Actually, Obama defended himself from Clinton’s false attack that he “really liked the ideas of the Republicans” .

And both Clintons have praised Reagan.

And it was Senator Clinton that got Obama to qualify and better explain his statement that “the GOP was the party of ideas for a pretty long time” by prompting to add the adjective “bad”.

It was also Senator Clinton and in that same debate got Obama to denounce Louis Farrakan.

Geez where IS Obama without Hillary Clinton either holding his hand or making him fight?

Obama does not even seem to understand that HIS state, Illinois, BORDERS Kentucky!!

“You could even have given us a thread asking just what Obama meant when he called the Republican party the party of ideas.”

BlueJay could ask Daniel Patrick Moynihan, if he hadn’t passed away.

Democratic Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan of New York wrote tellingly last summer:
“Of a sudden, the G.O.P. has become a party of ideas.”
———
The right-wing set up think(sic)-tanks to produce “ideas”.

The right-wing set up media outlets (Murdoch’s Fox, Rev. Moon’s ‘Washington Times’, etc) to spread those “ideas”.

You can also get those right-wing “ideas” today, on shows like PBS’ Jim Lehrer ‘Newshour’.

And contrary to what Senator Clinton implied, “ideas” does not mean “good ideas”. It just means “ideas”.

LMFAO !!!!!

I guess it sounds good, though.

Was there a point or was it pure venting and nothing more?

All I could see was the latter.

Always the eeeeevil rich with you. Why don’t you try to pass a death sentence law for people who are successful Capn. Seems to be the only thing that would make you happy.

But then where would all the money for your handout programs come from. By gosh people may actually have to work HARD! But don’t become successful. We all know what that brings.

And it’s also entirely possible that Wright’s message has changed over the years.

I’m a lot more p—ed off now than I was 20 years ago too.

Mainly because I’ve seen how the idealism of the American freedom has been co-opted to serve the profits of the rich and powerful.

Auswitz instead of Buchenwald.

57 states instead of 47.

Fallen heroes, some of whom are here today [meaning the heroes who've served, obviously not dead people].

Three slips of the tongue signifying nothing except that language is complex and given enough time, everyone makes errors.

The man most people consider the greatest writer in English, William Shakespeare, made plenty of errors, as any close reading will show.

Point One, Obama wasn’t at the service where Rev. Wright was videoed making the “God Damn America” statement.

Point Two, it is highly likely (!) that Rev. Wright did not deliver the same sermon for twenty years.

Point Three, Rev. Wright is a Marine veteran, hardly an unpatriotic status. His words, while extreme and ill advised, were in the context of American racism.

20 years ago?
15 years ago?
10 years ago?
5 years ago?
1 year ago?
1 month ago?

Is THAT Obama’s sense of Patriotism?

Kennedy was applauding a public Dam project in Arkanasas.

Big Dam Deal.

Talk about grasping for straws!

“So those are some of the reasons why I am here today. But the most significant reason is, of course, because of your distinguished Congressman who is chairman of the most influential committee, the Ways and Means Committee of the House, which just 10 days ago passed through by an overwhelming vote a tax reform and reduction bill which I think can do much for this State and other States in maintaining its steadily expanding economy.”
