Anyone that is posting comments about Obama being black or (half black) as being the reason why he is being criticized has got to be an uninformed fool! This is not 1960 people! White liberals put this man in office, hello! People that make comments like that convince the rest of us that they are completely detached from what this administration is doing right in front of their very eyes. Do us a favor, put the race card away (again) and get informed! Are you not paying attention to what is happening? - of course not, because if you were you wouldn't be making race comments. The Bush administration left Obama with a recession. The Obama administration is flying the plane straight into the ground - CRASH! Get your head out of the sand and try to get past the fact that this guy is not white, pay attention to what this liberal, socialist, administration is doing to the country. 99% of the people that I know couldn't care less about the color of this guys skin - that doesn't have a damn thing to do with whether or not you can do the job right - just do the right thing! And higher taxes, big government and socialism is not the right thing! Educate yourself on history - these things DO NOT WORK! Ramming a so called stimulus bill through before anyone can read it and setting record deficit numbers equals a one term presidancy! That bill isn't creating jobs, but of course you would know that if you took time to educate yourself on the facts and stop acting like a damn heard of sheep! I like the man, he has an exquisit gift of shoveling BS into the minds of the sheeple, but his neativity, inexperience, policies and adgena are gauranteed to make a bad situation much worse so get ready for it people! We have had some good and capable presidents that helped make us the best country in the world and we have had some incompetent presidents that were clueless as how to do the job. Obama will go down in history as the first non-white president but he will make the Jimmy Carter adminstration look like they had half of a clue. Don't let the smooth taste fool ya - more than it already has.
I never have, and never will believe that Obama is qualified to be president. I don't agree with his policies either. He is denying the fact that this country was built on christian principles, and so are most of the democrats. (Republicans too) The Kennedy family had a lot to do with Hilliary losing the nomination. Ted Kennedy, who coulc'nt pass his exam for spanish and got kicked out of Harvard..ended up safely working in Europe for NATO, came out of the service a PFC. Drove off a bridge takeing a woman home alone???? Did not report it for hours??? He's a senator? Him and his gang had it in for the Clinton's, and they ruined the nomination for Hillary..Kennedy, Kerry, and some of the others. .The democrats were running congress, that's the biggest reason this country is in such a mess. Obama is getting us in a bigger mess every day...with bad decisions, terrible judgement....God help us...
President Obama was elected on CHANGE, he told the country time has come for CHANGE. I don't think those who voted for him and elected hem had any idea of what he had in mind in mind for CHANGE. We've seen change in these last six months. The Obama Administration has managed to nationalize General Motors (Government Motors) and of course we've seen the nationalization of the banking industry. We're now seeing the price of gasoline on the raise again, WHY? Does that mean we're having a boom in the economy, or has the present adiminstration added a tax to the price without telling the AMERICAN PEOPLE so we can pay for the BAILOUT PROGRAMS and the STIMULUS PACKAGE. Tell me how is the STIMULUS PACKAGE doing, has it even been got off the ground. How many people are still losing their homes, because of the failed mortgage system this country had in place. How many people are on the street without a roof over heir heads or food to eat. Is the STIMULUS PACKAGE or the BAILOUT PROGRAMS making it possible for them to have nutritious meal and a shelter to stay in? Lets talk about THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS. Why has it become so expensive to by ammunition and why do we have a shortage of it in our sporting stores/departments? GUN CONTROL that is what has happened, has the government put down so many restrictions and created new taxes on ammunition that it isn't available anymore. This PRESIDENT has told other nations that we as AMERICANS are ARROGANT, maybe he should take time to visit the cemeteries in EUROPE and other COUNTRIES, where our FALLEN HEROS are buried. Now we have The Secretary of State touring the countries of Latin America and indicating we're a socialist country and we are in step with them. Secretary Clinton in my opinion is wrong in what she is relaying to these countries. I also believe she'll be the first or among the first of the rats to jump ship when reality hits and she'll be President Obama's biggest critic.
Since when does color have anything to do with ability? I would not care if he was green as long as he knew what he was doing, which he does not. I thought the idea was to run the country FOR the people, seems to me that the wishes of the people are being ignored. All of these polls that are being taken are a small biased section of the country, almost everyone that I personally know or have talked to did not vote for the man, so if even a percentage of that be true across the country, how did he get in office? I would really like to know. I have never seen such a disaster in all my voting years
I would like to know where Obama is going to get the money to pay us back? Maybe he thinks California will come-up with it. All he is doing is creating more welfare junkies.
Everybody knew that at one time or other some of the hardliners will come up with a blame or two for Obama. With only such few days at the helm he is already a source of scorn. Some people could be excused for thinking that all those who speak so ill of the current President of United States of America are blinded by racial prejudices. It is very shameful that all the ills of the past administration are now coming to light after those who caused it have left the office. Guantanamo, Iraq, Afghanistan and all needs cleaning and that has been left for Obama to do against a background of a few misguided zealots who are blind enough to see further than their nose.
I want to say that the President is no doing the american people any good he is selling us out and cares nothing for the American people. He should not be president and I don't no what the congressmand and senetors are thinging they are doing the same thing give money to car dealerships and investment groups and sending all our job over sea to other countries instead of have work here . They are selling us out . They just gave them all big rasises and then say medicare is going to be broke in 2017 and s.s. will be broke in 2020 Why because they stole the money for them selves. They only care about them selfves and not the American people who work to pay for all their parties and trips and insurance and retirment while we get very little to live on.Then the president give money and is allowing more people that hate all Americans to come here and get s.s. and aide to set up business and pay no taxes for 5 to 7 years . How come we are not able to do the same. Our insurance on medicare for rx has donut hold in it so we have to pay full price for our medicaation until we pay 4033.50 and then they will pay again,but living on medicare you can't afford to pay for these med at that price . Again senete and congress don't have this kind of insurance. do they. and don't retired with what we get. Lots of people have lost there retirement that they paid into because company used it and can't pay them.We are beging sould out big time .
It is amazing that this president's wife has said that one day we all be working for her husband. . .how close are we. . .OBama just cut 40 million in advertising spend for Chrysler. when does a pres. have this power. . he wants to the banks to bow to him as lord giver of the pennies. . Look what he did to GM...your hydrogen engine is off limits. how does this bone head get this power where is congress???? Carbon tax the hell out of us so we can have midget cars with batteries. these are just a few things this man has gotten away with. . .we need tea parties and then change out the congress and the president before we have nothing left.
Be fair, give the man a chance. why prejudge him, is it because he is BLACK? Examine your conscience, come out of the dark ages, we are all human beings, with the will to survive, and the world is becoming smaller and smaller. Grow up, and learn to think and behave as a civilized person?
Does no one else find it funny that these guys posted an ad with "Clinton thrashes Obama" and bring us to this link to last year???
The comments here are priceless! I'm curious as to what impeachable crimes you people think Obama is guilty of... ...mainly that the copy of his birth certificate wasn't shiny enough, or something? I certainly have a beef or three with the Obama administration, but those are almost exclusively in areas where he is embracing the BUSH model of government.
The fact is, America has soiled it's reputation across the globe, allowed greedy bankers and politicians to destroy the economy, instituted torture regimes, warrentless spying on it's own citizens, a vanity war in Iraq based on lies, and an increase all over the planet in extremism and terrorist violence. What exactly do you expect Obama to do in his first 100 days to fix all of that? He is moving slowy in the right direction in many areas, and is behaving pathetically Republican in others... ...it's going to take some time, people.
Luckily, looking at the stated age of our commenters here, you will all be dead and buried soon, and the rest of us can get to work with the slow process of fixing the damage your generation has left us.
Why do people forget why Allen Keyes[A GREAT AMERICAN] would not congradulate Obama after he defeated Allen for senator. ALLEN said he wasn't going to congradulate anyone that was out to destroy his country, it seems that the GOP and conservative talk radio and T.V. HAS ABANDONED Allen. I have never heard him talk without praising God.It seems that Allen Keyes was on top of what Obama was up to before anyone else.
I think most of you are paying too much attention to media reports. Turn off FOX. It is a little too early to judge the Obama Presidency, but overall I think he is doing just fine. Certainly better than his predecessor. Of course, ANYONE would be better than that.
We are in a very big mess, but at long last, I begin to believe there are changes being made that will ultimately straighten out this great nation. The course has been wrong for the past eight years. As a fast-food society, expectations are that everything should be turned around instantaneously. Lots of dues to be paid, lessons to be learned, and yes, unfortunately, more pain ahead.
Learn the facts and study some history before you knock anyone who points a finger of blame of this country. Good Lord, we are so guilty of so many bad acts affecting the world situation.
I was a Hillary gal because I believe in her abilities, and was concerned that Obama did not have the experience to grapple with the intense issues. So far, his actions have eased my anxieties.
Bush made mistakes but he kept this country safe and never bowed down to any country. Plenty of hate messages have been posted, as well as CNN, MSNBS, ABC, NBC, and CBS blaming Bush for everything up to date as a matter of fact. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.....BUSH IS GONE, OBAMA IS IN AND WE ARE IN FOR ONE HELLUVA RIDE. The only positive thing he has done was today when he announced he is going after people who have money off shore. Other than that what has he improved since he has been in office? Nada. The only thing I get from Vernay's comments is racism. I don't care if someone is purple, if they are a good candidate, I vote for them. Color does not come into the picture. It just so happens a community organizer with 147 days of Senate experience won the election......so, no I didn't vote for him. He didn't and doesn't have the experice to run this country.........and he has surrounded himself with a bunch of Chicago thugs.
That is going to be the excuse of the democrat/blaming bush for what is coming in this term/think obama is anti-american/ of course if you do not agree with democrat/they said is racism/ I THINK HE IS A AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PRESIDENT/he is there because he was selected not elected/no one knew of obama 4 years ago/ I trust him as far as can throw him/ THIS IS NOT ABOUT BLACK OR WHITE/ this is about a man who has never done anything /all he know how to do is speeches I think he still running for president.,can wait for this 4 years are over/and we still be in one piece/
ok vernay, race has nothing to do with anything!! this hero of yours will destroy this country as we know it and we are in for one hell of a ride for the next four years,. he doesnt care about the US or the people in it. once a muslim always a muslim . if he doesnt close the borders we are really in for it and anyone with a brain can see what he is doing . and furthermore, read revelations in your bible and that should give you a hint as to who this bird is!! thats all im saying about that. mare
I, for one happen to think that our President, Barack Obama is doing a great job of undoing the mess that Dubya left behind for the entire country. And those who are having hissy fits and stating that its' not a race issue are showing how racist they really are by the posts they are putting on this board. President Obama has only been in office a little over 100 days and there are those who are blaming him for the Bush mess. Learn to live with it folks, the Repugnuts lost, so get over it.Why weren't these hate messages posted when Bush was screwing you over?????????
Will you please go to school and learn how to speak and write? It is ignorance such as yours that allowed this to happen. This has nothing to do with race, and quite frankly, we have ALL had about enough of destructive black racism and political correctness that you attempt to practice. Anyone with a sparrow's IQ can see that we are in ten times more trouble since Obama came on the scene, and YES, he caused it. Oh, he is doing a good job alright, if his goal is to destroy America for now and for generations to come. Also, when you go back to school, do some reading about Franklin Raines at Freddie Mac, basically the man at ground zero of the credit crisis, and one of the men who caused it. He is a very, very wealthy man now, I might add. Do some reading, and then come back and tell us that this is a "white" problem. And furthermore, if we adopt your type of thinking (using the word loosely), then it is very clear that our economy was in great shape until 2006 when the Democrats won the elections and took over congress. Everything crashed since then, and the problems have multiplied and gotten worse since Obama was elected. Yes, things were great when the Republicans ran congress and Obama was not yet allowed to screw things up. (See how it works Vernay?)
