Cowboy Ronnie 78 Posted November 14, 2008 COLUMBIA, S.C. - A South Carolina Roman Catholic priest has told his parishioners that they should refrain from receiving Holy Communion if they voted for Barack Obama because the Democratic president-elect supports abortion, and supporting him "constitutes material cooperation with intrinsic evil." Big deal, so they don't get communion. As far as I can tell, it's just a bit of styrofoam wafer and a tenth of a thimble of $3 wine you drink out of the same filthy cup as a bunch of religious loonies, while some teenage boy fondling weirdo pats you on the head.

Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 20, 2008 Ann Nixon Cooper, 106, was the woman named in Barack Obama's acceptance speech back on November 4th. Obama used her lifespan as an example of one who lived to see some of the most dramatic changes in society durning the passed century or so. She will get the recognition if somebody wants to take a chance on her. You might get her as a ghost pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She will get the recogition if somebody wants to take a chance on her. You might get her as a ghost pick. I hope she wasn't the reason you were so keen to get rid of Bevel? I think I suggested her a couple of months ago after Obama's speech. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 20, 2008 I hope she wasn't the reason you were so keen to get rid of Bevel? No, not at all. I just didn't expect Bevel to live so long. I also thought pancreatic cancer was a suitable punishment for the crimes he committed. If he were still living he would still be on there. Everything is always bound to change. Susan Atkins will probably be the next to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrunoBrimley 86 Posted December 23, 2008 This is the new place to discuss Mr. Obama. There was an old one? How'd I miss it? Anyway he's on vacation in a 50 room mansion on the quiet side of the island and is scheduled to take on the sombererity of his grandmothers memorial this week. He paid for the mansion however the tax payers paid for the airfare. The talking heads of television say that nobody can object since he always vacations there---well in that case why are we paying the airfare for him, his wife and children and dozens of secret service persons? At the very least he should pay his own way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAFKAG 70 Posted January 20, 2009 Wow, they shot him!!! Nah, not bloody likely... When Mr Obama was nominated in August, the Secret Service placed its biggest order for bulletproof glass: about five tonnes of “transparent armour” covered in four layers of plastic to withstand bullets, chemicals and flames. As well as the Secret Service there will be 42,500 members of the police, the military, the FBI, the National Guard and other security bodies on duty, with fighter jets patrolling the skies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monoclinic 39 Posted January 20, 2009 Re the Holy Spigit, the French were keen to note that he seemed to slip up on the word "faithful". And yes Harry, I am a little disgusted at the money thrown at this show, I mean inauguration, considering the current global crisis. Being European I am all for the get the newbie in asap and ask the deposed departing head of state to hand over their keys and to shut the door on their way out, P45 or equivalent in hand. No frills, no fuss just tell them to get on with the job they were elected for, sod pomp and circumstance. Good to see he mentioned the healthy mix of religions and non-believers in his speech and promptly followed with about 5 references to God (as in bless America). Anyway I do hope he really does make a difference... The first politician to actually act upon his well scripted thought out words would be a start. Some are born cynical, some achieve cynicalness and other just think all politicians are a crock of sh*t. Whilst on the subject of Shakespeare could anyone tell me if he misquoted the bard? Didn't he say something like now is the winter of our hardship and not discontent? It was a bit difficult to follow with the French translator wittering on and trying to keep up, I may have misheard.

CarolAnn 926 Posted January 20, 2009 "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Actually, the Chief Justice screwed it up, not Obama. They both got confused after Roberts misquoted the center portion of the oath. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted January 20, 2009 I was taken by the fact Obama said in his address, 44 Americans had now taken the Oath of office! For sure it is noted he is the 44th President but Glover Cleveland was both the 22nd and 24th President (the only one to serve two non-consecutive terms) so that means only 43 Americans have taken the Oath of Office! Ah-har, Got-you!!! See, and I'm not per'dantic in any way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
