Now Obama is trying to change the pledge of allegiance, see:

I knew this was going to happen. Can the people who verified he was a natural born citizen be tried for treason now?

Everyone knows, including his own liberal establishment, that Obama is only about self and votes for his party in 2012. He doesn’t care about democracy and making lives better for those poor, terrorized, disenfranchised, disadvantaged people outside of the 50 (57?) states. Remember, he didn’t even care about his own people in Chicago’s South Side.

And now, he’ll do anything for the conservative and evangelical vote — look, he’s even putting his hand over his heart during the playing of the National Anthem and wearing the US flag on his lapel. But we all know the truth: he’s just doing that to fool y’all into thinking he’s changed. Unfortunately, Obama’s spots are huge and will always come out to show his true colors.

OBAMA : when it comes to Middle East matters “all too often the United States starts by {Dictating}

Obama gives first TV interview to Arabic network

{{{{{{{{WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama gave his first formal television interview as president to an Arabic cable TV network, telling Al-Arabiya that when it comes to Middle East matters “all

too often the United States starts by dictating.”}}}}}}}}}}}}

And we all though Jimmy Carter screwed the Middle East up .
Obama just out did Jimmy Carter winning by a Mile .

Mr President ..Pssssssssstttt We are the only Supper Power in the World .

This man needs help . Word matter : Now lets see the Media spin that insane statement in a positive way with that was a very smart statement .
But it tells us what Obama really thinks about America without any question ….
He Obviously sees and deeply Believes America as do College students and the left
is are Imperialist , Bullies who need to be put in our place and he scolded us thought a Middle east net work that hates America .

One can only imagine what that totally “Moronic Statement ” and the Cheering that brought The “Media ” in the Middle East ,UN , Europe , America ,Anti American left ,Code Pink , Russia , Cuba , Hugo Chevez , N Korea , China , Iran , College Class rooms ,The Egyptian Brother Hood , Hamas’ , Hesbollah , Fatah
Al Quada , Bin Laden and even Saddam from his grave .

And of course the great despair it will bring America in dealing with other Nations that want American and Israeli Blood on the streets .
In basic # 101 negotiations training . You don’t start with ..We are Wrong ( Dictating “meaning Bully ” in Liberal terms . And what can we do you can help us “change “. We are all ears ?
One suspects those few words will haunt Obama but sadly America as well for years to come .
Ronald Reagan and our Founding Fathers must be sad in their own graves of honor .

Repack and gizmo,

As a recently retired E-7, having served 24 years in the All Volunteer Army, I am disgusted with your cheap attempt to use the “chicken hawk” arguement in order to try and shut people up. This arguement is as stupid as the one where being a fighter pilot is the same as dodging the draft.

Many of our Nations founders never served in the Continental Army, either, but their ideas about individual liberty, fighting for freedom are just as right today as they were back then. Were they “chickenhawks” too?

I beleive in helping others to be free and I’ve put my butt on the line for it. I appreciate that others who don’t serve recognise the importance of freedom to the human spirit and support me, unlike you who have served but don’t care why.

62. bit:

Why is it the US’s responsibility to take care of Europe? All of the money and lives that the US has lost defending Europe goes without a thanks….nothing but being asked to do more. Let your military defend you since your nation is so much better than ours!

You must have the wrong information on conservatives in the United States, we are not the same as conservatives in Europe.

Cedarford—Do you recommend isolationism? Where we take care of our people and our land and to heck with the rest of them. Let the EU be overran by Islamic terrorist, let Israel be innihilated, let the people of other nations be murdered by their dictators while the dictators live a life of luxury (Saddam)?

my #67 applies to the whole post to begin with, it was an attempt at humor but I guess it went over your little head.

#72 I didn’t mean to say that Islam is the only drawback to democracy, only that many of the failures are religion based. Northeast Africa has most of its problems caused by Islamic culture (Sudan, Somalia, Etheopia, etc), however, most of the other “black” nations have similar cultural roadblocks to succesful democracy placed by old tribal religions.
Pakistan and Indonesisa are hanging on by a thread only because of a few strong leaders that so far have held it together. Trukey is a exception, based largely on it’s success in keeping “church and state” seperate, time will tell.
Russia has a different situation. Although they have tried for almost a hundred years to deny any religion, there is still a strong undercurrent of several religions that are at odds with each other and and like Venezuela, a few politically power hungry individuals have taken every advantage of it that they can.

Northstar:
Notice where democracy has “stuck” and where it has not. The common thread is religion. The countries that have stuck with it are, for the most part, either Judao-Christian or Hindu. The mid-east and asian “stans” are Islamic. The greartest drawback of accepting anything new is the human weakness called “religion”. Case in point, compare the cooperation of the international scientific community, which places a lot less emphesis on religion, to the human rights beliefs in the same countries.

Not entirely true. Most black Christian nations that started out democratic at independence, many with the same legal structures and parallel constitutions to France’s, the UKs, even the US Constitution – soon failed or are in the process of reaching “failed”.

And many white nations in the “judeo-christian” tradition, headed by Russia, but including Venezuela, Moldava, Nicaragua recently have backslid after finding democracy failed to work well..And, of course, the historical list of white nations in which democracy “blew it” and was replaced by authoritarian or communist rule is long.

Nor are all nations outside “judeo-christian” or “hindu” traditions excluded from being stable democracies. Japan – and more recently Singapore, Bangladesh, S Korea, Philippines, even Indonesia are presently democracies.

We can also add that Pakistan, Iran, and Turkey are quasi-democracies – where democracy is well-established as desired by most the people, and practiced…But fragile, and tempered by Mullahs in the case of Iran or the military in the case of the other two usurping the will of the people on key points.

But, if we are honest, we would admit that the will of the People is also frequently usurped in Europe by unaccountable EU ministers, in Israel by judges and lawyers (substituting as secular Mullahs of the Jews).

And in the USA, our democracy is frequently usurped by courts and by an unaccountable Jewish-Gentile Ruling Elite determined to shove Free Trade, Open Borders, Wall Street machinations, abortion, PC, ruinous anti-AGW actions, an ever-growing government, uncontrolled debt – on the American masses no matter how the “little people” vote. In many ways, our democracy is now similar to Irans. The people vote and if the Ruling Elites or Mullahs agree, the peoples will prevails. If they disagree, well, the people of Iran or the USA are out of luck. We and the Iranians effectively have democracies subject to veto by powerful, unelected forces.
