I don't think this country is ready for book burning and hope we never are. And I confess I have not read it, but I will soon. However, to see the prez with this book is disconcerting to some.............

I don't really follow your logic or your point, unless it might be that by burning this book the situation it describes will disappear. Or that by the President not reading it, the situation will disappear.

The United States has slipped near last place in many economic, health and education measurements in the G-8 nations. Americans do need to take a look at this and see what can be done about it. There are several books on this topic, including one by an American professor at Catholic University of America titled Dark Ages America.

He says the blame for this can't be put on one individual and that running around demonizing a particular person is part of the problem, not part of the solution. He says the problem is caused by the mass American appetite for trash, trivia, porn, and entertainment, and the lifestyle that accompanies this.

If you answered in the affirmative to at least 2 of these questions, congratulations! You are a Muslim! Please be sure and get your copy of "Books you are not allowed to read because they are anti-American" at the door.

You asked the wrong questions.

1/ Do I hate the Constitution
2/Do I hate America as evidenced by my presence in a hate America church for 20 years.
3/ Do I aid islamic terrorists at every opportunity?
4/ Do I kiss the asses of every enemy of America?
5/ Have I got the liberal morons in this country completely brainwashed?

We all know the answers.

Oh oh I get it! Osama and Obama rhyme! You clever boy.

It's an indication of how he was raised.

Nope, it's an indication that he has a father. You just really pissed off anyone out there who was stuck with a crappy last name.

What do you suppose was his reason for voluntarily going from his American name, Barry, to Barrack Hussein? Did he pick that up in his Christian training? And here's a flash, anyone who hates America and is proud of his muslim name IS someone I couldn't care less about "pissing off". Our official policy SHOULD be to piss those people off by going after them, we're at war with them.

I have an Italian last name. Believe it or not, I'm not Catholic. Go figure.

Hey, I bet when you were a kid people called you Mike or Mikey, didn't they? And now you go by Michael. Are you a Muslim?

Ah, and therefore Timothy McVeigh is a good indication that all people of Scottish heritage are raised to be terrorists.

Brilliant.

Come on Cari, I know you can do better than that!!

Here, read this from the Wall Street Journal, it will help you understand my disgust with this fraud in the White House. I believe every syllable, as should every objective American.




Obama's Make-Believe Life


By:Alan Caruba


"I have this theory about Barack Obama. I think he's led a kind
of make-believe life in which money was provided and doors were opened
because at some point early on somebody or some group took a look at this
tall, good looking, half-white, half-black, young man with an exotic
African/Muslim name and concluded he could be guided toward a life in
politics where his facile speaking skills could even put him in the White House.

In a very real way, he has been a young man in a very big hurry. Who else do
you know has written two memoirs before the age of 45? "Dreams of My
Father" was published in 1995 when he was only 34 years old. The "Audacity of
Hope" followed in 2006. If, indeed, he did write them himself. There are some
who think that his mentor and friend, Bill Ayers, a man who calls himself a
"communist with a small 'c'" was the real author.

His political skills consisted of rarely voting on anything that might be
deemed controversial.. He went from a legislator in the Illinois legislature
to the Senator from that state because he had the good fortune of having
Mayor Daley's formidable political machine at his disposal.

He was in the U.S. Senate so briefly that his bid for the presidency was
either an act of astonishing self-confidence or part of some greater game
plan that had been determined before he first stepped foot in the Capital.
How, many must wonder, was he selected to be a 2004 keynote speaker at the
Democrat convention that nominated John Kerry when virtually no one had ever
even heard of him before?

He outmaneuvered Hillary Clinton in primaries. He took Iowa by storm. A
charming young man, an anomaly in the state with a very small black
population, he oozed "cool" in a place where agriculture was the antithesis
of cool. He dazzled the locals. And he had an army of volunteers drawn to
a charisma that hid any real substance.

And then he had the great good fortune of having the Republicans select one
of the most inept candidates for the presidency since Bob Dole. And then
John McCain did something crazy. He picked Sarah Palin, an unknown female
governor from the very distant state of Alaska. It was a ticket that was
reminiscent of 1984's Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro and they went
down to defeat..

The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl
crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now
over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin,
was extraordinary.

Now, nearly a full year into his first term, all of those gilded years
leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left
to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the
wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the
briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters.

Far worse, however, is his capacity to want to "wish away" some terrible
realities, not the least of which is the Islamist intention to destroy
America and enslave the West. Any student of history knows how swiftly Islam
initially spread. It knocked on the doors of Europe , having gained a
foothold in Spain.

The great crowds that greeted him at home or on his campaign "world tour"
were no substitute for having even the slightest grasp of history and the
reality of a world filled with really bad people with really bad intentions.

Oddly and perhaps even inevitably, his political experience, a cakewalk,
has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party's hold on power in
Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always
about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family,
mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues.

Obama is a man who could deliver a snap judgment about a Boston
police officer who arrested an "obstreperous" Harvard professor-friend,
but would warn Americans against "jumping to conclusions" about a mass
murderer at Fort Hood who shouted "Allahu Akbar." The
absurdity of that was lost on no one. He has since compounded this by
calling the Christmas bomber "an isolated extremist" only to have to
admit a day or two later that he was part of an al Qaeda plot.

He is a man who could strive to close down our detention facility at
Guantanamo even though those released were known to have returned to
the battlefield against America .. He could even instruct his
Attorney General to afford the perpetrator of 9/11 a civil trial when
no one else would ever even consider such an obscenity. And he is a man
who could wait three days before having anything to say about the
perpetrator of yet another terrorist attack on Americans and then have
to elaborate on his remarks the following day because his first
statement was so lame.

The pattern repeats itself. He either blames any problem on the Bush
administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth.

Knock, knock. Anyone home? Anyone there? Barack Obama exists only
as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered
and manufactured this pathetic individual's life.

When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this
man has spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other
documents, the paper trail we all leave in our wake, have been sequestered
from review. He has lived a make-believe life whose true facts remain
hidden.

We laugh at the ventriloquist's dummy, but what do you do when the
dummy is President of the United States of America ?"

No, you're the one who's going to need to do better than trying to squeeze meaning out of an adult not wanting to be called a nickname.

Objective people don't blindly believe everything they read.

I don't believe you have properly cited this WSJ article, but I'll leave that to someone else to correct.

I like how you tell everyone what they should believe. Very objective of you. EDIT: This strikes me as extemely arrogant.

Cari, stop picking on Mikey. He's getting upset.
