Golly Gee… Same tune…. Different voice…. Are we starting to see a pattern here? Boy, don’t I love a socialist cause it’s good to share if it’s for “the betterment of people”….

kmichaels   September 9th, 2009 - 3:34 pm

Obama is surrounding himself with leftist radicals, socialists, marxists, communists, statists, anti-capitalists, etc etc. FDUCK OBAMA and the horse that shaat him.

Elektra   September 9th, 2009 - 3:35 pm

What? Does he mean ’strain’ as in ‘viral’ strain?

Just Sayin   September 9th, 2009 - 3:36 pm

All I hear is the rants of a communist. This flack isn’t a socialist he’s a bloody communist.

dd   September 9th, 2009 - 3:38 pm

Is he insane.

He’s saying to share my prosperity. Hell no. Today’s poor are less poor than my grandfather.

If I cut down fewer trees, that doesn’t mean that the Poor will cut down what they need. I’m not going to cut down one for the poor. Screw you.

Walmart’s Project Impact: A Move to Crush Competition
This is headlines today. We all need to stop buying from Walmart. They are right in there with Obama. I have not been in there since Christmas and will not buy anything from them. We all need to shop at Kmart, Target or anywhere else. I do a lot of my Christmas online. I guess Walmart has forgotten they started out as a small business to. Now they have every intention of closing all opposition. They had the benifits of small business’s and now Obama is going to stick it to the small business. They also let the thugs get them to pull their ads from Glenn Beck.

ivanhoe   September 9th, 2009 - 3:45 pm

The talk is as phony as the computer generated environment.

Mooranon   September 9th, 2009 - 3:48 pm

If the good Czar is so interested in redistributing resources for the betterment of the world, please let him lead the way by giving up his car, home, bank accounts and job to those too poor to
afford any of these. Lead by example, Dr.

Stephen   September 9th, 2009 - 3:48 pm

Yep. American exceptionalism went down the tubes as soon as “the one” was elected and started on his world apology tour.

Craig Allen   September 9th, 2009 - 3:50 pm

A communist at Harvard, oh my, what a surprise!

Higher learning indeed.

Elmo   September 9th, 2009 - 3:53 pm

It makes sense that he would appear on a virtual “living” site. I will assume the rest of his opinion is imaginary.

S   September 9th, 2009 - 3:55 pm

Well we know who’s next on Glenn Beck’s chopping block LOL

Trent   September 9th, 2009 - 3:58 pm

He sports a very nice beard.

Dear Leader   September 9th, 2009 - 4:01 pm

What is this bonehead’s salary as a czar? I hope he is only getting paid in Granola.

Maybe the homeless should start seeking shelter at the White House.

VIRTUAL WORLD CRAP   September 9th, 2009 - 4:06 pm

Why not just build some computer-generated “virtual resources” for those have-nots, AND LEAVE THE REST OF US ALONE?

Tamika   September 9th, 2009 - 4:06 pm

This man is a SCIENTIST! What he is saying is good not for just us but for just listen better. You will see because he is for my PRESIDENT. Tonight will be great I canot wait. But whoever is pretending to be me is for not the good and you are not being a being so stop.

Tamika   September 9th, 2009 - 4:07 pm

Thanks everyone for recognizing these people are communists and not Marxists which is a political theory. Communism is a political reality that has cost the lives of 150,000,000 world wide. We have to take care we do not end up on this list – -

The partial body count for people murdered by communists is:

China – 73 million murdered
USSR – 58 million murdered
N.Korea – 3 million murdered
Cambodia – 2.6 million murdered
Vietnam – 1.6 million murdered
Ethiopia – 1.3 million murdered
Yugoslavia – 1.0 million murdered
Cuba – 73,000 murdered

Tamikka   September 9th, 2009 - 4:17 pm

Jus stop it! Rat now! My president will take care of all you constitution readin crackahs when he find out whoo yo is.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   September 9th, 2009 - 4:17 pm

America…stay tuned…this is just the beginning!

The Democratzi must have been relying heavily on Katie Couric, Bryan Williams and Charlie Gibson to keep this quiet!

But thank goodness for “real” Americans bringing it to the forefront where it should have been last year before the elections!

But you know what, would it have really mattered to those who were enamoured by the “one” proclaimed by Oprah herself!

I think not!

But now that the rest of America is waking up…bring it out into the open and let’s get rid of these “radicals” in “our” White House!

Isn’t that funny, America, Bilderberg Bush-Obama wants us to remove the word “radical” out of our vocabulary!

Probably because he has so many of them in “our” White House!

Keep up the good work…America! We will win this war…waged by Bilderberg Bush-Obama and his Democratzi henchmen when they drew a line in the sand and dared “real” Americans to cross it!

Americans never back down from a fight…especially when it comes to our freedoms, liberties and the future of our children!

=====================================

THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!

1. GETTING INFORMED
2. GETTING INVOLVED

DON’T TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS IN WASHINGTON AND IN YOUR HOMES…BUT WE WON’T BE STARTING IN 2010 AND BEYOND…GUARANTEED!

IMPEACHMENT OR THE ‘ORIGINAL’ KENYAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE…IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME!

Tamika   September 9th, 2009 - 4:18 pm

STOP PRETENDING TO ME!!! Now I have to get back to the internets or the Boss won’t pay me my salary. I think I do a great job of sticking to all the talking points don’t I? i am especially good and talking “street” to give me more cred. What do you think?

Shari   September 9th, 2009 - 4:28 pm

Hey Tammy, don’t you mean talkin’ “schtreet”?

James   September 9th, 2009 - 4:43 pm

There is that “redistribution of wealth” phrase again. this whole administration if full of these
redistribution of wealth people who want the “rich” to give up some to the “poor” and by “poor” you have to substitute “black”…. which is what Obama is ultimately all about. Black nationalism, redistribution, a racist attitude to whites, change the system…. this is what his whole life has been.

THIS GUY IS A LUNATIC!   September 9th, 2009 - 5:07 pm

LET’S SEE HIM “REDUCE” HIS STANDARD OF LIVING FIRST!

IMPEACHMENT MAY BE OUR ONLY SALVATION!

CASS SUNSTEIN IS CRAZY TOO! MY CAT DOESN’T NEED “CIVIL RIGHTS”!

Eddie   September 9th, 2009 - 5:41 pm

Another example of a dude nobody ever heard of except for the scientific community, suddenly thrust into Al Gore’s imaginary world and spouting crap that nobody wants to hear. Go back to sleep. There are more important things to be done than what this sci-fi idiot has for us.

Cholomite   September 9th, 2009 - 5:49 pm

“The notion that the United States is so big, so important, so powerful, so technologically advanced that it can and should do what it wants, I think this strain is misguided.”

I think it’s a misguided notion too. The US government no moral right to go stomping around the world imposing its will on everyone to further its interests and those of its corporate cronies.

However, I think Holdren’s definition of American Exceptionalism is in itself misguided. American Exceptionalism is the political and economic system laid out in the Constitution which allows it’s free citizens to prosper to the best of their abilities without government interference. That is what makes the United States so big, so important, so powerful, so technologically advanced. Not the other way around.

Fat Gandhi   September 9th, 2009 - 5:58 pm

Great. Another “Hate America First”-er.

Maybe he is right. Any country where a POS like him can rise to the level he has must have something wrong with it.

Dee   September 9th, 2009 - 5:59 pm

Maybe we ought to give the poor and non-workers all the money and start with a clean slate. Isn’t that what BHO wants! Just give them everything!!! I figure in a couple of years they would either spend it all or BE dead broke. Then everyone will see what idiots we have in Washington DC!

shane2813   September 9th, 2009 - 6:02 pm

Shari don’t respond to them OK. MARXIST=DEMOCRATS=TERRORIST All the same.

Bill   September 9th, 2009 - 6:06 pm

Let’s see.. We know what America has given the world: Food, Technology, Mobility, Freedom, Opportunity and Refuge.

Africa’s most notable contributions have been Obama and AIDS.

You make the call.

Taylor   September 9th, 2009 - 6:06 pm

I think ultimately Obama is going to have to get the hell out of office…that will make me more prosperous…http://stringsection.blogspot.com/

Sammy   September 9th, 2009 - 6:20 pm

Government employees move up the ladder through educational credentials rather than merit. People are given jobs and promotions based on seniority, race and gender rather than ability or talent. Such a system often overlooks the deserving and rewards the incompetent. There is no payoff for achievement. – James Cook

Van Jones and Obama are fakes.

Unless they come dressed like Africans in dashikis and afros you shall pay no attention to them. Even more so if this black “radical”is married to a white woman. Black fakes 100% lol

They are pseudo blacks imitating Whites. They Bash whites only to get promoted by the black raped White establishment apparatus.

Here is proof Obama is Kenyan born:

When ever liberals are in charge of the government, free loving citizens lose their liberties.

AMERICA IS EXCEPTIONAL……… so get over it, you goddamn pinko commie fag.

Patrick Henry   September 10th, 2009 - 12:38 am

Patrick Henry, March 23, 1775.

No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely and without reserve. This is no time for ceremony. The questing before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.

Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.

I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves and the House. Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received? Trust it not, sir; it will prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with those warlike preparations which cover our waters and darken our land. Are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation? Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled that force must be called in to win back our love? Let us not deceive ourselves, sir. These are the implements of war and subjugation; the last arguments to which kings resort. I ask gentlemen, sir, what means this martial array, if its purpose be not to force us to submission? Can gentlemen assign any other possible motive for it? Has Great Britain any enemy, in this quarter of the world, to call for all this accumulation of navies and armies? No, sir, she has none. They are meant for us: they can be meant for no other. They are sent over to bind and rivet upon us those chains which the British ministry have been so long forging. And what have we to oppose to them? Shall we try argument? Sir, we have been trying that for the last ten years. Have we anything new to offer upon the subject? Nothing. We have held the subject up in every light of which it is capable; but it has been all in vain. Shall we resort to entreaty and humble supplication? What terms shall we find which have not been already exhausted? Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves. Sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne! In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free– if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending–if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained–we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!

They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power. The millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable–and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come.

It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace– but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Calvin&Hobbes   September 12th, 2009 - 3:39 pm

What in Hell is this Socialist Moron talking about?

He lives and benefits from Capitalism that brings about American ‘Exceptionalism’.

Obama’s real slogan comes out of hiding:
***** R O P E – and – C H A I N S *****

democratsarefascists   September 12th, 2009 - 11:41 pm

Get this straight.

Democrats are all elitist, eugenics-loving, America-hating snobs.

They hate you.

They hate all humanity and want it dead.

They are a death cult and allowing them to live among you will be your doom.
