        That would be un-Christian. We are trying to inspire an impeachment, and electoral landslides in 2010 and 2012. I want BHO to be the first president in history lose all 50 states.

            I think Harpo and Chico Marx probably knew more about economics than Karl Marx and Engels combined.

            Obama said he wanted to spread teh wealth - this is a tenet of Marxism. His mentor was Frank Marshall Davis - a known Communist. Why can't you just admit your hero is a Marxist?

              Barry's favorite author as a child was Franz Fanon - another complete and total whack job nut. He certainly seems to gravitate toward these sorts. If you roll around with pugs, you get mud on you. Face it, Barry is indeed a Marxist.

                  There is nothing to explain. It is a historical fact that the United States entered World War II against Germany to shut down the Concentration Camps.

                  Try reading a textbook. Do I have to prove to you that we landed in Normandy on 6/6/44? I wasn't there, but I know it was a fact. What is there to prove - the statement speaks for itself. I guess you didn't study US history. If you are this dimwitted I can't help you.

          Seahawks, you need to understand that neo-conservatism was founded by and is based upon the teachings of Leon Trotsky, a Marxist. William Kristol, one of Fox's favorite "contributors," is the son of Irving Kristol who is known as the Godfather of American neo-conservatism [formerly known as neo-classical LIBERALISM]. Kristol, Krauthammer, John Bolton . . . they are all neo-conservatives and they work for Fox. Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Douglas Feith [the guy who the Inspector General's report said "inappropriately manipulated" pre-invasion intelligence on Iraq], Richard Perle, David Frum . . . all neo-conservatives. Now, they do try to run away from the association with Trotsky, but Irving Kristol was proud of it, "I regard myself to have been a young Trostkyite and I have not a single bitter memory."

          You don't know what Marxism is any more than Beck does. Look it up.

            Marxism is the sharing of wealth from people that have.... the rich to the "needy". Without earning any of it based on the governments decision. As a "conservative" you would never go for government intrusion and that is not just in the bedroom it includes what people make, limited government. (outside of what is included in the constitution) I fear my "conservative" friend you are nothing but a big gov repub... a RINO as popularitly called. I never hear you defend any part of conservativism... you bash us just as bad as the biggest lib here.

The fact that Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Jean Kirkpatrick and many other non-Jews are also neo-conservatives negates that argument. Fail, BJ.

                    Before you tell someone that they don't know what a "neo-conservative" is, you should do your own research. Talking points of the nature that you post here are almost always BS.

                    My suggestions for your research would include Leo Strauss, Irving Kristol, neo-conservatism, the Straussians . . . that should get you started.

          Psssst, Seahawks, you know who else was a fervent believer in the redistribution of wealth? Thomas Paine.

          C]reate a national fund, out of which there shall be paid to every person, when arrived at the age of twenty-one years, the sum of fifteen pounds sterling, as a compensation in part, for the loss of his or her natural inheritance, by the introduction of the system of landed property. And also, the sum of ten pounds per annum, during life, to every person now living, of the age of fifty years, and to all others as they shall arrive at that age.

          Oh, and he also wanted to redistribute land ownership:

          It is a position not to be controverted that the earth, in its natural, cultivated state was, and ever would have continued to be, the common property of the human race. In that state every man would have been born to property. He would have been a joint life proprietor with rest in the property of the soil, and in all its natural productions, vegetable and animal.

                  Christ never mentioned the phrase "social justice". Please cite where in teh Goepel he mentioned that term.

                  "Social justice' is a construct of Marxist liberation theology. Christ NEVER espoused it (now I know you are not a Christian).

                  Christ preached fealty and obedience to his Father. St. Josemaria taught us that the concept of social justice was an attempt by the Communists to undermine the Church.

                  The Republicans in the Spanish Civil War (I hate those Republicans) tried to bastardize and corrupt the Church because it was a source of strength for the Falange and the Carlists. It was the benefactor of the Republicans - Stalin - who wanted to erode the power of the Church, he tried to put man above God by injecting the cancer into the CHurch.

                  You should study the writings of St. Josemaria - they inspired and sustained the Nationalists during the Spanish Civil War (was was a de facto religious war).

                  Socaial justice is a Marxist code word - it should be taught only in teh concept of guiding people to reject it.

      Actually, the previous Administration was all about the Unitary Executive, and calling the Constitution a piece of paper. The Compassionate Conservative Mr. Bush is opposed to the government, he believes that government is the problem, and he tried to strip Congress of its power, by building up the Executive. He also believed in American Exceptionalism, which is a lot like International Manifest Destiny. I think the Republic is in much better hands than it was 9 years ago.

                Time for a history lesson. Who invented waterboarding? The Spanish inquisitors. Tomas de Toquemada used waterboarding to re-Christianize Spain. Torquemada had the direct permission of the Vatican authorizing it. Spain today might not be a Christian nation had it not been for Torquemada and the Inqusition.

                Torquemada taught people to think of waterboarding as a sort of rebaptism. Obviously waterboarding and Christianity are not inconsistent. Waterbaording has been used to defend Christianity.

                  Um, no. Waterboarding has been used by people who claim to be Christian, in furtherance of their consolidation of temporal power and authority. Just because the Pope okays it does not make it acceptable or Christian.

                  If you are going to uphold the Inquisition as a Christian ideal, then you do not understand Christianity or the teachings of Christ at all. Spain's status as a 'Christian nation', whatever that means, is completely irrelevant. Teaching waterboarding as a form of baptism is also no more relevant than teaching crucifixion as a form of carpentry. Both are torture. Both are wrong. Past use does not justify current practice. There is more biblical support for slavery than there is for torture.

                        Well, technically, The Pope, only when speaking ex cathedra, defines what the dogma of the Catholic Church is. However, according to the dogma of the CC, only the Catholic Church is directly descended from Peter.

                          Are you familiar with the concept of a Papal Bull?

                          "Exigit sinceræ devotionis" This was a Papal Bull signed by His Holiness Pope Sixtus IV on November 1, 1478. This Bull has never been rescinded, ergo it remains Canon Law to this day.

                          This explicitly authorized Fernanand and Isabella to conduct an Inqusition. Under the aegis of this canonical authority, they appointed Tomas de Torquemada the Holy Office of Grand Inquisitor.

                          Your comments about the doctrine of ex cathedra are correct, however this dogma was only proclaimed in during the First Vatican Ecumenical Council in 1854.

                          Prior to 1854, Pope's governed by Papal Bull. These were edicts which carried force majure under Canon Law.

                          I repeat that Pope Sixtus IV directly authorized the Inquisition, including waterboarding. The Catholic Church was pro-waterboarding in 1478 and Pope Benedict would rescind "Exigit sinceræ devotionis" if he opposed waterboarding. He could do this tomorrow.

                          Since he hasn't, waterboarding is the impramatur of the Catholic Church.

                          Still think I'm not a Catholic or didn't major in history?

      Funny that Beck didn't take the time to question Rove about the huge expansion of the federal government under the Bush administration and the rolling back of Constitutional rights. I would've thought that Beck takes that sort of thing seriously... if he weren't just an empty suit hoarding money.

              I know I am being an ass for saying this. But I had a talk with a former John Edwards senior campaign staffer, and she said that once Obama won the nomination, his campaign blacklisted all those who worked for the Edwards and Clinton campaigns. Several of them offered their services for free, and they were locked out. According to the staffer, that did not happen in Clinton's 1992 campaign or John Kerry's 2004 campaign. The kids who worked for Obama were / are really nasty.

        The only people I've ever heard refer to President Obama as a deity have been right-wingers. Liberals don't deify people. That's a rw characteristic. Ex. Ronald Reagan

        As far as whom President Obama has as advisers and staff, he did the same thing that all of the other presidents have done. He chose the people he wanted for those jobs. Right-wingers said nothing about GWB's choices, so STFU. Right-wingers all of a sudden want new rules for President Obama for everything, and what have their efforts brought them? The lowest poll ratings among the president, the democrats, and republicans. So, the only conclusion a right-winger can draw from these poll results is that, "We're winning!" The president has higher ratings than either political party. The sh!t you all are selling about President Obama, the American public isn't buying, but keep on deluding yourselves.

            Simple question even YOU should be able to answer, Bobby Jindal fan. Is being a communist against the law? In the same way that, say, chasing underage boys or doing cocaine or torture is against the law?

              No, being a Communist is not against the law - nor should it be. If someone is a Communist, good for them - but they should be honest and admit so. They should not masquerade as something they are not.

              Anyone has an absolute right to be a Communist, and I have an absolute right to oppose their ideas and attempt to defeat them when they run for office.

              Chasing underage boys and doing cocaine is unambiguously against the law. Torture is a grey area. If it is done for purposes of the personal entertainment of the torturer, it is wrong and immoral. If it is done to protect national security, it is perfectly acceptable.

                The only name that springs immediately to my mind is Van Jones, who at one time did espouse communist beliefs, but no longer does.

                Torture? Not a grey area. According to international law, international treaty, and the laws of America, it is as illegal as cocaine and pedophilia. The ends can never justify the means, Bobby Jindal fan. Basic axiom of civilization.

      Anita Dunn admitted that Mao is her favorite philosopher. Glenn has her on tape. Marc Lloyd loves Hugo Chavez. Van Jones is a self admitted Communist. Bill Ayers is a terrorist. Rev. Wright is a stark raving lunatic racist. Cass Sunstein thinks trees have rights. John Holdren, the science czar, supports forced abortions.

      When I was a kid, my parents told me that you are known by the company you keep. Barry certainly keeps some interesting company. I can only logically conclude that Barry agrees with these loons. He is one of these loons.

        BHO himself is an admirer of Mao. His childhood mentor was Frank Marshall Davis a known Communist. HUAC subpoenaed the guy. Davis was a known admirer of Mao and I'm sure he indoctrinated young Barry's mine when they were smoking pot together.

        Wow. Not one true statement in that entire rant. Impressive.

        You know, BJ, simply saying something over and over and over and over, doesn't make it true.

        You tried this with the "many experts in forensic grammar have determined that Ayers wrote Obama's book". That was a bunch of garbage you pulled out of your butt. Completely and totally made up. You just thought, "y'know, maybe if I just SAY this over and over, I can make it be true!"

        Unfortunately, that doesn't work. At least not with anyone who has half a brain. If you wanna go find some right-wing sight where you can sit with your buddies and nod at how smart you all are while you repeat false talking points, your delusion that SAYING it makes it true, might serve you better.

            People like BJ represent all that is wrong with political discourse today. People like him are completely governed by emotion; they've lost their capacity to be rational.

            I don't mind having a rational disagreement with someone. Take somebody like Juan Williams for instance. I definitely don't always agree with him, but I respect him because he's clearly so rational and level-headed. He actually thinks about things and really evaluates the facts in order to establish an opinion.

            People like Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck and BJ are completely at the mercy of their emotions, and so they'll believe anything, without question, as long as it appeals to the emotions they are feeling.

            Like, "Oh, you say Bill Ayers wrote Obama's book? I like the way that sounds! Oh, you say Anita Dunn worships Mao? Well that certainly validates my feelings. I'm on board!"

          "That was a bunch of garbage you pulled out of your butt"

          First I am parotting talking points - now I am pulling things out of my butt. There seems to be an inconsistency here. I can't be doing both - which is it? Am I repeating talking points of fabricating thigns out of whole cloth? The two are mutually exclusive.

          Are you claiming that Frank Marshall Davis was not subpoenaed by HUAC? Are you claiming that Davis was not an influential childhood mentor of Barry?

          Here is Frank Marshall Davis' FBI file:

          http://www.usasurvival.org/docs/Frank_Marshall_Davis_5.pdf

          Are you denying he was a Communist? Barry admitted Davis was his mentor. What did I say that was untrue?
