Did the dems vote it in or did they fillibuster it to it's death?

I do believe the dems never tried to kill it.

TWICE.

Somebody needs to study their political history.

# Passed the House on October 24, 2001 (Yeas: 357; Nays: 66)
# Passed the Senate on October 25, 2001 (Yeas: 98; Nays: 1)

That's a lot of Democrats voting YES here.

And I remember Clinton using the FISA law to do his bidding too.

From Obama's victory speech...

Quote
But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you, especially when we disagree. And, above all, I will ask you to join in the work of remaking this nation, the only way it's been done in America for 221 years — block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.

What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot end on this autumn night.

This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were.

It can't happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.

So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.

A quote by Ayn Rand that I have never forgotten...

“It only stands to reason that where there’s sacrifice, there’s someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there’s service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of service and sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.”


Quote
I would prefer to give the benefit of the doubt until he proves otherwise.

The election results ensured that Obama would be my next President, they didn't change my opinion of him.

It is impossible to give the benefit of the doubt to someone I don't trust.

However, it is not impossible for him to earn my trust.

I hope that he will.

Maybe you'll feel a little better about your new President if you realize Ayn Rand was an idiot.

I do, and it doesn't make me feel one little bit better about Obama or his support for infanticide or socialism or "government is the answer to everything that ails you."

Lets see, Selma Alabama Bloody Sunday was in 1965.
"My parents got together "because of what happened in Selma."

Obammi was born in 1961.

The man will show his true colors.
An embellisher and liar.

Your "quote" is not Obama's words, but Hollrah's attempts at twisting and spoonfeeding it to an eager audience. The civil rights movement started well before 1965 and 1961, and that was Obama's theme in the speech.

Good work Mr. W. smile . I get a chuckle out of the conspiracy theories floating around; the "O" for "Obama" flag fiasco was hysterical.

I have to say that I am amazed at how many folks bobble their heads at this gibberish, passing it around as fact without doing any due dilligence. Oh well. I guess with unemployment rising, too many people have too much time on their hands, so they listen to Rush and believe every word.

He misspoke. Happens to all of us. George Bush said that he and Reagan had sex.

Get over it.

Mr W:

Sort of reminds me of when GBush 41 opened a speech with the VFW or American Legion by remembering the brutal attack on Pearl Harbor on its anniversary in 1990 or 1991. He went on about the effects of the attack and his reactions on this day 49 or 50 years ago.

Problem was, he was talking on September 7th, not December 7th. HE kept saying "49 years ago today, the Japanese..." The murmers in the crowd finally slowed him down...

Can a politian make a mistake? Sure.

Is Ayn Rand an idiot? Not any worse then some of the left wing pundits. Ms. Rand was a least able to put her thoughts into a book.

Matter of fact, when I had to write a English Comp thesis paper in college, I selected "Atlas Shrugged" for the subject. The professor looked at me with surprise and asked "Do people still read THOSE books?" Sure! I said.

In many respects, Obama is being seen just like the protagionst in "Atlas Shrugged" or "The Fountainhead". As the only one who can put this broken thing back together.

Amusing.

Exactly. I wouldn't worry about someone making a slip-up (the exact date that Bush messed up, or Obama's 47 vs 57 slip-up).

What I do worry about is when it's not a slip-up, but lack of important knowledge. Think McCain saying that Iran and Al Queda are pals.

Except the left wing media had a field day with Bush and other Republicans. Remember Potatoe?
Yet the Messiah can do no wrong.
I will not let anyone slide now.
It's open season. And will be for as long as the Messiah is in office.
I will be on him like white on rice.

Oh and in other news, Joe the Plumber was illegally investigated.
I bet this will be buried and accepted as legitimate.
The Obama News Network will quell any thing against him.
