#1 We have a president who doesnt get America. For the first time in history we have a president whose default setting is in opposition to the general sensibilities of the American people.

Maybe. But let's not forget who put him there.

#2 The indications and warnings were all there, they were just ignored due to political correctness and the headlong plunge to elect a non-white POTUS. Barry is what he always was, nothing more.

#3 Barry is what he always was, nothing more.

Nope. Being elected POTUS drove him around the bend. Now he believes himself a GodKing.

#6 Yes, largely a product of a Party Press and the state sponsored religion of Socialism. That's why they so desperately want to kill this internet media. They finally were able to exploit the American character of 'wanting to be left alone' rather than bother with the mud pit of politics along with the streak of perfection demanded in one's own candidates by the other side.

#8 I was smart enough not to vote for him, but my absentee ballot was thrown out because of a petition by a Democratic lawyer, because I hadn't lived in Missouri in awhile, and at the time, I was in the hospital, and couldn't do anything about it.
I'm to the point that I might vote against ALL incumbents. This crap has to stop. Now.

#9 Goodluck
If it was Bush the press would say "Bush fails to swim".

#10 The weirdest thing about the Barry flameout is the notion that this man is exceptionally intelligent. Go back and scrutinize many of his speeches and his extemporaneous remarks, and you'll find instance after instance of appalling ignorance and obtuseness.

"A united world defeated communism."

Zionism was a product of the holocaust.

Stocks are valued using the "profits-to-earnings" ratio.

American surgeons routinely amputate the limbs of their diabetic patients so that the docs can collect $50,000 fees-for-service instead of a $1,000 fee for treating diabetes.

#11 There is also a strong streak of totalitarianism in BHO. BHO would be a dictator in another culture; here if allowed. Sometimes he displays his ignorance and naivete most when he speaks "off-the-cuff." He was packaged and primed by his handlers prior to the election and programmed and scripted after the election. He knows little true humility and is arrogant. He seems to be mesmerized by the sound of his own voice and image. BO is deceptive in his speech. He like others before him tell people what they want to hear. There are many people in our country who will continue to be duped by him and will vote for him again. They are vested in him for one reason or another. However, there are many people who have quit listening to the poetry, rhetoric, and deception in his speeches and have abandoned his cause. All the talk of hope and change was a charade and hoax. They see things for what they are. They realize they made a huge mistake that has had a very detrimental and destructive effect on the country, our children and future generations of children. We can never get out of debt. Our children can never get out of debt. Slavery has become institutionalized by the government through debtedness and lack of jobs. There is still a chance to get out from under this in November '10 and '12.
