Warmongers and imperialists and big government dependents(that includes both socialists and fascists) have a whole line up of candidates to chose from, they are all "six in one hand and half a dozen in the other", so you cant go wrong!

But if you love peace and liberty, Ron Paul is the only candidate and that is a fact jack!
And the only crackpot, oh except Bachmann. But hey, shouldn't you be posting your Paul cheerleading posts on a thread where the topic is Paul, the topic here is about the President, not some past and present reject that is going no where but home.

Its funny, when Obama was running for office his whole platform was anti war, and at that time the whole democratic party was anti war, and that is how they won the presidency. Yet as soon as he was elected, his true colors began to shine through and instead of the democrats calling him out and demanding for him to follow through with his campaign promises, they all just clammed up and now they are all gung-ho as much as the repubs are.

Just goes to show that party people are most often not about policy, but about party loyalty regardless of policy. For them its not about the right policies for America, its about your social club having the next turn at bat.

Well, at least you agree that he is the ONLY candidate for peace and liberty.

At the same time, over 0.5 million public sector jobs have been eliminated.

Obama is growing the private sector and shrinking the public sector.

The President has pursued very good policies to encourage this healthy recovery. I will be giving him my vote in 2012.

We're withdrawing all troops from Iraq this year, and withdrawing 33,000 from Afghanistan by the end of next year. Not sure that makes for a pro-war president.

...and replacing them with military/defense contractors who costs more taxpayer money/head than US soldiers. This is called cheating the public, and people like you swallow it hook, line and sinker.

This seems like a dishonest post. I can't believe that anyone who did not vote for Obama could be converted by the great job he has done on the economy.

The timeline that is being followed for leaving Iraq was set by the Bush administration, so thank bush for that and not Obama. As far as Afghanistan, ill believe it when i see it ... and regardless, they are just gearing up for Iran and then possibly Pakistan.

Obama is just following the plan ... He is not stopping the war machine, he is just helping to prepare it for the next wave of wars.


"You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains."

"When people say, "There is peace and security," destruction will strike them as suddenly as labor pains come to a pregnant woman, and they will not be able to escape."
