Tim Thomas, the goalie for the Stanley Cup winning Boston Bruins, declined an invitation to the White House and the opportunity to gaze upon the royal Narcissist. Massachusetts is aghast at the nerve of a mere athlete making a political statement; especially when the statement is in direct contradiction of the state’s love of Socialism and their great hope for the future of the world.
Massachusetts Governor Patrick thought the grievous snub was a direct result of the public’s lack of courtesy and grace; although, goalies have never been known to be overly courteous, and their grace consists primarily of moves orchestrated to stop hundred mile an hour pucks and defending their nets with a ferocity that few of us can comprehend; however, Mr Thomas has exhibited qualities that mark him as an independent thinker and not the sort of sap that responds to the ultimate fan, who wants desperately to be among great athletes and cultivate a symbiotic mutual admiration.
Governor Patrick of Massachusetts expressed Liberal outrage at the official snub, but was willing to concede that Thomas has the right to his own opinion, and this is truly a notable concession from the Governor of a Socialist State. We should all be thankful that citizens living in Massachusetts still have the right to personal opinions and the right to refuse an invitation from a Socialist President.
“He’s a phenomenal hockey player and he’s entitled to his views,” Patrick said. “It just feels like we are losing in this country basic courtesy and grace.”
The governor said while he strongly disagreed with many of the policies of former President George W. Bush, a Republican, he was always respectful when they met.
“I always referred to him as Mr. President, I stood when he came into the room. There are rules to live by,” Patrick said.
The opinions of Thomas were well stated and reflected disappointment with the current president. He made an effective statement in a Liberal State that will probably make his tenure with the Bruins more difficult in the future.
I believe the Federal government has grown out of control, threatening the Rights, Liberties, and Property of the People.
This is being done at the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial level. This is in direct opposition to the Constitution and the Founding Fathers vision for the Federal government.
Because I believe this, today I exercised my right as a Free Citizen, and did not visit the White House. This was not about politics or party, as in my opinion both parties are responsible for the situation we are in as a country. This was about a choice I had to make as an INDIVIDUAL.
This is the only public statement I will be making on this topic.
Actually, not everyone is swept away by those who presume royal status, and many refuse to participate in the charade of political lunacy that supposedly honors those of great achievement so that they can stand in awe of those of outstanding mediocrity. Throughout Queen Elizabeth’s Reign, she has been snubbed by over 250 high achievers who refused to participate in receiving honors of dubious merit from a near meaningless monarchy. Many artists and writers: Lucian Freud, Henry Moore, Roald Dahl, CS Lewis, Francis Bacon, and my personal favorite Twentieth Century British author Aldous Huxley, have chosen to forego the honor of a personal audience and awards like the CBE, Commander of the Order of the British Empire.
The late author, JG Ballard, summed up his antipathy with the British Monarchy:
“The whole thing is a preposterous charade, thousands of medals are given out in the name of a non-existent empire. It makes us look like a laughing stock.”
Although Ballard and Thomas expressed different reasons for their aversion to participating in a silly charade; essentially, they both refused to be sucked in by the phony pomp and circumstance so typical among rulers attempting to define their own dubious relevance among individuals of merit. Congratulations Tim Thomas, you stand among many men of merit who have refused to be used by those who want to borrow your fame and accomplishments. Hopefully, you will play on several more Stanley Cup Teams in the future, regardless of their location.

Good for Thomas. And good to see your insightful contributions to the fight again, Skookum.
I do a lot of research. I have come across something that has not been talked about. I am making the assumption Barry and company want to keep this quiet
UN agenda 21. – abolishment of all private property. On 9 June 2011 Barry signed executive order EO 13575 with direct orders to carry out agenda 21
Don’t believe me? The sources are cited above. This man is extremely dangerous.
Good to see you gracing this site with yet another informative yarn Skook, I enjoyed it. It is funny though that our Narcissist was snubbed by England’s.

Antics: The cat is an excellent analogy, but for more reasons than the obvious: as HRH the Royal Narcissist, a rejection, especially a rejection by one of his heroes, an athlete, is felt like a slash across the face by the recumbent, and seemingly harmless cat. Yes, the Narcissist would like to give this uppity goalie a royal tongue lashing, much like the implied warning to Governor Brewer and thereby instruct him on an athlete’s protocol and responsibility when summoned by the chief royal personage of this country. Alas, Goalie Thomas remains even more aloof than Governor Brewer, and like the pictured cat, a publicized royal snit will likely produce an even more grievous wound than the perceived “high clawing” penalty across the face.
We must remember, our president is extremely thin skinned and his royal snubbing in November may literally be not only his Waterloo, but be his complete undoing; since, there has never been such an outstanding mediocrity, achieve so much by accomplishing so little. Thus the daring young trapeze artist flies so high without the skills and foundation required for such influential positions; thus the fall will be tragic for the man for whom calls to end term limits of the presidency reverberated across this vast nation. Indeed, the calls to repeal that Amendment that stands in defiance of tyranny and Socialist domination died out as Americans realized they had bought little more than a pig in a poke, and now rather than worrying over being declared president for life, he is struggling against the odds to survive the next election.
Woe to the mighty and vain who fall, for his descent will be his personal tragedy, but our redemption. For in this final act, of this play of meteoric rise of an outstanding mediocrity and his precipitous failure, will be the recovery of our economy, but more importantly our liberty.
@Disenchanted:
It’s not just President Obama, Gov. Romney is a strong supporter of Agenda 21 as well, with the Massachusetts
Climate Protection Plan he committed his State to adhering to it.

Speaker Newt has said both yes and no about supporting it.
Santorum has not made any comment about it one way or another
Only Ron Paul has steadfastly said it was wrong.
Sorry for getting of topic Skook.
Skook,
Great as always. My slant? Yesterday here in Vegas, a radio station was asking if you would have your picture taken with the President whether you liked him or not. I said no because I feel he is such an embarrassment to the office and the country that I could not remotely stand by someone who I feel is against everything I and our founding fathers hold dear! Great job Tim Thomas1 Practicing one’s right to Freedom of Speech and expression takes a lot of guts in this PC age of idiocy, especially considering one now becomes an enemy of the state in doing so!
@Skook…. Post #5… very well said… and eloquently so!
Hopefully more states will invoke the eligibility issue on NObama like GA is doing, and the ‘one’ will be disqualified in several states this fall!
If the states can prove he is ineligible for office, everything he has done can be overturned!
We can pray this will happen. The truth will eventually set us all free!
Fact check on aisle… er, comment… #6.
The only candidate who has been actively starting/mentioning Agenda 21 on the campaign trail and in debates is Newt, as even the not so conservative US News and Report mentioned last Novemenber.
CNN was dissing Newt for placing any emphasis on the UN agenda at the same time inthat debate.
On the flip side, Ron Paul has never brought it up as a debate subject… but he did respond to questions if posed last August by a tea party member. Not a peep out of him about it since then, and certainly not a specific debate point.
Apparently not tops on his list, or he only waits for the crowd to bring it up. But, like Newt, he also has the correct response.
INRE the “couch potato ad”, as I like to call it… two points. One, Gingrich admitted that was a mistake. OMG… an imperfect human who makes mistakes. Gasp! Sorta like the Heritage Foundations original support for a mandate in the late 80s/early 90s (which pulled a lot of conservative pols on board), but a reversal of that opinion when the mandate was analyzed as a Constitutional issue, and not solely an economic solution.
OMG.. the Heritage Foundation was *wrong*! I’ll never trust them again! LOL Yes, that’s sarcasm…
But the general thrust of the “couch potato” ad was a call to action for climate protection (not specific in legislation or devil in the details). Ergo, it could only incriminate Newt on whether he was an AGW believer or skeptic at that moment in time. Newt, I suspect, is not the only person to convert from AGW believer to skeptic.
But the ad bears no resembles to a non binding treaty agreement that encompasses far more than just AGW beliefs.
Second, as Newt deliberately broaches the subject on the campaign trail and in the televised debates, he notes it’s particularly heinous since it’s the federal government, acting on a treaty agreement that’s never been ratified, and implemented at the local level.
Truth in campaigning… it’s important. Both Newt and Ron Paul are on the money for Agenda 21. But at least Newt’s bringing the subject up for debate. Hopefully Ron Paul will start doing the same, instead of only approaching it when asked.
We return you to your originally scheduled topic.
I sent Newt $100 this morning on general principles. I absolutely hate the way the GOP insiders and elite media (even Drudge) are treating the man. So in my case, all their slurs and slander backfired.
@Poppa_T: Thanks I realize I was off topic but couldn’t find a better place for it.
Great picture, Skook. – “My, but doesn’t his suit fit well.” (Punchline to a very old joke. Couldn’t help it.)
The current version of the Sun King has, from day one, brought to parties at the W.H., bus-loads of well-off admirers, sufficiently dipped in sycophancy, in order for them to pay homage. They could then return to whence they came and spread the word about how ‘personable’ and great Barry is. It’s amazing how many of these Holywood and sports doofusses have appeared on late night TV to repeat the refrain. This parade of uninformed coolaid drinkers is very reminiscent of Slick Willie’s parties and his ‘use’ of the Lincoln Bedroom.
@Disenchanted: #3,
. . . . Safe assumption.
Everyone beholden to Obama will be on this new Council, even Timmy G. What an illustrious bunch. They will give their future monarch, control over all “food, fiber, and energy” in America.
Obama has dreams of holding the newly created position of demi-god at the UN whenever he gets heaved from the White House. He will be crowned with help from Soros.
His Executive Order buttressing Article 21, is a critical cornerstone of the edifice he is constructing for himself and Jarrett. A new world order in his mind is one thing, but the MSM and Congress letting it happen is another.
Don’t just beat the drums lightly . . . .

yes I think so too, and it seems to not have been seriously taken, and he knows the people find this too incredible to take it seriously, and that’s how he get away with it, we can read it right in front of our eyes and many would think the same thing, LIKE NEVER IN AMERICA,
and one day like now, you find a change in this COUNTRY different, and broken down in hope and spirits and no jobs, is it another part of his agenda done with, and what is next,
you are right, very dangerous, because no one believe he will do it, and he does,
just like the gun running, the increase power of TSA, ecetera, people of good faith and mind are writing more books about the warning than never before.
the JEWS, said it cannot happen here in GERMANY, WHILE THEY WHERE CARRIED IN TRAINS TO THE PRISON , OR FUMIGATED TO DEATH, THEY WHERE LURED WITH WORDS OF;’ IT’S TO PROTECT YOU’
what’s the gap between ” never in AMERICA, IT CAN’T HAPPEN”
@Richard Wheeler: Well, at least you will take a look at it; which is a much better response than the eye rolling “helicopter” comment. Don’t you think?
Yes … without governmental controls, Newt and Timmy could have all them poor kids cleaning their toilets.

From articles I have read, the Kyoto Protocol will turn all Federal property over to UN control. This would include Federal buildings, the White House, Congress, military bases, etc. Obama wants to sign it.

I am just talking about your thinking … the ‘thing’ that presumably gets you to your conclusion.
This we’re signing the deed over to the UN is just ridiculous.
The biggest threat to citizen democracy (one citizen, one vote), is dollar democracy (one dollar one vote, many dollars many votes), which by the way came outta your (R) SCOTUS, which sees $$$ as free speech and co(R)po(R)ations as people (but ‘special’ people since it still grants them limited liability).

I FEAR where our country is going. That is why I joined the Tea Party movement. Unlike the organizations that you might belong to, the Tea Party is thousands of INDEPENDENT groups fighting to stop the increasing size of government, increasing taxes, increasing number of our freedoms that are disappearing, and other things that the US Constitution says we can have that the politicians don’t want us to have any more.
The R or D doesn’t apply to me. I don’t belong to any party and I want ALL politicians thrown out and to start over.

I became a birther AFTER “studying closely,” and studying a lot of things for a long time. I have an open mind and want to know the truth. If Obama can disprove the things being said about his birth certificate and Social Security number, why doesn’t he?
Aren’t you the least bit curious about why he isn’t responding to the accusations? Doesn’t it bother you that he is using another person’s Social Security card and that the birth certificate has been proven fake? Remember George Bush’s fake military papers the propaganda media came up with. Dan Rather lost his job over it. As I remember, you said they were fake. Why wouldn’t the propaganda media try fake papers again? They just need to hire better fakers.

OBAMA ELIGIBILITY COURT CASE…BLOW BY BLOW
anticsrocks
wow, will you follow up on it, I hope, but what about the election, what do we do now,
maybe NEWT should be alert, hope CURT AND SKOOKUM READ IT,
bye
@anticsrocks: #33
World Net Daily has been reporting on all if the issues brought up in the case. I suggest you sign on for their emails. You should have pasted some of the proceedings for all to read, especially the libs. I especially liked the following:
DNC language does NOT include language stating Obama is Qualified while the RNC document DOES. This shows a direct difference trying to establish that the DNC MAY possibly have known that Obama was not qualified.
She was hired to look into Obama’s background and found a Social Security number for him from 1977. Professional opinion given that this number was fraudulent. The number used or attached to Obama in 1977, shows that the true owner of the number was born in the 1890. This shows that the number was originally assigned to someone else who was indeed born in 1890 and should never have been used by Obama.
Same SS number came up with addresses in IL, D.C. and MA.
Document entered regarding SS number assigned to Obama. SS number is not verified under E Verify. It comes back as suspected fraudulent. This is the system by which the Government verifies ones citizenship
Smorgasbord
what do you think will follow
MITT ROMNEY is quite arrogant toward NEWT GINGRICH,I hope FLORIDA NOTICE IT, THE GAP OF MONEY is to his [ROMNEY ] advantage, and he is not a gracious person, to take advantage of that surplus over NEWT BY having messages over messages to hurt his opponent with lies which wont stop,
he look more like OBAMA AS HE GOES,
@ilovebeeswarzone: #36
Things that will happen if Obama is declared ineligible to run for president:
(1) I will get the biggest steak dinner paid for by my financial planner. He won’t complain since Obama won’t be running again.
(2) If he doesn’t qualify this election, he didn’t qualify in the last election. This means that every appointment, executive order, contracts and laws signed into law, etc., are voided.
(3) The democratic party will be investigated.
(4) King Obama and a lot of his court will move from the White House to the Big House.
(5) The democratic party will disappear.
(6) We will get all of the money and freedoms back that Obama took from us. (Let me dream this one for a while)
The only two bad things I see if Obama is declared illegal are:
(1) Joe Biden takes over.
(2) Joe pardons Obama and his court, but they have to be convicted first to be pardoned.
Smorgasbord
yes but what happen with the election, It has to happen and
before
that should be kept under until the time for the last debate comes in order to kill 2 birds at the same time so the conservatives get to come in, and I think the judge will figure that one too.
@ilovebeeswarzone: #39
It all depends on how long the trial will last. Without Obama or his lawyer there, it shouldn’t take long. We will just have to wait and see what happens. Have you ever seen a big building implode. They are fun to watch. I wonder how long it will take for this building to implode.
Smorgasbord
I’m thinking of the dangers, very possible too and lives threatening for citizens,some on his side rising up to prevent the justice to happen every steps will have to be coordinated by the FBI, one at a time,
to be figured out the related dangers possible, so to be ready to counter it,
you just have to check the OAKLAND 400 rioting and causing many police officers to be wounded while arresting them. that give an idea, and you know they where incited by SOROS and friends,
that is telling a lot,
who knows it might even be related, to that as a pre scenario, which was thought of, who can tell.
they know it’s coming, they surely have an exit planned,
@Smorgasbord: I found the proceedings fascinating for two reasons.
1. Of course, the MSM will ignore and bury this story until they have no choice.
2. Now everything is officially part of a court record, which Obama will eventually have to address.
The upcoming election should be interesting.
@ilovebeeswarzone: #41
That is why I am glad that I live in the part of Idaho that I do. Most people I talk to in my area are conservative and have several guns and plenty of ammo if they need it.
My biggest concern is that if Obama feels that he is going to be found out, what is to keep him from secretly getting on Air Force One and going to a Muslim country or China and giving them the plane?
@anticsrocks: #42
Thanks for the link. I will try to follow the story on the web sight. If the case goes against Obama and he is proven to not be qualified to be president, and if the Supreme Court refuses to hear any more cases like this, then they are admitting they know he is an illegal and but still want him as president.
Smorgasbord
I always read that the USA a NATION of LAW, and how would it be accepted,
if the civilians
get punish by the law then if he is found illegal and was leading for 4 years, this is so much more.

Anticsrocks Top of the morning to ya, I notticed you were up late with your new best friend Smorg.
Shame you and Dr. John had a fallout Seems you couldn’t handle his reasoned assessment that Romney would be a much better choice against BHO than Gingrich.
He seems a nice enough chap,an obviously proud Birther, and a strong believer that BHO is a Muslim.Do you agree?
Are you close enough to Idaho that you might share his arsenal of weapons as needed?
After “Obama’s trial and conviction and his escape in Air Force One to a Muslim country” no telling the need.
I’m looking forward to further tales from you guys.Exciting stuff.
BTW Smorg You mentioned Obama would give Air Force One to a Muslim country. Think maybe he could sell it for enough to continue his elitist lifestyle? just a thought.Keep em’ coming. Your lucky to have an ally like anticsrocks.
Semper Fi Maybe you can get Col. West or Sheriff Joe to lead your militia.

that is why, NEWT GINGRICH MUST BE THE WINNER, he won’t back down on this,
he is the fighter, he know the inside game in all GOVERNMENTS CORNERS, HE CAN FIX IT,
and return the COUNTRY to her normal, and get the culprits
where they belong, and finish that page faster so to
repair the damages of these years. he know how too,
because he was there long enough, the other has more money, but money should not be the factor to have one win over the other, that is wrong if it come to that,
but with what we see, there is so many other wrongs to fix, it wouldn’t be surprising if the one with money win.
