    a few thoughts:

    people who claim that America is colorblind and that Obama's skin color has nothing negative to do with the way the public views him are delusional... every bit as delusional as those who would claim that it is all about his race.

    regarding this golf course/vacations/recreations discussion, isn't it really about as meaningful as figuring out how many angels can dance on the head of a pin?

    interesting that you pointed that out to me, but Talon's post #146, to which I was responding, got no such hall monitor-like rebuke. funny, that.

    Sure, a supporter would say that.

    As for me, I was just correcting someone's lie.

    Vacations are needed for the person holding one of the most stressful jobs on Earth.

    I'm just a fan of truth. Mr_Truth proves he's not.

    Is it? Seems pretty non-eventful to me.

    Besides, I was just using you while pointing out the liberal who created another thread claiming all criticism of the president is because of his skin color.

    Which... is apparently important to him, and the many like him in these threads.

    Yet it's controversial enough to have made Haley Barbour apologize for using it.

    What he might've meant isn't as important as how it's taken by the black community Hoosier. So in what context do you think his tar baby comment was taken.......for Barbour to take time out and apologize for using it.

    Just saying dude.

    Right.

    I'd suggest tin ear conservative politicians, like Barbour, attempting to make inroads into the black community in the hope of expanding their base...... stir clear of phrases and terms that might be misconstrued as racist. I doubt the black community would buy your urban dictionary explanation.

    But that's just me and what does a "crazy race card liberal" know.

    Lol wait until Obama pushes amnesty and people get their Obama care bills. Leftist will be lucky to not be spit on after that. Forget about elections. That ship sailed.

    LMAO!! Are you nuts? Bill Clinton raised taxes on the rich in 1993 while he still had a Democrat congress. That's the difference in Republicans and Democrats. The Republicans stand for the rich and corporations and cut taxes every time they get a chance.

    In 1981 When Reagan slashed tax rates to the lowest they had been since the early 1930's and fired the PATCO union was the beginning of the end of America's middle class. Do you folks ever pay attention to anything except Fox News?

    Those world leaders no doubt went there to drink and party. Lots more privacy there than in Washington, DC.

    More likely they went there to conduct a little diplomacy in secret since the home folk might not be happy with some of those agreements. Obama's inability to stay out of the spotlight has already cost him potentially three quite useful deals with the government of Turkey. One of the many reasons Those of us whose legs don't tingle at the idea of America's fist black, or any other president for that matter, believe him to be more than a little narcissistic. That and his constant use of the word I. One of the appealing things about Bush was his willingness to take the blame when things went wrong and share the credit when they went right. Obama on the other hand shifts blame and hogs the credit. Though to date their isn't a lot to take credit for.

    I'm confused... I thought this thread was about Obama playing golf while being black. It's your thread, right? :hmm:

    I caught the part about you being confused. All Republicans are either cutting taxes for the rich, starting a war, thumping a bible, rich or confused....sometimes all of the above.

    And all liberals get away with flame bait threads they take off topic at the first sign of opposition... which in this case was page 1.

    Obama... golf.... race. Ring a bell?

    we're not talking about 2014, we're talking about 2016. Are you suggesting that, because we lost seats in an off year, during an unpopular president's second term, we are supposed to "accept" the fact that we will somehow no longer be competitive in the next election cycle? If that is what you are suggesting, I would say it is YOU who does not "get it".

    More Obama Golf News.
    You’d think with all the time President Obama spends playing golf, he might actually be good at it.

    Not so, says Michael Jordan.

    The Bulls great and avid golfer was asked by Ahmad Rashad(*)on the Back 9 Network about his ideal foursome, and he made a point to say Obama wouldn’t be included.

    “Arnie Palmer. I’ve never played with Obama, but I would. But that’s OK, I’d take him out. He’s a hack. I’d be out there all day playing with him. I never said he wasn’t a great politician, I am just saying he’s a sh—y golfer.”

    Marvin Nicholson, who regularly plays with Obama, told Golf Digest(*)that the president “usually shoots in the mid-90s.”(*)(*)A Golf Concierge list of celebrity golfers has Jordan’s handicap at 4, which means he’s shooting in the mid- to high-70s

    From another Obama race card, to Rove, Romney, Ailes, Bush, Christians, economics and now an anti-Reagan rampage.

    Could you pick a topic and maybe... stick to it ?



    I'm surprised more of your posts don't get removed for being off-topic.... in your own threads.

    No such thing as a loophole, that is just a phrase coined by angry leftwingers. It is all tax law that many democrats set up. BTW, Bush II got rid of some of the 'loopholes' you complain about. Thanks to democrats, those tax laws (Obamacare) will hit the middle class even harder with the expansion of the Cadillac Tax.

    The company I work for has now had two major layoffs this year, not because of the economy but to get ready for the employer Obamacare taxes. Thanks Obama. That's democrats helping the middle class by golly!

    That's a ******ned lie. The reason I left the Republican party after being an avid supporter for thirty years was Reagan. After being a Democrat and the president of a union for most of his life...when his B movies began to make some serious dollars he did a flip-flop into the Republican party as an advocate for low tax rates. Nothing in the history of the United States has ever had more devastating effects on the middle class of America.

    Yeah, lowing taxes on the middle class was terrible. Somehow being able to keep our own money is horrible. Taxing business to encourage them to move overseas is such a great idea. Thanks to democrats all that is being turned around.
