Obama

I know I am preaching to the choir here for the most part, but after listening to the media coverage of obama I have to vent.

For me he has gone from being an irritating liberal to a very scary man. I base this on the fact that he (obama) said Paraphrasing please feel free to look it up:
"Given the option to to do it over I would still vote against the troop surge."

and

"I didn't think the Sunnis and ****es would work out the way they did, inconjunction with how the troop surge worked."

This from a man who says he has the judgement to lead our Nation? He WILL NOT admit that he was wrong on the troop surge. He talks around it, example, he says that if the sunnis and ****es had continued to fight each other it wouldn't have worked. One reporter from ABC actually threw some difficult questions at him and he couldn't answer them. "Well if you are just going to ask me hypothetical questions.........." Senator you are applying for a job where hypothetical sitautions abound! If you can't think on your own and answer without a teleprompter you sir are in for a very rude awakening.

Arrogance and ignorance are not the best qualities to have in the leader of the most powerful Nation on earth. I am no huge McCain supporter but at least he has the maturity and experience needed to lead.

All of this of course is just my humble opnion.

Craig

Not to change direction here at all but did you or anyone watch Hannity & Colmes the other night. I forgot who it was they were talking with but they said that Husseins universal health care system he is pushing for would cover the 49 million currently uninsured. Did you know that almost 28 million of those are current illegal aliens.

I don't know about you guys but amnesty is one thing I hate, but seriously lets freakin all work our a$$es off so we can insure them as well. Chaps my a$$.

The dude is like 6.5% black. He's like 48% Arab. He just says he's black because he's trying to get the black vote. It's BS to me. Don't fake what you aren't.

I know how you feel, it gets really frustrating especially when you see the support he is getting. makes you wonder if they have a brain. Like I said before libs are just giving this country away and obama is there to help. scary stuff.

I dont know how he is getting that much support, without ever really saying anything. Im so sick of hearing about "change". I think everyone needs to get there heads out of their arse before its too late

"It's time for change."

Exactly what change are you referring to, Mr. Osama. (no, that is not a typo)

See I disagree. I think America has come far enough to have no problem with a black president. As I have said in the past I would have no problem with Condi Rice.
