Obama also praises himself more than any politician that I have ever seen. If only he was 1/8 as good as he thought he was.

During last year’s campaign, Michelle Obama and her defenders insisted that her phrase “For the first time in my adult life I’m proud of my country” (for supporting her husband) was unfairly wrenched from its context. Maybe, though she said it more than once. But President Obama’s indictment of the U.S. before the U.N. suggests identical sentiments. “I took office at a time when many around the world had come to view America with skepticism and distrust,” the president said. And mostly, it seems, those views were justified. America had acted “unilaterally, without regard for the interests of others.” Addressing himself directly to America’s critics, the president began with, “For those who question the character and cause of my nation . . .” He could have mentioned the Marshall Plan, the Berlin Airlift, the billions spent on fighting AIDS in Africa, tsunami relief, the Green Revolution, and defeating Nazism and Communism, just for starters. But that’s not what the president had in mind. “I ask you to look at the concrete actions we have taken in just nine months. On my first day in office, I prohibited without exception or equivocation the use of torture by the United States of America. I ordered the prison at Guantanamo Bay closed.” The audience, composed in part of regimes that pluck out the eyeballs of political enemies and hack off the hands of suspected thieves, applauded vigorously.

So when Obama wanted to give the 'study hard' speech to kids and conservatives complained that the school districts were indoctrinating children, the mainstream media and leftists scoffed at them. Such a ridiculous notion, they said, no one is out to brainwash these little students.

The part that offended me the most, easily, was the "red and yellow, black and white, they are equal in his sight" -- so now we have Obama taking the place of Jesus. This is an epidemic. And it needs to be stopped.

I don't have a problem teaching kids about Obama. I don't have a problem about teaching them about the historic nature of Obama's election. I do have a problem anointing him as The One Who Is, Was, and Is To Come.

I can just see the look on the Walmart cashier's face when you try to convince them that your euros are better than dollars.

It's very strange that you are just now converting dollars to euros. The euro has been more valuable than the dollar since at least 2002 and probably before.. I guess that you are just smarter than the 3rd graders singing their little song about the President but then I forget that you are a true conservative.

Maybe I'm just dumber as those 3rd graders, but I'm having a hard time following that sentence.

Yes, but back in 2002 I was buying into the idea that the deficit would get turned around at some point again...now Obama is talking of running up deficits that'll put us at least $30-40 trillion in the hole.

As for Wal-Mart, I just use the debit card...visa can do the currency conversion for me.
