Gov. Sarah Palin responded to remarks made last night by President Obama related to the Special Olympics on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno": “I was shocked to learn of the comment made by President Obama about Special Olympics,” Governor Palin said. “This was a degrading remark about our world’s most precious and unique people, coming from the most powerful position in the world. “These athletes overcome more challenges, discrimination and adversity than most of us ever will. By the way, these athletes can outperform many of us and we should be proud of them. I hope President Obama’s comments do not reflect how he truly feels about the special needs community.” Well, after the way his allies went after her, he really couldn't count on a full-throated defense of a boneheaded comment. Obama used the whole "it's just a joke" excuse with his "lipstick on a pig" comment, too.

Since all his supporters are 'tards, they wouldn't even know to be offended, right? The other irony of this is that it usually is the so-called "right" which is always calling out the so-called "left" for being too "politically correct."

Ahhh, the first little partisan to take the special bait. BTW, I don't think you're all tards. Some of you are just evil and cain't heppit.
Americans urinate on all-y'alls' heads !
I didn't vote last fall and, in fact, will never vote in another federal election. But I do have to thank Obama for destroying both Hillary and the GOP in the same calendar year. I am an anti-Republican. The GOPers are not merely misguided; they are evil. Their leaders—Darth and El Rushbo—are demonic. And I am sure they feel the same about all of us out here who are not GOPers.

If a single word you type is to have any honesty in it at all, you'd include the Democrats.
Typical white person.
... now with Solium™!
I'll cut Obama some slack, it was the ghetto-heroin in his nigger-veins talking....
_________________________________________________________________________ Just all the more reason that if Obama had ANY honesty at all his campaign symbol would have looked like THIS. Read below for for the explanation: Nazi Euthanasia In October of 1939 amid the turmoil of the outbreak of war Hitler ordered widespread "mercy killing" of the sick and disabled. Code named "Aktion T 4," the Nazi euthanasia program to eliminate "life unworthy of life" at first focused on newborns and very young children. Midwives and doctors were required to register children up to age three who showed symptoms of mental retardation, physical deformity, or other symptoms included on a questionnaire from the Reich Health Ministry. A decision on whether to allow the child to live was then made by three medical experts solely on the basis of the questionnaire, without any examination and without reading any medical records. Each expert placed a + mark in red pencil or - mark in blue pencil under the term "treatment" on a special form. A red plus mark meant a decision to kill the child. A blue minus sign meant a decision against killing. Three plus symbols resulted in a euthanasia warrant being issued and the transfer of the child to a 'Children's Specialty Department' for death by injection or gradual starvation. The decision had to be unanimous. In cases where the decision was not unanimous the child was kept under observation and another attempt would be made to get a unanimous decision. The Nazi euthanasia program quickly expanded to include older disabled children and adults. Hitler's decree of October, 1939, typed on his personal stationary, enlarged "the authority of certain physicians to be designated by name in such manner that persons who, according to human judgment, are incurable can, upon a most careful diagnosis of their condition of sickness, be accorded a mercy death." Questionnaires were then distributed to mental institutions, hospitals and other institutions caring for the chronically ill. Patients had to be reported if they suffered from schizophrenia, epilepsy, senile disorders, therapy resistant paralysis and syphilitic diseases, retardation, encephalitis, Huntington's chorea and other neurological conditions, also those who had been continuously in institutions for at least 5 years, or were criminally insane, or did not posses German citizenship or were not of German or related blood, including Jews, Negroes, and Gypsies. A total of six killing centers were established including the well known psychiatric clinic at Hadamar. The euthanasia program was eventually headed by an SS man named Christian Wirth, a notorious brute with the nickname 'the savage Christian.' At Brandenburg, a former prison was converted into a killing center where the first Nazi experimental gassings took place. The gas chambers were disguised as shower rooms, but were actually hermetically sealed chambers connected by pipes to cylinders of carbon monoxide. Patients were generally drugged before being led naked into the gas chamber. Each killing center included a crematorium where the bodies were taken for disposal. Families were then falsely told the cause of death was medical such as heart failure or pneumonia. But the huge increase in the death rate for the disabled combined with the very obvious plumes of odorous smoke over the killing centers aroused suspicion and fear. At Hadamar, for example, local children even taunted arriving busloads of patients by saying "here comes some more to be gassed." On August 3, 1941, a Catholic Bishop, Clemens von Galen, delivered a sermon in Münster Cathedral attacking the Nazi euthanasia program calling it "plain murder." The sermon sent a shockwave through the Nazi leadership by publicly condemning the program and urged German Catholics to "withdraw ourselves and our faithful from their (Nazi) influence so that we may not be contaminated by their thinking and their ungodly behavior." As a result, on August 23, Hitler suspended Aktion T4, which had accounted for nearly a hundred thousand deaths by this time. The Nazis retaliated against the Bishop by beheading three parish priests who had distributed his sermon, but left the Bishop unharmed to avoid making him into a martyr. However, the Nazi euthanasia program quietly continued, but without the widespread gassings. Drugs and starvation were used instead and doctors were encouraged to decide in favor of death whenever euthanasia was being considered. The use of gas chambers at the euthanasia killing centers ultimately served as training centers for the SS. They used the technical knowledge and experience gained during the euthanasia program to construct huge killing centers at Auschwitz, Treblinka and other concentration camps in an attempt to exterminate the entire Jewish population of Europe. SS personnel from the euthanasia killing centers, notably Wirth, Franz Reichleitner and Franz Stangl later commanded extermination camps.
I pretty much accept the premise that if one can't be productive in at least some sort of way, indeed eradication is benefical to all. Hundreds of thousands of $$$ to maintain a hopeless life is just folly. Yes, 'mother-nature' fucks up now and then...shit happens.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Amen. I've notice that for some time and have been giving him time to atone for his sins...still waiting.

"Aktion T 4," is a major historical benchmark of the Nazi regime, serving to certify the Nazi movement as a more of a 'cult,' than a government/military operation. Ask the Gaza survivors how that operates; the very same 'human failings.' The current news is now centered on the Gaza atrocities - nearly identical to similar Nazi operations.
I've read your well articulated posts for years Sam, and am perplexed by your adherence to party politics ... anti-fed "you betcha" ... both parties are very evil and the current one appears moreso than any previous ones ... MANDATORY VOLUNTEER SERVICE ... WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT ???
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.

Both parties are corrupt. Power corrupts, after all. I don't vote for either of them and I won't. I have learned voting only encourages them. I used to vote Libertarian. I don't even do that anymore. But the GOPers are evil, as evidenced by the mindless violence they committed in the first years of this century, including against their own citizens on 9/11. I blame the neocon rogue elements within their party for that act and the subsequent never-ending wars for Israel they enabled. They failed to police themselves. Millions have died, as a result. It was the "unitary executive" theory of Cheney-Bush that sought, more or less successfully, to establish a new system of government for us, the Presidential dictatorship. I didn't expect Obama to repudiate it and he hasn't. It's funny watching the GOPers quake at their own diabolical creation, though. I still think the chances of Obama starting a nuclear war are somewhat less than if McStrangelove had been elected and certainly less than if the demonic Darth Cheney had somehow rigged things to take over.

Correction: Both parties are Evil. There are no degrees of Evil, as both constantly try to outdo each other. I know it is easy to want to blame some entity (in your case the GOP) for the systemic Evil in our government, but you're wrong. They're both reponsible (as history proves) as is our very foundation and system, which is so corrupt, it can only be fixed by tearing it down and rebuilding it.

He should've said he was bowling as bad as an unwed teenage mother.
Each and every sock-puppet is committed to dance to the jig of the string puller they owe allegiance to ... no differences, none, zip, zero, zilch, nada.

Oh what a DUFFLE-HEAD that Barack Obama is !!! Duffle-Head (As used in a Felix the Cat cartoon) A wicked person of limited intelegence but with pretenses of intelectual grandeur. Their only successful endevors are usually the invention of self punishment machines.

The founders knew this would happen and predicted as much. It is no surprise.
