CHRISTIANS STUNNED THAT AN ORNAMENT OF MAO ZEDONG HANGING ON THE WHITE HOUSE CHRISTMAS TREE
TheCypressTimes.com ^ | 12/26/2009 | Staff
Posted on Saturday, December 26, 2009 8:25:31 AM by Patriot1259
If these reports are true, President Obama has shown a profound disrespect for Christianity and the message of the Christ-child which was heard so loudly on Christmas morning; "Peace on earth, goodwill toward man."
Both organizations are calling for the ornament to be removed and an apology to be issued by the White House to all people of faith, Christians and the Chinese people, many of whom are still in prison because of Mao's policies.

I guess this story is picking up steam.

first five words sum it up very well....

he's printing money like a drunken sailor, amping up the afghan war, and a million other bad moves...
and these groups choose NOW to scream and throw a hissy fit.

more right wing nutjobs with nothing better to do

So the fact that our president apparently has a Mao fetish is no big deal to you?

for all we know it not even true ,i think we have more important things to worry about

You dont worry about the economic destruction Obama is causing or much else other than finding fox clips or palin news, so I thought you might be worried about this.
-
i put the palin clips on because i know thats your hero :D :D :D

My hiostorical/political hero is George S. Patton Jr. Everyone knows that.

why are christians and some people on this site so f'ng stupid as to think Obama has anything to do with the ornaments on a christmas tree?
-
Ok so barry didn't decorate the tree...some asshole from his staff did, and thought a Mao ornament was a good idea. I have no idea if its true but why would that surprise anybody if it was. He's a worthless douchbag.

Palin is still the top repub contender for 2012. This ornament isn't gonna run for prez in 3 years.
These groups said nothing about anything else... but you allow an ornament, and they're crying suddenly.

Palin is still the top repub contender for 2012.
Bullshit. She's completely unelectable. She's been attacked and smeared (rightly and wrongly). And quitting her job when things got really tough makes her even more unappealing. Her most helpful role for 2012 would be supportive, such as fundraising.
-
She's still at 20% on intrade.com, along with Pawlenty and Romney.
And she is the most recognizable repub (mccain being too old to run now, and W with his two terms already).
I'm a registered repub (many here forget that) and Bush got my vote twice, Dole once. I was very disappointed when the GOP failed to put 2 qualified candidates on the ballot in 2008. (Cue people to say Biden's 30 years in senate or Obama's law degree were inadequate... as if defending one turd is any defense to this Barr 2008 voter).

exactly - it's all the stuff she's done to herself (her own words and her own actions) that have made her a complete joke

She didn't want the "lame duck" term spoil her legacy, that's why she quit.. :P

the term RINO mean anything to you 240? maybe thats why ppl forget on here
-
"the term RINO mean anything to you 240? maybe thats why ppl forget on here"
The majority of republican primary voters (typically the most far-right of the bunch) selected a "RINO" in Mccain.
So does this mean the majority of republican voters are, in fact, repubs in name only?

just depends on where you land on the political spectrum mccain was a through and through conservative next to your liberal obama campaigning ass ;)
-
No, youre changing the subject tony.
In the repub primaries, Republican voters rejected the far-right candidates and chose a RINO. It wasn't anything about obama - they had plenty of good repubs to choose and it came down to 75% of the candidates being RINOs in the final 4 (Rudy, Romney, mccain, and huck).
Repubs wanted a RINO. It would have been Romney otherwise, and he was a national healthcare, anti-gun, pro-amnesty lib too.

yep - and after getting their ass handed to them in the last election the people running the party decided the "problem" was that they weren't far enough to the right and now we've got the fringe element basically running the party and the moderates have nowhere to go.

your missing the point 240 to some Romney maybe a RINO to others he may be far right depends on where you fall in the political spectrum. k
-
I'm saying the registered Republican voters ignored centrist and far-right repubs.
They let it come down to a 4 guys - and 3 of them had huge history of lib voting.
They picked a RINO. I don't think ANYONE considered Romney "Far right".

LOL I think he really played the war hero card during the primaries tbo but ya ill agree this past election was a cluster fuck of epic proportions. This doesnt change the fact that you my friend are a RINO just deal with it 240 ;)

How stupid are you straw? Serious - your idiocy no knows no bounds.
McLame won the primaries because the early ones were in open primaries where non-reps could vote.
Additionally, this election was a referendum on Bush, not an ideological election on right vs left. McLame lost because he was associated with Bush and people were ready for somwething different.
As far as your claimingf that far right candidates dont win that us utter crap.
Reagan won two masdsive landslides by going right. Bush was thought to be a right winger when he was not and gore and kerry were considered liberal homos like yourself.
When the issue is left vs right, the right always wins.
BTW - what is a moderate republican and what do they stand for in your never-humble opinion?
-
"McLame won the primaries because the early ones were in open primaries where non-reps could vote. "
There were 56 states or other districts that held primaries:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)_presidential_primaries,_2008
mccain won 37 of them. Romney won 11.
huck, the only "somewhat" true conservative of the bunch, only won 8 states - including the first one, iowa.
Conservatives like tandredo, RPaul, Hunter and Thompson were IGNORED by republican voters. The lib candidatess won 48 of the available 56 elections held. You can't blame that on crossover voting, my friend.
-
33 and tony,
IN 2000 and 1980, the country decided it was tired of liberal BS and elected a true conservative. It was a conservative they wanted.
In 2008, repub voters DID NOT WANT A CONSERVATIVE. Accept it. When they want one, they have no problem nominating one. In 86% of the 2008 primary votes, the same repub voters that chose Bush and reagan - chose mccain.

Look I voted for Romney but the establishment, the media, etc were all behind McLame because mushy moderates never win shit.
Other than RP who got shit canned by the media, there were no real conservatives to get exzcited about. Huck? GMAFB!
The dem was likely to win no matter who was up there and people were sick of Bush.
The MSM was also knee padding 24/7 for Obama since the primaries and helped him sell his fradululent programs and agenda. You yourself bought into hook line and sinker.
-
reagan won landslides by getting the dem vote the "Reagan Democrat" was aname used to describe a Democratic voter who had voted for Reagan in 1980 and 1984 and for George H.W. Bush in 1988, producing their landslide victories. ;D
-
McLame was not a conservative.
Obama was a media darling and ran on a platform of pie in the sky garbage that idiots like straw, lurker, mons, blacken sucked up. They are used to sucking things, so this was no different.
Obama was a product solely of msm knee padding, fraudulent marketing, and wall street money. The rest is bs.

And if the GOP runs Thune, you will have Thune democrats because people are already getting sick of this garbage we have today. If UE is still around 10%, Barry wont even survive a primary from Hillary.

good i wanted hillary in the first place

Mccain led at 51% Intrade, and in many of the polls, in early Sept 2008. Without a questionable VP selection and the economic collapse, he could have easily won.
Fred Thompson was PLENTY conservative, and much to be excited about - nearly a household name (more than obama!) and "that law and order guy!"
Ron paul had more people excited (from both parties!) then Obama himself at that time.
FOX was kneepadding for mccain, romney and guiliani. You know it, and I know it. if a devoted repub like yourself chose a watered down lib RINO like Romney over a true conservative... then you can't blame dem voters. You have to blame repub voters (who will hopefully select a true competent conservative in 2012).

240 - when McLame went along with TARP and suspended his campaign it was over. It had nothing to do with Palin.
Also, McLame had a lame GOTV effort. I was involved in the 2000 and 2004 campaigns and those were like BMW's comnpared to a chrysler.
-
it had everything to do with palin when they first announced her he got a big bump no nobody really knew who she was,but after one or two interviews it was all over. lets face it the you bet ca and winks are only going to work on a few people

Blacken, put your palin hatred aside for a moment. As a member of a VRWC, I kniow why McLame lost and you cant ignore these:
1. Suspending the campaign.
2. "Fundamentals of the economy" fiasco
3. Horrible campaign.
4. He's old as dirt and ugly
5. Obama successfully hiung the Bush label around McCains' neck.
6. MSM 24/7 knee padding for Obama
7. Huge youth and minority turn out.
8. Bush fatigue.
9. Dislike from the RW.
10. "McCain will tax your health care"
You can bash palin all you like, but the above factors were far more important.
-
she's raised serious questions about John McCain's judgment, become too much of a national punch line and reinforced concerns about McCain's age

Over 6 million votes worth? I dont think so.
His judgement was also qwuestioned when he suspended the campaign, stood for nothing, etc. His support for tarp pissed off the gop base like myself.
My vote was solely an anti-obama vote. I cant stand McLame! However, most people are not diehards like myself and go with the popular winds. Obama had the mojo going for him and his timing was flawless.
-
"240 - when McLame went along with TARP and suspended his campaign it was over. It had nothing to do with Palin. "
"nothing"? You're saying not a single voter changed their vote from mccain to obama because of palin? (Remembering 60% of polled 2008 voters said she was not prepared to be VP even)
I don't talk politics with many people at all - but I do know 2 people who told me (at first) they would vote mccain because a woman may someday be in the white house. Then, they later told me they didn't think she was ready to be prez, and they voted obama.
Maybe they are the only 2 voters in america who did this.
-
i think if they wanted to pick a woman, Snowe of Maine would have given him a better chance. at lease she's intelligent

Straw - what does a "moderate republican" believe in?
are you talking about a politician or a voter?
I don't think any politician has the balls to admit they are moderate since the current witch hunt started after the last election.
Here's a moderate Repub who was fiscally conservative and relatively moderate/progressive on some key social issues:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dede_Scozzafava
She'd be in Congress right now if it weren't for the teabaggers (good or bad - all a matter or perspective).
teabaggers = bad for Repubs and good for Dems

what does that mean?
If Repubs had half a brain they'd figure out the middle of fucking BIG and the fringe at either end is small.
this is not a "strategy" it's just the way people actually are in real life
you and the other teabaggers are in the small fringe of the population

really - I thought it was mostly Bush and the last 8 years of far right wing kookery
you seem in complete denial that the country has no interest in going farther to the right
haven't you previously stated that your ideal for government would be total gridlock where nothing gets done and eventually a new government that does almost nothing?
do you think most of the people in this country share your "vision"?

Thats exactly why you are complete idiot. Serious, you are a joke if you think there is any difference whatsoever between Obama/Bush/Clinton/Reid/Pelosi etc.
Bush was not a right winger you fool. He was more liberal than Clinton.

wow - you really do live in your own little world of make believe don't you?
If Bush was not a right winger they who is a right winger?
If Obama, Bush, Clinton are all the same then what makes you think the country is clamoring for far right wing, teabagger nutjob instead of one of these three (or some other facsimile?).

(Rob - I'm borrowing this pic from your thread)

exactly - it's all the stuff she's done to herself (her own words and her own actions) that have made her a complete joke
And yet,incredibly,libs still support Joe Biden who has said more stupid things THIS YEAR then Palin has said in her life and has been wrong on every issue everytime.Amazing!
