A very pleasant good morning and hello to you, Ali –

I am the early bird this morning and definitely enjoy Sean Hannity – double treat already with you on an hour early plus Sean. I guess we taxpayers paid top dollar for the Obummer and wife plus 500 aides’ vacation – aren’t we a generous lot of people, though Mr. Prez doesn’t speak highly of us financing his vacation, not very gracious of him. C ‘mon Sean, tell it like it is!

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Good morning Alisyn and All. I woke up early and saw F&F on already. Alisyn you look great as always. I remember during the election Joe Biden told us that Obummer would be tested. He said you wouldn’t understand our response and to stick with us no matter what the poills showed. Is this the test he was refferring to? John

Good morning to you too! I’m glad to see you all on an hour early even if it is for the dreadful news of the N. Korean rocket launch.

Oh and I look forward to seeing Sean Hannity too. Ask him about what Mike Huckabee said about Obama apparently believing the Reverend Wright and hating America. Gov. Huckabee said it somewhere on your show recently.

OH, and people seem to forget that Obama has absolutely no experience with being a leader. Not that I am excusing him at all for what he does/says but I’m just not surprised is all.

In Obama’s speech – condemning the rocket launch – why didn’t we shoot it down then?!

Obummer talks big and smart but will he back up his tough talk? We will see.

Darn Ali, doesnt North Korea understand the reprocussions when they make you lose an extra hours sleep? Oh well their is the restful chair in the gym.

Anyone wanting to sign the petition against Obama getting an Honorary Degree can go to Notredamescandal.com and sign. I also sent a letter to the White House and asked him to withdraw.

Ed

Good morning Ms. Alisyn,

Starting without us? You should have called or something.

Not at all surprised that NK has defied us again. All you have to look at the past 50 years and you’d see that everything we have entreaty for has been ignored us once they got what we promised them.

It’s happened over and over again.

Morning Betty, C A, Ed and John.

chas

Good morning chas, I was rattling around earlier with the coffee maker, trying to wake you!

I try never to get out of bed before 6:30 on the weekends.

chas

Alisyn needs a reverse 911 system to alert us to early starts. A personal would be so much sweeter. Put us on your speed dial. LOL

Morning!!

The President called upon the UN for sanctions against N K for the launch. I hate to break this to you Mr. President but sanctions are ineffective against dictatorships. They don’t work because sanctions mostly hurt the people and since dictators could care less about the people there is no pressure against the dictators.

No matter what you do, the dictator is always just fine. If you think I’m wrong, look at how effective sanctions have been against Iran.

chas

Good morning Alisyn,
I am up and I have my cupa. Korea has launched it’s missile. I guess no one should be surprised at all.

Did I just hear you say Obutthead must get the boot,some say? I will personally offer the use of my Fireboot that still has the dirt of ground zero on it!!

Good idea John, or at least mass e-mails….lol Morning Eileen.

Dang just spent time with a nice post and the moderator ate it for breakfast.

chas

Must be a conspiracy chas, with them rejecting your posts – you know how that goes.

Obummer fired the moderator A conspiracy in deed

MASS EMAILS??? OMG…Chas, you KNOW I never chk my emails!!! But, I am always sad when I miss a minute of Alisyn.

Hey Alison. Up early and just caught the segment on home business scams. Your guests list MLM as a scam. Not more than a minute later, your show ran a commercial for the second largest (behind AVON) MLM, Amway. The fact is MLM is NOT a scam, it is a legal and highly effective way of marketing products word-of-mouth. I would agree with your guests that some companies do things you people should be cautious about, but there are a number of legitimate companies with high integrity that present serious income opportunities for those that want to build a business part time from home.

Thanks,

Bret

Good Morning Alisyn
and everyone.

G ‘morning Sal -

It should not shock you,,,,, it is Written!!

Father Morris is right, he is campaigning for in 2012.

It shouldn’t surprise you Sal. Clinton did the same thing.

chas

Morning, Betty, Chas, Gini, Ed, John, Eileen.

Sanctions don’t work against dictatorships. Iran is a good example.

chas

Yes, your right Chas.

With 2 noses I imagine the rabbit smells very good…

chas

Good morning Sal,
The sun is up and shining today, at least. I haven’t looked to see what the temp is supposed to be. They promised snow showers for Monday tho, and I am hoping it goes on by. lol

Good Morning All,

Not only did I miss out this morning,,,,, I had a real difficult time getting here.

Snow Gini?

Good Morning Alisyn and All. I just sat here & said what I wanted to say & then hit the refresh button!!! Shows what happens when you Haven’t had enough coffee!!! So if that post shows up without a quick proof read please don’t laugh!
In short—Someone needs to get one of those big hooks & haul Obummer off the world stage before completely embarrass the American public! Guess the world now knows just how afraid & what he thinks of Obama—Not!!! As for that bunny ” Double twitch”

I know Gini, but its suppose to be sunny today,then rain and snow on monday.

That’s correct Chas..sanctions don’t work. There are no repercussions, so why would he care at all?

A bunny with 2 noses and a president with multiple faces. Aren’t we lucky?

Yes Betty!!! That’s what the weatherman said…snow showers w/rain, on Monday, yuk! I am hoping it blows over us, of course, and it doesn’t turn that cold! lol

John And we wonder why Korea thumbed their nose? NO surprise at all. lol Good one!!!

Gini, there saying that we are suppose to get up to 8″ of that pure white stuff—-YUK! Have to go back out & cover back up some my gardens! Oh how the energy companies love this $$$$!

Colleen,

I fear it’s too late to stop the embarrassment. I shudder every time Oblabber goes overseas and makes a speech.

What a shame that the world believes that he speaks for all Americans.

He does NOT speak for me !!!

Good morning Alisyn and the rest of all of you here…

I must say as an American, I am very disappointed in the president. His coaching, speeches, his ‘arrogance,’ lack of respect for the presidency and other world leaders were disgusting can you imaging touching the Queen, every one knows not to do that, who the heck does he think he is, ahh a legend in his own mind…yeah that’s it. Some how we must keep him away from cameras and microphones and have him stay in the oval room where no one can hear or see him and where he has no influence on any current events or spending. We have 4 more years of this?? Help! While President Bush has contributed to this and must own some of what’s happened, but now, now we move in to socialism? I’m more concerned about my daughter and police officer, son-in-law and their future…

Good morning Colleen,
Before he embarrasses the citizens? I think you are right, but I’m afraid he already has done just that…for sure.

He does not talk for ME either!!!

Gary, I wish we could have someone behind him one of those rating charts that show the reaction of the American public to show just how we feel when he opens his mouth, really need it when talks without a prompter! He just figured out that other country’s have the brains to build a bomb–GeeWiz!

Good morning Gary,
Someone forgot to turn the puter off last nite, so my usual wait for it to “think” was dramatically shortened. I’m very glad you got here, unscathed! lol

Seems to me Bush was piled upon for talking about Iraq pretty much the same way The President is talking about N K.

Funny how there is no cowboy talk now.

chas

Morning all,

Me, please don’t defame your boots by letting them come in contact with Odenier. They are too sacred for that!

Good Morning Gini,

Hopefully, that snow is going to stay south of us & we’ll just get cold and wet.

But it will be ugly just the same.

Colleen,
I’ll stop complaining abt the possibility of a bit of “snow showers mixed w/rain”, then!!! You are in for a “snow storm” would seem, and that is yuk!
At least our “cowboy prez” struck a bit of fear in the hearts of those that would do us harm. This prez’s biggest threat is that he might talk them to death? with or w/o the prompter!!! oh my my my…

Okay I know that violence begets violence–however now the N.K. has launch the missile why doesn’t the rest of the world summit say okay goofy guy we just pointed all of missile @ you & sit back & see just how fast this guy shuts his down!

That was toooooo Funny!!!! I laughed so loud it echoed in here ROTF

Good Morning Alisyn and everyone on the blog this morning.

Well, I see Obummer is campaigning in Prague. His teleprompter I see is working very well this morning and he is dictating that something must be done to stop North Korea. Just words.

Like I said yesterday, the “one” is doing very well over there and he should just stay.

Obummer & Co. in no way represent me – I am ashamed to have the jerk represent my precious U.S. of A. – Laura Bush was the ultimate First Lady, no comparison between her and the present Missus O.

True Gary…guess I’ll have to dig them thar boots out one more time!!! lol

Colleen, I don’t think Oblab has ever played poker and tried to bluff anyone.

I hope it’s not Twitter LOL Clayton

I don’t think anyone should be shocked at what comes out of Obama’s mouth…I mean come on…look at the past weeks…look at how he has reacted to almost everything since the beginning and even before his term…I don’t think we should just excuse everything…and start the…oh that’s just what he does….but surprised…or shocked…no. I think you react in much more intelligent way, when you are not surprised or shocked….

Gini, your to funny!!!! For I’m sure he really could talk someone to death! Hey We should send Obummer–Blaba over there & do just just that! One problem though they might not let his teleprompter in! And that would really drive him over the edge of reason!

Take 2 ::::::I hope it’s not Twitter

Good morning Alisyn, and everyone here at the greenroom blog! It is far too late to worry about the president embarassing us. He’s done that so many times since Jan 20, I’ve lost count. But then to go overseas and say we’re arrogant? From the most arrogant man to hold that office yet? That’s the icing on the cake so far, but I fear he will be busy baking more cakes to ice in the next 1385 days and 16 hours and 45 minutes. (thanks to the dog for those numbers!)

Good morning c.g.,
No one is surprised at all, as this man has always spoken w/forked tongue. lol

I know Chas,
Obama sends 20 thousand troops to Afghanistan and the MSM doesnt say anything about it,
if it was President Bush, theywould said, there go’s the cowboy, he’s at it again.

Laura Bush not only looked like a classy First Lady, she acted like a classy First Lady.

I don’t believe she ever put her arm around the queen.

Hillary played fast and loose with numbers? Well whodda thunk?

chas

Laura Bush was genuine, the real deal – someone who I was proud to have represent me any where, any time.

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Hey Frank, if O sat down with my brothers & played poker or anyone he lose Why? Those that really white toothy ready @ a drop of hat smile would make him lose every time! In fact it would be his greatest tell sign!

I just never saw him going overseas..and throwing his weight around…he is too much of a smooth talker for that…he is going to try to make nice…and no we shouldn’t charge in like a bull but there something to about silence being deadly(i am thinking Dirty Harry..he didn’t ever have to say much..lol)…or is it golden…I will go with both.

Chas! Our Hill tell a fib? You gist, of course. ~~giggle~~ oh my my my! What a group we have over thar, in Washington these days. The world, which is already dangerous, has become more so w/this crew in charge. hum? lol

President Bush should have used a telepromter. Thats why the MSM didn’t like him. Geez he would have been loved by everyone

Laura Bush was ALWAYS proud to be an American, too bad the same can’t be said for Mrs Osleveless.

Did Alan Colmes get new contact lenses or something?

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Dem apologists just make my head spin!!!!!!!!

John, too bad we did not figure that a lot sooner….

Good morning everyone. Alisyn…..and hour earlier….and me sleeping an hour later…oh well. With the blowing snow, bed was the place to be this morning in western Kansas.
Of course North Korea launched their missile, and China is smiling.

I am sick of “our” president ragging on our country! Obama has me very glad I am old and won’t be around for too much of the repercussions of his actions. How many zeros in a TRILLION???

But Combs fails to add that every Country in NATO turned the President down as far as sending troops to Afghanistan to fight.

So much for playing nice and how well “loved” this hope and change is going to be welcomed over there.

chas

President George W. bush was for real – big deal that he doesn’t/didn’t use $25 words that are phony & meaningless, I prefer honesty.

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Get Allen out of there and bring Hannity on.

Betty!!! Thankfully I cannot see the t.v. fr where I sit at the puter, and I didn’t dash over to look at the fool, hum? Poor baby doesn’t have a chance, actually, and whoever is “helping” him in the area of “looks” needs new glasses, I must think? hum? lol

Good Morning All!!!
I was busy cleaning house since 5 am so I just got online now. I read all the posts and you guys crack me up. I love BO’s new names. OBUMMER,OBLABBER,ODENIER, a pres with MULTI FACES and OBUTTHEAD…. LOLOLOL

I am surprised at all the talk of this President embarrassing the country. I haven’t seen gaffes made like the last President.

~~laughing~~ Frank!!! Mrs Osleveless…I LOVE it! lol Where is the calendar w/all the gaffs and strange things that have come out of both their mouths? I WANT MY CALENDAR!!!

Morning Ali, Clayton, Dave and Friends,
Hmmm, I don’t know diving with great whites after a breakup that my permanently solve your bad relationship blues… A 2 nose “peter cottontail”, well at least it has less faces than “Darth O’bombournation” does and the bunny ain’t hoping down the campaign trail, AGAIN!!! Hillary like Pelosi does not have a clue about guns in Mexico from America. Much less anything else she’s is out of touch with. Mexico has all our guns and we have all their illegal’s, that’s only 50% percent correct. Clayton, we need to give Mexico more aid now??? Come on Dude! Isn’t America already giving them enough support, heck most of their Olympic and Special Athletes are already here and getting free economic aid aren’t they??? After all, WE are so; arrogant, dismissive, and derisive aren’t we O’bungle!???

No gaffs? Obviously you haven’t paid much attention. Try listening when his teleprompter goes down…lol

chas

Liz, get your Snuggie out and blog with us….snow yuck…

Merle, there are usually an abundance of names for him here.

Merle, maybe we could make our OWN calendar?? And sell it!!!! YES! lol
Visitor…good morning. You haven’t? hummm…

I agree Betty, President Bush was for real.

Remember guys Joe Biden predicted a test for the Bummer. Let’s see if he really that tough now.

I agree…Bush at least seemed much more genuine, down to earth. Obama’s lil blunder regarding bowling was an unfortunate comparison…but he at least seemed human…mistakes and all. When he talks or I should say reads the prompter…well that’s just it, he needs to learn to speak off the cuff..more…he will make mistakes..but the more he does, the better he will be.

Visitor, remember you had 8 years to collect Bush’s mistakes. Oteleprompted has had less than 90 days. Watch him studder and stammer when his teleprompted is not working.

OMG Alisyn I just found your blog while doing a search . I have been a fan since your Boston days and I lost track of you.

Is this some sort of a private chat room for anti President Obama members? If so sorry to interrupt.

Alan Combs is the epitome of Obummer followers. He spends all his TV time telling people what the democrat really meant. He’s been on other shows talking “boots on the ground” from our European allys. Anyone seen any ?????

Frank C,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I loved “Osleeveless” . I might have to use it somewhere today.

CG, I agree…when you write for people or speak, you need to make sure your words are understood by the audience. The average news story is written in 8th grade words. Journalism 101.

Laura Bush was a classy First Lady.

Mrs. Obama is classy in her own way and very well educated.

Pres. Bush’s gaffes…were grammar…inventing new words….Obama…well his are Open mouth insert foot kind…Bush made us chuckle…Obama makes us hang our heads and shake them.

Does anyone remember the Dixie Chicks, & what happened when they went over seas & put Americans & Bush down? Bush had people around him that meant business that kept us all safe for 8yrs. Can’t say I feel the same safe feeling now! Miss “O”, she is really trying to be that fashion plate that Jackie Kennedy was—Sorry Ms “o” not even in the same league.

drm,

Welcome to the blog. No this isn’t a private blog all are welcome.

All points of view are welcome.

chas

GO HEELS…I do not believe those are the same two teams that met in December. MSU had several players hurt as did UNC. Gonna be a great game.

drm,
you are very welcome here! we talk about alot of things here! feel free to speak your mind too!
most of us are just so very upset with the new prez!!!!!!

drm,
Everyone is welcome here. We do have some heated discussions some days, but hopefully everyone is able to disagree in a respectful fashion. We do have a lot of fun with names for the prez, though.

I don’t care about Obama’s gaffes. It’s his neverending lies that trouble me. And his agenda for our country scares the hell out of me. And the number of Americans who feel the same as I are growing rapidly.

It would seem that our sometimes clumsy former prez, did at least know he was the PRESIDENT of the USA, and not campaigning to be RULER of the world? He did say at the beginning, if you want good prose, Laura needs to do the speaking, hum? He was definitely completely “transparent”, said what he thought, and if he wasn’t going to “tell”, he said so straight up! There was a good deal of comfort in the idea that he was a patriot, hum? lol For those that may be confused.

Visitor, I see you have used that name and it makes me wonder if you are new to this country or this blog. I can only think that maybe you choose that name to get some people upset on this blog. Go ahead, bring it on. Your views will be challenged, and your views will be welcomed. We agree to disagree.

Ogaffer has totally made major gaffes, here and abroad, and you know that.

DRM, welcome…all opinions are welcome, no matter how much they disagree with mine

Have fun

i am worried about those cars in front of the Fox studios

Ali,

The bunny and the politicians have something in common. The bunny is cute and should be protected. A politician has 2 faces and always wears the 1 that matches the audience to whom he is speaking.

Well said, Gini.

Salvatore, doesn’t seeing Allen Colmes make you even more grateful that Sean has his own show? Let freedom ring!

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Does Alisyn interact? Or is this just a chat room? I have no desire to speak my mind with anti American’s I just found Alisyn’s blog and being a long time fan thought I could say hello to her. Take care and good luck Alisyn come back to Boston we miss you! I can’t believe you got mixed up with these goons on here.

drm…I think you will find a lil bit of everyone here….

Visitor…haven’t had enough coffee to debate this morning, but please tell me you didn’t come here to make everyone see “reason”…everyone will have there opinion…and I agree Mrs. Obama is a very classy lady…and geez the whole pat on the back thing..well I figure the queen just excused her as a Yankee..enough said…lol…best wishes getting everyone on board.

Colleen, I am surprised that Mrs Ofashion does not have more classic traditional business attire.

DRM…welcome to the fun and serious too, comments fr very informed people, who thru it all, somehow keep their sense of humor. I think you will have a very good time here. Especially as an Alisyn fan! WE do love her lots!!!

Welcome drm! Glad you found Alisyn again! She has a wonderful place here, and all thoughts and opinions are as welcome as you are. Enjoy!

DRM, Ali does interact when time permits and usually posts a bunch of replies after the show. I think most of us here are classified as ALI FANS.

Well all, gotta run…will check in later…

Later all

Oh drm…oh my my my. You aren’t leaving so soon, are you? lol See ya! Bye now…have a great day!

drm,

First there are no anti Americans here. Second name calling is one of the rules and as such is discouraged.

Ms. Alisyn generally comes in and responds to various people after teh show. Even at times during the show if time permits but that is rare.

Laura Bush was a classy First Lady.

I suppose you could say the same thing about Paris Hilton or Rosie O’Donnell, or pick just about anyone.

Such a nice welcome from everyone and then we’re called unamerican and goons? Wow.

Gini,

Funny you should use the word “transparent” when referring to President Bush when that happens to be one of Oblubbering’s favorite words to abuse.

drm…..goons???? seriously do not have the energy nor patience for that…so far you have started the name calling….good luck! I am one of the nicer ones here….I should say nicer in how i get my opinions across..some here will just cut you to the core…right away…

Hi Alisyn,
Korea launches their missle and Obama can make a great tough speech about it but the only action will be at the anti American U.N. where China will veto anything meaningful and we will show our weakness.
Geraldo can continue to gush about how great the first family looks overseas while Obama apologizes for past American actions and plays fast & loose with our sovereignty as a great nation which many fought and died for.
What a shame!
Paul–Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

Well, drm, so much for being respectful, I guess.

I am watching from australia and I cant believe that americans havent woken up to how to deal with Nth Korea… the answer is so simple people… focus on China! they are backing the nth koreans so stop buying everything with a “made in china” sticker on it and watch them put a stop to nth korea testing missiles. China will not watch its economy crash just to help them. Hit them where it hurts america.. their wallets! Give the power of the all mighty dollar a go and you find that fixes the problem. In fact I cant believe you all havent done it by now… china is only powerful because 90% of the world contains things that are “made in china”.. crazy..

I know Betty, everytime Obama said something,
allan would say, this is what he meant to say, or thats not what he meant,
he used to make me so mad.

dmr,
Is this some sort of a private chat room for anti President Obama members? If so sorry to interrupt.
No we just don’t like when the President of this Great Country, that is suppose to be putting his best foot forward & representing we Americans instead puts his foot in his mouth & calls Americans arrogant! Welcome.

Nice to have you back Gorden.

No sense in gang tackling drm.. All goons will please behave yourselves.

“Transparency” and telling it “straight up” in a President might be all well and good, but I’d prefer an intelligent President.

Bye John…be safe!!! You goon you!!!

Visitor,
So would I. Wish we had one in the WH right now, but darn it, we don’t. He can read very well, however, and does lie w/great flourish, hum? lol

I like a President with common sense myself.

chas——Now where is the fun in that? I’m sitting here LOL. Maybe this new guy has never put the uniform on or anyone in his family! I think he got what he was looking for a nice warm WELCOME!!!!

I agree Visitor, I would prefer an intelligent President as well, do you know one? Because the “one” is not too intelligent when he tells foreign nations that we Americans are showing arrogance.

Clayton: Nice going getting Stevie N a Twitter account, although I think she’s best left in the 70″s, she’s had a good life and a rough life at times and seems like she wants to be left alone for now.

QUESTION: If you had a chance of living the life of a millionaire’s life for say 5 years (not doing anything illegal, just a straight up trade) in exchange for 5 years in jail, WOULD YOU DO IT?

Goons?
Aww shucks!
All this time I thought we were thugs.

Morning, Gang;

Let’s see, we and our pals can launch satellite missles all that we/they want, but if we don’t like you, it is an international affront to launch a missle? Ah…, I got it.

As long as we get part of the profits, Gary

Okay the president says rules must be followed, breaking those rules causes punishment. Hummm, what about his cabinet and them not paying their taxes; how were they punished? Indeed they were rewarded by heading the IRS? What happened here, did I blink and miss something? Obama’s double standards are obvious for all but those that surround him. His forked tongue should be burning. Indeed, his lies and him over looking of those that have not paid taxes, causes him to be punished according to his own words. Keep him away from the cameras and microphones that would be punishment for him.

Gary, ya know this morning is better then reading my e/mail jokes that I get! Sign me up!!!!!

At least a prez who isn’t confused Sal, about who and what the job might be?

Me too Gary…where do I sign? lol

This is one morning that I hope Aly spends some time reading the blog.
You folks (goons) are too much.

Whoa, did I just come across the joke of jokes?/! Sean Hannity, the utterly most arrogant of the right-wing pundits, who interrupts and cuts off all sentiments which are contrary to his state-istic, police power extremist positions, is going to issue a scold about Obama’s arrogance??? You gotta be kidding me! That’s roughly tantamount to, say, Fidel Castro chiding Saddam for his human rights abuses! Come on, Ali; are you taking the show over to Comedy Central or something?

Morning GT. Not me. Not certain I want to spend 5 years afraid to pick up the soap is worth the money.

Gary, here’s one.

Ochitonachingle

Yes Cap…you’ve got it. lol They launched anyway, hum? So, guess whether we want them to or we do not want them to, has become an NA, hum? lol As it usually is….

GT, No way.

Chas: “Morning cap, that you would have to take up with the UN. It is after all their policy.”

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

Good for Obama for saying the truth about America. We are an arrogant nation, and, guess what? Europe is an arrogant continent. The conservatives in America and the liberals in Europe, apparently even some of the conservatives there, are often self-righteous and condescending toward each other’s respective nations. Also, it is highly disingenuous of conservatives to imply that saying what President Obama did about America within America’s borders would have been any more acceptable to them; barely, if at all. And recognizing our own imperfections does not mean no one recognizes the good we’ve done.

The truth, hear me the truth, is that many conservatives don’t want criticism balanced with compliments, they want nothing but compliments, not just overseas, but in country as well.

Some conservatives are willing to admit our country is not perfect, but woe be onto the “anti-American” who dares to specify how.

I thought it was the Presidents contention that America is arrogant, not that the President is arrogant.

chas

As an independent… I often wonder how these comments and conversations would be if Obama was republican..

Morning Cap, tells us how you really feel about Hannity…lol

Cap…I hope we never “pay attn” to what the UN has to say, hum? Sean is ok, isn’t he? Why so angry with him, hum? He has an opinion, just like you do, and I do. lol

POLL QUESTION: If you could live the life of a millionaire for 5 years (not doing anything illegal, just a straight up trade) in exchange for 5 years in jail,
WOULD YOU DO IT?

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

If you mean give up the love of my kids and family for 5 years, no way!

Dog,,,

Only us military people would get that. And I loved it.

Wayne,
If he were a republican, he wouldn’t be doing the things he is doing. We already know exactly what would be said, hum? We have listened to eight yrs of “it” after all. lol

Chas: I thought it was the Presidents contention that America is arrogant, not that the President is arrogant.
=================================
Since that utterance by the president, many have been lambasting him that its utterance is further proof of his own elitist arrogance. “Arrogance is as arrogance does.” F. Gump [Er, F. Goon!]

Cap, Hannity tried to warn America about Ogaffer before the election in regards to his arrogance and his radical views. To bad a lot of Americans did NOT listen. Now look what we have leading this great country.

Transparency” and telling it “straight up” in a President might be all well and good, but I’d prefer an intelligent President.
Intelligent??? um ah ah ah . . . An intelligent would know that all the ums and ahs in general conversation only give the appearance of no confidence, fear of saying what he really feels, etc. and would have worked that flaw out of their conversations technique! I think it compares to the “Valley Girl” like. . .ya know. . .
Too bad he needs a teleprompter to speak intelligently!

cap, or perhaps tantamount to your chiding of him?
What’s that other word that begins with an H?

As an independent… I often wonder how these comments and conversations would be if Obama was republican..

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

I am a Republican against Socialism, which Obama seems to endorse.

Colleen

Hannity, just hit the nail on the head!!! Obama sounded just like he’d been sitting in Rev Wright church Way to LONG !!! Oh lets not forget the other names he has hung with!

But they did issue 17 sanctions against Iraq who refused to enforce them. I have to say I have no use what-so-ever for the United Nitwits. They are useless and have no teeth save ours.

Personally I would think that N K being able to hit Orange County would concern you.

chas

Very nicely said Sean…and who could disagree?

Then count me in also cap. Because I take offense to having my Country called arrogant by the person who is supposed to be the “face” of the Nation.

chas

Hannity reiterates his oft’repeated “How much has America done [for Europe]” garbage, and then goes on with one of his scripted rants. Good Grief!

But for the assistance of the Marquis de Lafayette during our Revolution, we would still be a colony of Great Britain, with Prince Charles residing in the White House as Governor General for his mum. But they never throw that into our face; it is only we, especially Hannity, who keep over and over yakking about how much they owe us, illustrating the Ugly Americanism which has diminished us in the eyes of other countries for decades.

That was Hannity,
if anyone wonders why he has the number one show at 9pm,
thats..why.

It appears to me that we have the first “anti-american” president. Has this man ever read a history book? Shouldn’t they make the president read the constitution? This “leader” is leading us right out of world dominence, he is rolling over with his legs in the air like my submissive dog!

Well Gini, I think with cap’s comments earlier, I think he would disagree with Hannity.

~~laughing~~ Dog!!! that is priceless, and Gary, I think we all “got it”, hum?

Good morning Mary,
Surely he would not disagree with Sean today, anyway, even if he thinks he is an elitist, arrogant, right winger, hum? What say you, Cap? lol

Cap….concerning Lafayette….remember….the enemy of my enemy…is my friend……FRance and England had beeen enemies for centuries….to was to their advantage to help America

How much has America done for Europe? Can you say L-I-B-E-R-A-T-E?? Where would they be today without us?

Hannity may have some good points, but he really needs to stop constantly rehashing things that have been shown not to matter to many..

I think we repaid the debt a few times over cap.

We also spread more actual dollars around the world than any other Nation.

We do much more than I would ever spend given the current state of the economy, but we still do it.

We do have much in the way of bragging rights.

chas

Cap…oh my my. I should have known you would feel like this. lol

Jimmy Thank you!!! Whew! lol But, Cap already does know that small detail, I am sure. lol

Looks like Alisyn has got the golf bug!!!!!!!!!

Wayne,
He should continue to remind everyone who will listen, just who this man is, that has been elected, don’t you think? It is relevant, after all, and explains his “view of the world”, I think. lol

Queen Gini….you are most welcome (he siad bowing deeply) LOL

A little thing called “The Marshall Plan” salvaged Europe after the war at incredible expense to America. We never asked for a nickle in repayment.

Snow. And here I am about to cut the grass after the show is over…lol

chas

Wayne, you used the word rehashing, obviously you have listened to Hannity. That is great, it all bears repeating what he does say. I wish more Americans would listen…………..

I have heard people call into his radio show, and tell Hannity that they now have buyer’s remorse for voting for the “one”. He is not for the hope and change that so many thought he would bring to this great country. The only hope and change that I have seen so far his the hope that he got into the White House and the change is: change of address from Chicago to DC. He is all for one……….himself.

Thanks for having us on your show this morning Alisyn! Busy day for you, what with the missile shoot, Obama’s reaction and all, but we appreciate the opportunity to talk about how to avoid work-at-home scams and our new book Undress For Success: The Naked Truth About Making Money At Home.

Working at home, as an employee, freelancer, or business owners offers people a way to escape the rat race, earn extra income, or replace their lost employment. Currently five million American’s call home their primary place of work. Another 50 million hold jobs that could be done at home.

There are legitimate home-based jobs with all-virtual employers, Fortune 500 companies, and small to medium-size businesses in a wide variety of professions. In addition, there are tons of opportunities to earn a full time income as a freelancer or home business owner. The list of work-at-home companies you post will give folks here a direct line to real jobs.

Fut don’t forget—for every legitimate work at home listing on the web, there are 20 or more that are scams. The FBI and FCC tries to police it but new scams are born everyday. Many unscrupulous marketers are using the down economy to lure unsuspecting job seekers into their nets.

“How much has America done [for Europe]” garbage”

As the grandson of a WW2 POW, I take great offense to that!
Have you no respect for anyone but yourself?
My grandfather spent a year in the capture of the Nazis so you could come on here and spew your crap and that’s how you thank he and others who did the same?

Chas: “We do have much in the way of bragging rights.”
=======================================
The question is not whether one has “bragging rights”; the question is whether one is a braggart, a quality which undermines the rights. I don’t recall Albert Schweitzer, Mother Teresa, or our dear Ali ever “bragging” about their talents and contributions, yet they all would have the “right” to do so. But exercising that sort of “right” undermines the essence which gave rise to the right.

Gini.. I never heard him constantly remind us of who Bush really was once it was the general consensus that going into Iraq was wrong.. and torture was wrong..

Good morning Jimmy…

Cap, quit posting to the jury. We all have opinions and we like to express them here.

Cap, I’ll give you that one, about bragging, but sometimes we just have to remind them.

Wayne,
But I don’t think it was wrong to go to Iraq, and I don’t think we engaged in “torture”, hum? lol So, we disagree, I guess? I do think we have a biased media, who didn’t tell anyone the truth…and now we have a prez, who doesn’t know what his job is. lol

BRAVO Dog. We sacrificed IMMENSELY during WW2, many of our brave young warriors gave their lives to liberate the lives of others around the world. SHAME on those of you for not recognizing this, and not being proud of being a Free American. There is NO OTHER PLACE like this country on Earth! (Oh, and if you can’t be proud, you are free to leave)

Perhaps if we got the respect we deserve for saving civilization as we know it it wouldn’t be necessary to remind them of it cap.

Perhaps it wouldn’t be necessary to remind them if we went back to only handing out money to those who remain actual friends.

But obviously we are not going to agree on this. I can live with that. It would be a dull world if we all agreed with me, better running, but dull.

chas

I still say—-We should point are missiles at N.K. along with the rest of the U.N. & forget all the paper work & threats & just do it! “O” well I really doubt he has the “*#*#s” to do it! At some point enough is enough! He wouldn’t & didn’t launch that missile with Bush in office but with “O” in, he just showed the world that he is not afraid of “O”!
How long do we have to live with the threat of N.K. blowing up people? Just put this guy out of commission! Sure his people would thank us!

Mary: “Cap, quit posting to the jury. We all have opinions and we like to express them here.”
==========================================
I’m the last one here to ever try to interfere with other people’s opinions on this page, either by insults, misstatements, or rudeness; you must have me confused with someone else.

Okay the president says rules must be followed, breaking those rules causes punishment. Hummm, what about his cabinet, and them not paying their taxes; how were they punished? Indeed they were rewarded by heading government departments and the IRS? What happened here, did I blink and miss something? Obama’s double standards are obvious and how he overlooks his own cabinet members. His forked tongue should be on fire. Indeed, his lies and over looking those that have not paid taxes or followed the rules should cause him to be punished according to his philosophy. Keep him away from the cameras and microphones that would be punishment for him.

Well Cap, I MUST have a piece of cake. You are making my head spin, with your spin and parsing, hum? lol

Good morning from Flyover. Have the two grandsons, so I had to make pancakes. I used Aunt Jemima mix with some secret ingredients. I am suprised that the brand is still around, what with the demise of Huck Fin, Little Black Sambo and Tar Baby.

If anyone is an authority on arrogance, it is Obummer, “the arrogant one”.

Have a Blessed day. I’m off to take the grandsons to church.

Nope cap, I am not confused. Just reading over your past posts.

Oh my goodness…yummy! Lemon Blueberry Crunch Cake, and a “fresh” cup of coffee. ~~sigh~~ Much better now!

Chas: “Perhaps if we got the respect we deserve for saving civilization….”
============================================
Wow, chas; look around – do you really see civilization? Constantly demanding “respect” and haranguing those who don’t bow low ["Obama, phone home!"] to prove their respect is its own disrespect.

Gini: what kind of cake? And eat it too?

Hi Olin…bye.

You bet Cap!!! Delish cake, and I may have another piece!!! Being an “arrogant, goon” I say, LET THEM EAT CAKE, and have a fresh cup of coffee, and everyone will feel better, hum? lol

Well this has been a very busy session today with alot LOL’s hat to say goodbye. Dad’s in the hospital so I have to go. Everyone have a GOOD GOOD Day!

bye Colleen…I hope your dad is ok. Have a safe day.

Mary, I don’t think that Hannity is confused either.

Gini: “Delish cake, and I may have another piece!!!”
==============================
Not nice…, unless you have enough to share with us all! (-:

Come sit by me cap, and you can have a piece of cake too, and a fresh cup of coffee.

I agree, Bush was real, a real idiot.
My job takes me around the world and Bush and his administration did more to destroy our relationships internationally than another president in American history.
Obama is on damage control and thanks to his predecessor he has a very long very difficult row to hoe.
What amazes me most is how bush kept his flock together even while he was slicing, dicing and feeding them to the wolves, and his leftovers still hail him.??

President Obama spoke to the French about Americans being arrogant and not realizing the contributions that Europe has made…..I ask you all; just where is Normandy Beach? How much American blood is deep in that soil?! I don’t appreciate an American-much less-my President running down America or Americans!! Why hasn’t there been more outrage at his behavior at that town hall meeting???? Thank you Becky

Yum! Thanks, Dear Gini; I needed that!

Mary,

Travelling overseas, I can tell you:

President Bush and his administration were viewed as arrogant. For this country to change/regain its reputation, President Obama offered a conciliatory message at the G-20. President Obama followed the arrogance comment up with how Europe had to accept responsibility and make changes too.

I find hope in that we’re not trying to pick a fight with everyone.

Talk might be cheap, but war is expensive.

Hey A, what’s going on the main page opinion blogs. The time sequence is all mixed up. Yours however is perfect. And such nice people.

Good morning Bryus,
Where have you been? You definitely need to come and sit by me, for a piece of cake and fresh coffee.
Our former prez didn’t walk on water, and we all knew that, and he certainly did plenty one could argue was INSANE, however, this prez DOES think he walks on water, so I think, that would be part of the argument, as well as his socialist agenda, which should have everyone concerned, don’t you think? lol

Which part of his statement do you think the French audience remembers, Visitor?

Cap

Playing all nice with euroweenies is all well and good Visitor, but what did he walk away with? Not a blessed thing. No actual help in Afghanistan, no help with his global economics plan.

So how is it that such a well loved guy can’t even get socialist to agree with his socialist plan?

Perhaps I give him too little credit, but you give him way too much.

chas

I think the question is why would I care a fig about how the “rest of the world” feels about me? I do care, however, if they think they can come on over, and be in charge? I would rather they feared me, since I know they are NEVER going to love me, hum? And that is a fact….having lived overseas also, hum?

Hi Gini, missed you and the home land, I was in Russia the last 3 weeks.
The worlds opinion is changing for the better.

Gini, did you forget already? I mean, Chris Matthews saying he had “a thrill running up his leg” when he heard Barack Obama speak. And Matthews said, “You’re not an American if you don’t cry when you hear Obama speak.”

Or “The sun glinted off chiseled pectorals sculpted during four weight-lifting sessions each week and a body toned by regular treadmill runs and basketball games.”

✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈

OH OH OH, call on me teacher!!!! I know the answer!!! Good morning Liz…hehehehehe…I now have a definite sugar high!!! wow! oh my my my! lol

I just wrote my best, and longest comment about the French….and woodpress ate it!!!!! AWG!!!!

Betty
Bryus,
Don’t hold your breath….they “lurk” ready to pounce, at the first notion we will not protect ourselves. lol

Now Jimmy…have I not carefully instructed you to copy the comment. WordPress ALWAYS eats the best ones!!!! lol {I’m practicing my smiley faces}

Gini: “they “lurk” ready to pounce, at the first notion we will not protect ourselves.”
=========================================
Uh…, who are these menacing “they”?

To all you goons out there,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Thanks for the entertainment today..

And you all have a great week !!!!!

The old warrior has never had anything nice to say about the French. Don’t actually know what happened during the war, to cause him to have such an extreme opinion, as that is not his nature. I must think it was “not nice” at all? Now, he doesn’t remember ~~sigh~~ so I will never know. lol

My Peeps, My Peeps, My Peep’els why I happen to love all the anti-american goons on here as I must be a goon too for wanting a president with no alterior egotistical motives. One who will pick us up when we are down instead of spit in America’s face. A real and honesty LEADER who will try with his heart really in it to restore peace and pride in our beloved homeland. One, who won’t enslave America even further into distant future financial bondage… A Commander with intestinal fortitude and the guts to put the rest of the world in its place when necessary. A true American willing to do what it takes to ensure constitutional liberty with freedom and justice for all! Unfortunately there has not been any national leader of this caliber in the White house in several months…

bye Gary, from one proud goon to another!!! lol

Jimmy: “I just wrote my best, and longest comment about the French….and woodpress ate it!!!!! AWG!!!!”

If you are writing something provocative, and likely to have effect, you have to write in code and not spell out names.

Russ…that abt covers it, I think?

Jimmy jump over to P&P for a sec.

Oh Cap…not true! The comments are not disposed of like that. WordPress does eat some, but you already know that!! It’s an adventure, I say!!! Will it post or won’t it….hum? IF that brilliant, copy and paste. I have lost a few “brilliant” comments along the way, as we all have. lol

As much fun as it has been with you goons, I really must get on with yard work. The season is upon us here in MD and the grass is getting tall.

Thanks to all for your company and your thoughts. I will look forward to seeing you next time. Have a great week.

Have a great week Ms. Alisyn. Get a day or two of sleeping until 6:30.

chas

Take care chas and enjoy your yard work –

Great, it was just announced that the Afghan legislature has just passed a marital law allowing husbands in effect to rape their wives – all the while we are occupying them to …, whatever, oust the Taliban, or whatever our murkey motives are.

Cap…hush now, eat your cake and drink your coffee, ok?

bye Chas…see ya later. lol

After meeting and working with the working class people of these various countries, I’ve realized it’s not the people it’s the countries leaders, including our own that promote fear and hate.
The people are just like us, in fact they are us: my grandparents are Russian and German, man do I have issues!!!

Catch you later Gini, have a few things to do – work, work, work – have a great Sunday afternoon!

F & F goons are great, yippie!!!

bye Betty…see you later, and be careful!!! lol

paranoia

baseless or excessive suspicion of the motives of others

a psychotic disorder characterized by delusions of persecution with or without grandeur, often strenuously defended with apparent logic and reason

a tendency on the part of an individual or group toward excessive or irrational suspiciousness and distrustfulness ofothers

We wear the badge of “goon”, proudly, Russ!!!

Gini, I just tried to post the definition of paranoia and it didn’t work.
This MUST be a conspiracy!!!

Bryus,
Wow! Russia…and you are home safe, I am happy to see. What a trip, I must think. lol

They’re obviously out to get you, Dog!

Bye, Mrs. Alysin, Dave, Clayton, Chas, Gary, Gini, and all… Sorry, DRM you felt you had to dis and run, WE LOVE U2! Merry Goonie GOO-GOO to all a good; afternoon, evening, and good nite. Next weekend Mates Ciao!

Hows your family tree looking, who are you hating?

Dog, I had paranoia pulled up on google yesterday, but then realized I was hours late when I was reading. Seemed appropriate then also re: missing posts.

Oh dear me, Erik!!!! They are out to get you for sure, I must think. lol

I think we fear the unknown and the governments play it BIG even ours.
My Grandparents were Russian and German I have Issues big time.

A good Goonie Goo-Goo to all this afternoon and goony nite. Next week mates, ciao! P.S. Oh, DRM you are here by Dis-Missed, Mrs. dis and run, hun… (eeble laf out loud!) ELOLOLOLOL!

I’m now initiating counter-intelligence protocol level 1.

I even missed you dogonwhack

Visitor,
War is an evil and ugly event, and we do not go easily, as a nation. We are generally pulled into any conflict, screaming and kicking the whole way. To diminish our noble efforts, in an evil world, is just not nice, do you think? Of course the world doesn’t like us, and they aren’t going to like us…we need to guard our sovereignty with out shame, and walk tall…if the world thinks that is “arrogant”, oh well, and so be it! Just who have they called, every time they have a hang nail? Good ol’ mean and arrogant, US of A, that’s who. So why are you so confused about our proud, albeit checkered fr time to time, history? We have been nothing if not diligent, in our efforts to make the “playing field” even, for our citizens, as well as the citizens of the world. lol hum?

I ask you all; Where is Normandy? France. Our American president was in France as he called us arrogant and said that we as Americans don’t understand the contributions that Europe has made. How much American blood is deep in that soil? Our American soldiers jumped off boats into the water and tried to make it onto that beach and were like target practice….I don’t appreciate my president talking America and Americans down – adding insult to injury by speaking like that in the very country where we lost so many of our brave young men!!!!

bye Russ…see you next week!! if the Lord is willin’ and the creek don’t rise!! lol

Bryus, I’m touched.
Someone bring me some tissues.

Bryus,
Too true, and “we” aren’t in charge of anything, actually. It is in the hands of “the captains and the kings”, for sure. And our destiny is in the hands of God. hum?
Are you then from Germany/Russia? Born there, or here. Were you home visiting, or on business?

Gini, you’re a very elegant writer but there is a fine line between protecting ourselves & our interest, and imposing our will on the world

Great Grand parents migrated, I was on business

Bryus insightfully observes: “there is a fine line between protecting ourselves & our interest, and imposing our will on the world….”
=======================================
And it’s a line that we frequently wander across. And not accidentally.

I still remember the broken English from grandparents and the streets of Cleveland and how familiar it was to hear in Russia, the people are the same, most of them don’t hate us.

Gini,

Great comic relief.

exactly right Bryus….that’s why we stopped Hitler and saved the world!
Cap….wordpress ate my comment again…..try watching The Sorrow and The Pity…..

As of late we haven’t been wondering across the line we’ve been marching and dictating King George style.
Why didn’t the German people stand up against Hitler?
Hindsight!

Check the timing of our entering WWII, both Japan and Germany attacked us first.

Hitler was a very eloquent speechmaker….telling the people they could be great….if they would follow him…..sound familiar?

Geez, Bryus, you sound almost too insighful and sensible and understanding to be posting here!

unprovoked attacks???? HMMMMMM World Trade Center sound familiar?

Jimmy: “Hitler was a very eloquent speechmaker….telling the people they could be great….if they would follow him…..sound familiar?”
=============================================
Except that our regime of fascism began long before the rhetorician came on the stage.

Jimmy, if we were to follow the kind of foreign policy that cap and Byrus suggest then the whole world would be speaking German right now.

Byrus, if you want to know what King George III or Hitler were really like then look at our current president.

Jimmy: “HMMMMMM World Trade Center sound familiar?”
===============================
And what nation executed that?

but you never had that problem, right Cap? re: too insightful to be posting here? LOL

Bryus,

Your opinion is shared by the majority of Americans as well as other countries.

Jimmy: I wrote “almost….”

just joking Cap….that was an easy one! LOL

And which country should we condemn or attack for these terrorist attack?
I was in Mumbai during their latest attack, should they wage war on Pakistan for terrorist attack?
Shoot first ask questions later? Bush regime.

Not Iraq, Jr. was just finishing Sr.’s war.

Hey Dog! Hitler didn’t even have a telepromter, did he???? LOL

Thanks Visitor… Glad you got a chuckle.

I never mentioned Iraq.

Willing too listen to other opinions and trying to keep an open mind.
And Alisyn, and her golf comment “that felt good can we do it again”
When is F&F golf outing?

Cap.. I never said a nation. But we all know who did it….they keep making tapes taking credit for it, and putting them on tv.

Visitor writes: “I watched and heard all of Obama’s speech. He did not run down America.”
=============================================
Come on, Visitor; don’t let facts get in the way of the rabid rightist fulminations that entertain us here!

We all watched and listened Visitor, and we all have an opinion. Ain’t it great? This is the most fun, I think? And interesting points of views, of those events seen by all, and dif opinions abt it all? In the end, we don’t have any control over any of it, do we. As a free society however, we do have the privilege of saying exactly what we think…and on this space, that is certainly the case. Have you had just the best time? I hope so.

Bryus,

Your opinion is shared by the majority of Americans as well as other countries.

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

Yeah, and the whole world hates us too.
That’s why so many of them either work their asses off for decades or even risk life and limb just to get here.
I guess it’s also why so many Americans are so eager to move abroad.
BS!!!
Why is it that the left is always so arrogant as to presume to speak for the entire nation?

Jimmy writes: “Cap.. I never said a nation.”
====================================
But absent a nation being responsible, war is not a legitimate response [and never is unless formally declared by Congress]; the response can properly sound only in criminal prosecution, not war, not invasion and occupation of other sovereign countries.

sorry Bryus…can’t pass up the chance for a good comeback….as Cap’s comment was slamming the rest of us here.

Not exactly nothing, we can change politicians until we find a good one and than only hold onto them for 8 years.
manditory rotation is good

If OBSer didn’t insult America then what would you call it?
Go ahead and offer up your politically correct leftist term.

I missed that sorry Cap, have at it.

Liz K,

The part of Obama’s statement remembered by the French: That we all need to accept responsibilities and make changes too.

Diplomacy is not a bad thing.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

It is this type of ignorance such as not understanding the difference between a nation and a right wing religious fundamentalist group attacking our country that lead us into Iraq with flags a-wavin and hearts filled with pride as we invaded a nation for no just cause.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I fear ignorance will again prevail Bryus. I doubt many here could point to Mumbi on a map let alone have an intelligent discussion on the latest attack.

Capmotion is correct Bryus you need to be posting elsewhere your intellect is lost here.

Cap….I never said a nation or any particular country…or that I supported invading any country…..I don’t know where you are getting that????
But if a pack of wild dogs comes into my yard and attacks my family….I will hunt them down….where ever they try to hid……even in someone else’s yard!

Bryus,
Why would you be surprised to discover that people are just people? That’s why it is always said, the “captains and kings” should have to duke it out, and the winner takes all. hum? Wars are declared by “governments”, orchestrated by the “generals”, and fought by the “peasants”, hum? But, war is necessary fr time to time, to keep evil fr over taking the world….so cap, you can parse all you wish, but it doesn’t make you correct, hum?
Bryus, war is evil and ugly…one would prefer that everybody play nice. lol

going to lunch….have a good day all….

[...] mention on Alisyn’s blog with a plug for LiveOps.com, AlpineAccess.com, SupportSpace.com, Tutor.com, TeamDoubleClick.com, [...]

“But absent a nation being responsible, war is not a legitimate response ”
If that’s the case then we should invade Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia as well.
They’re all state sponsors of terrorism and thus responsible.

We are arrogant and have the right to be arrogant, I’ve been escorted out of restaurants, airports, & kicked off a train sticking up for America and unfortunately Bush, (he was part of the package at the time), and now it’s much easier, we are perceived as being more open mined.

It must really bug those who are so much more intelligent that the anti-american goons enjoy freedom of speech, too. And it’s always amusing to me that those who disagree are always less intelligent.

But if a pack of wild dogs comes into my yard and attacks my family….I will hunt them down….where ever they try to hid……even in someone else’s yard!”
================================================
Good, I’m glad that I misunderstood you; too many here, and elsewhere, rationalize our illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan [like Cheney and Bush and Rumsfeld early on did] on the pretense that they were responsible for various terroristic acts, and continue that rationalization by bringing in the earlier world trade center thing and the Cole thing, and I thought that was where you were going, or had gone.

I agree re packs of dogs, and I would hunt them down wherever and exterminate them…, but I would not pretend such invites invasions and occupations of people not involved.

Ooops…, Palm Sunday stuff; gotta go. You all be safe and have good week.

Hi Sterling…I am coming over, of course, but have been having a good time here. I have observed the same thing, and it’s too bad really, as this is just such a nice blog, I think. Really smart and interesting citizens come to chat, and I always have just the best time. Every now and then, there are a few that don’t want to chat at all, but just wish to “call everyone out”, I think? They are not having as much fun tho, and add nothing to the conversation…prob a reflection of who they are? lol

You have to admit when someone thinks the 9/11 attacks were a justification for invading Iraq or that Iraq was a “back yard” for the right wing murders: that is just plain ignorance. We shouldn’t be in Afghanistan. I disagree with President Obama’s policy.

bye Cap…see you next week.

Chas,

This President has much damage to resolve in foreign affairs. Two months in office and one G-20 conference can’t solve that. He is off to a conciliatory start, however. He set a good tone according to the pundits I’m reading.

I hope your not talking about me Gini
That would break my heart.
remember the twevelve days of christmas?

We are less likely to be attacked or targeted if
How do you spell twelve, can a finger stutter?

inthemiddleman…I don’t think we went to war w/Iraq over 9/11. We “invaded” Afghanistan, over 9/11, as I recall. Iraq was named as a “conspirator” for harboring “terrorists”, with full knowledge of their intent. We did not go to “war” over that, however, if I recall correctly. We went back into Iraq, because they broke the peace agreement they made w/”the world”, when we went over to help Kuwait. Now, you could argue that we shouldn’t have helped Kuwait, when Iraq invaded them, but you must recognize the lack of cooperation fr Iraq, when the “war” was held at a “cease fire”, if they would comply. They {Iraq} in “his arrogance” of it all, told the world to “shove it”, and then hid in a hole, now didn’t he? Sure…hum? lol

No Bryus!!! I am talking abt the citizens that come here and are just mean spirited, honey. I love the people who come here, like you and the rest, who love the conversation, and are smart! lol

~~laughing~~ Yes, a finger can “stutter”, Bryus! Too funny!!! lol

We had every right to invade Iraq as Saddam violated the terms of the cease fire agreement.
That’s all the justification we needed, PERIOD!
Anyone who argues otherwise has absolutely no understanding of international law as laid out by the UN wimps who didn’t even want to enforce their own rules.

*I do believe, however, that the “captains and the kings”, gave Iraq the “nod” to invade Kuwait, and then did a huge, ooooopppppssss!! Didn’t mean you could really INVADE, big guy. lol Hussein was a monster, and I am glad he is gone fr this world. hum? lol

I’m a two finger typist, occasionally I’ll try more but just lose control.
Gotta go, Jr. wants too play ball, sunny and warm here in Cleveland, that doesn’t happen here this early, will change soon.

Dosvadanya all

It will change tomorrow Bryus!!! Rain and snow showers they said, for Monday. Boss just called, and the puter crashed at work, so things are getting a bit dicey, for sure! hehe! oh well, and so it goes. Be safe, and see you next weekend. lol I don’t want you to “go somewhere else”, ok? lol

Sayonara (sp?) friend!

Where else is there?

Yes Gini,

To paraphrase, walk softly and carry a big stick

Start with diplomacy.

If the children are still then bullies on the global playground, use your big stick.

inthemiddleman…you have a lot to say, for being so uninformed.

Visitor…I am in complete agreement with you. lol

Bryus

Ladies & Gentleman in the immortal words of Rodney King; “Can’t we just all get along???” HMMMMMM, I am suprized that O’bunlgler did’nt use this quote in his speech to the world about N.K. today? Bungler grow some real balls pal, and asks Michelle for your kitchen pass why don’t yah? I don’t know about the rest of you Peeps but, I like cowboys, alhtough Bush Jr. wasn’t my favorite one but, it sure would be nice to have good old Ronnie back in charge about now he’d know what do with those N.K. Commies and just what to say to the snobbish “Euro trash” crowed too! Nancy was far too classy for Michelle to emulate anyways, just look at her choice in men. Total O’bummer magnent! Geez I nap just a little while this blogs get really viscious, “it’s like a jungle sometimes, ya know, ya know…”

Michelle’s choice in men that is… derrrrrr! ELOLOLOLOL!

Hi Russ…I am outahere, as I do have a few things I should try to do anyway, other than play here. hum? Dad is taking a little power nap, woke up briefly, and wondered where he was. Doesn’t recognize a thang! I did chg his room around a month ago, so no surprise. He does recognize me, however, so that’s all that matters. Need to dash! Lively conversation, I think, on the most part Russ..not so much “vicious”? And some are more informed than others, of course. It’s always fun tho, I think? Everyone views the same events, and comes away w/all dif points of view…what was said, what was meant…etc. lol I LOVE IT, I say!!!! I need some real food now, I think. That “cake” isn’t sitting well about now. lol hehhee!

If I may beg the audience of her highness, I would humbly suggest that cake is, perhaps, not the best choice for breakfast.

I think you are absolutely right about that Erik. That’s what I get for being so “arrogant”, I think? hehehehe!!! Oh my goodness! lol

Gini, jump over to P&P.

I’m on my way Erik…lol

“…Have you had just the best time? I hope so. ”

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

Yes. It has been entertaining. I think I’ll come back.

Thanks for asking.

“But absent a nation being responsible, war is not a legitimate response ”
If that’s the case then we should invade Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia as well.
They’re all state sponsors of terrorism and thus responsible.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

One mans terrorist is another mans revolutionary.

I will look forward to seeing you next weekend then, Visitor.

Question Middleman,
Ahhhh, which one is O’bombUS???? It’s not communist revolution is it??? He highly respects the Islamic Cartel hmmmmm,
and he let the lnown Jihadist at GITMO go free, maybe he’s the other bad guy then????

All are welcome Visitor.

I can not and will not subscribe to your interpretation of historical fact, but I will defend your right to express them. I also promise you a calm exchange without name calling.

The problem with your world view of damage is that it is their view of damage. People that are willing to get kicked around for the sake of just getting along, aren’t worth listening to.

I’d like to know what you thought about going to Bosnia. Just as a point of historical reference.

chas

If one doesn’t know the difference between a “terrorist” and a “revolutionary”, the conversation becomes impossible, I think? Actually, I don’t think, I actually know that to be so. hum?

Gini,

Revolutionaries don’t attack other Countries. Nor do they sponsor such attacks. Just a thought.

Inthemiddleman, seems not so middle after all.

chas

Gini, I think someone is wearing a Che shirt.

Would seem you are right Chas. Ha! Erik!!! I’ll be right back over thar…got thrown off!!! lol

That very cute two-nosed bunny would be a fitting pet for our two-faced President. Please ask PETA to close their ears if you air this. They will definitely be angry if they truly care for innocent animals.

P.S. you will find my commentary occasionally sent to our leaders and the left press tagged

Ali, you are so good with the news on the weekend. What can we do to get you on during the week on FNF? You are so much better, not to mention hotter than anyone at Foxnews. By the way you were looking stunning on Sunday morning. Youre the only reason I wake up at 4 am on the west coast to watch FNF. Ill start a petition if I have to.

It’s the end of sandbag duty and back to the books for Fargo students who missed almost two weeks of school to help their city fend off a potentially disastrous flood.

Classes were canceled as the students joined the round-the-clock sandbagging effort to protect the Fargo area as the Red River pressed against the city’s levees. They prepared to go back to the grind on Monday.

**********************************************************************************
And so you prove my point exactly. And by taking my comment out of the context of the coversation in which it was given, what exactly is your point?

Lorbe 103,
Good luck tonight with MSU, I hope they win for you.

Hey Allisyn –

Why can’t there be four people on Fox&Friends? I think you need to be on the show during the week too. (Come on. you don’t really need a day off!) I like Gretchen okay,but she is not you.

USA arrogant? Apparently, the Obama’s missed the Normandy beaches during their visit. The French would all be speaking German today if it were not for this country’s “arrogance”. Please someone give Obama a copy of Saving Private Ryan to watch during his next visit to France. Americans sacrificed to save this worthless country in 1944. The USA needs a leader, not a pushover that apologizes without need.

Federal officials confirmed Monday they found traces of salmonella in a central California pistachio processing plant that sparked a nationwide recall of the nut.

The Food and Drug Administration said state and federal inspectors discovered the bacteria in “critical areas” at Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, Inc., the second-largest pistachio processor in the nation.

All should read Thomas Sowell’s cogent encapsulization of what we have become and where we are:

http://townhall.com/columnists/ThomasSowell/2009/04/07/random_thoughts?page=full&comments=true

One of Dr. Sowell’s most perceptive points, a message as applicable to our pundits as to their politicians, is:

“Perhaps the scariest aspect of our times is how many people think in talking points, rather than in terms of real world consequences.”

A bad idea becomes a plan only when it does not adversely affect the planners.

So true Olin…the “planners” can get snared in their own “bad plan” though, so it is always wise to not do a bad plan at all, one might think? That said, one continues to wonder what on earth our congress is thinking!!??? lol

I really don’t know how to accomplish it, but I have an idea. Make an amendment to the Constitution that says “Congress may borrow no money unless each member that approves the borrowing signs on as a responsible party, thus relieving the American people the burden of repayment”.

About the Congressional ass-kissers in Cuba. If kissing up to the Castros was such a good idea, why didn’t Jimmy Carter or Bill clinton do it? Since when do congressmen and congresswomen have the authority to make any concessions to foreign governments?

Marc Shannon says he trusts the two-week-old sandbag dike behind his south Fargo house, but that didn’t stop him from asking a passing survey crew for some help as he prepared for a second crest of the swollen Red River.

Shannon wanted to know how high waters would have to creep to flood the first floor of his house. After surviving a record-setting crest at the end of March, he and other weary Fargo residents were hoping their sandbags can handle another round.

2 problems with that Olin. 1. to borrow on the credit of the US is a enumerated power of Congress under the Constitution and 2 One Congress cannot bid another. In other words the debt would be passed on to the next Congress then they would have to sign.

Can’t do that.

Cap could go into greater detail I’m sure.

chas

The President needs to look around our country and open his eyes,
and see that this is a Christian Nation, he says this is a country of citizens,
yes, citizens of Judeo Christian Values, Christianity
thats what this country was establish by and is the foundation of the United States of America.
Happy Easter my friends.

You are right Chas. I was only having a late night venting before retiring to bed. Surely there is a way to put a stop to all this insanity short of the next election. I am hopeful that we will see the true spirit of America prevail.

About the pirates. We can still hang them, can’t we? Or do we merely give them a pat on the butt and tell them to go and sin no more? That should put a stop to that nonsense.

For Obummer to say that this is not a Christian nation indicates, to me, that he is no Christian.

Regarding chas’s comments in response to Olin, the fact that a power of Congress is contained in Art 1, section 8, does not mean it cannot be changed/conditioned by amendment. But I do fully agree with the second part of his comment. But to Olin, the answer is not further enactments, but instead to heed the current ones. Things are utterly out of control because we have not elected people who understand that the national government was intended to be a limited government, and limited to the powers granted it and enumerated; the national government has no “inherent” power – it has only what it was expressly given. The problem is how to get that across, both to voters and to the people voted in, and then to enforce it. But additional constitutional enactments to address problems which are spawned from failure to enforce the current ones makes no sense and would be utterly ineffective – and the one Olin proposes would not get past the Art. V minefield anyway.

Thanks Cap. Have a nice and Blessed day.

Some interesting, and disturbing, quotes to mull over before the weekend.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism,’ they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened. I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democratic Party has adopted our platform.” Norman Thomas, six time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America, 1944.

“I once said ‘We will bury you’ and I got in trouble. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel, your working class will bury you.” Nikita Kruschev

“Economics is a subject that does not greatly respect one’s wishes.” Nikita Kruschev

“The press is our chief ideological weapon.” Nikita Kruschev

Was he a prophet of our downfall?

Olin, here are some more.

Education is a weapon whose effects depend on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed. – Stalin

America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within. – Stalin

We can’t expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism. – Khrushchev

DogOnCrack

The list goes on and on, but it seems history is meaningless to those now in charge.

Thanks cap. I wrote that at work and as such, can’t really spend much time.

chas

chas, the stuff you toss together in passing from work is far more lucid, thoughtful, and attentive to right-minded fundamental principles than stuff many others labor over for extensive periods.

I think Obummer needs a good dose of humility. Perhaps some time reading Proverbs would be helpful to “the great one”.

AeroMexico is returning international flight service to New Orleans for the first time since Hurricane Katrina.

Beginning July 6, the airline will offer one direct, nonstop flight, Monday through Saturday, to Mexico City that will continue on to San Pedro Sula, Honduras. AeroMexico will use 50-seat regional jets for the two-hour flight to Mexico City.

During a news conference Tuesday, Mayor Ray Nagin said the flight will be a boost to both tourism and business and provide for easier travel for regional residents who have family ties with Mexico and Honduras.

Why is Marcus Littrell and the murder of his puppy/therapy dog not being covered? This needs to be heard. Those men involved do not deserve a place on this earth!

Right You all are my Fellow American-Christian Patriots, GOD BLESS AMERICA,
Darth O’pressUS doesn’t know the first thing about Christianity in this country because he never really denounced Islam in the first place. Not even when he married Michelle & started going to Jeremiah Wright’s racist Church. Remember he said he started attending this church with Michelle and the kids he never said he was; saved, born again, or became a Christian at JW’s church. Islam it was his sacred birth right first, he cannot denounce it and live…

What does; Nero, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Lenin, Khrushchev, Castro, and Chavez all have in common with our current President Commander and Chief B.H. Obama? They all have had or have very similar; Political rhetoric, Governmental propaganda, Socialistic doctrine, charismatic dogma, ulterior ideals, relative values, situational morals, and temporal ethics…

Hence, Obama is facilitating the necessary change in American constitutional politics, and culture of ushering us in to be aligned with the Socialist structure of Europe and its ultimate “Illuminist goals” of a One World; Government, Court system, monetary system and so on… Hence, comes the New World Order and its forerunner heralding the arrival on scene of the “United New World Messiah”, a.k.a. the Anti-Christ. Simply conspiracy or stark reality only time shall reveal? Check out “oak grove” on u-tube and decide for yourself if you dare…

Still not convenced? Carefully, U-tube the “guide stones” and see what comes up?

The guide stones are in Elberton GA…

A tornado struck a small Arkansas town on Thursday night, killing three people, injuring at least 24 and seriously damaging about 100 homes, emergency officials said.

Mena, near the Oklahoma state line, suffered a direct hit that destroyed at least 10 businesses, including city hall and two churches, Polk County emergency coordinator James Reeves said.

Come on Biden whats wrong with you, should we just ask President Bush about this?

This is a fabulous video and even though a bit long (6 minutes) it is WELL worth watching and passing on. Somehow those of us with conservative principals absolutely have got to get more “radical” or we’re going to lose our country. I hope the link works. If not, just copy and paste into your browser.

==================================
Rove will command Bush to say it never happened, so that’s what Bush would say. Nothing new there.

Today, on a major cable network, viewers learned that “normal” people are finding jobs in about about 5 months. But, the announcer added, “seniors can take up to 10 months!” Yesterday, I received an email from an educational service abroad that said: “If you are over 55, it will be quite difficult for you to find a school (for me to teach English as a second language) but we can try.” The picture of me is current and I do teach reading part-time to 6th and 7th graders, and I have an extensive international background. So I realized that there must be something abnormal about us seniors and created this blog to find out why we have lost our value when we hit at least 55. It is time we are allowed to continue to contribute to society. Like most of you, I am tech savvy, alert, and outgoing with a quick mind. But I learn from the media I must hide the strength of my resume because “it will give away my age.” Hide your assets? Young people and old alike enjoy working with me so where do elephants go to die? We need to change our society’s (and others) views on why experience becomes a handicap. If experience and success are not the measure of value, what is?

respect…. writes: “So I realized that there must be something abnormal about us seniors and created this blog to find out why we have lost our value when we hit at least 55. It is time we are allowed to continue to contribute to society.”
=====================================
I agree. Justice Stevens is 89 and no one thinks he is slowing down [and he isn't, even if you disagree with his jurisprudence], and Holmes was over 90 before he did; it was only because of the social security system and ages given there that we developed this thought that people over [some age] are dottering. I’ve known [and daily see] people in their 30s who are aged and demented, and people over 80 who are sharp and insightful, and we need to desist from this knee-jerk ageism and focus on substance.
