Melvin| 1.23.09 @ 7:33AM

The comments come from people, who elected a President who has appointed a documented thief and liar as Secretary of State, a tax evader who has known for the last two to three years that he owed taxes but chose not to pay them as Secretary of the Treasury.
A Chief of Staff Rahm Emanual, who is eyebrow deep in the scandal with the Governor of Illinois.
Many of this Country's cities are decaying cesspools of decadence, crime, and violence with Liberal Democrats that have been in charge since the 60s.
Government run schools no longer produce great engineers, mathematicians but do produce illiterate, obedient government drones who depend on government from birth to grave and couldn't name their two Senators, but have their Social Services Officer on speed dial on their cell phones.
The majority of the Liberal posts try to come across as educated, and well- spoken, but ultimately resort to foul mouthed sophomoric language, (thank you government run schools) which is typical Liberalism when cornered to actually say something intelligent.
Liberalism has snaked through this country like an incurable social disease that gives Americans no relief from an exploding government bureaucracy.
For those who accuse former President Bush as being a Conservative this just goes to show how illiterate you are because President Bush was no Conservative and neither was John McCain.

Oh drear, oh drear. Now the Dems get a chance to turn the whole nation into Detroit. That's really worked out well for 50 years of continuous leftist ruination.

culper, jr.| 1.23.09 @ 8:35AM

It is all so much easier to understand if viewed from the perspective of a liberal. As an ex-girlfriend once told me: "I am open-minded. Since you disagree with me, that makes you closed-minded."

That, I think, is the Rosetta Stone of liberal thinking.

Alan Brooks| 1.23.09 @ 8:37AM

I am just so unhappy that these far-left, morally and intellectually bankrupt juvenile delinquents, are not conservatives.

Oh wait, not really.

Welcome to the Age of Neener Neener Neener.

Those of us who have lived in Atlanta saw it clearly. In fact, I saw it so clearly that after 17 years of putting up with it I moved the heck out. "Reverend" Lowery expressed very clearly the attitude Black folks take when "it's our turn now" becomes their mantra.

As my sainted Daddy always said, "They don't want equality. THEY WANT REVENGE."

Enjoy yourselves. You wanted it -- you got it.

Bruce| 1.23.09 @ 9:56AM

Looks like I need to get one of those "Dissent is the highest form of Patriotism" bumper stickers ASAP ....

"I'm Against It"

melvin| 1.23.09 @ 10:14AM

The, "Revenge" theory I must admit has crossed my mind a time or two but in todays world that theory is just a easy cop-out just as calling all Americans who live in the South Red Necks or trailer trash, these generalizations are more the exception than of being the rule.
There are Conservative Black Americans and their voices are going to be eventually the norm, but at this point their voices are being drowned out by the race pimps and those who believe that White people are the source of their societal ills.
Many White Americans need to stop being so deathly afraid of Black Americans.
Unfortunately the race pimps have made many White Americans so deathly afraid of just speaking to a Black person that they might say something that can be construed as racists.
There may have been a time that Black Americans en masse wanted revenge, but that is not the case now. But, Conservative Black Americans need to speak-up and shout down the Rev. Wright's of the world, and White Americans need to stop freezing up with a deer in the head lights stare every time a Black man or woman walks into the room, we as Americans just might find out we have more in-common than we think.

Stan Redmond| 1.23.09 @ 11:37AM

Appleby:

It stood out to me that you voted with your feet and moved from the democrat utopia of Atlanta. Why that stood out? It use to be we could vote with our feet and move to another state or even another city to leave the failures of liberal controlled regional or state governments. With Obama's plan, power, and innevitable obama youth corps, there soon will be no where to move. Soon, the capitalists, like me and already planning, will vote with their feet by moving productive jobs to low tax low regulation countries and leave this anti-capitalist mess to the liberals who want it this way. And I'll listen to them, with glee, as they whine and moan about the lost jobs we use to provide.

Melvin| 1.23.09 @ 12:06PM

"Pitch whitey back into the ocean." So much for crossing the racial divide.
Shame, if I had posted something like that I would be immediately pilloried and called a racist, but when you're a victim it gives you a societal pass and such comments.

Jeremiah| 1.23.09 @ 12:22PM

Mike, pitch the liberals first then you'll realize we're terrific people. Do not forget the dems started the Indian Wars, created and maintained the KKK and fought a bitter battle against Dr King.
I like this article, now we have a list of most of the demented soul less creatures who haunt this blog!
Make a copy of them and start each reply with a :"Thank You, Peter Molocco, John Ficor, Susan Godstein... and so on....) This way it will get personal.

Obama-nation. It's a spiritual movement, don't ya know? 2 million waving little flags while piped in music is played while we are thinking it was live.
What was the point of the musicians?
THIS is just a preview of things to come. It's just a taste of the "transparency" he promised.
What a joke. A bad one. I'm scared to death of what is to come.

frost| 1.23.09 @ 1:16PM

Seems some of the self-appointed critics of the critics fail to recognize an interesting point or two:
Obama won a higher percentage of the white vote than Al Gore and John Kerry got in 2000 and 2004 respectively. Mississippi now has more black elected officials — not more per capita, more — than any other state.
So much for the racial garbage...

The level of discourse of the libs is rather disturbing. If they have the right ideas, as I assume they believe they do, why not articulate them in a thoughtful way. Instead all we ever hear is one vulgar insult after another. I expect a further coarsening of our culture with this crowd in power. I wrote a little piece on this regard the other day http://alligobbler.blogtownhall.com/2009/01/21/a_contrast_of_character_presidential_transitions_2001_and_2009.thtml

John McCain was not a conservative. Conservativism did not lose in this last election. The people chose socialist over socialist-lite. That's all. We haven't seen real conservativism since RR.

Alan Brooks| 1.23.09 @ 1:57PM

(conservatism was RR
"conservativism" was Dubya)

not that i'm scared of blacks, its just that there's no point of contact; no ability to relate except in a kumbaya fashion.

Alan Brooks| 1.23.09 @ 2:06PM

...that was a response to melvin's comment that whites have to stop being so deathly afraid of blacks.

its not fear, its inability to relate.

Karen| 1.23.09 @ 2:09PM

S.E. has done it again. Got the nail right on the head as usual. All those responses speak for themselves, the irony is comical really. How 'mature' of them.

I'm not sure if liberalism is a religion or a mental illness.

Alan Brooks| 1.23.09 @ 2:38PM

all politics are mental illness, conservatives just don't foam at the mouth as much as liberals do.

we don't chew the edge of the carpet as much.

Michele San Pietro| 1.23.09 @ 3:16PM

It's definitely a mental illness, dear Ruth.

What fun to read that sick output by the illiterate morons "educated" by our teacher union. They are so full of self-esteem. They are forward-looking, progressive - they follow the 160-year old Karl Marx precepts for slavery, terror, poverty. And of course the rule of the enlightened avantgarde, just like in the country from which I escaped some 52 years ago.

Glenn Johnson| 1.23.09 @ 4:18PM

You guys just don't get it, do you. Now that we've elected the first "Carjacker in Chief", whitey is finally going to get what he deserves. After 100 years of carrying we downtrodden brown-people's rear ends, paying for our rent, for our food, for our cable t.v., for our crack cocaine, for the weapons we use to rob and murder whitey at every opportunity, all the while sticking our pointy little fingers in whitey's face and blaming him for every result of our sheer, pathological laziness, justice is FINALLY going to be served on whitey....damn its about time.

Glenn Johnson| 1.23.09 @ 4:27PM

That last comment was meant to be satire but doesn't come across that way.....apologies to anyone offended....

That's all kinds of brilliant!

Glenn, no need to apologize, it came across exactly as meant. And it was funny.

Tarantula| 1.23.09 @ 7:02PM

How about this...After the inaguration there were all the usual balls to that every new president makes the rounds to attend. One is the Salute to Heroes ball, originated by Eisenhower in 1953 to tribute the Medal of Honor winners, the REAL heroes. Every president since then attended this ball. This year there were 49 Medal of Honor attendees, but no Obama. The first time in 56 years. He went were all the movie stars were, but not to where the true American heroes were. This arrorgant snub speaks volumes about this jerk. Even Bill & Hill went to this ball...twice. I hate to say in, but I'm sort of longing for the days of the Clintons....sheesh....

Max Abramson| 1.23.09 @ 9:21PM

Obama and Bush both voted for the PATRIOT Act reauthorization, corporate welfare, war in Iraq, war in Afghanistan, Military Commissions Act, corporate bailouts, and big government. They all talk about balancing the budget, then propose even more new spending programs.

tony| 1.24.09 @ 1:20AM

Times are indeed tough for conservatives right now, but I like to look on the bright side. So for anyone whose down about things, try to imagine the mindset of the Obamaniacs 6 t0 12 months from now when the realization that Obama can't walk on water starts to sink in. Their expectations are so high and his followers (not supporters) have so much invested in him, mostly on an emotional level, that when the day of reckoning comes, as it always does, it will cause a psychic meltdown. Just wait and watch.

it's not he we have to concern ourselves with, it's the meatheads at the bottom.
i don't pay attention to politicians, i pay attention to the masses, the uneducated.
it's Leroy Grover Washington who causes trouble, not Obama.
it is Jose Gonzales who causes trouble, not Obama.
it is Ahmad Akbar Abdul Mohammad al Wayahi who causes trouble, not Obama.
Commies look to corporations to affix blame; libertarians look to govt. to affix blame; i look to troublemakers at the bottom of the cesspool.

tony| 1.24.09 @ 10:56AM

Alan:

I would normally agree with your last statement. Unlike liberals and those who think solutions are best left to others, I know that the source of and answer to any problems in my life rests with me. After all, this is a country built on rugged individualism.

The problem is that O wants to fix it so that we have no choice but to look to Washington. There is no area of the economy that he doesn't want under government control, from healthcare to banking, you name it. For some added fun, we have Congressman Jose Serrano of NY, a hardcore leftist if there ever was one, who wants to repeal the 22 amendment so O can serve forever. While that won't happen, it gives you insight into the aspirations of these people.

So the bottom line is that O will be the source of our problems, along with all the others you mentioned who are waiting for O to fix their lives. But if you read my previous post and you agree with it, then you will see why I'm optimistic.

What is funniest about the comments in your article is not the bombast, but that they missed the point. The article was not about Obama or Democrats or liberals. It was not a political analysis or damning screed. It was a wistful and humorous sort of journal entry that many of us can relate to...
Let those idiots throw more dirt on the grave of their legitimacy.

Karcarius| 1.25.09 @ 3:24PM

In my life I have come to realize that the people who spout racism the most tend to be the most racist.And I would like to respond to a few of these.First,if people would do their research they would see that dems are the ones that put us into this financial crisis,not W.Second,liberals are the ones that always have sob stories.And don't talk to me about someone ducking Vietnam.Can you say Bill Clinton?He ducked even serving period.And don't talk about Katrina or the EIV(oops,it's EIB actually)when you can't even spell those things.And gimmick?What has Obama done in his political career besides spend half of it running for higher office?And liberals are the ones always whinning.Nothing is ever right for them except being angry about something when they probably have never even known true pain.And stop calling people names,it's very unbecoming.And well-programed?How many of you people are enamored by Obamas rhetoric when he really doesn't say anything?And bigoted?That's a useful term that liberals always use.And in WWII 6 million Jews were killed but since WWII 49 million babies have been killed from abortion.I guess Obama doesn't really believe in the right to life huh?So keep naively devouring every scrap of information the MSM tosses you.You'll find out how wrong you were in 3 years.

Bob montgomery| 1.25.09 @ 10:11PM

Has Obama told anybody "You've got to stop listening to Jeremiah Wright!"? "You've got to stop listening to Al Franken!"? "You've got to stop listening to Keith Olbermann!"?

R. Churchill| 1.28.09 @ 12:46PM

OK, I'll admit it. I'm a Democrat. I'll also say that I'm often ashamed to admit it. I'm also a liberal, which I find is becoming a dirty word, not from the ideals the term embodies, but from the inanity displayed by so many who say they are liberals. What more need one say to prove that than "Pelosi and Reid"? Perhaps "Geithner"? The idea of appointing someone who evaded taxes to head the Treasury seems more insane than inane. (Perhaps someone just left that "s" out.) There are many things about which I don't agree with conservatives ... but I've never considered them evil or unintelligent. But, I've come to wonder whether both of those descriptions might apply to my fellow "liberals" and Democrats.

Leslie McColgin| 2.11.09 @ 10:40PM

You describe my comment under your heading of "this sounds like a cult". I said nothing beyond that I was studying how Obama responds to situations and how he communicates and that I found it pragmatically helpful in figuring out how to interface with others in political situations. How in the word is this in the realm of a cult? Do you have any clue what a cult is? I happen to be a professional in the field of communication disorders and study how many people (not just Obama) communicate in terms of pragmatics (an important part of my field). I would hope you would agree that, much like Reagan, the "great communicator", most people at present agree that Obama possesses superior communication skills that are certainly worthy of study and analysis. A lot of my professional career has involved analyzing how people communicate in terms of effectiveness. You throw labels out there like "cult" the way many conservatives throw out propaganda words like socialism, Marxism, etc. You're habits of critical thinking and analysis are sorely lacking.
