Have to overcome the Libertarian, Koch, Tea meme. Government, public schools, taxes = Evil:

Here are just a few excerpts of the Libertarian Party platform that David Koch ran on in 1980:

“We urge the repeal of federal campaign finance laws, and the immediate abolition of the despotic Federal Election Commission.”

“We favor the abolition of Medicare and Medicaid programs.”

“We oppose any compulsory insurance or tax-supported plan to provide health services, including those which finance abortion services.”

“We also favor the deregulation of the medical insurance industry.”

“We favor the repeal of the fraudulent, virtually bankrupt, and increasingly oppressive Social Security system. Pending that repeal, participation in Social Security should be made voluntary.”

“We propose the abolition of the governmental Postal Service. The present system, in addition to being inefficient, encourages governmental surveillance of private correspondence. Pending abolition, we call for an end to the monopoly system and for allowing free competition in all aspects of postal service.”

“We oppose all personal and corporate income taxation, including capital gains taxes.”

“We support the eventual repeal of all taxation.”

“As an interim measure, all criminal and civil sanctions against tax evasion should be terminated immediately.”

“We support repeal of all law which impede the ability of any person to find employment, such as minimum wage laws.”

“We advocate the complete separation of education and State. Government schools lead to the indoctrination of children and interfere with the free choice of individuals. Government ownership, operation, regulation, and subsidy of schools and colleges should be ended.”

“We condemn compulsory education laws … and we call for the immediate repeal of such laws.”

“We support the repeal of all taxes on the income or property of private schools, whether profit or non-profit.”

“We support the abolition of the Environmental Protection Agency.”

“We support abolition of the Department of Energy.”

“We call for the dissolution of all government agencies concerned with transportation, including the Department of Transportation.”

“We demand the return of America's railroad system to private ownership. We call for the privatization of the public roads and national highway system.”

“We specifically oppose laws requiring an individual to buy or use so-called "self-protection" equipment such as safety belts, air bags, or crash helmets.”

“We advocate the abolition of the Federal Aviation Administration.”

“We advocate the abolition of the Food and Drug Administration.”

“We support an end to all subsidies for child-bearing built into our present laws, including all welfare plans and the provision of tax-supported services for children.”

“We oppose all government welfare, relief projects, and ‘aid to the poor’ programs. All these government programs are privacy-invading, paternalistic, demeaning, and inefficient. The proper source of help for such persons is the voluntary efforts of private groups and individuals.”

“We call for the privatization of the inland waterways, and of the distribution system that brings water to industry, agriculture and households.”

“We call for the repeal of the Occupational Safety and Health Act.”

“We call for the abolition of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.”

“We support the repeal of all state usury laws.”

The GOP is against taxes that support schools, public schools and anything that supports children. This is why Sanders and Reid called them out, and they were immediately attacked in the media and on the ground in NV.

Look at the list and the links if you have time. It's why Obama, Reid and Sanders have called them out, along with others. The GOP is just following the agenda set out there.

And they have many converts and work all sides of the political field to get it done. They are close and willing to bankrupt the country and kill millions to create their version of liberty and freedom.

Yes, Marco, the nice men are here to take you to your new home. C'mon now:

Don't worry, you'll be safe there.

These imaginative slurs waste time. Just use four-letter expletives:

See? Just a word that conveys almost every possible meaning.

Obama takes the President of Russia for a burger. Medvedev wants hot peppers! n/t

Your picture is from this video, don't you think?

May 12, 2014

Similiar characteristics:

IRAQ


UKRAINE


USA

The last two are members of the Libertarian Oathkeepers group, who are recuriting soldiers and police officers across the country. They are on disability, training others, stocking ammo and weapons for the pending fight with the 'foreign-born Obama.' They have the time and the money and are organizing to carry out their plan for breaking up the USA into states.

And the same can be found at numrerous other places.

Barack Obama goes to Five Guys : One Burger, One color

Published on Dec 3, 2012

This video shows President Obama going for a Burger at Five Guys followed by Two extracts of his speechs, one is taken from the 2008 campaign, the other one from his victory's speech on november 6th 2012. The video also shows several photos of President Obama's throughout his life. You will notice our footage includes two different times of President Obama going for a burger.

But first and foremost, this footage is intended at showing how easily President Obama blends with multi type of people regardless of what they are, fact later emphasized by the two speech's extract. I then question at this point what would happened if we were to consider people on earth as "One World, One Color".

Music is extract from song : Pascal Baxter - Color (Original Mix)
Videos used for the footage are quoted in the credits. There are no commercial purposes intended, people are encouraged to share the question above.

For those looking for the music:

One Place Where Obama Goes Elbow to Elbow (NYT 2007)

By JODI KANTOR - June 1, 2007



Senator Barack Obama, seated at center, with his junior varsity basketball team in the 1977 yearbook of the Punahou School in Honolulu.

Last Christmas, Senator Barack Obama flew to Hawaii to contemplate a presidential bid in the peace of his childhood home. But there, on a humid playground near Waikiki Beach, he found himself being roughed up by some of his best friends. It was the third and final game of the group’s annual three-on-three basketball showdown, and with the score nearly tied, things were getting dirty.

“Every time he tried to score, I fouled him,” Martin Nesbitt recalled. “I grabbed him, I’d hit his arm, I’d hold him.” Michael Ramos, another participant, explained, “No blood, no foul.”

Mr. Obama, like everyone else on the court, was laughing. And with a head fake, a bit of contact and a jumper that seemed out of his range, Mr. Obama sank the shot that won the game.

From John F. Kennedy’s sailing to Bill Clinton’s golf mulligans to John Kerry’s windsurfing, sports has been used, correctly or incorrectly, as a personality decoder for presidents and presidential aspirants. So, armchair psychologists and fans of athletic metaphors, take note: Barack Obama is a wily player of pickup basketball, the version of the game with unspoken rules, no referee and lots of elbows. He has been playing since adolescence, on cracked-asphalt playgrounds and at exclusive health clubs, developing a quick offensive style, a left-handed jump shot and relationships that have extended into the political arena...

It might include the time he and several Harvard Law School classmates played inmates at a Massachusetts prison; the students were terrified to win or lose, because the convicts lining the court had bet on both outcomes. (“I got two packs on you!” they called out...)
