This Guy Is Jerkin' Our Chain....

[idb]

Geeez, you guys are dense....

...not incite....

make fun of!

Don't you understand what the title means? Don't they have 'google' where you are?

Incite OR make fun of, the quote comes out of BOTH Holy books, so the "theory" makes no fucking sense. Are YOU that dense?

Why don't you google 'five pillars' and see what sort of references come up.

As they say in the South, 'There’s no education in the second kick of a mule.'

Don't forget that The Bible is still in the lead!
Two quotes to one.

 

[idb]

How many presidents would use words from communist russia to incite the people of America?
Oh and about the bible obama has missquoted one verse about the brothers keeper.
It comes from the OT and was used after cain killed his brother able.

What are you talking about?

No matter how obama tries to change the verbage and meanings of a word, we are at war with terrorist who use Islam as their religion. They live by the letter of the law of thier religion. Their religion demands that nonbeleivers either submit or die.

Just like when communist rissa we were at war with them called the cold war.
No president would use the words of Russia to incite the people of America.

And obama misquoted the I am my brothers keeper quote from the bible.
It was used after cain killed able. The actual quote is

Am I my brothers keeper?

If you consider that the 'pillars' reference was Islamic then there were also two references from The Bible in his speech as well.

And he didn't necessarily quote The Bible...he stated that he considered himself his brother and sisters keeper.

 

[idb]

The difference is.

Russia was our enemy and we were engaged in a cold war with them.

Islam is not our enemy but it's just a religion.

I said we are at war with terrorist who use Islam as their religion. They live by the letter of the law of thier religion. Their religion demands that nonbeleivers either submit or die.
Why use words from someone who is your enemy, no matter the source?

Isn't one of his chief advisors the Imam from the Ground Zero Death Mosque?
Or something...I'm not sure, I might have just made up a new conspiracy.
Ooops!!

YouTube - Petition to Redistribute GPA Scores

A common rhetorical fallacy, the false equivalency. Everyone starts out with the same GPA. They aren't passed down from parent to child. You don't get a higher GPA just because you already have a high one. And people with high GPAs aren't constantly scheming of ways to raise their GPAs even higher by screwing over people with low GPAs.

I'll take the analogy one step further, even though it doesn't deserve it. Right now the people with high GPAs get to look at the grade book while they're taking the test.

I notice how there's that one kid's about to break it down for him, but he cuts away first. Wonder why he put that in at all? O'Keefe would have done better. This guy's an amateur.

OMG.... really?

I had a Grade Point Average when I was born? And I inherited it from my parents?

WHO FUCKING KNEW!!!!!

Did anyone see the President's message on the economy?

1. "We cannot rebuild this economy on the same pile of sand. We must build our house upon a rock. We must lay a new foundation for growth and prosperity – a foundation that will move us from an era of borrow and spend to one where we save and invest; where we consume less at home and send more exports abroad.

It's a foundation built upon five pillars that will grow our economy and make this new century another American century: new rules for Wall Street that will reward drive and innovation; new investments in education that will make our workforce more skilled and competitive; new investments in renewable energy and technology that will create new jobs and industries; new investments in health care that will cut costs for families and businesses; and new savings in our federal budget that will bring down the debt for future generations. That is the new foundation we must build. That must be our future – and my Administration's policies are designed to achieve that future."

2. Now, I understand that there are lots and lots of examples of incompetence from this adminsitration...but this is too much to be an accident.


3. Anyone who has done any reading re: Islam will recognize the phrase 'five pillars.'

a. The Five Pillars of Islam (arkān-al-Islām أركان الإسلام; also arkān ad-dīn أركان الدين "pillars of religion") are five basic acts in Islam, considered obligatory for all Muslims. These are summarized in the famous Hadith of Gabriel.[1][2][3][4]

The Qur'an presents them as a framework for worship and a sign of commitment to the faith. They are (1) the shahada (creed), (2) daily prayers (salat), (3) fasting during Ramadan (sawm), (4) almsgiving (zakat), and (5) the pilgrimage to Mecca (hajj) at least once in a lifetime.[5][6]

The minority Shia and majority Sunni both agree on the essential details for the performance of these acts.[7][8]

4. Now, I spend enough time on this board looking for ways to needle the opposition not to recognize when it is being done to me......

And, whether he is a Muslim or not, he knows what sets the opposition off, and he's makin' fun of us!

Unless he's really, really, really interested in thinking about becoming a reading teacher.

I think it's funny.

Drunk the Kool-aid, I see. Trying to draw a relevant comparison to rebuilding our ECONOMY on a "rock" solid foundation to the FAITH tenets of the "Five Pillars" of Islam is really a stretch.

I really feel bad that you've sunk so low. Really, I do.

 

[MaggieMae]

Hmmm...you're right.
The term of building one's house upon a rock comes from Matthew 7:22-27!

And sometimes a pillar is just a pillar: A column supporting a structure.

 

[MaggieMae]

Hmmm...you're right.
The term of building one's house upon a rock comes from Matthew 7:22-27!

OMG...there it is, Matthew 7:25
"winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on five pillars..."

NOT!


Pillars. Not rocks....pillars. Five pillars.

It seems that your nictatating membrane impairs your ability to view these posts....

So now it's rocks you take issue with?

 

[MaggieMae]

Wow. The president is an intelligent man. That phrase was not accidental. I just hope "rage boy" doesn't get all riled up about "borrowing" Mohammed's words.

He said 'WHAT????"

"Rage boy"?? When has he ever "raged"??

Oh, that guy in the pic. Sorry.

 

[MaggieMae]

We've got a river running past my town. There's a flood plain. It's a park. About a decade ago, a bunch of numb nuts managed to get some of the parkland for themselves and build houses. In a flood plain. Numb nuts.

And yet some of those same people who scream they want government out of their lives will be the first to be screaming when FEMA doesn't arrive on demand.

 

[MaggieMae]

You're not actually saying that he's putting badly hidden Islamic codes into his speeches, are you? Or that he's so Muslim he can't help but talk about five pillars?

I think you're just saying that it's bad politics to give more ammunition to those who call him Muslim. That's a reasonable point. But I disagree. For one thing, it's just not realistic to edit every single little thing to make sure that you don't give more ammunition to your wing nut detractors. If you try, things will end up looking really stale, and you'll still miss stuff.

Second, only the wing nuts are gonna care. No one who wasn't already going to vote for whoever runs against Obama is going to give a crap if he talked about five pillars or not. And they don't really care either. They're just looking for something to complain about. So he's not going to loose any votes over it.

Edit : ^Read your own damn post, will you? "We must build our house upon a rock."

It's actually possible that he or his speech writers are browsing holy books for inspiration. A lot of good poetry in there.

You are missing the point, Digs...

He's funnin' on folks!

Maybe he's saying...'go ahead, try to prove I'm Muslim...."

...or "I'm not Muslim, but keep worryin' about it...."

or simply having a good time with it.


But it's too much of a stretch to think it was an accident.

It's the kind of self-deprecatory joke pols use at the Press Club dinner.
Bet the folks at the White House are disappointed so many missed it.

That's not even a good job at back-pedaling. Why would YOU post anything "amusing" about Obama? Your intent was clear, PC.

 

[MaggieMae]

Hmmmm... It's possible that he's trying to encourage the wing nuts. Having a bunch of wing nuts raving about you makes reasonable people think you're reasonable.

Now you're catchin' on.


Alway good to have a sense of humor.



...but 'wingnut' is so cliched.

So is "BVDs" actually.

BTW, loved this comment:

5 Pillars huh? What are they? Here's my take.
Pillar 1. Debt-ridden taxpayer
Pillar 2. Debt-ridden future taxpayer
Pillar 3. European Socialism in America
Pillar 4. Collectivism sold to us with a silver tongue and a smile
Pillar 5. Shredding of the Constitution

Thank you Sigmund Freud.


I just read X-ey's post re: "five pillars of education..."


I don't think you're dissembling....I think you are clueless.


"Five pillars" has a very specific connection to Islam.


The only question that remains is to decide whether the usage is due to his Islamic background, which is undeniable, or his baiting the opposition.

You know, your posts add credence to the baiting idea, because it clearly also brings forth the maternal, protective instincts in the soft brains, like you.

The Left plays you guys like one-string guitars.
Can you say "DUPES"?

 

[PoliticalChic]

Pc your retard is showing, feel free to zip it up.

Amusing using a silly book of fairy tales and thinking they have any real meanings.

Merely because of your limitations prevent you from seeing the reality is no reason to believe that same do not exist.


Try harder.

1. Fascinating how someone will inadvertently reveal their deepest desires and not realize what they have done. That would be you.
You truly wish that I felt the need to "back-peddle"...to what, change my perspective due to some 'fear'????

2. You poor needy simpleton...watch how easily I skewer that premise. This, from the OP:

"Now, I spend enough time on this board looking for ways to needle the opposition not to recognize when it is being done to me......

And, whether he is a Muslim or not, he knows what sets the opposition off, and he's makin' fun of us!

I think it's funny. "

Read carefully. It says, and has always said, 'he's needling the opposition,' and 'it's funny.'
You understand what funny mean, don't you?

It means that your champion was using standard Muslim terminology, 'Five Pillars,' in an almost satirical manner to bait his opponents...me....but rather than perform the knee-jerk action, as you did...I laughed!

...and my laughter extends to folks like you who act as though Obama required you to 'defend' him!

3. Now then, as to some imagined fear that would engender 'back-tracking'....don't you know that I go UP Niagra Falls in a barrel?

Me fear?
Don't you know that when ghosts have campouts they tell PoliticalChic stories???

Me fear?
You've heard of the "Running of the Bulls in Pamplona'?
I'm what they're running from!

Here's why your backsliding to try to claim you were making a funny is so transparent. There are hundreds of right-wing websites which ALSO try to equate the "five pillars" to a subtle instruction of Islam.
