Well, alright, whatever that is. He's also not a Kenyan, Commie, or Muslim, but don't let that slow anyone down!

I'd kind of like to be a Kenyan... they've got some great hunting land there, I'm told..

You obviously have never seen how the average Kenyan lives. For 99% of the people life in Africa ain't pretty and the only game left alive is on reserves.

If he is not eligible to be president and if the Republicans are not able to prove it and show he is ineligible- How can we trust the Republican party to be competent in finding out other subversive bits of information. Seems to me they would be really incompetent to run the country. So either the Republican Party is incompetent or Obama is legally able to be President.

The Army treated me to 18 months in Eritrea, during which I took a 5 day bus tour of Kenya. The big land owners had a pretty good life but otherwise, for the average black Kenyan it's a struggle to survive. Ethiopia may be a little worse but it's all pretty horrible. That was in '64-'65 but I really doubt it has gotten better. Reserves, both government and private, have been set up to preserve such wildlife as is left, otherwise it has pretty much all been eaten. There is a huge outcry against "poachers" but if your family's livelyhood depends on your three cows and a big cat kills one of them I can hardly blame the man who snares the cat.

I believe Obama is a communist or Marxist. Why, because of his association with William Ayers and Saul Alensky. Both are communists. Some of Obama's classmates have said he was socialist leaning in college. Communists have always pushed universal health care, public ownership of property, public control of utilities, mining, oil and gasoline production, government dependency, getting God out of everything, tearing down the family unit for control of the masses. Dictatorship of the proletariant. Why is Homeland Security buying 450 million rounds of 40 SW handgun caliber rounds and anothe 175 million .223 rounds? Why today did Obama give $500 million to the IRS to enforce healthcare?

DDZ · « **Reply #11 on:** April 09, 2012, 10:37:11 AM »

Dixie, don't forget Obama's tutor while growing up. Communist Frank Marshall Davis. Davis was know to the FBI as a Stalinist agent working in the US. Part of the well established communist network operating on the Hawaiian Islands. Davis was also a radical sexual deviant who wrote a book "Sex Rebel-Black" Its the reason I think the stories about Obama's past homosexual activities are true. I also believe that he is Muslim or is partial to Islam, because he pretty much said so himself. That kind of stuff just doesn't accidently roll off your tongue.

Here's a little ditty my Dad taught me years ago;

" No matter how you deny and weep....you'll always be judged by the company you keep !"

We do have a good idea of the company Obammy has kept all his life.. he even told us in his books.

Here's the company he sought out... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4EHmzslKLw

Well Matt- I admit, I was one of those that thought the word was misspelled and wasn't an economic policy. Learn something every day.

DDZ · « **Reply #16 on:** April 09, 2012, 12:42:33 PM »

Good ole Keynesian economics. Its the reason we are 15 trillion in debt. Republicans and democrats haven't yet figured out it doesn't work. I think Obama is just happy with whatever will bring America down to third world status. In hope then of becoming a dictator.

Keynesian economics is only half practiced. Keynes said during boom times or good economic times, the government was to pay off debt and SAVE for the bad times. We have NEVER saved for bad times nor paid off debt during good times. The Federal Reserve is mostly to blame. They control the money supply. Also, the government spends way too much, always have, and thus created inflation. We are about to enter high inflation times.

The Obama administration had asked China to let the value of their money go up, which will make ours go down (inflation) to help pay down debt.

Kensian Econ has more to do with bottom up than top down.
Most of the New Deal programs were Bottom up. Likr the CCC that the government hired people to do things to get them off the streets.
By putting a little moneyu in their hands it was thought that you would lift the poor out of poverty by creating a demand, for other goods and that would start top down Economics. and new jobs will be created and those people working at government jobs will leave for higher paying private jobs.
Unfortunatly now we are just handing the poor $ and they are not willing to work for the original $ and if you are not working why leave for a higher paying or worse lower paying job than the free hand outs.
the Hoover Dam was a kensyan project that fuels the economy of Nevada creating other jobs. As we can see that we are not Shovel ready with jobs that will create other jobs. Green technoligy is a hydro electric dam as well as storing a water supply for populations and irragation.

Dixie Dude,

Excellent post, sir. We should follow the lesson of the ant: be industrious, save and put away for the rainy day. Instead, Americans are like the grasshopper: hop, play, and party away the day. Now, we are on the precipice of Hard Times: inflation, devalued dollars, higher energy prices, higher food costs, increased unemployment, and on the verge of possible austerity measures. Watch out for welfare parasite riots.........

And, yep, Obama is not Keynesian, he is a Leninist.

We really should learn from experience;

Reagan proved that Laffer's "supply side" economics works..

Obama has proven that Keynes is a phony..

Dixie Dude · « **Reply #26 on:** April 20, 2012, 02:22:46 AM »

Well, at least FDR had a "jobs" program. He said it would be better for people to work for their money than just give it to them. He said we would loose the work ethic if we just had welfare checks with no work in return. Therefore he had dams, bridges, and roads built and paved. He also planted trees on barron property around the country. Johnson thought he would eliminate poverty by the "Great Society" give away programs. It did what FDR said it would, create a lazy permanent poverty class.

Obamas "stimulus" was only to help the "democratic" cities and states get their budgets in balance without cutting anything. Didn't really stimulate anything.

I fear for our country.
