10. Military indoctrination by corporations is sad

"I did 12yrs military. I know violence"...But he was not fighting to defend USA or our democracy just a corporate war machine profiteering from his stupidity and misguided patriotism. America was not and is not at war with another country...but her corporations need armies to steal the resources from others.
Stupid Americans can always be identified by their heightened sense of pride and exceptionalism.
The most profitable period in American history for businesses and corporations by far is happening under this so called "Socialist" president. If only we could put these people on TV now and ask them if they thought they were wrong huh...ha. Fat chance.
Brave Obama supporters
Palin said She'd been called a red neck huh...I wonder if that was at the beauty pageant...since I'm sure she has no idea what the term means or where it came from. To her it means...woman who is never wrong and hates you if you disagree...plus I don't need no stinking knowledge.

I am amazed that even before he was elected that she predicted that President Obama would be able to have Osama Bin Laden killed.

PEACEFUL CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE ON JANUARY 21, 2013.

They will be acting up at the Lincoln Memorial to compete with the inauguration. They'll be as hateful and ignorant as the Palinistas were, who are now getting their marching orders from Glenn Beck and World Nut Daily, now starring Rick Santorum.

Occupy White House: Help Stop Obama From Another 4 Un-Constitutional Years

I suspect corporate media will favor the crowd at the Lincoln Memorial just as they did Glenn Beck:

Back to Reality.

Since the traditional date falls on Sunday, it will be on the following Monday which is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. And 2013 will be the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclaimation. These days and anniversaries are joyful symbols of our progress for many of us.

The White House's official schedule is as follows:


Things will kick off on Saturday, Jan. 19, with a tradition started by the Obamas at the president's first inauguration in 2009: a National Day of Service designed to honor Americans' shared values and celebrate the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

Next, in keeping with tradition for inauguration days that fall on a Sunday, the president will participate in a small, private swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20.

The big event -- the public swearing-in, followed by a parade and the official inaugural balls -- will take place on Monday, Jan. 21.

"This year's inaugural will reflect our belief that working together, we can keep moving our country forward and fulfill the promise of the American dream for all families," President Obama said in a statement released today.

going to a McCain rally is only trying to stir those people up and get the reaction that they got.

With that said it makes me feel warm inside knowing how much they hate Obama and how pissed they are that he won reelection.
