all of its true.
I am happy people like RON paul – Alan Grayson – and barack obama have come together to stop the federal reserve …. we will finally get a audit of the federal reserve HR1207– we need to support President obama on this
Surprisingly good. lol
And your evidence of this falsification is…what?
kubrickzghost, where have you been for the last 8 years???? Now who ran this country into the ground…I don’t think President Obama was in office when the country went down the toilet. Obama has to clean up before he can actually get anything done…..go out to some tea party
These people are nuts. One of my favorite documentaries of all time is War Room. Not becuase Im a democrat or I am a fan of Clinton. Or even that im a fan of politics in general. It just these psychophants that these politicians get are so jaw droppingly insane. They look ready to sacrifice virgins.
I’m really psyched for Obama and his presidency, but here’s the thing: You can do a hell of a lot as a president, but there are many powerful ‘interested parties’ that keep a president bound to certain conventions. The strongest force that would allow Obama to fulfill his campaign pledges is vocal public support– if anything really substantive is going to happen, its going to be because we have a window and we’re loud about taking advantage of it, loud and especially articulate!
This is a wonderful demonstration of a serial liar. This is an even better demonstration of those who see the emperor’s new clothes. Frighteningly evil. Man… what idiots..
I really want to see this, but I gotta say that I must be one of the few Obama supports who found the whole “Yes We Can,” and “Fired Up!” thing to be very annoying.
For who? The brain dead majority of this country who voted for him based on stupid campaign slogans, or the few of us who knew that we were getting a moderate liberal reformer when we voted for him and didn’t expect miracles.
Its nice when three people who couldn’t disagree more on the majority of economic and tax policy can come together against the one thing everyone thinks is screwed up.
That was such an amazing campaign – God bless our President!!
it’s pretty sad that HBO is making documentaries about the origin of a catch phrase.
Thanks for posting the story behind the slogan that inspired millions of Americans. Come on Obama, dont let the Conservatives in the Senate obstruct what the American people elected you to do!
Obama is exactly what America needed —- An airheaded CHEERLEADER!
Now all he needs is a mini skirt and some pom poms and he will get America back on track. Democrats are so so very shallow.
The “fored up ready to go” I like the most was delivered right before the election in Virgina. He said “IN 21 hours if your are willing to stand with me and fight by my side… I know your voice will matter… so I just have one question to ask you Virginia, are you fired up?! Ready to go?!” He had a different tone in his voice. I have it on my favorites. I wouldn’t trade one day of Obama and what he’s done for a 72 year old McCain and crazy Palin.
Obama came at the right time, but we also have to consider the ones who don’t want to much success for the people. Its the people who will change the world and Obama only motivates us to do so. He can’t do it alone and we need more people who can be more caring for others and forgive and not judge one another for mistiakes that everyone learns from. For a peaceful world its time to start in each one of us.
Peace!
Fired up……ready to destroy America!! Fired up…..ready to turn us into a third world nation!! What bullshit. Poor sheeople! So many hated Bush they put this chuckle headed commie into office.
ANother moron who doesn’t know what communism is. Take a PoliSci class. If you think this is communism, maybe you should go see what China is like.
Bush signed off on a war that has since jolted China to power. We brrd $ China for the W and China has mlti lucr. bus. dealings with Iraq and other m.e. coutries as a result. Learn the facts Obama bashers before you open up your fat mouths. Bush is the worst U.S. Pres of all-time. I didn’t v for Bush, we eltd him 2x. And for that I am very ashamed…… My fellow dems we aren’t clean and pure either. Its was the dems that f*cked up the housing market by ignoring the crystal clear warnings.
NLP 101…
…there is a lot we can learn from this man.
lol @ that girl at 3:40!
i believe he will change the world ans make it better
Question…how many years of the iraq war would the Stim and proposed health care bill fund? I don’t want to give positions or answers, Just want to see if you have looked at the numbers?
Thanks
I wish I could relive that entire time. such an exciting time in American History!!!
