		<description>VDH:
I guess you could argue that Jimmy Carter came to his senses somewhat after Breshnev and the Kremlin opted to invade Afghanistan.  At least he beefed up military spending and boycotted the Olympics in Moscow...  Yet there&#039;s something even more messianic about Obama&#039;s narcissism (heck, call it megalomania) than even Carter&#039;s born-again beatitudes...  Here&#039;s how I foresee Obama would react to another major Al Qaeda attack on America (say, for example, a dozen simultaneous releases of massive amounts of anthrax in towns and cities across the country):  1) Declare martial law; 2) Send the National Guard to close off the southern border completely; 3) Shut down dissident and critical media outlets; 4) Arrest, if necessary, key figures in any protest movement; 5) Declare the need for an emergency federal police force and appoint a czar to recruit Acorn members and their ilk to make up that force...  Etcetera...  In short, seal off our own country and dis-empower those figures and forces that will be blamed in show trials for inciting the violence of our enemies against us in the first place!  Extreme?  No doubt.  Unlikely?  The way things have gone so far here in Obama-land, I&#039;m not ruling anything out, especially if the economy is already in dire jeopardy when the sneak attack comes...  Then he will need scapegoats, distractions, a new crisis ripe for exploitation, a crying need to suspend the constitution and play at being Lincoln for the sake of posterity...  And as we are thus distracted, dispirited, and disorganized, our mortal enemies overseas will coordinate the nuclear missile attacks that will put paid to the American century, clearing the future for Islam and China to rule and reign supreme...</description>

		<description>261. James Pearson:

Man, you guys are bitter. But good on the prof, hope he sells (you) a book. Obamas doing okay (and you know it but you can’t admit it), and the sooner you get rid of that growing chip the better. GET OVER IT! GO AND DO SOMETHING REAL WITH YOUR WHINNY LITTLE SOULS.
He’s YOUR president for GOD sake, support him because you know what GOD says about those with a rebellious nature.

One last point that you ALL wont acknowledge. The President inherited this mess from your flee brain idol.

I wish him well.

Lets all get back to work and do our part to get our ship righted. Or would you rather sit on blogs like this and whine about what??? ah yes I thought as much.

Excuse me the man thinks he is king. Have you had your head in the sand. Car dealerships are being closed at break neck speeds at his order. Please show me where in the constitution it says that he is empowered to take these actions. (ie: banks, auto manufactures, Bowing to kings) 

I respect the office not the man. The only difference between Carter and Bam-Bam is Carter truly Loved this country even though he was a screw up Obam-Bam hates every thing we stand for. How dare he suggest that we overreacted after the towers fell.

I believe we did not do enough fast enough. 
congress needs to wake up, get out of the private sector and let it take care of itself, and let our troops do their job with out fear of being charged criminally for doing that job.

Bam-Bam also needs to stop giving the terrorist prisoners rights under the Geneva convention. It clearly states a combatant will be identifiable by a recognized uniform and if he or she is not in said uniform they should be shot not held. This is a rule of war agreed to by the nations of the world.

Please do not ask me to stand behind anything this Communist is doing. Yes he is my pres., but that&#039;s the nice thing about living in this great country, we get to disagree with each other and our Gov.

Semper Fi.</description>

		<description>#253.  I can&#039;t make a good argument against some of your points, but as Israel smolders, Tehran will become a cloud of rubble.  As for Obambi - I agree.</description>

		<description>No, I disagree.  

You give Obama too much credit.  You were at your core a better man than he is when the lesson you describe was applied.  

What sort of man sits through 20 years of Reverend Wright without comment?  Could YOU have done that without a projectile-vomit epiphany?  I think not.  

Obama is damaged goods, a typical politician; when cornered he will spin, deny, get angry, and blame, but he won&#039;t grow into manhood or into the office of President.  He just doesn&#039;t have it in him.  He&#039;s not an axe-murderer, but neither is he worth a warm pitcher of spit--and he never will be.

You&#039;re still a Democrat at heart, aren&#039;t you old boy: you&#039;ve just GOT to think the best of everyone, despite a Toughlove world view. You&#039;re just like my grandmother, another inveterate Democrat.</description>
