Democrats are handing out Obama presidential coins

posted by Susan Johnson | 9:05am Wednesday September 24, 2008

Isn’t it a little early for his picture to be on money? Talk about presumptuous!

A company in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter is making commemorative coins for American presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
And if the Democratic candidate is elected to become the most powerful man in the world on November 4, it could open the floodgates for millions of pounds worth of business for the firm.

They must think they have this race sown up if they are already minting presidential coins. I guess we don’t need to vote, let’s just crown him now.

One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1.   She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life.  A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

Rest in peace, Internet Monk.

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments. The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others. Through it, I have seen people reach out

Great idea Michelle! Do you think you could get the rest of the Republicans to agree?

The coronation draws nearer with news today that the lobbying firm of McCain’s campaign manager Rick Davis was still receiving $15,000 a month from Freddie Mac for “consulting” (no work of any kind was performed) until last month. Davis apparently told Freddie Mac that he’d like to continue their arrangement, and Freddie Mac says they didn’t want to turn down McCain’s campaign manager.
This comes immediately after McCain told the world that Davis has had nothing to do with Freddie Mac since 2005 (at that time he’d already received nearly $2 million from FM & FM for “access” to McCain) and invited everyone to scrutinize Davis’s record.
Why hasn’t McCain fired Davis? And what kind of “reformer” has a guy like this managing his campaign? Which of the other 177 lobbyists on his campaign staff should we be scrutinizing?

I am sure this blantant lie by McCain will be soundly denounced on this blog. I know that Michele can not tolerate politicians lying and am sure she won’t let this one go.

Let’s see…when the Yankees had World Series hats ready to give out on the night they last won the championship, it must have been tremendous hubris for them to presume they would win. Obviously they had to order those hats ahead of time…we know they don’t just matrialize out of thin air. To think that they actually expected to win and planned ahead…for shame!!
When Rome was buring, Nero fiddled. When the economy of our country was in flames, little minds nitpicked about trivia.

This company is making 300 coins? Do you suppose that will be all the money in the whole country not in the hands of Wall Street by the election?

Wow. What a painfully stupid post, Michelle. Did you even read the article you linked?
A British coin company gets a contract to make 300 Obama presidential coins for the people who work on the Obama campaign. Big deal. How much do you want to bet that McCain’s got something similar planned for his team?
Honestly, if you’re going to talk about presumption, try looking in the mirror first. As usual, you missed the point of the article you’re quoting, and you showed off your ignorance for the world to see.

What do you expect? Our Michele is merely parroting the conservative whore, Michelle Malkin. This is what conservatism has come to these days. We have the Bush Administration officiating over the greatest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in our nation’s history and all Malkin and her fellow GOP prostitutes can do is complain about some gifts that Obama is preparing for his workers.
Is it any wonder that conservatives are so GD stupid that they vote Republican?

LMAO! oh, moonshadow… thanks!
will we honor mccain for his work on deregulation that allowed the market to take their risks that led us here by putting his mug on the $100? by the time they print the first mccain $100 bill, it will only be worth about 5 canadian loonies.
