Assassination attempt on Obama

[Antilogic]

Since when was OWS pro-Obama?

My thoughts exactly. When will people stop assuming everyone who disagrees with them are on the same side? It's getting old.

When it comes to insane people like him, there isn't really a whole lot you can do. I mean, how can you reason with someone who thinks he is Jesus and Obama is the Devil?

Have we ruled out that this guy really isn't Jesus?

I'm glad you now see the whole Birther thing was silly partisan driven nonsense. Because you had this insight, I take back my remarks.

For myself, it wasn't partisan driven. Either way, Obama settled the issue with the certificate's release, and I have since left the birthers.

Actually, you wanted a snappy come-back and picked that one. In no way you could have used logic to come to that conclusion.

Then I would greatly appreciate for you to correct my conclusion.

You can count on me

Then shall we end it here? If we can't come to mutual terms, how about we agree to disagree and go back to the assassination attempt itself?

It was people who didn't want to see Obama as president. It was silly, and uncalled for. It was ... as someone, who I, at the start of this post, thought was wise enough to admit his mistakes and be a better man because of it, once said: "people making stupid accusations without anything to back them up". And yes, I would have dropped it, I thought you had taken my hint on introspection. But you just had to be the thing again you, rightfully I might add, railed against when I thought from that promising start you'd seen the folly of that whole birth certificate business. It's so hard to agree with you that blaming this on a tea-partier is jumping to unsupported conclusions.

Despite my disagreement with this part, I shall not reply due to the....

So here's the deal, you can count on me, if I can count on you

Deal. The birther discussion dies now.

That said: The birther issue was due to a lack of Obama putting the issue to rest, and people wanting Obama to confirm his citizenship. Granted, the birthers were wrong, but that was on a different level than immediately classifying a shooter as a birther.

That could not possibly be more opposite to the truth. The matter of Obama's birth was 100% settled years before Obama even ran for president. There was never anything other than deliberate rejection of the truth behind the birther movement.

Everyone knows that Obama is Hitler who went to Kenya diguised himself as a black muslim only to be elected president to destroy America from within.

Well, I have... but it seems that Obama has not ruled out that he isn't, in fact, Jesus...

Honolulu is not Bethlehem.

Prove it. You can't.

Nor have you.

Praise our lord! Praise to Kochman!

 

[Crezth]

I can prove that Obama is Jesus:

1. If I can conceive that Obama is Jesus, then Obama is Jesus.
2. I can conceive that Obama is Jesus.
3. Obama is Jesus.

 

[kochman]

Honolulu is not Bethlehem.

To clarify, I meant the 2nd coming!

 

[JollyRoger]

To clarify, I meant the 2nd coming!

I thought that happened a few days after his death.

 

[kochman]

I thought that happened a few days after his death.

Obama isn't dead.

The 2nd coming is not the resurrection... two different things altogether.

Don't you just love double standards?

Double standards? How do you know that? Have I ever expressed approval over people calling for Bush to be shot? Or was that just a bit of unintelligent guessing on your part?

Let's gloss over the American Right's sheer hatred and racism in regards to Obama.

If by gloss over you mean ignore the manufactured smear by the lleft, then yes.

 

[DroopyTofu]

I fail to see how this is an assassination attempt. If Obama wasn't even in DC, then I don't see how there could be any intent for him to be harmed. Therefore, it isn't really assassination, is it?

 

[useless]

If by gloss over you mean ignore the manufactured smear by the lleft, then yes.

Pray tell, what is this manufactured smear that speak off?

Or do you not acknowledge that there was genuine racism directed towards Obama, from the right?

 

[Patroklos]

The right? No. A few members of it, probably. See what you missed there?

Then again, if we are talking about politics and racism we only need to look at the CBC to trump anything eminating from the right at the moment. Or you know any lefty lawmaker using false accusations of racism agains the Tea Party because they are predominantly white and apparently its okay to be racist if whites are your target.
