I know he says he loves the country, but I don’t’ think he loves it’s citizens.
How can you say you are working for the people when you support; Free trade that sends jobs overseas. Amnesty that gives citizenship to illegals that took jobs American and drove down wages.
The only way you can is if you think the economy is “fundamentally strong” with these policies.
I know that the current financial mess is blamed on sub prime mortgages, but how many of these mortgages failed because the borrower lost his job to outsourcing and illegals driving down wages?
I know a bunch of people that are now earning half of what they were earning due to job cuts that sent their jobs overseas.
Now with the mortgage mess many more jobs will just go away. In a house of cards you remove the ones in the middle and all the cards fall down. That’s what is happening with “free trade” the ones in the middle are pushed out and the ones at the top will certainly fall down.

Are you SURE those comments aren't copyrighted and licensed for use only by those fear-mongerers in their diatribes about Obama not wearing a pin because he was born into an Islamic terrorist family?

He's a communist. The North Vietnamese turned him during his POW days. If he is elected President, whatever you do, keep this Hanoi Candidate away from card games . . .

Actually, boot camp is to psychologically break a person so that he is ready for the brainwashing that follows and he will be able to unquestioningly follow orders to kill people.
Armed forces, in their members, except for some at the very top, negate the individualism and critical thinking and the creativity that Americans tend to pride themselves in.
No wonder they come home crushed and with all sorts of psychological problems.
Spouses say 'I sent my husband/wife to war and they returned a stranger to me'.
So many Vietnam Vets are living under bridges.
Yeah. Soldiers are turned into something ugly that is robotic and not a good citizen when they return to us.
They are supposed to be mindless. THat's the whole point, isn't it?
War is disgusting.
It turns us into animals.
With only an instinct to snap to and follow orders.
It dehumanizes us.

"unquestioningly follow orders to kill people"
Please stop watching movies . Do yourself a favor .
Have you ever been to Boot camp? I am going to answer "NO" on your behalf .
You do not leave Boot camp a robot nor become a robot while in boot camp . Boot camp teaches you how to work together- builds confidence and teaches you basics about weapons,equipment you use.
Yes you learn to follow orders but certainly DO NOT follow them blindly. You put up with BS while there but it still doesn't make anyone a robot.
If you had gone to Boot Camp you would know this but being the full of it "I am better than you" limo lib that you are I don't expect you to understand much of anything.
