Obamas arrive for Lincoln Memorial concert

I celebrate every morning that I wake up.  I know that it's going to be a great day,  because each day is what you make it. It sure not because we have a new @sshole in Washington.  There are already to many there and the place smells like  S  H  I  T. None of them are going to make my life any better. It's up to me. I don't need their hand outs.

well put  tex

say hello to bush 2, starring mr b nochange. thanks for the nochange, looks like elitist and neopotism is here to stay.

secretagent - You guys are scaring me.  You sound like religous converts.  He's really not "The One".  He's only another one. 

SecretagentLee, I KNOW just how you feel. I sit here in Mississippi, knowing the history of my state, and I am crying because so many beautiful and wonderful things are going on in Washington. I wish I could be there, but unfortunately because of the financial situation I have now (yeah, Bush), I can't attend a wonderful new beginning. And Anne, I can't help it.  I am a 60 years old, white woman who feels like I did when Kennedy got elected, hopeful. I just hope it doesn't end badly or I might become a 60 year old militant!  But I am excited and feel like a kid again all because of this young man, and his energetic family. I know he has a tough time ahead of him, but if all of us pray, maybe he can pull it off.

What a great day in America, I'm glad to see that this celebration bothers the haters so much. Now you understand what 8 years of Bush felt like. 

Your all fools to think "o" is your answer to all your problems....my goodness he is just a man........And you are also all fools to think that Bush was the cause of all your problems...he too is just a man....but Washington as a whole.. majority being Democrates have brought this wrath on you and you are all so blinded by hollywood and the media that you can not see that this is going to be the down fall of our Country. We have also brought this wrath upong ourselves by our greed and our pride...........

The only thing that can save our Country is prayer..."If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and Heal their land.".........
Instead of partying I suggest we all get on our knees...........

excuse me, anne-619140, I never said he was "the one." I believe those are your words. You guys are really good at putting words like that in our mouths. Read what I say and don't take it out of context and add your words to it.  I was just making a comment about the celebrations that are beginning. I am happy to have a new president coming into office. After the last four years, this is like a new morning. I understand that you all are mad because your guy lost, but you don't have to rain on our parade. Go pout in the corner and leave us alone.

Because of stupid comments like that, Secretagent, is why our country is becoming divided.  We aren't pouting because our guy lost. We are only keeping our eyes open and know that this man isn't going to bring miracles for our country.  And who cares what stars go to support this...are they paying my bills?  Are they supporting my family?

I am going to disagree, Beth. The "Stupid" coments are those posted saying that we think Obama is "The one" or the "second coming of Christ." I was just commenting on the fact that we should be allowed to celebrate without people twisting and distorting our words.I know Obama won't be able to bring miracles. I am a pragmatic person. It will take time to undo what has been done in the last eight years.  I doubt anyone is supporting your family but you.

It isn't Obama's job to support your family anyway, so what's the big problem?

tompca, he sang a compilation of songs, all verses from all songs wasn't possible.  No hidden message there.  Careful, your paranoia is showing.

hey tompica if you play the song backwards there is a hidden message for you. And only you ....LOL

If millions of babies get aborted at least it was because the right of American women was upheld and not surpressed by you.

SO THE  man has no say in it

The man has much say before conception but often refuses responsibility for contraception. Afterwards yes indeed they have no say as it should be.

you must be talking from experience ?

Of course the father should have an opinion but that is where it stops...........what a woman does with her own body is her choice........and I bet if men could become pregnant there would never be a threat to abortion rights.

john, youre not right the man does have to pay after, even if its through taxes and even if the child is not ours, its called welfare and entitlements. wake up and smell the coffee, maybe even drink some, the cool aid really has a bite to it eh.. lol..

For a guy, that is a bogus statement to make about it being the guy's responsibility "if he refuses contraception".  How naive can you be?

It is not a myth that condoms break and leak, while women forget to take their pill or outright lie about being on the pill.  If a woman can decide to kill her baby despite protests from the father, why then can't men demand that the baby be aborted if they don't want it?  Conversely, why can't fathers require women to have their baby if they want the child, even if the mother doesn't? 

That, my friend, is a DOUBLE STANDARD!

BTW:  It might be wise for abortion supporters to remember this fact: You were a "fetus" at one time, too.  What if your mother had aborted you along with the tens of millions of other babies?

Then we wouldn't be here worrying about it would we? Or wondering if we are going to be treasured or tortured.

Odd comment, to say the least.

This article is not about abortion.  Please stick to the subject of the article. 

colin its america, gay rights mean absolutely nothing to me, who cares.

Stop crying and complaining.  You got your "pro gay guy" in office anyway.  Besides, gays are NOT entitled to any more rights than anyone else.  Unfortunately, the gay agenda is seeking rights above and beyond basic civil rights!

This posting isn't about abortion or gays, it's about a concert........................

There are many articles on line to complain of those things, go there.

Millions of us feel the same way you do. Obama had $700 million to spend, the media in his pocket (like you see all over the news today) and the sheep that will follow who Hollywood and pop culture tells them to. We had all the odds against us. Well, it took Jimmy Carter to get us Regan.

God Bless America

"And even the SHEEP that hate her"

If God will not bless a nation or president that has a homosexual bring an invocation then God don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Well John I'm sure glad you sit at God's rocking chair and know how he thinks ... I guess you have one up on all of us -Not!

what does the Bible say about passing judgement????

Sorry k777 have no idea what the bible says about passing judgement. It is a nice collection of old folk tales. I have read it in the past but prefer many other works of fiction much more.  

johnny boy is just upset he doesn't have a farther figure in his sorry life 

I agree, but the Libs don't get it, so save your breath.  Liberals love the part of the Bible that talks about "loving thy neighbor", but conveniently forget about the laws and Ten Commandments.  This country is doomed regardless of the party in power or sexual orientation of the bishop.  Guys like "john123456789" wouldn't know how to translate a verse of Scripture if it hit him on the head.  "Oh, your judgmental".  Wow, how insightful!  Unfortunately for the human race, the Bible has all sorts of judgments if people don't shape up and continue to diss God and his Word.  The homosexual agenda is an abomination, despite the fact that the mass media keeps shoving that politically correct agenda down the publics collective throat.

If I were you, naysayers, I would watch your tone and tongue while mocking God...you will have hell to pay if His followers are right...

Laugh while you can!

Mike, Did you mean "father" figure? I guess a farther" figure is something far away? It may be nice to make up your own language the problem is that it is sometimes hard to communicate with others.

Liberals love the part of the Bible that talks about "loving thy neighbor", but conveniently forget about the laws and Ten Commandments. 

You are correct. I've never heard anyone in the Bush Administration (or in the right wing media) bearing false witness or taking the Lord's name in vain. President Bush has always been 100% truthful with the American people and has been completely ethical in all the companies he has run. Heck, nobody in the Republican party has ever even committed adultery. Those are just vicious rumors spread by the liberal media.

Excellent point!  Not only did they take their private planes back, they then made a documentary about air pollution, and advocated a hike in taxes to fix all the pollution caused by jet exhaust. 

Democrats are for the people what do you want Bush back?

How old are you, 12 or 13?

That sounds like a bunch of propaganda from the time that the unions were actually strong!  Bush is no better or worse than Slick Willy, Ted Kennedy, or Jimmy Carter.

Democrats are "for the people", and Republicans not?  If that were true, Democrats would control spending and stop illegal immigration.  Yet there are as many corrupt Democrats as Republicans!  Most of the liberal judges who overturn the "will of the people" are Democrats.  Pass the Kool-Aid!

I'm done with Springstein and burning his C.D.'s!  I can add Bono and James Taylor.

What happened to Garth Brooks?  Has the liberal guilt complex crept into his psyche because of his success and fame?  Maybe he can tour with the Dixie Chicks going forward...

I'm done with Springstein and burning his C.D.'s!  I can add Bono and James Taylor.

I'm sure you were a huge fan before yesterday.

blue lips tell you what..

I'm sick of Bono and his policy to have a new pair of designer shades every time he performs.  He spends more on his shades than the average African makes in a year!

Many bloggers here are telling the GOP faithful not to bag on Obama over the cost of his inauguration.  But let's be serious here:  Bush did not recruit a bunch of Hollywood celebrities and conduct a concert in front of the Lincoln Memorial, either.  Barry spent more than 3 TIMES what Bush spent on his "coming out" party.  Yet he had the audacity to throw this party with record deficits, sky high unemployment, and the worst real estate market since the Great Depression.  The connection that Obama is trying to make with Lincoln is enough to make me sick.  The guy hasn't done a damn thing yet, and he is probably getting reading to pose for the picture that will be used on a new U.S. bill!

Obama is NOT Lincoln, FDR, or a savior/messiah!

Huh did you say something LOL

Yes, "change" is a comin' all right!

But don't get your "hope" up too high!

ObamaNation is here...

if someone "Obama" couldn't pick anyone any better than these entertainers - it shows how poorly he picked people for his cabinet

I guess Ted Nuggent was busy.

Unfortunately, the change will not be for the positive given the IOU's that Barry owes the liberals for their support in his election!

Anthony De La Conquistador, the major of L.A., is the same way.  Big on appearances but lacking in substance.  It is truly unreal the amount of money Barry spent on his campaign!

I'm sure he is worried about your opinion.

At Least Obama will attempt to fix our problems, Bush didn't have a clue, Even Bush stated that Obama's presidency is "a celebration of hope!"  Bush leaves with only the second lowest rating while Obama has the highest of any incoming president.  Maybe there will be light at the end of the tunnel.....

daisy-369050     lets hope so

So seyz you!

I'm not buying any more products from any of the celebrities that showed up for this hyped up propaganda.  Obama riding the train like Jesus the donkey into Jerusalem...how priceless!
Can we replace Lincoln on the $5 bill now?

deo -

And you know what "he" is thinking how, exactly?

Stay on track please, Obama more than likely had nothing to do with the concert at Lincoln Memorial and the politically correct musicians I am sure are getting a pretty penny from HBO to do that show.  Did you ever see Bruce Springsteen at any of the anti-war marches or the free concerts afterwards on the mall?  No.  He doesn't play anywhere unless he is getting paid and getting paid well.

I'm afraid that you are right...Barry is a legend in his own mind!  But the mass media is going crazy over the man like it was the second coming of the Beatles or Jim Morrison.  Let's cut to the chase and start constructing the Obama library and temple now while we still have the money.  Worship our savior and messiah!

Joseph, Dont know how well the Obama plates and coins are selling but the red white and blue Bush toilet seats are going fast.

joseph, youre wrong, thats likely another liberal lie. you cant say much in america now, and it gets worse it seems now with the dems in power. have to always be politically correct, is that socialism?

In the end, the elite behind the scenes will always have their agendas advanced.  Only the candidates that are in agreement with the power brokers get a shot at the top.  If you rattle the boat, look at what happens...

Does JFK ring a bell?!

After years of brainwashing Americans into believing only Republicans were rich, it's a delight to see. Not even in office and the millionaires come out of the woodwork.

You guys hit it on the head!

Yet the irony is that the rich liberals like Warren Buffet want to raise taxes for everyone else!

Rich conservatives want to limit government and restrain spending.  But not the rich Democrats!

Sugar coming from the arsses

Dear Dar,

Sanity.

It is a sick, twisted condition often referred to as "liberalism".  But now, more than ever, it is "cool" to be liberal and politically correct.  Maybe Barry and Oprah can start their own New Age eco religion and everyone can worship trees while passing around the Kool-Aid.  Why not?  The pagans did the same thing many millennia ago!
