well everyone is quick to judge Obama, well can you do a better job. Like the old saying goes. walk a mile in my shoe's. can you do better. we voted him and we should give him full support. Rome wasn't builded in a day. It took years to get in this shape and it will take years to get out. so wake up everyone and judge not. He has a heavy burden on his shoulder's. It was meant for him to be there, it was in god's plan,, so accept it. This country has push God aside, so now we are paying the price. I pray for this nation, and the people also .

Obama may be the president of the United States, but he is not the president of the American people. He claims to want to do so much for us. He won't even help his own brother.
All dictatorships have started out this way. Promise everything. Put everything in their hands. Give them complete control. Then one day you wake up and see that they do have COMPLETE CONTROL. You have given them our voice, our choice, our FREEDOM.

Regarding the president,s brother,I imagine that about this time he no longer live in a hut because ,Mr Obama, surely helped him...I hope.

Anne Ward states she hates racist talk, yet immediately mentions George Brown UK prime minister, racist comment-yes, so maybe you would do better before mentioning others name about you so called hatred of racist reamrks when you make them. As for Notaducke, about our NHS, yes we are in a mess because there are too many people allowed to milk the system for benefits not earned,and people coming into the UK soley for operations, or delivery of free childcare delivery, inc. from the USA. If you believe ALL you hear or see in the media then you very foolish person. I have stopped believing the press for years since I personally found lies and blown up out of proportion lies. Not everyone is a gullible and naive as they think. The whole world is in recession, not just yours or our countries, it is happening all over. The world is in a mess, and none of mankind can put what they have gradually destroyed for centuries, including the pollution of our air to breath. It cannot be called fresh anywhere anymore. So prayer for God's Kingdom to come, as mankind has had this world in their hands long enough and it has got us nowhere, we should of been a united planet by now, not still divided into bits, no matter what size those bits are. WE ARE ALL HUMANKIND, so at least let us be human to all, if it is humanly possible, not for some methinks.

Wake up, America!! Bush was NOT the cause of this horrible economy. American Greed was!! The head of Fanny and Freddie helped do us in. Bush wanted to investigate and put a cap on these people. Barney Frank and Poulsi said absolutely NOT. Our American Pope (Hussin Obama) is doing us in. He is making the American Dream the American Nightmare!! The NY Times should go out of business. They lie - Obama Hussin lies!! The Brotherhood (Muslims) are all over the place and the Pope is helping them. My G-d America - wake up!! How many times can you watch Jackson's funeral? Is that the average American mentality? Wow I'm scared!!

Well... Let me start by saying - remove the dust in your eye before removing someone else's dust. We all keep yelling and tripping over Obama administration. He barely got to the office. Why don't you all give him a chance and let see what he got. So far i think he is doing all good job. My advice for him is not to let himself be intimidated by anyone. He was chosen to be the president of United states. So also God chose him. He will help America .Trust me, he will. Why don't you keep your fingers cross?. As for his brother, that is a family issue. It should be solved personally, not on the media.

Living in a castle does not make you smart and wise. Living in a shack shows modesty
and tranquility unlike the fooled masses who are pursuing gold and silver at the expense
of moral values.

How I wish we had george w. bush back!!!obama says he "cares" about Americans. Yeah!!!!!why doesn't he care about his brother living on l.00 a month, he could surely send him a 10.00 a month. what a hypocrite!!!! Obama is only interested in destroying America, because everywhere he goes he talks bad about America!. Oh, by the way where are the 3-5 million jobs his stimulus package promised? By the way the democrats have been in power for the last two years and 7 months. so stop blaming Bush.

July 26, 2009, 01:00

Please stay focused on the issues at hand! Our economy is shot, and our people do not have jobs to feed themselves or their families. Healthcare is not the most important issue right now. Getting our economy back on track, and getting our citizens back into the workforce. I truly do not understand how we went from a surplus budget during the Clinton administration to becoming a nation deeply in debt to China! Did Bill Clinton blow smoke up the butts or did the Bush administration squander a lot of money? Obama is not the problem. He is the most intelligent president that this country has ever had. If any one should be impeached or go in front of a Congressional hearing it should be Clinton and George Bush! Look at the mess George Bush has made of the country. All he wanted to do was go into Iraq and kill Saddam. There were no weapons of mass destruction. His vendetta has put us deep into debt. I want to thank all of you rich republicans for voting for him and also for his clever disguise in stealing the election from Al Gore.

BO is very naive, thinking that the government can spend their way out of a recession. This won't happen! The more he spends, the bigger possibility that we will eventually have inflation. With this in mind we will not increase jobs, but decrease jobs. Fortunately, the American people will figure it all out and will probably be successful in making our future develop in a positive manner, regardless of BO's bad ideas. It's hard to hold Americans down. I am thinking positive, thinking that we will survive the BO administration. He certainly is not helping the bad situation or recession that we are under. He continues to do the wrong thing, spend money hand over fist!
Severe "inflation" is definitely going to happen. I recommend that we all buy gold and silver, think positive and we will survive the BO, Hilary and the pie in the sky democrats lunacy! I do believe that BO is serious about what he is doing, is an honest man, an intelligent man, but is more a naive professor than anything else. I would love to play basketball with him, but do not want him as our President. He is in office because of his intelligence, gift of gab, a great personality, and his opponent for Presidency was a wishy washy candidate who had very weak ideas. How John McCain became the Republican candidate for President is unexplainable.
I personally believe that BO has no responsibility for his wayward relatives, as he had nothing to do with the selection of them. They were given to him by God. He did not choose them. However he has chosen his friends and he is deeply responsible for them, and he hasn't done a good job in selecting his friends, such as William Aires and Jeramiah Wright, his minister for 20 years, others.

Give the bloke a chance before you start slating him. He has been in office for seven months, with difficult problems to solve. You all want it done in five minutes. So he makes a racist mistake and appears to take sides. He will learn from his errors. Do you really want GWB back, or some saint from heaven? Does it really matter where he was born or the colour of his skin? I cannot stand racist talk. How is he supposed to give a speech - he is eloquent and appears sincere. Perhaps you would Prime Minister Gordon Brown to come over to take over the post as honorary president? Then you would moan. Barack is American and he is American, so stop nitpicking.

July 25, 2009, 01:34

I think we have gone past these petty comments about my honorable president.Come on people ,when are we going to grow above playing this race card? If Obama is not a US citizen, who is? People come from other countries just to give birth to an American citizen and we have no problem with that? If his brother (are we even sure he is the brother) thinks he can become popular by castigating the president - dressing up like a crazy man and living in a shak, i believe he will have to remain like that till thy kingdom come unless he wants to come over here and live in one of the mens' shelters in NYC.Kenya is not the only place where poor people exist. There are plenty of them in the aus and other so called developed world. Okay can we move with our lives and talk about other things more important?

July 24, 2009, 23:25

I didn't vote for the man. He is single handily doing everything in his power to destroy this country.We are not even sure he's from this country. Why hasn't he shown a passport for all of his travels? What about a birth certificate? I question his ciitizenship.

July 20, 2009, 15:43

He is not my president! Obama and his political pushers are pushing his agendas down our mouths like it or not. Everywhere I go I find very few if any people agreeing with Obama. The power he has is very scary, if he want it he gets it, and our voices are left ignored. It is sad that the constitution that this country , my country, was founded on, is being stepped on and shreaded as it is. Our freedoms and liberties are being taken away one agenda at a time. There are some people that are blinded by the current political party, there are the unheard voices and then there are the ignored voices such as mine. People, there is an agenda and you need to look up " The Obama Deception". If you believe in America this might wake you up. I love my country! If you love it too then Pray for the USA and its leaders then "TRUST IN GOD" and be ready for the second coming.

We do not know the situation with him and his family everyone is guessing he choses to not help him but we do not know the truth he is a kind and sincere man and judging him based on a reporters story is crazy.

I see many opposing opinions on this interesting thread which escalated so quickly from the brother living in the hut to the frantic feelings that many of us have. Interesting! I am a conservative--NOT a republican, a socialist, a communist. We are in trouble with our half-white president. Tension between the races is growing; a white American cannot have an opposing view point without being accused of racisim. It's great for all of you who are so in love and so blinded to the truth due to your frustrations with the previous administration. All presidents inherit from the previous administration but not all presidents have spent the type of money that BO has in such a short period of time. BO and his administration use the inherit phrase far too often and all the supporters fall for it. You cannot continue to blame Bush for everything that goes wrong under BO. Bush made plenty of mistakes and did a lot of damage in other ways but this country had freedom and protection under him. We now are on the path to socialism and when it arrives, all of the foolish lovers of BO will be so shocked at how our lives will change. Read about socialism in other countries. Do not think that your life will be better or finer. The BO administration, senators and congress will be just fine. We will not. Why don't you do some real accurate research about who has spent what for for what reasons. Go back 50or60 years, not just 10. Get your hands on the stimulas bill and see the 8000+ earmarks that BO swore would not be included; see how many are for foolish reasons that have nothing to do with getting our country out of the so-called recession. I am tired of his lectures for what we should do while he pops about with that stupid grin on his face, having a good time on our tax money, telling us to tighten our belts. Good luck voters--we will need it.

It's unfortunate that they are half blood brothers and do not know each other. He said their meeting was "cool". Obama may assume his brother wants something from him although he should still help him out in some way. Keep in mind he never knew him, just of him. Some people have instant love and some don't in families such as this one. President Obama may harbor some emotional pain towards that side of his family. Obviously his poor brother probably never reached out to him from Kenya all these years, so why now? I still think he can help him in some magnitude. People can tend to be prideful and or arrogant.

July 17, 2009, 11:47

well,this is something we got to deal with,he is the president and nothing no one can do about it,he is there for not even 6 months what in the world you want him to do.we dont say much about other past poresidents ,why OBAMA, I guess personal issues ,but you got a problem you freaking deal with it. Bush was a president at a time what did you say? clinton was there at a point in time, what did you say?depression,recession has been there before president OBAMA came in,so what?HATERS TOO LATE .

July 16, 2009, 02:44

Don't we think it's too premature to judge Obama at this time.This is America, Election is conducted every four years to determine if a president is worth continuing his job. So let us all throw our weight behind him for success so America can still be the same country it used to be.
