On Obama

He didn't deserve a second term.

Truth. He's just an ideologue politician who is very good at deceiving people with bland, empty rhetoric. Arianna Huffington wrote this as one of her tweets today:

"Second inaugurations aren't unlike second marriages: a triumph of hope over experience."

There's not much more that should be said. You don't even have to be qualified to be President anymore let alone have any real skills or real world experience.

This would be like hiring early childhood education majors to design engineering projects for NASA. Makes absolutely no sense when you try to apply that logic to other situations.

I voted for Obama in 2008. Partly it was because I thought that his opponent, Mr. McCain, wasn't sufficiently stable. But it was also partly due to the fact that I admittedly saw something, and that the fellow could conceivably be another JFK or Ike.......Yeah, I was a little bit off, huh?

I can only speak for myself of course, however, in my case my second marriage was indeed the triumph of experience over hope.

Lesson in point, generalities generally are not a good idea in politics or life.

Her history tends to be little on the hero-worshiping side, too, Russ; Lincoln, FDR, etc..

Will: Obama is like JFK a lot. His motto of "ask not what you can do for your country, ask what your country can do for you" is so similar to JFK's.

He is so greedy and seems to want to see how much he can screw the country for: from the many millions on luxury vacations to the trying to force the government to cut welfare checks to his rich friends to his making the government pay for part of his re-election campagn... to the 90 million he had the government pay for his personal glorification party last night. All of it entirely unnecessary: as out-of-touch multi-billionaires, the Obamas can pay for their own very lavish lifestyle.

I'm hoping for another JFK in the next election or that a knowledgeable war hero will become president. It would be great if they were a minority.
