Gas Bandit's Political Thread Update - Huge Gigantic Font Edition
So Gordon Brown gave Obama a pen made from the wood of a british Anti-slavery ship. And Obama gave him a box set of 25 "great american movie" DVDs... in NTSC format, which means they won't play on british DVD players.
Oh, but not to be outdone, Hillary had to do TWO foreign affairs gaffes. Not only did she inadvertently insult the Russian PM with the gift of an "overcharge" button (it was supposed to be a "reset" button, to show it was time to start our relations over on the right foot, but the translation got screwed up), but then she goes to brussels and tells europe that American democracy predates European democracy.
You know if the above happened to Bush and Condi, the media would literally be eating them alive at this moment.
Seems there's a little bit of a hissyfit going on between Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich.
A great Thomas Sowell column .. just chock full o' common sense. Try this sentence: "Why should taxpayers who live in apartments, perhaps because they did not feel that they could afford to buy a house, be forced to subsidize other people who could not afford to buy a house but who went ahead and bought one anyway?" Why indeed?
The Supreme Court ruled against the expansion of protection for minorities under the federal voting rights law. Clearly a racist court.
Wikipedia won't be putting up with any controversy in their glowing, loving article on Barack Obama.
There's a lot of flapping of gums going on about who "wants Obama to fail." Just a little flashback for you ... back in 2006, more than half of Democrats wanted George Bush to fail.
This ought to get the wealth-envy crowd going ... a Facebook for the filthy, evil, scum-filled rich.
Let's wrap it up with a great quote -
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that, my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it." - Dr. Adrian Pierce Rogers
