Bush scheduled the guest house so Obama couldn't use it and had to use a commercial setting which wasn't secure and cost us loads of money.

roughly equivalent to the $150M cost of the coronation?

Was Obama booing? Answer that question if you wish to be honest about this latest bit of propaganda by Stan.

Did anyone say the magic negro was booing? and since when is a video of crass behavior propaganda?

Synaptrik wrote:

Obama has been respectful of Bush and isn't prosecuting his administration either.

And Bush was far more respectful of Obama than Clinton was of Bush in the same cicumstances, so the magic negro is simply following Bush's lead. And, by the way, I would personally welcome the attempt at prosecution - it would be a hoot to watch you fools dance and chant, then find out you knew squat about what is / isn't legal.

Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

I have a hard time thinking of Bush as a free speech advocate. I don't say that he did anything to reduce free speech, but what did he do to specifically promote it?

Lots of those round where I live, Bubba. All of 'em using phrases like "Magic Negro." Here's a thought. When blacks fight and die for this country, their blood turns out to be just as red as a white guy's.

Absolutely. point? For years now I've heard Bush called everything from buffoon to crook to liar, you pick the name - and I'm not able to use the term Magic Nergo?

Hmmm. The only person I have ever heard called a Stush is Paris Hilton - somehow, you don't seem to fit the mold. . .

Sure you are able to, but in doing so, you limit both the amount of information you will be able to convey and the number of readers who will stick around to receive any wisdom you you might offer up. In other words, you're better'n that.

I didn't exclude them. I am claiming out right that what happened to Bush was a more dispicable act than was the murder of Lincoln.

Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

The measure of dispicability is on the part of those committing the act. Booth did what he did as a self assigned agent of a foreign power, his act was that of an avowed enemy of the US. His actions must be judged within that context. The people who ridiculed Bush did so at the most sacred and most solemn event in our national political process - the peaceful exchange of power from one president to another - as representatives of the incoming executive and the party to which he belonged. They made a mockery of that exercise, they impugned and mocked the single most significant act possible in any democratic society in the most powerful democracy on the planet. Yes, that is more dispicable.

No, murder is always worse than booing, you fucking useless insane polemic dipshit. It's no small wonder you think you need religion to provide you with a system of ethics if your moral compass is as fundamentally broken as this. also please learn to spell despicable or get a browser with spellcheck, jesus christ - your text reads like daffy duck: "ITSH DISHPICABLE, THISH MEANSH WAR!"

What about the tens of thousands of good honest hardworking Americans that lynched so many people? Not nearly as bad as booing, I admit, but where does that sit on your despicability continuum? What about Jesse Washington? I mean, he was only castrated, mutilated and burned to death in front of a cheering crowd of 15 000, at least he wasn't booed.
