Never send a boy to do a man's job. Unfortunately, that is exactly what America just did, even though there was absolutely nothing in Obama's past which would indicate his competence at any thing other than self-promotion. How much death and destruction is there going to be before America realizes that there was something more at stake than feeling good about itself by putting a black man in the White House. One day, history could very well record that the American election of 2008 was one of the biggest follies in history.

You had to start a new thread for this? Your post wouldn't work on any number of threads that already exist?

I guess, we should have elected instead that very experienced moron called McCain, the one who said that the fundamentals of the economy are strong
and his genius VP, Sarah Palin who thinks Africa is a country. Or maybe we should have given Bush a third term.

no, the "follies" was the "george follies", if it were not for the 10 trillion entrance fee and the 1/4 million dead from an utterly contrived war it could be a musical but it is not it is a tragedy.
and mr obama is about to bring the curtain down on what has been a very bad musical.

No instead we should have sent an old man with cancer and senile dementia to take care of things. Then if he didn't last, there was always the Wasilla hillbilly

Get over it..come Jan 20th Barack Obama will be the 44th president and all the sniping and sniveling isn't going to change a thing.

On the other hand one day history could very well record that the American election of 2008 was the best decision the country made in a century, I know you won't be wishing that but hopefully you'll be around to eat crow if it does happen.

Well - you just revealed yourself to be a card-carrying racist!!

Boy??? Just who the heck do you think you are???

And for your info - the biggest follies in history were the elections of Bush in 2000 and 2004, and his monumental screw-up in getting us into a war in Iraq...
