Always Right:

Got plans for the weekend?

Change em’.

Visit your local Borders and pick up a copy of “Obama Nation,” one week away from topping the New York Times best seller list. It’s a riveting expose that traces Barack Osama’s journey from child to Chicago left wing extremist to Presidential nominee of the Democratic Party.

Now I am convinced ‘Rachel Peepers’ is a Rovian plant. Either that or ’she’ is a Swidish fembot.

I’m afraid I wasn’t clear about Senator Obamas plan to eliminate all nuclear weapons. In his book he states that the United States should set an example for the rest of the world by unilaterally destroying their stockpile of weapons. Which Republicans may see as opening us to attack or nuclear intimidation or even mass destruction, or worse, but Obama sees it at the first step in ridding the entire world of weapons of mass destruction. This is one example of the change Obama is talking about. The U.S. not only will talk the talk, but walk the walk. And Senator Obama has enough confidence in the intrinsic goodness of people, governments, and pseudo terrorists everywhere that their sense of fairness, honesty and evenhandedness will prevent them from attacking an unarmed, trusting, goodhearted America. Obama says it’s time for America to lead in the most important endeavors of the day. If it doesn’t work out, so be it. But this is the kind of change we can all believe in.

“I also want to add that there are many outsiders who really want McCain to win and it is not because of racism but because they want America to continue on the path it is on and self destruct like Rome.”

Don’t read much history, do you? Rome DID NOT self-destruct. It was beaten on the field of battle by enemies with superior technology.

In two weeks we will have the 1630th anniversary of that battle. In 1630 years, the start of military action against Iran will be celebrated (by historians) as the turning point in the GWoT.
PRESIDENT Bush will still be remembered as one of America’s greatest Presidents. Ohhhhh……BAAAMA won’t even be a trivia question.

George Santayana, The Life of Reason, Volume 1, 1905

America is admired and respected all across the globe. By all except a few dictators who fear the USA and a small but vocal group of Western socialists.

Leonard,

Oh, but these comments are from real live Americans. If you want to talk to the ones who agree with you, may I recommend the left side of the blogosphere? Here for the most part you’ll find old fashioned American patriots, who love their country more than the “world”. Obama clearly feels otherwise, which is why I will never acknowledge him as President of the United States even though the fortunes of politics will likely put him in the White House in a few months.

i’m afraid nuclear weapons, like rock&roll are here to stay. b.o. can talk a good line of bulls%&t as long as someone writes it for him and displays it for him to read, this is only window dressing. he should stick to the real democrat issue of getting votes anywhere they can. by using illegal immigrants, or trying to have european citizens submit write in ballots. this nation will never be the same after the one world order lowers the U.S. to a third world country. let’s leave some of these walls stand!!

After having read many comments, I have decided to post my mine. I am doing so because I love America. I think It is time for the republicans to use common sense, to look back at the world history at different level( individual, national, and international) and tell me that we have a better option than the one that Obama has. Of course, there may be a better one, of course Obamas’ one may not be perfect. However, he seems to be not only the salvation of the U.S., but also, the salvation of the world. I don’t have nothing against Mc Cain, If he sounded better than Obama, by offering the U.S. and the world safer, healthier and more prosperous future; I would be after him. what counts now for all Americans, is a safe future. The threat that America is facing is not a game. It is extremly dangereous. How can America win when it is acting alone, and mainly by creating more ennemies by being to arrogant, or by cooling down the will of its allieds to deeply involve in this quest. Anyway, I still do not beleive that those comments are from the American people.

Rachel, your irony is kind of funny.
But just remember that reducing nuclear weapons is not anything particular democratic, nor communist. Indeed, of the most popular republican presidents ever (known for his communist hatred, mind you) had that very same goal. And it is republican presidents who secured the significant arms reduction treaties during the cold war.

So taking on Obama for wanting to reduce nuclear weapons seems to be kind of, ehhh, unhistorical for a republican.
