I'm honestly in shock! They actually have good things to say about Obama. The world is coming to an end XD

http://news.yahoo.co...l-comfort-zones

Excerpts:

QUOTE
"I want to personally congratulate President Obama and the men and women of the Armed Forces for a job well done," said Donald Trump, who just a week earlier was on his crusade to disprove Obama's American citizenship, in a statement to ABC News. "We should spend the next several days not debating party politics, but in remembrance of those who lost their lives on 9/11 and those currently fighting for our freedom. God Bless America!"

Fox News host Glenn Beck also had some kind words. "First of all, congratulations to President Obama. He got him," the conservative talk show host said in response to the news of bin Laden's death. "Thank you, President Obama, thank you." And Beck's colleague on Fox, Sean Hannity, was no less fulsome in his praise, saying that Obama's leadership of the mission was "gutsy" and "the right thing to do."

I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call center in Pakistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck!!!!!

Oh he is down by 22 points.

So last night's debate. Big winners, and big loosers

In Hannity's mind, the big winners were Cain and Pawlenty, and the big losers were Paul and Johnson

On the internet, the big winners were Paul and Johnson, the big losers were none of the above, Pawlenty, and Rick Santorum. Cain ended up in the middle.

Yes, because it, as the article explains, is a racist thing. I have Native American ancestry so it really bugs me when this kind of thing is done. Obama's people talked about how the pressure to release his birth certificate could have racist overtones, well this is even more overtly racist, it's frankly even more offensive than "Indian" sports mascots- equating a heroic Apache resistor to the brutal racist treatment by whites to a terrorist who has responsible for the slaughter not just of nearly 3,000 people of many nationalities on 9-11-01, but the slaughter of many thousands of Muslims civilians that didn't share his extremist vision of Islam- including infants and young children. Bin Laden's organization has also systematically tried to wipe out communities of Sufi Muslims, who are to Islam what the Quakers are to Christianity- a peaceful, mystical, humanist faith.

I remember when i watched the Animaniacs, back when TV wasn't complete trash. They always said Geronimo when jumping off a plane. xDD

Also this are codewords, i don't know why they use them though. But it wasn't meant as a racist remark, i think is very easy for the dept to just apologize if it caused an insult, rather than starting a fight to which we will never hear the end of it.

Uh, he resisted us and he lost. It's just a codename, if anything the codeword should of been, "Donald". It's just not a big deal. It's people like you that killed off Chief Illini. shamefulcry0js.gif

Your equating this more to Bin Laden then the Apache are.

Well, he is an actor turned politician, so I think it's kinda related. And his comeback is something I think I figured would interest many here. Just wanted to share that's all.
