turtlespeed 226 #26 April 6, 2016 jakee******I'd challenge anyone to attempt to endure some of Cruz's father's preaching and believe Cruz could be sane. This is so easy, that it is embarrassing. I'd challenge anyone to attempt to endure some of Obama's father's preaching or Obama's preacher's preaching and believe Obama to be sane. Yes, it's embarrassing how badly you botched that. Obama wasn't raised by his father, therefore the sanity or otherwise of his teachings (which are insane how, by the way? I really don't know what they are.) are irrelevant to how Obama turned out. You seemed to have missed the other half of the challenge - The fact is that even Obama has said that his preacher, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, was a VERY large influence on him. He was the official at HS wedding. Obama said so in his book and on many other occasions. Here is an ABC news report - How much crazy do you need? I think both examples have LOTS of merit.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I equate communist leanings with romantic attraction to barnyard animals. If you have the demonstrated capacity for either, it is immaterial whether or not you claim to have gotten over it. I think Frank Davis should be studied more intensely, if he is Obama's Mother AND Mentor!That would make Obama a miracle child and very most likely, the Messiah.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meh, communism and capitalism are no different. They are both effective ways to ensure power and wealth is contained within a small group. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,589 #33 April 7, 2016 It's just as ludicrous to call N Korea communist as it is to call Nazi Germany a law-and-order regime. Ignoring the deification of a bat-shit crazy megalomaniac (and in Kim's case, one who was trained, not just talented ) as a factor in N Korea's disfunction leaves a lot out Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.
