Democrats were the party of slavery, black codes, Jim Crow, and that miserable terrorist excrescence the Ku Klux Klan. Republicans were the party of Lincoln, of Reconstruction, of anti-lynching laws, of the civil rights acts of 1875, 1957, 1960 and 1964. Were all Republicans models of rectitude on racial matters? Hardly. Were they a heck of a lot better than the Democrats? Without question.
As recently as 2010, the Senate president pro tempore was former Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd, D-W.V. Rather than acknowledge their sorry history, modern Democrats have rewritten it.
You may recall that when MSNBC was commemorating the 50th anniversary of segregationist George Wallace's "Stand in the Schoolhouse Door" stunt to prevent the integration of the University of Alabama, the network identified Wallace as "R-Ala."
The Democrats have been sedulously rewriting history for decades. Their preferred version pretends that all of the Democratic racists and segregationists left their party and became Republicans starting in the 1960s. How convenient. If it were true that the South began to turn Republican due to Lyndon Johnson's passage of the Civil Rights Act, you would expect that the Deep South, the states most associated with racism, would have been the first to move. That's not what happened. The first southern states to trend Republican were on the periphery: North Carolina, Virginia, Texas, Tennessee and Florida. (George Wallace lost these voters in his 1968 bid.) The voters who first migrated to the Republican Party were suburban, prosperous "New South" types. The more Republican the South has become the less racist.
Is it unforgivable that Clinton praised a former segregationist? No. Fulbright renounced his racist past, as did Byrd and Gore Sr. It would be immoral and unjust to misrepresent the history.
What is unforgivable is the way Democrats are still using race to foment hatred. Remember what happened to Trent Lott when he uttered a few dumb words about former segregationist Strom Thurmond? He didn't get the kind of pass Bill Clinton did when praising Fulbright. Earlier this month, Hillary Clinton told a mostly black audience, "What is happening is a sweeping effort to disempower and disenfranchise people of color, poor people and young people from one end of our country to another. ... Today Republicans are systematically and deliberately trying to stop millions of American citizens from voting." She was presumably referring to voter ID laws, which, by the way, 51 percent of black Americans support.
Racism has an ugly past in the Democratic Party. The accusation of racism has an ugly present.

Obama denounces the confederate flag and insists he is backed by 'majority' of gun owners
from Doofiegirl on 06/27/2015 06:23 PMPresident Barack Obama reached deep today, giving a stirring speech on 'racial subjugation' in America as he eulogized a Charleston pastor who's life was snuffed out last week by a young, white male, who says he was driven to kill out of racial hatred.
Obama held nothing back as he ripped back the curtain on de facto symbols of racism in America, including the Confederate flag, as he took up the mantle of his friend and supporter, Emanuel AME pastor Rev. Clementa Pinckney, at the spiritual and political leader's funeral.
Invoking the will of God, Obama said society has for too long been 'blind to the way past injustices continue to shape the present' and the 'oppression' of blacks in America, who too often grow up in poverty, attend dilapidated schools and have few job and career prospects when they graduate.
Perhaps, the president said, the murder of Pinckney and eight others during a bible study last week will permit Americans to ask themselves some 'tough questions' and soften their hearts toward those 'lost young men,' scores of whom are stuck in the criminal justice system.
And perhaps, he said, it will awaken them to the need to better equip and train police officers so that the 'bonds of trust' between law enforcement and their communities are not broken.
It would be a betrayal of everything Reverend Pinckney stood for, I believe, if we allowed ourselves to slip into a comfortable silence again
'Maybe we now realize the way racial bias can infect us even when we don't realize it,' the president said. 'So that we're guarding against not just racial slurs,' but what he called a 'subtle impulse to call Johnny back for an interview but not Jamal.'
The president lauded politicians in South Carolina who came together this week to call for the removal of the Confederate flag from the statehouse grounds under the leadership of governor Nikki Haley, a Republican.

Conservatives React to Supreme Court Forcing Gay Marriage on America [ by Onan Coca
from Doofiegirl on 06/27/2015 06:09 PMOn Friday the Supreme Court decided to force gay marriage upon all of the states in the Union – declaring the newly discovered Constitutional right of Homosexual marriage.
(Here's everything you need to know about the ruling, in a simple format that is easy to understand.)
It's a sad day for our nation and our culture and the 5-4 decision has stirred much commentary from conservatives across the country.
I thought that I might bring some of their reactions to you today; let's begin with the conservative members of the Supreme Court first.
Chief Justice John Roberts:
The majority graciously suggests that religious believers may continue to "advocate" and "teach" their views of marriage. The First Amendment guarantees, however, the freedom to "exercise" religion. Ominously, that is not a word the majority uses. Hard questions arise when people of faith exercise religion in ways that may be seen to conflict with the new right to same-sex marriage—when, for example, a religious college provides married student housing only to opposite-sex married couples, or a religious adoption agency declines to place children with same-sex married couples... Unfortunately, people of faith can take no comfort in the treatment they receive from the majority today.
