#1 All that Zero ever thinks is how the levers of power can reward his friends, who in the future, will reward him (the Chicago Way), and how every decision is view through the prism of his personal prestige, power and reelection. Any decision that does not first meet those criteria, even if it is good for the American people, is avoided whenever possible. Voting Present (inaction) is always better than no, which might have a downside for him. The pipeline from Canada to the Gulf refineries is a perfect example. Postpone iuntil 2013 for "environment considerations". What a gutless, venal, stupid, ignoble POS the naive American people have put in their highest office. This man is a stain on the Presidency.

#2 So far as I can tell, Obama has no interest in America or its people.

I'd say a profound interest---in punishing their rejection of him.

#4 If you believe Iran can be 'contained', then there is no reason to actively do anything. Quite a convenient belief actually.

#5 The only containing of Iran that would occur would be a nuke in an ISO container at either Long Beach, Newark or Andover.

We're going to have a nasty terrorist act sometime before the election and and I hope and pray his political correctness, naivety, and blissful ignorance of the situation is not shared by those in the shadows who protect us.

#6 g(r)om, I think BHO is still in total denial about America's rejection of him and his policies. This is just who he is. God help us when he figures out what's really going on, and gets punitive.

#7 ARAB/MUSLIM SPRINGS > USA = ISRAEL = being surrounded like Custer at the Little Big Horn. ala soon-to-be-Nuclear Radical Islam.

1960's GUAM TAOTAMONAS = "YOU ARE THERE" wid
> Mitch Bouyer + a young Custer Scout named "Curly".
> "CALHOUN'S COMMAND".
> The Stand = Desperate Battle at the DEEP RAVINE = "LOST COMPANY".

NOSTRADAMUS = "Until the SEVEN/SEVENTH holds the Line".

#8 How may American + WOrld History be altered, + by extension American-specific "Manifest Destiny", iff the Battle of the LBH did NOT occur + certain influential circles in Washington, DC had succeeded in setting up sovereign tribal homelands = Countries for various Indian tribes in CONUS.

Ditto for CANADA???

THE MODERN MAP OF CONUS-NORAM[CANUS] WOULD LOOK FAR DIFFERENT THAN IT DOES TODAY.

And thusly, Virgina, we learn once again "DECISIVE/HEAVENLY BATTLE" is called or labeled as such.
