this thread is about political quotes
I think this one is spot on with todays events.
| Quote: |
Truth Justice and the American way -that's all we ask. I refuse to subscribe to the culture of victimization that plagues white males in this country. The poor and the powerless are not the ones organized to screw me over. |

Or don't like~
Obama Tells Bob Woodward in 2010: “We Can Absorb Another Terrorist Attack”
He goes on to say: “We’ll do everything we can to prevent it, but even a 9/11, even the biggest attack ever…we absorbed it and we are stronger.”
It appears he is still not down for the struggle. |

wiki | Quote: |
The quotation "All men are created equal" is arguably the best-known phrase in any of America's political documents.[1][2] Thomas Jefferson first used the phrase in the Declaration of Independence as a rebuttal to the going political theory of the day: the Divine Right of Kings. It was thereafter quoted or incorporated into speeches by a wide array of substantial figures in American political and social life. |

If you are 20 years old and not a liberal you have no heart, if you are 30 years old and not a conservative you have no brain.

LOL! Hate? Na, don't flatter yourself. As for silence, I think just about everyone on here has basically told you to shut up in one way or another. |

so your non-denial denial is yes you are trying to silence me even with your cry baby I think everyone wants to shut me up.
Are you that stupid.....
Hey Mr. Canadian, still thinking of loading up the van with fertilizer and driving to the USA like McVeigh? And in reality wasn't that a threat from a foreigner. You claim a joke, but again even in airports that type of sicko joke talk lands you in hot water.
and again from where I sit you were stalking me because you can not debate my points, why else would you to gather information on me and then post it on the internet. Is that what you do with friends, or is that because my points are so strong that you escalate to stalking and harassing?
