    Can any of you give us a video clip of this speech?? Please!!

    I can say this----Trent Lott lost out on the Republican chance for President for saying far less than this "mouth" said

    if Nitt Romnee or Sarah Palin made the same derogatory statement the other direction---they could forget the Republican Presidential campaign!!!

    God help us at the leadership we have now in the White House!!!

    Yes, if a Republican made the same statement, it would be twisted and turned into a racially motivated situation. Let's not play the same game. We should be better than that.

    I'm not happy with what he said, but we aren't democrats, so why should we get upset over it? The Dems get upset or are hunting for something someone else has said to get upset about. We are big boys and girls so I would just over look it, we don't have the victim mind set so why act like one and get upset. Just point out all isn't fine in Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.

    Yes, we ARE big boys and girls

    thing about it is

    Us big boys and girls would expect someone with the calibor of holding the office of President of the United States to be a "big boy" also!!! If you hold the office of the POTUS---we don' want your mouth to give indication you're anywhere else BUT the Oval Office----the highest office in the land!!!

    NO,NO,NO!!! When you have lived you life as being a victim, it is hard to change. If others treat you like you treat them, they are not treating you correctly, something should be done about them!!!

    BHO just can't get off that horse.

    The statement started out by Obama stating that the car was in the ditch, and all the Dem's were trying to push it out and the "R" were just standing around watching and doing nothing.

    Well here is the rest of the Story: The Republicans were standing next to the tow truck. They were waiting for the Dems to move away so they could swing the tow hitch down. :smilewinkgrin: :thumbsup:

    I am so tired of the stupid "Republicans drove the car into the ditch" line.

    It was the Democrats that dug the ditch right across the road with the Dodd/Franks etal insistance on the banks handing out mortgages to every applicant with a pulse.

    Both parties have made a mess of things and I have zero confidence in either party fixing things. I pray the Lord will overrule them and fix our country's problems for us.
