It is easier to beat your wife (US citizens) than to go out and beat up a stranger or friend (foreign countries). All dems are spineless. jimmy hussien obummer the 2nd.

Wasn’t Monroe a slave owner?

Don’t worry. Maybe our resolute Secretary of State will send another cute novelty gift.

In the process, I'd bet she'll dress in her "Butter Yellow" pants suit. Stunning, as usual.

For those of us who lived during the Cuban missile crisis, we knew John Kennedy and Obama is no John Kennedy

Yep, I'd just gotten back off sea duty and was at Coronado Island when it went on lock-down during that crisis and instead of being safely aboard ship somewhere "out there", I was stuck on a major base, a perfect target!

And us Southerners could see JFK building his little dynasty, but lots of folks have conveniently forgotten that over the years. Oh what tangled webs we weave...

Tell your co-worker that the only thing that damaged Capitalism was the massive injections of ‘socialism’ into it. . .

Capitalism is not perfect (as nothing can be) but ‘socialism’ is simply an affirmation of evil. Live free or be a serf. . .

“Ask yourself what they will do to temporarily ease those factors:”

And remember a lot of the stimulus spending is timed to kick in right before the election. They weren’t stupid when they passed it.

The whole world knows Obama, is as weak as water.

Well, 'water can be soft; but never weak'. It IS the 'gentle and yielding' but it can define a mountain.

Think Obama does embody both aspects here. While deceptive in it's cultivation; his 'gentleman's posture is quite 'winning'. His 'will to power', however; cannot be underestimated.

Neither is he a Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, or what ever conservative president, he claims to be

It would appear that he cannot even “rise to the level” of Slick William Clinton.

It is very difficult to reason with people who spend most of their wages on medical treatment due to a lack of health insurance. I tell him he can work for McDonalds or Walmart and get insurance, but he prefers working for small business people who cannot offer insurance.

If the media ignores it, then for most people, it does not exist.

At the rate the MSM and newspapers are losing viewers and readers, they'll be lucky if they have any influence at all by 2010. Many polls are indicating that people--even liberals--are aware of media bias. The media is steadily losing clout and Obama's failures will play a role in furthering their decline.

A Weak President Fails to Respond to National Threats

Well, for crying out loud! If someone would march into the Oval Office, look under the desk and tell the boy-king to do something, maybe they'd get a response...

However I doubt that the steady flow of urine from under the desk will reassure anyone.

I honestly don’t think he will consider Russian bombers off our coast as threats. Neither will anyone in his administration and to be truthful they aren’t the threat they once were when we had missiles pointed at each other ready to go at a moments notice.
*****************
He will probably respond by saying:

“I’ll destroy my nukes if you destroy yours.”
We will then destroy our nukes and they will keep theirs and then nuke the heck out of the U.S. and take possession of the rubble.”

You could say the other shoe has dropped, albeit over 30 years later.

I don’t know; it’s not like Russian bombers on our doorstep are a bad thing, is it? Either Russia’s leaders want a war with us or they don’t. If they don’t, then a few bombers in the neighborhood won’t matter. If they do want a war, then there’s going to be a war. If those bombers have to fly all the way from Russia to the USA every time they carpetbomb a city, burning so much aviation fuel is going to generate a lot of CO2 and threaten our climate. Plus our defensive fighters are going to burn a whole lot of fuel meeting them far from home, leading to more CO2 pollution. By putting them close, where they can carpet bomb cities at will and with a minimal expenditure of fuel on both sides, the Russians are really protecting the planet. Maybe Gore has explained the facts of life (and death) to Obama, and our Dear Socialist Leader has decided that this is good.
