Barack Obama's Butterfly Effect

July 20, 2008 4:45 PM

Today on CBS's Face the Nation, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., in Afghanistan, told the paparazzi-pursued correspondent Lara Logan that "the objective of this trip was to have substantive discussions with people like President Karzai or Prime Minister Maliki or President Sarkozy or others who I expect to be dealing with over the next eight to 10 years.

"And it's important for me to have a relationship with them early, that I start listening to them now, getting a sense of what their interests and concerns are."

The notion that Obama will be dealing with world leaders for eighjt-to-ten years, possibly up through July 2018, suggests that either (a) he believes that not only will he be elected and re-elected, but the 22nd amendment will be repealed and he will be elected for a third term, OR (b) he was speaking casually and just meant two terms.

Obamamania has all the organic source material of a plastic hair brush. McCain is going to saunter into the White House...I feel it coming.

or (c), he’s just expecting to jump on the “statesman” gravy train afterwards, touring the world for two years to collect fees for services performed in the previous eight years.

Wake up Republicans. We are about to get real sh@@ for a President. Quit putting down McCain and get with it.

Another report I read earlier today said he was chastising Afghan President Karzai over how he's running his country: This Bozo thinks he's ALREADY president of the United States!!

He’ll pass an affirmative action law that will allow him two 5 year terms. One extra year for each of the additional 3 and1/2 states in the new USA of Obama.

that I start listening to them now

You are a G-D Senator of the United States, you dingleberry. You are STARTING to listen to these critical world leaders now? No wonder your views are 180 degrees off from reality.

The site selection just re-enforces Tappers point.

“This week Obama will have his words picked apart like never before, and it will be an international audience of not just opponents but actual enemies.

They will be watching and waiting to see if he kills any butterflies.”

and the msm will give him a pass...

The all mercifully and benevolent Messiah Obama has an opportunity to listen to the leaders of NATO for heaven sake if he would just hold a meeting of his committee

Agreed! For those rabid Anti-McCainiacs here in Freepland, here is some math you should be able to understand:

1 vote for Obama + 0 vote for McCain = 1 vote for Obama

1 vote for Obama + 1 vote for McCain = draw.

Do you get it now?

I have come to think that the people running Obama don’t really expect him to be “running” anything. He’ll just front for them. They needed someone this dumb and egotistic.

To me it is simple.. This nation can survive a McCain administration.. I don’t think he will be in for 2 terms just one.. So no big deal.. I’m not holding my nose when I’m voting McCain.. As for Barak administration, it would take generations to clean up the mess if he is in it for 2 terms. McCain is not perfect, but who is..

NEWSFLASH: The AP is leading with something other than the Great Messiah...Mrs. Clinton has raised 2.5 million toward her debt. Drudge is featuring Hollywood at the box office. Could the Drive-Bys be a little embarrassed by Boy Wonder on his World Tour?

Is it possible that he knows he won’t win and he is looking to the future with these year spans?

Ten years? does he think terms are 5 years each or is that one of the changes he intends to make?

As soon as it gets ratified by each of the 57 states.
