Socialism on the march

Welcome to the June 1, 2009 edition of nobama blog carnival.

First, let me extend my deep apologies that this round of Bama Bashing has been delayed, due to an illness. (Even some of the little microbial critters may have been swayed by Obama's campaign rhetoric.) Anyway, they're off my case now and I'm feeling better, so I am happy to present you with another serving of thought-provoking commentary from bloggers united in opposition to smooth-talking socialism.

I chose to include this candid photo of "The One" (taken by a substitute on the White House cleaning staff before the President was fully made up for his official appearance, I'm told) as the image for this carnival edition, because it shows something of his character that most of the official press release photos do not convey.

An important reminder: Tea Party season is not over, there will be another round for July 4. Stand up for liberty!

On to the entries, folks--we've got another great round of blogging here and I want to extend my deepest thanks to those authors who submitted their posts. Please keep up the good work! Thanks to our readers. May sanity prevail next election!

DWSUWF presents The Arrogance of "Hope" posted at Divided We Stand United We Fall: "The comparison that is most apt is a comparison to the arrogance of Richard Nixon, as exemplified by the money quote in the Frost/Nixon interview - 'When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal.'"
