Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic Nation-state. America will be that country. Better than it was before. Better, stronger, faster.

B. Hussein Obama knows how to make Marxism sound ohso wonderful.

Hmmmm....didn't Hitler as well?

B. Hussein Obama is a Marxist/Fascist who only wants to prolong economic agony so he can expand the reach of government totally. If he isn"t stoppped, as the brilliant Alan Keyes said the other day, America will cease to exist.

By the way, he still hasn't proven he is a natural boorn citizen!

equating marxism with fascism shows a fundamental ignorance of political theory.

Funny how WA, OR and CA are hit so hard when we don't have automakers and other hard hit industries. What we do have in common: we've all lost a large number of immigrant laborers over the past couple years as the government has cracked down. Perhaps the recession is in part bubbling up from the loss of that income and the income it generated.

That marshmallow has got to go.

But the marshmallow is the dead (white) man floating in a shallow, debris riddled, lagoon south of the boarder! Bang-bang!

@13 - I hear we have volcanoes too, even if Mr Jilal Rogers doesn't think we do.

At first glance, I thought that was a big chunk of chevre in the soup, which would have been delicious.

Marshmallow, however, is not delicious.
