This is the MSNBC slogun used for Obama's campaign while Obama is using "forward" as his slogun!

It was not me that first noticed it but I heard it on the radio and agree with the host of the radio show that it is a new low for Obama to use campaigning during a disaster.
Oh, like no one can see through Mitt's 'Disaster Event' that he held in Ohio today when he was supposed to 'give up campaigning' due to the storm. Puhlease.

And people think my threads are petty.

This about proves my point.

Obama Slogan: Forward

As history shows, those who prescribed to Karl Marx and his views used the word "Forward" as propaganda to attract support in taking Europe beyond capitalism and into communism and socialism.

Vladimir Lenin was a Russian communist revolutionary, politician and political theorist who served as the leader of the Russian SFSR from 1917. In 1905, Vladimir Lenin founded the publication, "Vpered," the Russian word that means "Forward."

A popular program that allows D.C. public school students to receive tuition for private school education had its funding cut under President Obama's 2013 budget.

Obama has cut funding for the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program, under which some 1,600 public school students have received $7,500 each annually towards private school education. The program was created in 2004 and functioned until 2009, when Democrats in Congress threatened to cut off funding.

Speaker of the House John Boehner and house republicans voted and re-instated the program.

We know what slogan is, but what is a slogun. It is that a gun too stupid to fire?

Beats Romney comparing cleaning up a hurricane to cleaning up 'rubbish' off a football field in high school.
