So exactly what part of that speech did you disagree with? I didn't see anything wrong with it

 

[Accountable]

Pretty words that in no way coincide with his actions. He's disingenuous at best.
Message: Anyone that disagrees with me fits in the same category as kindergartners and people who think medicare is not a government program.

 

[Tim]

What do you have to back that up? Please show me where he is contradicting himself....

 

[Accountable]

Why? Would yet another list of talking unity and acting partisan, talking transparency then closing doors, or talking fiscal responsibility while spending us into oblivion change your mind?

What a great speech. He revised with you guys some history and taught you guys some history which you dont find in your history books. He talked abt name calling. Thats what I always see in the political section here. As Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.". I have that quote on one of my threads. Most of what he talked abt is a commonplace even in this forum. To put it in a nutshell he is telling you guys to emulate Singapore style democracy. :24:

He was talking to graduating students. He probably dont want the students to be brainwashed by the media and the Republicans.

nah, he'd prefer them to be brainwashed by the liberal media and the Democrats

 

[Alien Allen]

nah, he'd prefer them to be brainwashed by the liberal media and the Democrats

and the college elites

Was this as the University of Michigan today?

I could not stomach to watch the video or read the text

If so U of M and the county it is located I refer to as Moscow west. It is so far left it might was well be in the pacific ocean

 

[kelvin070]

nah, he'd prefer them to be brainwashed by the liberal media and the Democrats

He was a little cunning though cuz he quoted 3 Republican presidents and one Democrat president to remove that bias.

It's really hard to take any thread about Obama by Accountable seriously when he believes that Obama caused the oil slick off the coast of the USA.:24::24::24::24::surrender

Wow. A blind attack off the subject?? So unlike you. For the record, I never said I think he did it, only that I wouldn't put it past him. There's no proof and likely wouldn't be even if true.

If you have a comment about the speech I'd love to hear it.

Yes, Accountable, Obama is Dr Evil lurking about in his lair wating for the right time to unleash his latest darstadly plan of evil onto the world.

 

[Alien Allen]

Not saying it applies to people here but

some of the same people that find it offensive and insane to say Obama might have deliberately caused the oil spill would have easily believed Bush sent the planes into the twin towers

Not the world. I don't think he cares about the world. I think he's focused on eradicating federalism, individualism and meritocracy from the USA.
