The Diggers should love this as much as his request for more war money.

This is why Obama is far more dangerous than Bush because he can sell this stuff and the people think he is great. He is doing everything and more Bush did, but is selling it.

Well...he's not selling it...they are just hypocrites...and a faction of them are NOT going up against a "brotha" even if he is WRONG. It's always been that way. tones

On paltalk, they are condemning the fellow in Pennsylvania for shooting 3 policemen, but they give the child rapist criminal in Oakland who shot 5 policemen a pass...truth. They are weird as owl shit and dullards. tones

Not exactly. One implies that the President has a say in how the country is run:


Meet the new boss, same the old boss.

The other doesn't.


Meet the new boss, same boss as the old boss.

Basically, the President is a front man, and nothing more.

I saw this over at DemocraticUnderground and decided I had to repost it. I laughed my ass off.


You Little People With Your "Laws" And Your "Constitution"!!!
Why can't you just let the grownups take care of business? Habeas Corpus is a quaint notion, but it's really just for dreamers, academics, and terrorists.

Now throw another middle-classer on the barbie - the bankers are getting hungry.
