Sick. Obama Again Compares His Socialist Agenda to Freeing the Slaves

From: Gateway Pundit

Sick. Again tonight Barack Obama compared his failed socialist agenda to freeing the slaves in America.

Click on the Image for Video–

“People are frustrated, their anxious, they’re scared about the future. And they have a right to be impatient about the pace of change. I’m impatient,” President Obama said at an event for Gen44. “It took time to free the slaves,” he added.

Earlier this week Barack Obama compared his radical agenda to “slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs.”
Here’s the transcript:

In every instance, progress took time. In every instance, progress took sacrifice. Progress took faith. You know, the slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs, they weren’t sure when slavery would end but they understood it was going to end. When women were out there marching for the right to vote, they weren’t sure when it was going to happen but they kept on going. (Applause.) When workers were organizing for the right to organize and were being intimidated, they weren’t sure when change was going to come but they knew it was going to come. And I am telling you, Wisconsin, we are bringing about change and progress is going to come — but you’ve got to stick with me. You can’t lose heart. (Applause.)

Change is going to come.
(Applause.)

What this guy lacks in leadership and results he makes up for in arrogance.

Quotes of the day

From: Hot Air » Top Picks

Going negative.


“The Democratic Party right now is showing signs of coming apart, under the pressure of the election and two years of an unpopular presidency. But it’s not a split in two, with the left versus the establishment. It’s more like a splintering, with left-leaning activists distancing themselves from the party’s politicians and moderate politicians distancing [...]

Believe in Climate Change or Die, Kid!

From: Michelle Malkin

**Written by Doug Powers

The “10:10 Campaign” purports to be an effort to convince the world to cut carbon emissions ten percent per year for the next ten years. But if that doesn’t work, forget about eco-gulags for deniers — it might be necessary to just blow them up, kids and all.

By way of Story Balloon, here’s a little porn for Al Gore and the incredibly insane White House Science Czar:

I’d be able to laugh off that video as a weak and unfunny attempt at sick humor if I didn’t know so much about the visions and goals of the people peddling this particular scam.

The desperation in the movement is palpable.

Gallup: Obama 52, Hillary 37

From: Hot Air » Top Picks

Awww yeah.


Two thoughts on this very dumb but eternally amusing hypothetical. One: Seriously? Hillary only polls 37 percent against a guy who’s united America in its shared disappointment in him? How high does unemployment have to get before she’s within single digits? Fifteen percent? Obama by 10 among Democratic women? Good lord. Two: Given the buzz [...]
