Yikes. Travel and work.
- Not optimistic about the NK situation.
- So a few deaths of note, a tyrant, a public intellectual of the lesser sort, and and a public intellectual of the greater sort.
- Perhaps a metaphor for government.
- So do you recommend camouflage for the grade points or standing your ground?
- Study the classics.
- One more reason to despise the architects of Obamacare, they engineered the assumption of yet more federal power.
- So, which do you prefer, “love of”, “lack of”, or “too much” … and the rest of the post is worth reading too.
- Iconoclasts in our midst, and btw, the trivial defense is just that, trivial.
- I think it’s just a market twitch.
- Now there’s a surprise, Lada and “best in class” in the same sentence.
- For those who prefer to mock Fox and its coverage. Ooops.
- The world’s grandmaster at estimation in action.
- OK, granting the, err, his premise, then the question might be why does he engage in it so frequently?

Obama has to engage in saving the nation so frequently because Republicans wage class warfare constantly. This is not a difficult issue to comprehend.
The question is, why are you opposed to saving the nation? What do you have against getting the rewards of hard work to Americans who work hard?
Were you under the misapprehension that you are among the 1%?
Ed,
Is that reply parody? Truly? Look, Obama’s modus operandi is make rhetorical protestations against at thing, such as class warfare for example, and then having done so … engage in it himself. And in reference to a post where Mr Obama is declaiming class warfare here in his defence … you engage in class warfare. This a key cornerstone of his rhetorical method and it is blatantly dishonest and highly cynical to boot.
Do you really think money and salary is a zero sum gain. If I make more, you make less? Truly?
And no, I don’t think I’m in the “1%”. I truly don’t care if I am or not. I’m making enough and that is sufficient for me. This jealousy over the wealth of others is a big thing for y’all Dems on the left of the aisle. But where you aware that social unrest is not statistically correlated with wealth disparity? Why do you think it is?
No more and no less than your original remark.
I’m sorry. That’s dead wrong. Obama has never done that. He’s asked for fair taxes, not taxes unfairly soaking the rich. The truth is that we’ve engaged in a government-sponsored, socialist transfer of wealth over the past decade — from the middle class, working and poor, to the wealthy.
No society that does that can survive. Louis XVI discovered that, and rather lost his head on the issue — and Europe was plunged into 50 years of warfare. We engaged in just such transfers through the 1920s, and ended up with a dozen years of lost productivity, lost income, lost families, ended only by another blood-curdling war.
History warns us we cannot keep on this path without great, damaging consequences.
I didn’t start the fight. But I’ll be damned, and so will our nation — and so will you — if we don’t turn it around.
There is no law that says we cannot call for justice when the wealthy go after orphans and widows. In fact, Christians are called to fight for justice in these cases. What in the world are you thinking?
What would Jefferson do? What would Washington do? What would Jesus do? You choose the opposite? Why?
Sorry about the formatting issue. A little thought can sort it out.
Bottom line: Saving the nation is not “class warfare,” and shame on you for saying it is.
