I think it funny watching "Mr Sunshine Pump" hang himself with all of the different positions that will be played side by side in Republican ads! 
No one dare crack a joke about the Messiah...
Personally, I think he is beginning to wear a little thin on a lot of people.

Chatting with Iran's "president" without preconditions doesn't bother you?
| This is just a matter of semantics. "Preconditions" means exactly what to you? He never said the guy could just drop in for a visit. Quote: |
Windfall taxes don't bother you?
| Depends on the context and how they might be applied and used. Quote: |
His lack of a plan doesn't bother you?
| Lack of a plan? He has more complete and detailed position papers than you have the time to read. Quote: |
The absence of anything on his resume to qualify him for the position of U.S. President doesn't bother you?
| Well, that is your conclusion, but what exactly does a presidential resume look like to you? Many have already pointed out other examples of great U.S. presidents who had lesser resumes.

The main, immediate goal he emphasized about nuclear weapons is that we need to prevent terrorists from getting access to them. And right now the easiest way for them to do so is probably from those the former U.S.S.R. developed and stockpiled. You think this is a bad idea? |

Wealth redistribution? The main, immediate goal here is to get rid of, or let expire, the tax cuts Bush introduced. The tax rates of the '90s worked quite well. Do you support a weak U.S. dollar, Bingo? Do you want it to tank even further than it already has? Because our current fiscal mess is partly to blame for that. So are you, because you supported this idiot now in office. |

In short, what I need to know about Obama (even though he has royally pissed me off lately) is that he is the only option we have to keep this country from continuing to pursue the failed policies of the most inept and embarrassing President this country has had in my lifetime.

Obama's plan is more government, which would just cancel out any additional taxes levied, unless he magically cleans up the bureaucracy, which I can't imagine, since - as we all know - he wants bigger government. So, in that case, he'd have to lower the quality of services to get us out of debt.
How about less taxes and less government? Simple idea that 90% of Americans would agree with. Quote:

considering that all of the income taxes levied BARELY pay for the national debts INTEREST....
leave it to the government to NOT issue it's own currency,as the constitution grants it... leaving that in the hands of the fed which is nothing more than a group of elitist rich bastards who want One World Order. |

Man, I don't want to know who you hang out with. A bunch of black supremacist, American-hating bigots? Or maybe someone like William Ayers who condoned the attacks of 9/11?
He's running for the highest office in the country, and at the moment, in the world. His contacts are supposed to be evaluated much more closely than a "regular" person.
I don't attend church because I don't believe in that stuff. Why, then, should we assume Obama didn't believe what Rev. Wright was preaching? It only makes sense that Obama agreed with him...otherwise, why attend the service? |
