And only someone with a heart of ice can be against ensuring children have health insurance. I’d rather their parents had it as well, but you can’t have everything.

I am a capitalist, self employed and proud of being a free market capitalist…since when in America do those of us who believe in freedom, capitalism and free enterprise now have to doubly rejoin with other free market capitalists…I believe America is about the individual and freedom….and individual free choice.

but its always nice to read the delusions of Nobamaniacs…and to know what we will have to stand up against…January 20, 2009……the day the USA began its journey to be the new USSR….keep up the good work Comrade Boone….your Chosen One will be proud of your comments!

The only interesting thing is going to be the escalating fight between Pelosi and Obama. Pelosi is really throwing her weight around and Obama seems tired of it already. I read a post on another blog suggesting that Pelosi thinks Obama owes her after she had the DNC spend so much money to defer the birth certificate lawsuit. Pelosi seems to be a hotheaded, unprofessional goofball. I plan to have the popcorn ready for when she snaps and lets her secrets on Obama rip to the media…oooh the fun!!

So, no I don’t want Nobama to succeed since his plans for this country will obliterate capitalism, end freedom, individual choice and make us all robot soldiers/wards of the state……The Chosen One/Marxist in Chief is well on his way to making sure we look like and are the former Soviet Union and Red China as they are emulating the capitalism of what used to be the United States of America.

If Nobama realizes he is the President of the United States of America (maybe he will need to keep practicing the oath of office for President of the United States of America and the Constitution he has sworn to uphold and defend, then maybe he will get a clue and buy a vowel and know we are a capitalist country..not the Marxist/Socialist one he is creating….while he leads our country as the lambs to slaughter led by the MSM deep long into the end of the country as we know it)

What to heck is wrong with “conservatives” when they are not demanding fiscal accountability?

Conservatives have been demanding fiscal accountability. A large number of Republicans in congress have not. And President Bush did not do so forcefully enough. Hopefully they have learned their lesson and will start demanding it now that Obama and the Democrats are doubling and quadrupling down on that irresponsibility

And a government that tells the truth?

the government has told the truth up until 2006, at least the majority did. I wish conservatives would do more to point out how dishonest it has been in the past two years.

And leadership that can at least speak the English language?

Uh, you, uh, mean, uh, like, uh, Barack, uh, Obama? Or maybe, like, you know, you like, you know, mean the, like, Kennedy’s, you know?

What can you do help at this time of national crisis? I think the answer is pretty clear cut.

I agree! Work to block everything Obama and the Democrats are proposing, and if that doesn’t work, challenge its constitutionality in court! And then defeat them in 2010.

Save America! Defeat Democrats!

Can we please do away with the inaugural poems altogether?

One thing about conservatives that liberals like yourself will never understand is that this country, regardless of who is in charge of it, is our country, and we are proud of it and serve it regardless. You and your fellow adherents to the Obama cult of personality hate and despise this country unless your messiahs are in charge of it. Your whining about our need to serve is disgusting because you and your fellow pig liberals wouldn’t do a damn thing of the sort for the past eight years.

Furthermore, as far as “self-respecting”, what we know is that leftist gays like yourself fully endorse and support what you scream is “homophobia” when it comes from the “correct” party. You’re really nothing more than a hypocrite.

You’re right, North Dallas Thirty, that America is greater than any one man (or woman). HOWEVER, we need Barack Obama’s leadership of the 300-plus million people in this nation to succeed. He will steer the ship and set the course, and we will do all the other little things it takes to keep the ship running, if you’ll excuse the metaphor.

My family on three sides has been in this country since before the Revolution. I am a direct descendant of Daniel Boone’s brother, George Ovid, and of a cousin of Nancy Hanks Lincoln (Abraham Lincoln’s mother). My forebears and family have fought for liberty and freedom in every war this country has been engaged in – including the Civil War. If you want to wave the red, white, and blue, I am every bit as entitled as anyone else in this country to do so.

I did not vote George W. Bush. He was not on the ballot. I did vote against the abysmal failed polices enacted by the Republican party — who have, in fact, had control of both houses of Congress for most of the past two decades — and against the absolutely mediocre, unimaginative, self-centered nonsense they have passed off as “leadership”. I am excited about Obama because he can at least make a speech and while he may be reading from a teleprompter, the truth is that he writes and has written the better part of all of his speeches. And that he can speak the English language quite eloquently. And while English may be spoken differently in different parts of the world, my bet is that this statement reads the same across the entire Anglophile world: “Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”—Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004″

Oh, and Obama did not win a small margin of some few hundred thousand voters in area of Canton, Ohio by running for God, for guns, and against gays. (For that matter, Al Gore did win in 2000. But let’s not get into that.) How any self-respecting gay person could vote for a candidate who made homophobia a trump card is utterly beyond my comprehension. But hey – if you are satisfied with candidates who stoop to measures like that —

The truth is that whether we like this new President or not (and I happen to find him very substantive and a very welcome change, but perhaps that is because I am willing to open my ears and hear what he has to say) — whether we like this new President or not, we all do very much need for him to succeed. Global security and our economic survival both hinge on good leadership. No President can do it all himself; the role of the President is to provide that “vision thing”, to inspire people, to forge a general common unified direction, in short to lead. How can a President lead if he cannot even give a coherent speech? (The list of George W.’s collisions with the English language is in the thousands.) But not only did George W. let down the American people, the Republican party sold us too. Supposedly the Republican party stands for smaller government and balanced budgets. When Clinton left office, the national debt was paid down; today government is larger than it has ever been and we are looking at a $1 trillion national debt. A failed war on terrorism, a world so completely alienated from us by cowboy diplomacy that repairs are going to take decades, collapsing Wall Street, collapsing banks, collapsing auto industry, unprecedented unemployment rates, shrinking middle class, a growing and unbelievable disparity between the haves and have-nots, the suspension of habeas corpus, the data mining techniques being employed rightly or wrongly by the NSA in direct contradiction of inalienable rights in the Constitution, Guantanamo, Abu Gharaib, the enormous problems both physical and psychological returning Armed Forces are going to have after we withdraw from a war that was a appalling blunder (unless you still happen to believe we are going to find those WMD we were wrongly assured were definitely there), see-saw oil prices and oil dependency issues, and Global Warming.

Regardless of where you stand on all of this, this is the time to stop bitching and whining and to take the President up on his call. Now is the time for us to start asking what we can do for America. Now is the time for all of us whether in big ways or small to get involved and to do everything we can to make a positive contribution towards solving these problems.

We can argue about this forever. But that is not going to solve the problems.

Go ahead and make mock me and what I have to say. (Like I said, I will defend your First Amendment right to express your opinion regardless of how imbecilic I think it is). Then look in the mirror. As we used to say back in the 60s, you are either part of the solution or part of the problem.

We all need Barack to succeed because we all need to succeed. Like it or not, we are all in this boat together.

Enough. No go right ahead and misconstrue and deliberately not hear everything I have had to say and characterize me as something I am not. I really do not care. Because the record here reads for itself and ideas, especially true ideas, cannot be stopped.

The new President has called to all of us to join the remaking of America. I urge all of you to do your part. All perspectives and all hands are needed at this critical time. We do not have time to waste. We have to get to work.
