I don't doubt at all that Rooney said that. He's said many controversial things over the years. I remember the media upheaval back then when he was suspended for saying it. Obviously CBS thought he said it, that's why they suspended him.

Rooney has been suspended and punished a number of times over the years. I'm actually very surprised he has lasted on TV so long.

He hasn't a fraction of the charisma of Hitler, and ten times the charisma of Stalin. Have you heard the old recordings of Stalin?

Actually you're right. I meant to say Lenin, not Stalin. (Hillary reminds me of a female Stalin )


"Vladimir Ilyich Lenin"

Again, I think you're exaggerating (big surprise there), and giving Obama a little too much credit. If he were a bonafide personality cult, he wouldn't be fighting for the White House. We'd be saying "McCain who?"

It's definitely a cult of personality.... of sorts.

It's not his policy positions. In fact I've seen TV reporters ask people why they support Obama and no one seems to know any of his policies.

I think a lot of is also the "Magic Negro" syndrome for guilty white liberals.

Did he actually say that? Like, in those words? If he did, fuck it, I'll vote for the man. Just out of respect for his massive balls. But, again, I think you're paraphrasing...and full of shit. Source it, and I'll sit at your right hand and do your bidding. Until then, I'm just pointing and laughing.

In 2002 in the Illinois State Senate, Obama voted against, and later killed in committee the "Induced Infant Liability Act" . That bill would have given legal protections to babies that survived an induced labor abortion or any other type of abortion.

Even NARAL wasn't against the bill.

Here is CBS's attempt to spin the issue on Obama's behalf but they left out some key facts....

It's one thing to be in favor of abortion if you are a politician. It's unconscionable to not want to protect a life that possibly survives such a thing. What a guy.

He goes around calling himself a Christian.

If Americans have demonstrated anything, it's that brains are of incredibly little importance. Jesus, take a look at the Stuttering Cowboy Clap-Clap Show we've had for the last eight years.

Well.... you are completely ignoring the other choice Americans had compared to the Stuttering Cowboy and placing blame on Americans themselves.

Quote:

Maybe the media has been propping up Hillary as a woman of intellect, but they've missed the target audience. Americans don't give a shit about brains. They want a president they "can have a beer with." We just don't idolize smart people.

The smartest of people don't necessarily make good presidents. They often don't even make good leaders. The intellectuals of society are often proven wrong in the hindsight of history.

Democrats were even selling John Kerry as an intellectual and a "smart" person until someone checked his grades at Yale and they were worse than Bush's.

Jimmy Carter was supposed to be some kind of nuclear physicist and look at how that worked out.

People want a leader, not someone who can write mathematical theorums or who understands the most complex physics.
