Oh look, another Obama thread.

I think I'd take this seriously if it didn't come from a Murdoch media organ or other wacky media source.

Yea we got tired of the Bush threads

I was going to post a thread yesterday about Carter.

What the hell is up with him lately he has been in the news on a number of occasions in the last few weeks.

Yesterday he (Carter) claimed that he was far superior to other presidents when it came to foreigen affairs and such.

You know what Mookie..at the end of the day I think Obama will take the next election anyway. I believe you will see him become as dynamic as he ever was in the 2008 elections. He still has that ability to mobilize people. Proof was in the pudding back in 2008.

Yes, ice crossing. I believe it established that humans/animals did migrate from region to region via this ice bridge. So then, I guess the US really belongs to.....the Russians!!!

But that's only true if you define "Americans" as denizens of the American continents. Commonly and (I think) in this context, "Americans" has to be defined as citizens of the United States, in which my argument on immediate ancestors still stands.

Heh.. he might have to do something about that 40% approval rate though.

Wait....wait.....

The far right doesn't like Obama?

Woah.......who knew?

Seriously, does anyone think that people is going to get their mind changed here? Talk about an exercise in predictability. This is becoming dull, even by political standards, and that's pretty bad.

Bilge_Rat · 09-22-10, 10:47 AM

I am actually old enough to remember the Carter presidency...

I dont really see the similarity. The big problem Carter had is that he seemed overwhelmed by events and unable to take a decision, which is not a problem Obama has.

The final nail in the coffin was the continuing hostage drama when Iranian radicals seized all the US embassy personnel in Teheran in 1979 and held them all the way through 1980 without Carter taking any decisive action.

Carter was a good man, but unsuited to be president. You need someone who is not afraid to go to war and order kids to their death when the situation calls for it.

Blaming the first amendment for Obama isn't a good strategy.

We poor Europeans trapped in our socialist unhappiness don't seem to do all that badly....

By the way, thanks for explaining that we only think that we are happy, bullethead...could you please explain how you appear to KNOW that you are happy, rather than just thinking it?

I did not even know that guy was popular in Europe.

He can not be underestimated. Besides, who is really out there that can compete?
