All these quotes have been taken out of context for the purpose of making Obama look like something he is not. If you actually take the time to read his work, you'll see that he's actually a very nuanced person, not all categorical as these quotes suggest.

    Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household....

    Some true, some not. http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/o/obama-books.htm Good eye. Thanks for finding that. It's hard to make a decision being fed bullshit. He does enough I dislike without making it up. Actually, in context, I agree with what he said about the Immigrants. Once they become Americans, they should be stood up for by the President. As we all should be.

As we all should be.So why spread stuff like the pasta in post one then? Here's what the misquote from Audacity of Hope was distorted from: "Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

Well, I thought it was accurate. I'm biased, remember? It fit my picture of him.

    I really don't care if he allegedly stands with the Muslims. We're at war with muslim extremists, and he's not over there leading their army. That's like saying I'll stand with the Christians if the shit hits the fan. So what?

    What is wrong with Americans, You were just attacked by muslims and now you have elected one to be your president. retards.

    What is wrong with Americans, You were just attacked by muslims and now you have elected one to be your president. retards. :rofl: You capitalize the word 'you' after a comma but not the word Muslim which is a proper noun, then you place a period after the word president and use the word 'retard' as it's own sentence instead of simply placing a comma there. Not to mention the part that McRoman-fucking-McNumerals said about the fact that Islamic extremist attacked the US, because frankly their religion isn't all that relevant, it just happens to be. I think it's pretty apparent who the retard is. :thumb:

    Not to mention that "President" should be capitalized too. Hmmm, that one's not so cut and dry... You only capitalize president when it is used as a proper noun, as in: 'Give this note to President Nixon.' 'Please respond to the question, Mr. President.' You don't capitalize it otherwise: 'Hilary Clinton is running for president.' 'The president of the class is Timmy.' 'One day even you can be president.' He said, "your president". While his intent my be implied or even a bit obvious due to the topic, he didn't specify. However, the "Retards." can stand as a complete sentence, IMHO. Five parts needed in a complete sentence. * Capital letter * Subject * Predicate * Complete thought * Terminal Punctuation Perhaps you can point out which of the five points he used, and which he didn't in order to make my point for me, thanks. All the rest I put it down to too many Fosters Lagers on a hot day. I'm pretty sure Fosters is equally hated by 97% of the Australian population dude... Bring it grammar Nazi!!1!!!10NE!

The general word, president, is not capitalized, because it does not refer to any specific position or person. However, it you even refer to someone, such as the President of the United States, then it is capitalized. For example: I will make an appoint with the President. In the context here, the sentence refers to the President of the United States--even a reference ensures capitalization. Since he was clearly referring to President Obama, I think I was correct. Five parts needed in a complete sentence. * Capital letter * Subject * Predicate * Complete thought * Terminal Punctuation Perhaps you can point out which of the five points he used, and which he didn't in order to make my point for me, thanks. Bring it grammar Nazi!!1!!!10NE The following is from Cliffnotes: What is a one-word sentence called? An imperative sentence can be as short as one word, such as: "Go."

You're probably correct, but I refer you to the original post, with it's grammatical simplicity, and you might speculate at which group he belongs to. Or we might ask him.

    The following is from WikiAnswers: Plays along First off, fuck your wikkianswers, in fact fuck everything 'wikki' give me some real reference. Secondly, as I wrote earlier and you even quoted it ... He said, "your president". While his intent my be implied or even a bit obvious due to the topic, he didn't specify. Did you miss that part? He could have been referring to the president of anti terrorist actions, president of Muslim haters, president of stupid 'mericans... Since he was clearly referring to President Obama, I think I was correct. Umm, clearly? Since he probably was, you most likely are but because he didn't specify I didn't correct it, so blow me old fart. Oh and learn to quote, if you search your post you will find where you cut this out, yet it still remains readable in your abortion of a post... Bring it grammar Nazi!!1!!!10NE The following is from Cliffnotes: What is a one-word sentence called? An imperative sentence can be as short as one word, such as: "Go." Technically, a sentence must contain at least a subject and a verb, but in this case, the subject (you) is assumed and understood. lets see how far I can get this fool to go OK, as per earlier, fuck your 'cliffnotes' give me some real fucking reference. What does that have to do with the one word 'retards'? I didn't realize retard was a verb. sets bait retard. see what I did? Maybe if you tell me which of the five things he did and which of the five things he didn't, instead of playing google with cliffnotes... pulls puppet strings :rolleyes2: BTW, why didn't you respond to this person, who called you out on your signature? Ben Frankiln wouldn't know what the word bacteria meant... Bacteria were first observed in 1676, and were called "animalcules" ... The name bacterium was introduced much later, in 1838. Ben was dead by then. silly quote is silly.

    Yes...at one time I would have caught that. In fact, the older I get, the better I was.

    Perhaps if you had just taken a few seconds to say to yourself, "hmmm, that fucking nana guy is always up to something, I should probably try reading between the lines knowing this guy, he's always on everyone's ass for kicks..." you would have seen: Plays alongFirst off, blah blah blah ... lets see how far I can get this fool to goOK, as per earlier, blah blah blah ...
