Europe is shriveling away and being replaced by a greater middle east. Why did Obama even bother to go to that wasted land?

All it need do is find/report on some major blemish in Hussein's background which, in turn, would convince the super-delegates that Hussein can't win. What major blemish? I sure there are many but the one I like is his senior thesis at Columbia. Why is he hiding it? Content? No, a thesis that argued that the US should surrender to the Soviets would certainly endear him to today's media, neocommunists and democrats. No, he is hiding his thesis for the only reason that is left; he plagiarized it, copied it from somebody else. Columbia and it's left wing faculty would NEVER have blown the whistle on an articulate affirmative action student and, today, would never help surface the wrongdoing. Honest NYC journalists would probably be able to prove or disprove this theory pretty quickly. The media still has time to crown Hilary.

You've got to be kidding! As far as I can tell politically, he's pretty much an old time Chicago politician telling the people exactly what they want to hear to get elected (and it changes with the crowd he's speaking to). That's old politics at its worst. He's a rank and file socialist with European anti-progressive ideas that have crippled the European economies. We may be in a slump, here, but it won't be long, because hopefully, if we can keep the socialist Democrats from raiding our wallets, the free market will solve the problems -- as it always has much more brilliantly than any government. BTW, speaking of socialism, I hear that France has lifted the restriction on a 35 hour work week. Another socialist entitlement offloaded. Isn't it amazing -- somebody has to work to pay the bills.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, nor would I insult you. Debate is good for the soul.

I want them to report the news, it seems that all of them have an axe to grind and take extreme delight in talking about each other. If I want silly bickering between rivals, I can get that at work.
