Not Abiding Obama

In Barack The One Obama's Weekly Address, he went on a full-fledged attack against the insurance agency. And he had this to say: "I will not abide are those who would bend the truth – or break it – to score political points and stop our progress as a country."

Hmm... It sounds to me like the president is a self-loathing human being. He can't abide himself.

(By the way, who is he to say what he can and can't "abide"? Can he abide criticism? Can he abide people pointing out that he is the one telling lies? Can he abide it when people question whether or not he is the chosen One? Can he abide it when people ask him to actually fulfill his campaign pledges? Can he abide it when people say they hope he fails in his efforts to "transform" the country? And what will he do to those he can't abide? What will he do to you, dear reader? What will he do to me? I criticize him, I note that he is the one telling lies, I question whether he is the chosen One, I say he should actually fulfill hsi campaign pledges, and I hope, sincerely hope, that he fails in his efforts to transform the country. Yes, in that sense, I hope he fails. And fails spectacularly. Can he abide me hoping against his change? Can he abide all of us hoping against his change? Obama is using the word "abide" in its secnd sense, meaning "to put up with." The word's first sense, in my Webster's New World Collegiate Dictionary, is "to remain; to go on being." I therefore devoutly hope that Obama does not abide in the White House for very long.)

"I will not abide are those who would bend the truth – or break it – to score political points and stop our progress as a country."

(Said by Obama as he adjusted his crown, fiddled with his royal robes, and imperiously waved his scepter)

This administration is detrimental to this country and "We the People". It is time to take a stand! You either fight for it or get out of the way...

Barack Obama: The Tony Montana of politics. We are being forced into servitude by a malignant sociopath.

Some folks say Barack isn't evil.

I say that history's verdict will be otherwise.

Grzmlyk: You know darn well we CAN'T be forced to do anything. I know you know this--come on now.

I have more confidence in you than you do. What the hell?

You can't go wobbly now.

Quinn,
Thank you.
May I say I am pleased you are peeking to the future instead of regurgitating and chewing cud on the present.

I have stated here in many instances that the gloves worn by our communists are coming off.

They are simply dogs in the front yard, doing what dogs do...BUT what is truly appalling to me is the complicit media. Have you read the Drury novel series including "Preserve and Protect"?

I have read the entire series, and it seems as if it were a prophecy of these days.

Unlike GRZ above, I don't believe we can be "forced" into servitude. I shan't. I shall not kneel, and I shall not be led by a velvet rope.
I believe several dozen million patriots will join with me.
(Of course, I am a Texan. I don't know what folks in the rest of the country will do when the rubber meets the road.)

I wonder just what will kill the proverbial canary in the coal mine.

"Texan" is a patriotic state of mind, Ken--there are many of us, all over the country, who share your sentiments.

Margie| 10.19.09 @ 8:21PM

I live in one of thee most Liberal (putting it lightly) states in the country. But I may as well be a Texan!

Good for you, Angel. If you know any independent truckers, pass them to team America.

Hey obama, ABIDE THIS!

Martin| 10.19.09 @ 7:41PM

Ken the novel you want in that Drury series is "Come Nineveh, Come Tyre" in which the media darling is elected President and collapses US security and the economy within about 3 months.

Obama and Ted Jason are identical, except for skin pigmentation.

Noting that the Left loves to personalize their differences with normal people, I like to return the favor and take it one step beyond: I hope he fails so badly it makes his little girls cry. Then I'll download that from youtube and make it a ringtone.

Angel| 10.20.09 @ 2:44PM

LOL!

martin j smith| 10.20.09 @ 8:11AM

I thought this was what a Obama regime would look like. Thus, I voted "against". Now that a number of fools who voted for him see what they have pole numbers are shifting--but more shifting is needed.
Sadly, for some it will take a disaster to happen to recognize the errorof their ways. For example, in the 1930"s the British people were all for appeasement until their backs were against the wall--then--they stiff-upper lipped it-- and with our help and other fought for their existence. This time it may be too late. Remember this: You can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time."--some the more exposure of what is going on in the White House and the more Obama opens his mouth the better. There seems to be a corrolation between increase in his TV exposure and decrease in his support. S0--keep up with the exposure.

Oldefarte| 10.20.09 @ 12:47PM

Quin, Since I cannot ABIDE BY his totalitarist policies and practices, I too HOPES THAT HE FAILS; and I will do my miniscule part by voting next year for any/all candidates who politically disagree with him!!!!!!!!!!!!!
