A 44 year old can straighten up in a few years also!
LOL! There was a lively discussion here the other day on whether he actually quit smoking or if he still sneaks a puff from time-to-time. Man, if this is all that a supposed-conservative can come up with, we may as well just concede elections for the next 48 years.
Wow, if Obama eats live kittens, we’ve got this election in the bag.
“Nah....just your ordinary garden-variety, run-of-the-mill Commie/Democrat.”
Fixed it for you.
Paranoia run rampant, geez
I don’t intend to move on until this thread dies a deserved quick death. A stand for the dignity of this forum has to be attempted by someone.
Oh please...
Well yes ... and no...
When Mr. Obama speaks, about 90% of what he says are meaningless, feel good platitudes. But you are correct, if you pay attention - and actually capture what he says - he's a solid Red.
Higher taxes,
Greater government control (of everything),
Complete socialization of the health industry ...
I actually haven't heard him come out on his pro-abortion stance. His record speaks louder than words on this one, but I haven't heard him say anything about it.
Incompetence on the Foreign Affairs front (not that he's actually bragged about this one, but it comes out as so).
Against gun ownership (unless you are an 'approved' hunter ... hunting in 'approved places')...
Etc...
But basically I agree with the poster's contention (except for the sociopath diagnosis) - Mr. Obama speaks mostly mush.
I do agree that we should focus on what he does say (or what he has done) - and stop getting distracted with 'smoking', middle names, alleged mohammedness, blathery speaking style, 'messianic' attraction of kool-aid drinkers, his wife's kookiness, and focus and expose his positions:
Communist to the core.
Pro-Abort/Pro-Death
Open Borders (although this is a weak argument since all the candidates left standing are open borders)
Inexperienced
Dangerous comments regarding Foreign Policies
And although some might call it a distraction -- I am still appalled by his 'church' membership, and would broadcast their 'about us' page loud and wide. It is sickening...
What is up with the cult of personality? Can you name me a sane leader who speaks in messianic tones?
I hear you.
You came up with all this, after just listening to a soundbite?
After months of wondering what is up with this guy. Can you help me answer the question in 31?
He must be the anti-christ...only logical answer.
Thanks! ;)
"For who now is your father if it is not me? I am the well spring, from which you flow. When I am gone, you will have never been. What would your world be, without me?"
I agree with some of what you said. I do not think he is a commie. He is a far left democrat. He is naive about foreign policy. He has suspicious muslim friends including his minister.
He has strengths however and that gives me pause and makes me think he might be hard to beat.
Yup, Che Hussein Obama and Bill Belicheat win the awards for sociopaths of the year- the latter is the reigning champ from 2007, and the former will take the crown in 2008, winning a close battle over Roger Roid clemens.
