    Oh, wait. Didn't you poo-poo a Lincoln quote regarding the economy just today? Why, that would make your statements contradictory. Or colloquially speaking, a load of horse manure.

    No, I didn't. I merely pointed out that some of what is attributed to Lincoln was not written by him. Both parties abuse his name. Reagan misquoted him. Gore has also.

    The Democratic Party of 150 years ago and the Democratic Party of today have very little in common.

    The Democrat Party of 50 years ago would be unrecognizable to many young Dems. Read JFK's inaugural address to your average brainwashed college kid of today and they start shrieking "Neo-con!"

    Health care should not be a profit-making endeavor. Period.

    Lefties amaze me sometimes. You want 150 TV channels, competition between airlines, new i-pods every 9 months, a range of affordable import cars, a variety of cheap cell phones and user plans, imported foodstuffs, baristas who can fix your coffee 20 differnt ways etc. but you still demand that the gubmint, which can't even run the postal system, be entrusted with your health care.

    Hamas thugs bused in from "Palestine" to help the mullahs intimidate and terrorize Iranian citizens.

    White Americans on mass supported the racist policies at the time, and is therefore complicit in the carnage that it exacted on minorities, which extends also to American Indians.

    Native Americans kept slaves. Africans sold their fellow Africans into slavery and the Mohammedan slave trade ranged from Russia to Ireland (entire coastal villages taken captive and sold in the Maghreb) to Africa. [http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/021345.php]

    Saudi Arabia only ended slavery in 1962.

    You would think some people here never learned how the story ended - the bloodiest war America ever fought in resulted in the deaths of over 500 000 Americans and nearly destroyed the young Republic but it ended slavery. If "Black America" were a separate country (and I don't mean segregated, like what the racist Farakkhan and Rev Wright want) it would boast an economy among the top fifth in the world. For a look at the purchasing power American blacks have see [http://www.targetmarketnews.com/buyingpowerstats.htm]

    "White Americans" at the time the time you speak of were almost exclusively from Europe - where do you think they got their ideas about race and the "dark continent"?

    I make the claim that reparations are in order.

    You obviously feel pretty strongly about the issue. Done anything about it other than carp at Americans who are generations removed from the small portion of plantation owners in the South who practiced slavery?

    "The American health care system is the joke of the so-called first world nations. It's a system for the rich, only."

    From what country comes the vast majority of medical advances? Hint - It's in North America, but it ain't Canada...

    "System for the rich"? That is all relative to where you're from.

    My American buddy's father needs the same, but can't get it, even after working his butt off for 50 years of his life.

    Sorry,having worked in US hospitals and with many relatives still doing so I'm skeptical of your little story.

    Socialism works. There are plenty of socialist countries today, and many are our allies.

    It works in special circumstances, for short peiods. If it's the so-called Swedish model you refer to it is generally now regarded as failure.

    Fight the Smears! How dare they attack our president, the World President! Loyal Obama youth need to go after PETA! Use your community organizing skills - intimidate them, accuse them of racism, get "in their faces," remember Alinsky's rules and advice:threaten, ridicule, use aggression, constant pressure, use the goodness of people against them.

    It's so bad even the Russians are saying Obama is too far to the Left:

    "Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Monday criticized U.S. President Barack Obama's plan to raise taxes on U.S. companies' foreign operations, saying it would amount to double taxation that will hurt the global economy.

    "This is a serious decision for the world economy," Putin said at a meeting of the Presidium, the government said on its web site. "If taxes are imposed on all companies working abroad, then it will mean the total destruction of the system for avoiding double taxation."

    Obama really likes these precision strikes. I reckon his Blackberry ain't the same ones you and I can get.

    I've watch businesses close their doors because nobody can afford to buy anything except from Walmart.

    Ever wonder why Walmart isn't asking for bailouts?

    How about the millions upon millions of Indians that were slaughtered?

    By the Spanish in S and C America or the European settlers in N America?

    Lincoln's words are just as true today as they were when he said them. There are no "competing quotes."

    Many of them aren't even his words.

    Byrd didn't qualify because he openly repented of his racist past.

    I for one am glad that Sen. Robert Byrd (Democrat, W Virginia) was part of this. He and his party had much to answer for and this was a good start.

    Very fitting that a Democrat-controlled Senate should apologize for what their party did to American blacks in the South after the Civil War.

    Good Work.

    Sushisake3 - if you were more observant you'd notice I cite British, Canadian, Australian, Indian,Iranian, Iraqi newspapers,bloggers and media sources in my posts - from Japan, where I have lived for longer than you have been an adult.

    I have no fear of foreigners, just a certain wariness of the ones like you who want America to become like whatever country it is you left for Japan.

    90 percent of your posts focus on the same topic.

    It is you who lives in fear.

    Obama wants to bring fascism to my country. "Progressives" have wanted to do this since the 1920's.

    You,son, need to study more history.

    Simple as that.

    What is Obama hiding? What happened to all the blather about transparency?

    "Despite President Barack Obama's pledge to introduce a new era of transparency to Washington, and despite two rulings by a federal judge that the records are public, the Secret Service has denied msnbc.com's request for the names of all White House visitors from Jan. 20 to the present. It also denied a narrower request by the nonpartisan watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which sought logs of visits by executives of coal companies. …"
