In Reply to: Pink's Dear Mr. President. sm - LVMT
It made me tear up. My granddaughter *caught me* and wanted to know what was wrong. I just told her I heard a very sad song that was unfortunately very true. She wanted to hear it, and I played it for her, as well. Thanks for posting this. Pink is in good company. There are more and more of us every day that he can't/won't walk with.

Beautiful song...sm
My favorite part was when she says...
'Let me tell you about hard work.'
yes...that song was on there.
There actually were two of those videos created and the first one was taken off of youtube as well. I wish they would make it without music then because it had some good information that I think people should see especially since the media is too busy kissing Obama's butt that they really don't give all the facts.....just the ones that make Barrack Uhhhbama look like a god.
You just made me think of that song
Ancient of Days.
I am not scared of the end times, I am just scared for those that do not know him. I sometimes wonder if we will have a moment of great grief before we pass into heaven when we look back and see all of those whom we didn't speak with or wouldn't hear of it. Like I tell my parents all the time "I don't want to be able to say I told you so"
Fat lady starts her song!
You know it has to be pretty darned bad when virtually all you see on the left-wing blogs is searing criticism of Democratic congresscritters. And I have to say, I absolutely agree with them. I'm still partial to progressive values but let's face it, elected Democrats are worthless, and have been since 2000, if not long before.
I have to wonder if that's been part of the plan all along, and if there are not much larger forces than the RNC focused on literally destroying America, her political system, her people and her former glory. With Alito's confirmation it's a done deal. The right can yuk it up all it wants and assume a smugness off the scale - but they don't appear to be aware that it's their nation too that is being dismantled. What is their powerful, pushy, money-grubbing and quasi-criminal majority party without a strong minority to watchdog it?
There's only one answer, and it is bad news 99% of the American people.
So let the fat lady sing over America's flag-draped coffin. Enjoy the song, enjoy the carnage, pop the champagne corks - it's all one big party now.
The Bush was not elected song is getting old.
To truly prove you are not bitter, try not mentionig it again. It seems the left has enough problems with Bush without bringing that up. JFK was not legally elected either. Historians now know that Illinois was bought for him by papa. Life goes on. But the bitterness of carrying around a load of rage just never seems to leave.
Obama song - way too creepy
Anyone seen the kids singing the Obama song. It's way way creepy. They're all dressed in their little uniform and doing hand gestures and you can definitely tell the kids do not know what the lyrics mean. It was on the Obama website but after so many negative comments they took it off. One commenter on AOL wrote "it is eerie. What on earth are children doing praying to a candidate? I'm not sure what bothers me the most: Is it their glassy-eyed stares? Is it their Children of the Corn-fed good looks? Their hyptonized vibrato-less tones? Someone else wrote "This has more than a little whiff of Havana and Moscow about it". And another commenter wrote "These kids are already being taught to worship Obama as if he were some kind of god. That's what kids in North Korea, Cuba, Saddam Hussein's old Iraq, and other totalarian regimes were taught to do as well. The purpose is if they grow up seeing their leaders as god-like they're less likely to rise up against them." (now that's one of the best observations I've read).
Anyway...here is the link and you can see for yourselves. Don't watch it before bed unless you don't mind nightmares.

Same song, 500th verse.
It is racist to conclude that any black man within earshot of Rev Wright MUST be a black liberationist. NOT.
Reminds me of that song be happy
Although reading your post I do have to say I think you've been hitting on the ju-ju juice a little too much. HA HA HA
We are not ALL "proud" of Obama. Proud that he's legally hiding his birth certificate. Proud that he had his school records legally sealed so nobody can see that he may have possibly gotten aid as a foreign student. Proud that he stole the election from Clinton. Not everyone in the world admires him (there are plenty of countries who believe we were duped and bought into the "rapture" of electing a black man that we didn't want to investigate him and who he is and how he got as far as he has and who is behind him, and why in the world anyone would vote for someone that doesn't have any experience. There are many countries now questioning his ability to lead by the people he is surrounding himself with. And as our own newly elect VP Joe Biden said "Mark my words, it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy".
As for him demonstrating
"purity of the heart". I have not seen anything to demonstrate that yet. I do know that Farrakhan seems to think he's the messiah, so maybe that it where people are getting that mixed up. Doen't make it true, however.
I'm glad your happy and I'm not taking that away. But soon I think once the effects of the kool-aid wears off you might see things a bit more clearly.
Not all of us feel joy and pride. We feel fear, uncertaintly, hopelessness, loss, despair, nervousness, doubt, worry, anxiety, and trepidation (and please don't tell me I should take medication for that). These are all real issues that we are facing. We are losing our homes, jobs, savings, retirements and everything we worked for and here comes the O saying "I feel your pain. I'm going to make it all better for you" and people buy into it without question. "How are you going to do that we say, what will you do for us right now so we don't get kicked out of our houses". "Well I'm going to tax all those nasty rich people that don't need it and give it all to you" "Yeah, hooray, Obama is my savior. I will never have to work or worry anymore how to pay for things I want."
So, go ahead and be happy. I have to live in reality.
P.S. - It's not the age of aquarium (unless I want some fish). It's the Age of Aquarius which deals with astrology. So maybe the O is from another planet. HA HA.
It is like the old song Love and Marriage
You can't have one without the other.
President Obama inherited the nightmare that was created by George W. Bush. You cannot talk about what President Obama is doing without discussing the fact that George W. Bush and his cronies destroyed this country.
Does anyone know the words of Mick Jagger's new song...
"No Sympathy for the Neocons?" Would love to have the lyrics but am afraid of getting a virus while chasing the internet. New rightwing criticism, of course!
The song is called "Sweet Neocons."
whoops!
Excuse me, but to quote an old song loosely...
*What does love have to do with it?* A LOVE affair...oh PLEASE. But I also digress.
Please to take a look at the Libby thing. From top to bottom. Judith Miller also could not remember all of her conversations. She did not get prosecuted for perjury. They did not even call Armitage (who actually DID the leaking) as a witness. That is because the prosecutors, Fitzgerald and Comey, had a personal bone to pick with Libby. Libby was the lawyer for Marc Rich (yep, one of Clinton's more famous *hail mary* pardons)...cost them a really big case. Then to add insult to injury, Clinton pardoned him. There were all kinds of sour grapes there. It is obvious to me it was a malicious prosecution. Level playing field? You ARE kidding, right??? Armitage, the actual leaker, the person they were SUPPOSED to be after, admitted it, and is a free man today, and who is going to jail? The whole thing REEKS. That being said, I did NOT call for Libby to be pardoned. I said why not, based on what the Dems did for Clinton and what Clinton did for Marc Rich, convicted FALN terrorists to name a few in his little pardon spree. What is Libby lying (or jurors thinking he lied) in comparison to that?? What I said was that Dems should not be up in arms about it if he IS, because they have been accepting of it wholesale on their side. That is ALL I said.
And as to letting Clinton's debacle rest...if Dems will stop the hypocrisy and cying foul when the other side is caught doing things they have excused on their own side, you will hear nothing from me. However, if they continue the hypocrisy, I will continue to point it out. There is no statue of limitations on keeping it fair, at least in my opinion.
That should be Obama's new campaign song - Desparado
Sure fits their campaing right now.
dorky song threat realized
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPBxmrWqI-g&feature=related
Great song. Glad to see our talented artists are sm
having the courage to send a message.
McCain's theme song - Twist and Shout.
Biden's point was that whomever is elected President will be tested, and he feels that Obama is more qualified to deal with it than McCain. Once again, the McCain camp has twisted Biden's words to suit their own agenda.
Let's not forget Sarah Palin's hit song, It's Witchcraft.
You wacky right wingers crack me up!
RNC Candidate Distributes Controversial Obama Song
RNC candidate distributes controversial Obama song |
By Reid Wilson |

RNC candidate Chip Saltsman's Christmas greeting to committee members includes a music CD with lyrics from a song called "Barack the Magic Negro," first played on Rush Limbaugh's popular radio show.
Saltsman, a personal friend of conservative satirist Paul Shanklin, sent a 41-track CD along with a note to national committee members. |
"I look forward to working together in the New Year," Saltsman wrote. "Please enjoy the enclosed CD by my friend Paul Shanklin of the Rush Limbaugh Show."
The CD, called "We Hate the USA," lampoons liberals with such songs as "John Edwards' Poverty Tour," "Wright place, wrong pastor," "Love Client #9," "Ivory and Ebony" and "The Star Spanglish banner."
Several of the track titles, including "Barack the Magic Negro," are written in bold font.
The song, which debuted on Limbaugh's show in late March 2007, latches onto an opinion column in the Los Angeles Times of the same title. That column, penned by cultural critic David Ehrenstein, argued that Obama could serve as a balm to whites who felt guilty about past treatment of African Americans.
Limbaugh first highlighted the column the day it ran, according to a contemporary report by Media Matters, the liberal watchdog agency. Media Matters reported Limbaugh repeated the phrase more than two dozen times the day the column ran.
The following month, Shanklin debuted his version of the song, sung to the tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon" and performed in Shanklin's impression of AL Sharpton.
"See, real black men, like Snoop Dogg, or me, or Farrakhan, have talked the talk, and walked the walk, not come in late and won," one verse in the song says.
Saltsman said he meant nothing untoward by forwarding what amounts to a joke more at Ehrenstein's expense than at Obama's.
"Paul Shanklin is a long-time friend, and I think that RNC members have the good humor and good sense to recognize that his songs for the Rush Limbaugh show are light-hearted political parodies," Saltsman said.
Republicans searching for ways to attack Obama have been hesitant to embrace any reference to his race. Limbaugh presciently predicted his allusion to the column nearly two years ago would win attention from left-leaning organizations that would suggest he was using Obama's race against him.

That was beautiful!!!
Only Robin Williams! I'm gonna laugh over that for a week!!! Thanks for the post!!!
It was not only beautiful...
...it was smart.
Just on this board alone, look at the amount of unadulterated, vicious hatred aimed at this man. It's palpable. Someone with hatred like this could easily take these girls' father from them forever. By writing this letter, he leaves behind a piece of himself for them that NONE of his haters can ever take away.
Beautiful! Thank you. nm

She's beautiful! (nm)
What is not beautiful?
I do realize a lot of people are sold into the hollywood mold of how women are "supposed" to look, but, I'm not. Michelle has her own unique, natural beauty. Does everybody have to look alike in order to be attractive? She has a beautiful shape to her face, gorgeous eyes, an elegant nose and a somewhat crooked grin - she's beautiful.
Both are very beautiful women. nm

and she has a beautiful heart
to go along with her beautiful self
Beautiful, folksy won't cut it
Be careful what you wish for, you may get it.
Beautiful !! .. Thank you for sharing.
nm
She's beautiful and looks fantastic...
she has a style all her own and she looks great in sleeveless dresses. If anyone was trying to copy Jackie O - it would be Nancy Regan with her little red suits and pillbox hats......
Very beautiful and eloquent
What a beautiful picture.
He was the most beautiful of the angels
part of his allure!
beautiful post! nm

that was a beautiful post and right sm
on point!
Beautiful - O just doesn't get it - nm

B. Bush and her beautiful mind...
...as summed up by Mike Malloy, somewhat akin to the Alien Queen protecting her brood of flesh-incubating pointy-toothed destroyers of humanity and inflicting the horrid spawn gleefully on the rest of us. Beautiful indeed, in a fascinatingly horrible way, that Alien Queen.
I think she did a good job and I think they are a beautiful family...
wish they did not lean so far to the left. That being said...she is very attractive and articulate and obviously loves her family, and you can't fault someone for that.
You are right, both sides have beautiful families sm
Obamas/Biden's and McCain/Palin.
Though, I don't know how real Cindy McCain is.
Shelly, what a beautiful answer! sm
It shows you have had time to come to conclusions, not just answering off the cuff like me. Good for you!
Beautiful posts and I agree with all of you
We need to come together regardless of our personal feelings about the outcome of this election. I believe both candidates are sincere in their desire to do what's best for our country. Something that helps me remember God is ultimately the one in control is to pray "Thy will be done."
"Obama and his beautiful family..."
He's so dreamy....*swoon*
LOL
The beautiful thing about America...
is that I don't have to support the president any more than democrats had to support Bush. I can dislike him for ANY reason at all. That is a right that my husband fights to protect. What you are stating is something that happens in other countries--which I am a little afraid of happening here. I am VERY patriotic--more than most. I will be having a child alone because my husband is in Iraq right now. I absolutely DO NOT have to support Obama to be patriotic.
Very beautiful, very classy lady. (nm)
Portland, Oregon. Beautiful day out.
LOVE IT HERE!!! We are almost at 10% unemployment rate. People are shopping, but more looking than buying. There are still a lot of people eating out at the high end restaurants, costing anywhere from 13.00-24.00 a plate. I do not see a recession here. People still out and about and driving to places. I know lots of people who are going away out of state for spring break.
I live in the burbs of Oregon in a city of 42,000. My family is getting ready for maybe a slight depression coming in the economy. I am currently taking a CERT training course in our city. To save money, my husband takes the bus in and then the MAX (electric train) into downtown Portland to work. Basically costs him nothing for gas as the company pays for it. Worry about hubby losing his job, although he says he is stable for now. I know other families who are out of work, but yet they seem to be just going along their normal business as some say they are in shock still. Hopefully their money does not run out.
My husband has been laid off about 5 times in 24 years of marriage. I know what it is like for hubby to be out of work and the last time was back in 2002 for 6 months. He is in IT. All those layoffs were in the ugly desert and he** hole spot of Phoenix, AZ for 21 years of marriage and 26 years of my life. Three seasons, spring for 2 months, summer and then he** for most of the year. Talk about living in the city! We are glad to be out of there. You either like or you HATE IT! Still have lots of family living there. The housing is horrible in Phoenix. There was a lot of greed and many out of staters bought second homes in Phoenix thinking they could sell in a year or two and make money. Guess what happened? Just about everyone had the same idea and so many with subprime loans.
Knowledge is a beautiful thing...and can be eery too.sm
OMG, the coincidental things especially in the introduction were bone chilling.
And the intimidation of witnesses who didn't corraborate the the Boeing 77 in the Pentagon.
How about the rep. for the steel engineering company (the company that makes the steel for the Boeings) being fired after saying that it would take 3000 degree heat for it to poof go up in air without a trace.
Thank you, thank you for posting this. I've always felt in my gut that there was more to this story. I'm not saying that islamic terrorist weren't involved, but it wouldn't be the first time that our government has worked with them.
It's a beautiful thing to see dems out in force

They were all so perfect. Warm, beautiful, proud.

Beautiful psalm, written by David
This is a beautiful psalm, written by David, not by G-d, and therefore, is not part of Jewish law.
Beautiful birds...thank you very much. But, make it Mr. Peacock, will you?
The females aren't as gorgeous, and the males don't go around laying eggs.
Oh dear. I cracked myself up. See, you can't insult me, dearie. I've been insulted by experts - and you're an amateur.
Beautiful speech made a long time ago
No, this isn't a Ron Paul speech but he brought this speech to the attention of Congress, trying to make a point to their greedy sorry behinds. Just take the time to read it..... it is still true today.
http://www.ronpaul2008.com/articles/1111/not-yours-to-give/
no matter how you feel about her... How beautiful is the Palin family!
Just saw them all at the RNC sitting there, so beautiful! Not sure about Cindy McCain's outfit, but she's also soooo classy, did anyone notice how she sat next to the middle daughter who was holding the baby and Cindy was stroking the baby's head and watching him soooo sweetly.
Real people, I love it :)
PS this isn't meant to be a political post, so hopefully nobody gets distressed... it was just an American Family I was saying was nice looking and it's nice to see in all the crap going around you know...
Divert attention from the facts - look at the beautiful exterior of the car (sm)
Don't bother looking under the hood or at the past maintenance records - if the customer gets distracted with things like that, or how much the payments are, etc., just do a little song and dance and say things about how the customer obviously doesn't like blue cars. If that doesn't work, flinch and wiggle til they are so frustrated they want to buy the car just to get you to go away!! That's the ticket!
Blah, blah, one can certainly decide if a person is beautiful or not..nm
