Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Re: Obama photoshoped in the situation room

Fischer makes a good point about the size of Obama's head in the picture, but he (and others have) said the video wasn't available on youtube anymore. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chSkufr4T3M&feature=player_embedded

With regard to Hilary--it is already a done deed! Clean up your election process--or live like servants of the class formerly known as "victims". That'll be great. If anyone cannot see the same strategic process in place that worked for Obama on two occasions then you are blind fool.

Simon make sense however the scab scratching industry is very lucrative.

Obama photoshopped? From here, it looks more like an eye of faith issue. However, doesn't the boss sit at the head of the table instead the cheap seats?

Remembering the recent eyeball licking hoax, wonder about the fetal soup article.

Overvalued stocks and lower consumer debt except for student loans, time to invest in the grocery market.

re If Obamacare is the Law of the Land, then Why Does the Obama Administration Keep Ignoring It?

Because he can.

Donald Sensing says it well:

"Obama can do this not because the Constitution or law authorize it. Most definitely they actually prohibit it. He is getting away with it because there is no one who can stop him and almost no one who wants to stop him. No one, and I mean absolutely no one, in the Democrat party is in the slightest interested in reining in Obama's expansion of executive diktat because they know what few of the rest of us are awakening to: the Democrats are never going to lose that executive authority again. Let me be clear, with a promise to elucidate another day: there is never going to be another Republican president. Ever.

The media will not examine Obama's imperialist manner because they do not want to. They agree with it. The courts are literally unable to enforce their rulings contra this administration; Obama ignores them at will and without consequence. The Republicans are dominated by the Political Class and lack the numbers, influence, collective will and ideological conviction to rein in the administration even if they had the ability to do so, which they don't."

O'Care the Law, and Obama disregards it like any other law--it ain't special to him.

I'm guessing J-School grads need to see a bunch of old movies set in or about newspapering. Not the one about Woodward and Bernstein, though.

Oh no! Marrying for money! The Horror, The horror...

Chemophobia: Can you spell Alar, boys and girls?

Hillary!cult? Well, it's the lap dog media's favorite thing...until they decide on someone else.

Yes, I agree with feeblemind. Who among the Republican group will take the individual risk to challenge any of these events in court? ah ha! Just as I thought--NONE

We the people (white, non Jewish, heterosexual, non feminist) middle class are out here in the cold on our own. The legal system does not work any longer. No wonder I am starting to see pick up trucks with bumper stickers suggesting "community militia". Those are the white hicks who do understand what's been happening and seem to be the only ones with personal courage. The rest--well, they are just going to lay low and see what the other guys do. In the meantime, the sale of handguns has gone up!

Obama was "photoshopped" into the presidency. He is the real Manchurian candidate. Where did he come from? Who propped him up and paid for his education and greased the skids along the way? Why is it no one in his college and in his classes ever remembered seeing him when he was supposed to be in college? Where did this post turtle come from and who put him there?
