It’s hard to have an impact when everythign excapes you, isn’t degigolo?

It’s not my intent to turn you into a conservative. If you want to be a liberal, god bless you, be one. Who knows maybe one of you will come out with an idea to fix this mess. I for one don’t see it. I see the fox in charge of the hen house.

Please check out the facts that I’ve laid out they are real, its not paranoia. I for one would like to continue this discourse. I know you’re busy life/work/girl friend. Believe me I know how busy a girl friend can keep you. I’m married have children, try to operate a business, and am writing a book. Other than that, I have all the time in the world on my hands.

I think we are both trying to hold the same flag up.

And as I mentioned earlier, Obama condemned the anti-Americanism from Europe. He also praised America’s role in rebuilding Europe. I’ll argue some of your statements on Europe’s anti-Americanism rings with truth.

I too was offended by the bow. But I soon got over it. I guess you’ll just add it to your list of ways Obama is an appeaser.

Enjoy your tea party. Just make sure you spell things correctly on your cute little signs, moran.

As for your man of change , I don’t think he can change a diaper. He’s playing the same old political game every other politician plays. There are some big differences here between him and the repulicans you take pot shots at. So far he’s tripled the national debt. Here’s some news for you. The next wave of repos are about to hit, the extended arm loans. We’re looking at a cool trillion dollars in defaults. Six months from now the ninja loans will default, that’s another half trillion. Guess who set all this up. Let me help you here, Bill Clinton, 1995. And, ACORN helped him do it. That’s real history. Your Obama, man was the legal representative of ACORN. He personally was involved in creating this fiasco.
If you don’t believe me, research what I just said. Now he is trying to act the hero in the international stage and his ignorance is really coming through. The whole world is laughing at him. The emporer has no clothes.

Europe’s anti Americanism stemms mainly froma huge inferiority complex. They can’t stand the thought that we saved them in WWI, WWII, and the Cold WAR. Our economy was the envy of the world. We influence art, science, industry, medicine, economy etc. They are blindly jealous. Go ahead and kiss their collective asses.

I will never forget your man bowing down for the king of Saudi Arabi, nothing ever done by a head of state in this country was ever so demeaning. It won[‘t change a thing. The Saudis will continue to stab us in the back every chance they get.

By the way if you want change, I’ll be glad to break a dollar for you. Yes I will enjoy my tea party.

Referring back to my one and only post here: “After reading some of these posts I have to wonder who the arrogant, dismissive and derisive ones really are.”

Frankly you just proved my point by referring to 24 posters as “spooks, idiots and assholes.”

You’re as bad as everyone who wants Obama to fail. I for one did not agree with many of Bush’s policies. I was against the Iraq war then as I am now. But I never ever said or wanted Bush or America to fail. A president often has to face difficult critical decisions and sometimes unpopular ones. But we should never want him to fail. If Obama fails, we all fail.

But I take it you are referring to his trip to Europe in particular. A lot of attention has been made regarding some of the things he said in Europe.

Obama admitted that in the past, America had “shown arrogance” and had “been dismissive, even derisive” of Europe, which we had. He also said that Europe’s rampant anti-Americanism was “insidious.” Neither attitude, he said, was “wise,” nor do they “represent the truth.” He also said that part just after the “shown arrogance” comments.

So it is not only arrogant, dismissive and derisive of people like Seah Hannity to take Obama’s words out of context to promote their own narrow minded agenda. Its also very sad some gullible lemmings only heard those words without hearing what else he said. Or bothering to look further than the likes of Fox News or Rush Limbaugh for their sources of information.

So enjoy your gay little tea parties. The rest of us will be doing what we can to help change things for the better for everyone, including you.

Namaste.

There is no way that our country could fight the three powers mentioned and win. Fighting them is not the answer. Sucking up to them isn’t either.
Look at all the respect Obama garnered from any of the three mentioned powers. Happy New Year Iran.

I want to know how the Bush administration weaken the US militarily. Don’t you think that the Sec of Def cancelling major weapons programs is going to hurt us more than anything Bush did? China and Russis are trying to duplicate the f22 yet we cancelled it. China is trying to build a blue water navy, we’re cutting back on making capitol ships. We are going for a coastal navy instead.

Keep bringing the questions I’ll give you the answers.

I’ll be honest, I’m not overly optimistic that many people are going to get-it in the next two to four years. I think we will be blaming Bush for America’s problems for decades. Look at two of the major Democrat/Republican policy argument over the past eight years: Global warming and the war in Iraq.

Global warming has become a total joke, the latest punchline from the IPCC being that it’s going to take a 20 year break due to ‘natural variation’ but will come on strong after that. Like as though that doesn’t totally vindicate the skeptic argument that these warming/cooling cycles are largely due to natural variation.

And the war in Iraq has turned into total military victory, a devoted ally in Iraq, the humiliation and discrediting of Al Qaeda in the Muslim world and finally the evacuation of enriched uranium from the hands of terrorists. All of this should be largely vindicating for those of us on the right side of these issues, but people really don’t get it. If they can’t be rational about Global warming and Iraq, how can we expect them to be rational about assigning blame to Obama? I’m not going to hold my breath.

Obama has it all wrong. The pitchforks should be pointed towards DC.

On a side note, is it me or does anyone think we are getting tested with Somali pirates jumping boats, journalists being accused of spying in N. Korea and Iran, and so forth? We are starting to get stomped on. Something so ain’t right. God help us all.

Another thing, I perused some of the comments and one thing I have observed not just on this website but on others is that people who tend to lean towards Obama and have intense dislike of Bush usually resort to telling people shut the f up and now be subservient to the reign of the O. It’s interesting because the thing is that I think there is a lot of emotion that is being used and it really doesn’t make much sense. What exactly is it that Bush did to peeve people? Tell me exactly so I can be better informed. Sway me to your side.

My own observations and opinions is that he was a lousy speaker and lacked charisma. I am totally convinced that was his biggest crime and people hated him so because he didn’t tell people what they wanted to hear. He didn’t make people feel all warm and fuzzy. He was absolutely awful to listen to. This theory of why people hated him so much might be credible because we are a nation so into the superficial. We are a nation of addicts. We just want to feel good all the time. Tell me what I want to hear, let me live good, and then I will be fine. Me, me, me. So I attribute a lot of the intense hatred to people being in withdrawal for 8 years. They were used to Clinton and his schmoozing and then…boom… we were hit with a president really bad at “speeching” (one of my students came up with that term…love it)

Bush may not have been the greatest president but I think he did keep the nation from totally falling apart. He wasn’t a rabblerouser. He kept a level of dignity that I don’t see occuring right now. We also didn’t have any terrorist attacks other than 9/11 which I think was planned in the Clinton era and probably a result of what went on during his years. Also, I believe, if you look back to Clinton years there were more terrorist attacks or attempted terrorist attacks in this country than we had in the past 8 years. With Obama in office along with lots of Clinton people, I fear we may experience a lot of problems with terrorism because he wants to talk and apologizes for America. I don’t think that is good diplomacy. Talking, bargaining, negotiating would seem okay, but to go being all apologetic he has already undermined his/our status.

This is not about Republicans, Democrats, blacks, whites, rich, or poor despite what Obama would have you think. I think this is about being an American. What does it mean to be an American? This should be a wonderful, strong, prosperous, free nation and screwballs if others don’t like us. They most likely are jealous. We don’t have to kowtow or apologize for who we are. I fear that we are at risk of losing a lot.

So with that said, I am not going to sit down and shut up just because Bush was in office for 8 years people and people who didn’t like him had to put up with him and now it is their turn. That is utterly juvenile!

May those who hate Bush find their peace within these next four years.
