And remember boys & girls, it was Mr. Krauthammer that kept writing in column after column that Saddam was going to give nuclear weapons to the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11. So, he should know something about misleading.

Obama has backed off his anti-war rhetoric and is following many of GWB’s policies. Obama has gone along with GWB’s policies on FISA, and the banker bailout.

If the Iraq war is so wrong, and I agree that it is, where are the protesters now? You have liberal columnists cheering on the war in Afghanistan and it’s expansion into Pakistan.

Krauthammer is correct in this instance that any disagreement with this administration is met with cries of racism. How does that further debate or solve any problems? It doesn’t. But it sure helps to demonize any opposition.

he also said his mother was on food stamps while he went to a private school…
‘cept his mother was a graduate student at U.HI and that was part of her stipend, and he was off at Occidental by then

he’s always eliding eluding conflating inflating confabulating with premeasured plausible deniability and retreatable misstatements

When obama won? the primary, I switched from democrat to “decline to state” and ended up voting for ralph nader. When obama won the presidency, I found myself sneakily reading conservative opinions and analysis although in my heart I’m a liberal. However, I now feel free to take in all points of view rather than the party line. What a liberating experience and I’m no longer a sneak. I’M FREE!!!

Instead of referring to “the Multiple in general,” Bergson’s theory of multiplicities distinguishes between two types of multiplicity: continuous multiplicities and discrete multiplicities (a distinction that he developed from Riemann).[5] The features of this distinction may be tabulated as follows:

Continuous multiplicities Discrete multiplicities
differences in kind differences in degree
divides only by changing in kind divides without changing in kind
non-numerical – qualitative numerical – quantitative
differences are virtual differences are actual
continuous discontinuous
qualitative discrimination quantitative differentiation
simultaneity succession
fusion juxtaposition
organization order
subjective – subject objective – object
duration space

“There are no blue states. There are no red states. There is only the United States … We have to leave behind the old divisions rooted in the outdated ’60s … it’s not her fault, but Hillary is too polarizing.”

I don’t recall any fear that Hillary’s battle with the VRWC would turn violent. The Klan will ride again? That sounds pretty outdated. And Team Obama’s campaign to dehumanize heartland Americans shows the ‘blue state-red state’ speech was a galactic whopper. As for ‘The Obama Movement’ — Obama has turned the progressive movement into a schizophrenic mess that defends his ban on abortion funding.

Bush gave us ‘uniter not divider’ b.s. soundbite, but that wasn’t his basic message. He ran as an Evangelical identity candidate, and that’s how he governed. Nixon ran as the Cold Warrior who’d negotiate from strength — that’s just what he did. Reagan governed just as he campaigned — like John Wayne. Bill said ‘we can do better.’ We did. Whatever you think of any of these Presidents, none of them ran on a fundamental lie — except Obama. His entire campaign was a Big Lie.

The comment was from “Will”.

Another post that week was similar: http://dailybail.com/home/divide-and-conquer-the-partisan-blame-trap.html

The Daily Bail is a great site–it’s subtitled “Bailout News, Opinion & Analysis. A Path to Federal Bankruptcy.”

But I share your respect for Krauthammer, his intelligence and ability to frame an argument [though I often find myself on the opposing side].

I guess at this point in time, I’m an Independent by default. I will not allow party affiliation to jerk me around again, ever. I’m an American first. I think that’s where we all need to be now. So, I will read everything and listen to anyone who’s willing to tell the truth, a rare commodity these days. And then make up my own mind and vote for the best candidate.

Party be damned!
