The Racist Conservitives/Repubs have zero respect for our President or the office of the Presidency. But nothing but friendship, pride, and kinship toward white supremacist groups.This is not surprising coming from the political party that routinely insulted and still insults our first bi-racial president and his family, starting with their non-stop demands to see President Obama's birth certificate, something no other president has had to endure. While they piously claim to not hold any racial prejudices (it's only President Obama's policies they're against, you see), they continue to get caught sharing filthy racist photo shopped images of Mr. and Mrs. Obama, as well as disgusting racist jokes and slurs. In our own little circle of blogging acquaintances, Lisa's blog, otherwise known as the Smut Hut, regularly hosts low-lifes who make fun of Malia and Sasha, and the First Lady with racial smears and slander.<br /><br />These bottom-feeders may not be the majority, but they are very welcome in the GOP and are very comfortable in maligning and defaming the POTUS and FLOTUS. But they never miss a Sunday when they show off to their followers what exceptionally devout and humble Christianists they are. <br /><br />As I said, if nothing else, these Party Nazis lovers are consistent in loving the malice and ugly racism they wallow in on a daily basis. If you need any examples that Tea Partiers are pro-gun, middle-American, white supremacists., just read Glenn Beck's Blaze website.A.

His insufferable arrogance, incompetence, venal dishonesty, stupidity, laziness, bad judgement, callous indifference to the grief that he is manufacturing, and a host of other reasons make racism, if it exists at all, such a minor factor, that it is a waste of time to respond to those leftist idiots who bring it up.<br />arrogant, venally dishonest, callously indifferent, and has bad judgment.<br />But he's not incompetent, stupid, or lazy. His goal is the destruction of the United States of America as a world superpower. He knows exactly what he's doing, why, is working very hard to accomplish it, and unfortunately, succeeding.<br />That's all the you Liberals have left, "fake accusations of racism."

And I thank you AOW for being so honest and having the backbone, spirit, and grit, to say it even though you have had to put up with the fools who seem to gather here only to disrupt your blog, you have shown us how your bravery, and endurance has won out.I think that you have been an excellent analyst, and I thank you for all of your contributions to the Conservative cause.<br />I am one of the ones who was turned against Obama, from day one. For example, his failing to follow through on Guantanamo, for his stance on NSA and whistleblowers, for his vastly over aggressiveness of his siding with any cause that involves a Black person, the wimpish way he has acted toward his foreign aggressors, and his failure to work on removing the Patriot Act. His failure to pass the keystone pipeline. Bowing to just about every Dictator. Proposing amnesty for illegal aliens.<br />He turned an active supporter into an even more zealous opponent with these actions. And yes, I grew angry at him for doing nothing but meaningless speeches when real action was needed. And to my mind, he has botched the Russia-Ukraine issue too. And very badly. Naming numerous Communists/Socialists/Progressives to his various Czar positions and then watching them scurry for cover when Glenn Beck began to call them out, forcing them to resign. Calling the Tea Party racists!<br />He has been much more of an Epic Failure than President Carter.<br />So yes. Obama, like the series "Lost," had so much potential and abysmal follow through. And he has transformed me from a left-leaning independent at the time of his first inauguration, into the anarchist I am today.Johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-56835262975406070682015-01-04T07:34:49.198-06:002015-01-04T07:34:49.198-06:00Number three is about excessive government regulat...Number three is about excessive government regulation.

Very injurious.<br /><br />As one who rarely phones the police, I can say that I quickly phoned the police on two occasions: when my car was stolen from in front of my house in 1972 and when our home was burglarized in 2009. The latter was particular troublesome because I didn't know if the burglar was still hiding in the house. <br /><br /><b>When one needs an officer of the law, one is very grateful to be able to contact such an officer.</b> <br /><br />Have I ever had run-ins with the police? Once. <br /><br />When I was in college (1968 or 1969) and was being harassed by an officer, who stopped me because, in his words, he didn't "like the look" of me: long, straight hair, black leather jacket with fringe, college parking sticker on the bumper.<br /><br />I kept my cool, didn't even raise my voice.<br /><br />I said, "I want my attorney now," then recited our family attorney's name and phone number. End of story. If I had started screaming or gone for his weapon, the story would have had a different ending, I'm sure.Always On Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192688822955022541noreply@blogger.com
