I don’t think our children will enjoy the same freedom we’ve had

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

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.

 I get a lot of emails from folks to write to my congressman, my senator, let the president know what I think, and stuff like that.  The difficulty is that as well meaning as those folks are they just haven’t gotten it into their heads that it is too late for those games.  Obama has the national debt at $11.5 trillion, and he has every intention of continuing the push via the Nancy Pelosi budget to bring it to 18 trillion. 
This is for the well meaning, Christian, conservative men and women so they can get a sense of reality here.  In a couple of years when the national debt is $18 trillion, and the population is around 300 million every man woman and child in the country will owe $18 trillion / 300 million people.  That is $18,000,000,000,000/300,000,000 = $60,000 debt for every man woman and child in this nation.  Each family has an average of 2.5 children, so we can see that each family of about 4.5 come up with an average figure of around $270,000 of national debt that they owe (time to tax).

 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.

 Oh come on Bill, you are just to negative!  Am I, I don’t think so?  I sat at a table eating breakfast with two successful business men.  They were perplexed about their portfolios; they had just taken about a 35% hit.  Would they have the retirements they had planned to have?  I told them plainly, I did not know a safe haven for their remaining money. 
As basic as all this is I know some bight eyed people will jump up and say, “Oh that is not right, and you just don’t understand”, or maybe give me an inspired “You just have to trust.”  Those folks are optimists, aka lemmings.

Bob: I voted for McCain. I had no illusions that he would carry out the policies I wanted, but I knew he was a loyal American and would not basically end life as we know it. As for the Dr and Magnum, very seldon do I disagree with anything they post, and don’t think you have any room to talk given the absolute brain dead libs on this site. Do you separate yourself from any of them?

Doubting..

Do you remember a day or two ago when you said that because of Obama’s comment about special olympics you felt that Obama saw the children has being subhuman?

Dr-Debunk said

Sorry, Bob, if you are disabled, but the nonsense is over-bearing, and life is too short to bandy twisted logic with s— stirrers like you.

For arguments sale lets say I am disabled.

So Doubting… you must be so proud of having conservatives who do not believe that the disabled as noted by Dr-debunk, are capable of making a reasonable argument. This must be a glorious day for the conservative movement knowing that they have such people on their side.

Doubting..

As a matter of fact I have taken some to task when I read their comments and believe that they went to far. I have done this more than once. Seldom do I endorse any of their comments even if I agree.

So are you proud what Dr-debunk said about the disabled. So what does that make of the conservatives if they can insinuate such statements about the disabled?

By the way I have to go so I will not be responding back on your thoughts.

dr and Doubting

The nightmare started on Jan. 20, at noon, and it just keeps getting worse.
I told HKCHAS, I would try and stop calling these libs names. So far I have been able to handle it. But by golly. it is getting harder.

By the time Bob finally opens his eyes, China will own this country, if the borrowing continues. Big brother will be in charge of every industry, that is if any are left, and the states will have no rights left. Gubberment will dictate every little detail of our lives and give out stipends for their amusement. Just can’t wait until they come for my guns, cause they ain’t agonna get em. I would rather be dead, than live in a socialist utopia.

Bob: I believe you edited that comment. I did notice it, and I think the Dr was wondering if you were disabled, therefore able to blog almost full-time. I don’t speak for him, don’t know him from Adam, but that was my take. Anyway, I really speak for myself, and I don’t see anything honorable about watching our country go in a direction not even imagined just months ago while being silent and watching it. I don’t see anything honorable about not voting against the man intent on sending us to the third world. Right or wrong, I voted for Bush and McCain, and still fell a sense of honor.

Thanks, Bob, for proving my point. Your twisting of other’s words is one thing, but the ineluctable drip, drip, drip of your banality is mind
scorching.

Doubting-

No, it was a sincere thought about disability. Bob shows symptomatic behavior, and didn’t want to criticize him without pre-emptively apologizing for any potentiality.

Have been formerly engaged in arguments with him that just went around and around in endless circles of twisted words, logic, reasoning, and synapses. So just doing a public service to those so occupied.

Doubting…

I know I was planning on being gone but I checked as I was headed for the door. I cut and pasted his comment, no editing, you can check by going back and reading his comment as he posted it.

So where in there did he mention volume? So you are endorsing his comment?

Do not be so stupid to think that I would change the wording when it would be so simple to go back and read the original post. That is really kind of stupid to think that I changed it.

he says that I twisted his words. I have to assume since once again he says nothing, because he offers nothing, that he means that I twisted his words to suggest the he thinks the disabled are sub human. If his argument is correct then is not the same true about what you said about Obama?

So lets summarize. Even though he mentions nothing about volume but does mention logic, you twisted it to mean volume. Obama bad for insinuating anything about the disabled, yet conservatives are good for doing the same. You can easily go back to check the exact posting by the dear doctor, but it is easier to suggest I changed the quote without checking.

Once again the conservatives show that they will read into anything what they wish in order to support their position.

See ya tomorrow. Have fun reading into peoples posting anything that helps you get through the day.
