I don’t think our children will enjoy the same freedom we’ve had
I recently listened to a good portion of Obama’s Cairo speech along with some commentaries on it. My comments are not actually for Liberal Democrats, because they are pure lemmings, and are essentially beyond all hope short of an act of God. No, my comments are actually for the conservative right, and more importantly for the middle ground folks that can see a bit of good in everything regardless of what it is.
”The man” in the Cairo speech talked up the religion of Islam like it was the best thing since sliced bread, and apologized more than once for this nation “democracy”. I have reservation about our democracy myself, but I certainly wouldn’t prefer a Muslim theocracy to any kind to the “democracy” we have. Obama went on to say that he intended to give special breaks to American Muslims so they could meet the charitable quotas that are dictated by the Qaran. Muslims represent about 1.5% of the population of this country, and they will be getting a tax break that no one else gets. He went on to say that American Muslims would have laws protecting them so they worship as they please. They pray a few times each day wherever they are on their portable prayer rug. Christians can’t pray in school, or mention the name of Jesus Christ let alone drop for a while to face the east for some rug time. I don’t remember a minority doing this well in the past.
The Cairo speech placed more distance between the US and Israel. Obama is intent on having an independent Palestine, and an integrated Israel. An extreme liberal democrat asked me recently if I thought Obama was the anti-Christ. The woman has less brain than a head of lettuce, but incredibly people listen to her, I don’t know why? I told her, “I don’t know that he is.” I could see this comment of mine left her crestfallen. She must have wanted to fight about that. At any rate I did go on to say that Obama was doing a great job of setting up a nice introductory platform for the Anti-Christ with the things that he was doing. Her eyes got wide, when I said that about her “man”, and I told her that it was my understanding that the Anti-Christ would be European (Old Roman Empire). Obama may not have been born in America, but I am certain he wasn’t born in Europe.
99.9% of the population cannot absorb that level of additional debt load. The interest on the loans (oh yes, we owe China and a number of others this money) even at a modest 4% simple interest is a whopping .04(18 trillion) annually = 720,000,000,000 = 720 billion a year in interest each year. By now you are getting the picture. This nation will be bankrupt shortly. The “4-sale” sign is in the front yard, but the owners haven’t been told yet (the people).
I have spoken to folks, but they think I am being to pessimistic. The national debt is 11.5 billion now as I write this. Take the 11.5/18 = 64%. What I am saying to you is that the final devastation I explained above is 64% done. In no time at all it will be complete. In truth, if this economic disaster were to turn around today (not tomorrow, today) there might me a chance our grandchildren (definitely not our children) might get out from under this. In three years when the numbers should be complete; I don’t believe we will ever have a lineage that will ever enjoy the freedom we have had, let alone the freedoms that our ancestors aspired for this nation.

I have said many times, that I did not agree with all the spending Bush did, and did not agree with other things he did. I am a conservative and Bush is not.
I may just quit. I can retire in December, and at 56 years old, that ain’t to bad.
Conservatives may twist Bob, but you are the KING.
If you are a conservative AND a Christian, you are misunderstanding what at least one of those means. You can’t be both.
“At any rate I did go on to say that Obama was doing a great job of setting up a nice introductory platform for the Anti-Christ with the things that he was doing.

Oh, so you’re insane.
So many people misunderstand this: the anti-christ has already come. John, in the Revelation, was talking about Nero. The Revelation is not prophecy, it’s a roman a clef about the first century Mediterranean.
Lib friends,
What moron addressed a post to magnum and then signed it magnum. Come on guys, in are fight to keep our power we cannot let our stupidity show.
The Libtard
He Billie boy….were was your concern for your kids the last 8 years when Bush was increasing the deficit from 5.5 to 11.0 trillion? Plus his foreign policy turned the whole world against us.making us less safe. Selective memory Billy??
magnum..i have no idea who screwed up the post using your name. But it was an excellent question.So I will take credit for it. Now,answer my question in that post.
magnum…”facts are a stubborn thing”….Ronnie Raygun
Ah crap, I hope I don’t get RAPTURED. From what I’ve heard it’s really painful and the surgery is awful and you have to were those special belts and jocks…I’ll never lift weights again. Promise.
Bill, Yes, we are in a mess right now, but voters will get a chance to correct that in 2010. If the economy continues to tank, the Dems may lose enough seats in Congress to derail some of the absurd “stimulus” spending before it fully kicks in. President Obama remains very popular, but he admits the deficit keeps him awake at night. Even if the economy starts to improve, all that borrowed debt and printed money is going to mean massive inflation, and many of us remember what that did to President Carter and the Dems in the election of 1980..
The real concern for me is what the alternative will be. In W’s second term, Republicans acted more like Democrats when it came to spending, and no one has emerged to lead the Party back to fiscal responsibility and national prominence. Maybe the next year and one-half will see someone emerge for the GOP, but in the meantime,let’s hope that some of the blue-dog Democrats will stand up to the Obama spending juggernaut and yell STOP!!
Anyone know who was the last President to balance the budget??
