4. It's the governing he seems to be having trouble with
Y'know, that bit about "by the people, for the people"

Hmm, I don't see the term "corporation" in that phrase

5. oh c'mon!
the USA IS a corporation. It's hard to be a president in a large corporation! Congress needs to change the rules so that corps are curtailed.

10. I'm not giving congress a pass in this -- they are as much in bed with the corps as Obama is
I'd like to see a little leadership focused on the American people and not USA, Inc.'s profits going to the usual suspects

6. No, it seems that he has trouble being a dictator in a democracy.
I think that difficulty speaks well of him, actually.

22. Or endless warmongering and blowback after sending our KILLER DRONES to conduct
Edited on Sun Jan-17-10 05:43 PM by ShortnFiery
MURDER on these tin pot dictators' political enemies. But Oh, we'll call them all "Taliban" so that will cover up the senseless EXECUTIONS without charges nor trials.

Congrats, the USA is the biggest terrorist nation in the world ... but but but we have a really thoughtful and soft-spoken SPEECH MAKER figure-head deemed to be "our president."

But he doesn't RUN anything akin to his rhetoric. :crazy:

26. Yawn.
Then why don't you run for president them since you think the job is so easy, instead of doing nothing but whining?

24. Yes, sending our killer drones to MURDER people without charges or trial.
That's something to be so proud of. Helping the country on Haiti on one hand, and bombing the shit out of "personal enemies" of our ruling thugs on the other. Yeah, let's go bomb people all over the middle east? It's not LEGAL.

Thanks President Obama - the Entire Middle East HATES OUR GUTS! :crazy:

21. It's wearing thin on many of us. TALK is cheap. We need action that benefits average Americans ...
not the bloated corporations on Wall Street and within the MIC ... promoting ENDLESS WAR in action. :thumbsdown:

25. Blah, blah, blah...
People who do nothing but pound on their keyboards complain are wearing thin, too. Why don't people like you run for political office then, instead of just constantly complaining? Talk is cheap, remember?

27. Blah Blah yourself. The Blowback from all the innocents we are killing in the ME will
come back to us. And ask yourself? IF it's OK to KILL people who haven't even been charged, how soon can it come to OUR OWN COUNTRY?

People should be getting fired up about this or those DRONES will soon be used against AMERICANS.

The EVIL that our MIC does to foreigners will come back to US exponentially.

It's beyond KARMA, it's a fact of nature.

And you wish BAD KARMA on us as your revenge.

There are ways for you to join the Jihad, you know.
I'm sure that they are looking for big mouth white folks
as we speak!
