A garbage book by a garbage President! I can't believe I wasted so much time reading this trash!
of goodwill—who
Obamaspeak: "of goodwill" means "agrees with my agenda"
Worst of all, it will mean fewer opportunities for younger Americans, a decline in the upward mobility that’s been at the heart of this country’s promise since its founding.
BULLSHIT! This is scare-tactics hyperbole! Many/most young people today have opportunities in technical fields working with computers. Most schools in America teach computer skills in the classroom. There weren't evem PCs when I went to school. This guy is an IDIOT!
States can limit annual tuition increases at public universities.
are you kidding me? so it's okay that professors should not expect pay increases and colleges cannot be allowed to kee up with inflation in expenses? this guy talks out of both sides of his mouth!
labor laws and tax laws that restore some balance to the distribution of the nation’s wealth, and
marx would be so proud! "restore" balance??? Damned Socialista!
labor laws and tax laws that restore some balance to the distribution of the nation’s wealth, and
Directly out of Obama's book... "the Audacity of Hope" which I am FORCING myself to read... How can any educated person say he is not a Socialist?!
spread the wealth around.
but a plan for universal health-care coverage would do more to eliminate health disparities between whites and minorities than any race-specific programs we might design.
The REAL reason he pushed through Obamacare! Like Joe Wilson, the true Patriot called him... LIAR!
Any strategy to reduce intergenerational poverty has to be centered on work, not welfare—not only because work provides independence and income but also because work provides order, structure, dignity, and opportunities for growth in people’s lives.
Wow!!! Something I can agree with! Woohoo!
One of our team called me over and showed me a yellowing poster taped to the wall. It was a relic of the Afghan war, we were told: instructions on how to hide explosives in toys, to be left in villages and carried home by unsuspecting children.
I want someone to provide proof of this. This would clearly be a war crime and proof that Russia engaged in it. Somehow I do not believe this is true. This guy clearly makes up crap for the effect and the gullible Liberals eat this stuff up. Why isn't Jane Fonda and Baba Streisand foaming at the mouth just over this one sentence from their messiah alone???
If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.”
I agree with "help," but Matthew 26:11 says it much better than the Obamanation or JFK understood... There will always be poor. We cannot buy them all out of poverty. That was the Communist ideal, which has proven over and over to be a failure.
We will have to align our policies to help reduce the spheres of insecurity, poverty, and violence around the world, and give more people a stake in the global order that has served us so well.
I don't think Karl Marx or Lenin could have said it any better. How can anyone doubt that this guy is a Socialista?!
First, we should be skeptical of those who believe we can single-handedly liberate other people from tyranny.
I agree... Not too many things he says can I agree with, but he's finally said something true.
In almost every successful social movement of the last century, from Gandhi’s campaign against British rule to the Solidarity movement in Poland to the antiapartheid movement in South Africa, democracy was the result of a local awakening.
But in most cases completed with outside help you moron!
freedom from fear.
Since the Obamanation has been in office, there is plenty of fear in this country... Fear that this country will cease to exist as we know it! This idiot has done more to divide this country than anyone in American history.
For example, the United States and other developed countries constantly demand that developing countries eliminate trade barriers that protect them from competition, even as we steadfastly protect our own constituencies from exports that could help lift poor countries out of poverty.
I bet US unions loved this one!
people—harsh medicine that we Americans would have difficulty administering to ourselves.
He does not have a clue about Americans and our ability to deny ourselves when hard times come. He learned nothing from our history... Look at World War II. We took huge austerity measures and were glad to do it for our country. This jerk grew up and has his head up his entitlement ars! The only Americans that would truly have a problem with austerity measures are the very people he is training to be dependent upon the government: The 47%!!!
a mosquito net that prevents malaria
callousness toward others tends to spread among ourselves.
Very true
