What Calvin Coolidge thinks of Obama

[glockmail]

No doubt disgusted as he comments on our President-elect's dismissal of Pennsylvanians for "clinging to their guns and religion".

No other theory is adequate to explain or comprehend the Declaration of Independence. It is the product of the spiritual insight of the people. We live in an age of science and of abounding accumulation of material things. These did not create our Declaration. Our Declaration created them. The things of the spirit come first. Unless we cling to that, all our material prosperity, overwhelming though it may appear, will turn to a barren sceptre in our grasp. If we are to maintain the great heritage which has been bequeathed to us, we must be like-minded as the fathers who created it. We must not sink into a pagan materialism. We must cultivate the reverence which they had for the things that are holy. We must follow the spiritual and moral leadership which they showed. We must keep replenished, that they may glow with a more compelling flame, the altar fires before which they worshiped.

Not really. Coolidge saw what we see today, people forgetting about the source of their freedom.

 

[Epsilon Delta]

Whoa, is there one on what Taft thinks about Obama?? Or Maybe Benjamin Harrison?

Maybe this signified Republicans returning to their deeeep roots!

He was a common sense conservative which is exactly what this country needs right now.

Obama is what we need right now and what the majority voted for. If you don't like what the people voted in, then wait for the next election or find a new country.

Live with it like we had to do for 8 years of bushiitis.
