That is the problem with you Obummer lovers, you blame the world on Bush. Obummer promised change from Bush's regime; he hasn't delivered. In fact, its business as usual. He hasn't done jack, to change what Bush stood for. Moreover, he has backed MORE of Bush's stances then he has not.

However, everytime Obummer gets in the hot seat its: Bush. Its BUSH's fault. Yeah, ok. We KNOW THIS. Now what? Do something. Not smoke cigarettes, raise taxes, and blame the rich.

Obummer is the president now. NOT BUSH. Let it go already and fix the problems at hand. But no, you tree hugging liberals cannot and will not; hence, nothing will change and/or be fixed.
Can't rep you again so + 100!

Nope.

In fact, someone upthread said that it was apparent that Obama chose his words very carefully ... and I agree. He meant what he said in this speech.

If he cared about people who were non-believers, I really think he would've said something, don't you?

He said it. He only wants good for people who believe in God.

Yep. I can't believe you are having a hard time comprehending what he meant ... it's quite a simple really. And he wanted everyone to pay attention to it too ... I mean he ended his speech with it.

ETA: I just saw you added links. Doesn't matter. I'm not reading 'em. I saw and heard Obama say it tonight. Maybe he had different feelings before. But now as of today ... he only wants good for people who believe in God.

This thread is fun; the left doesn't disappoint. Another round of, "Look over there! Bush!!" They simply won't admit the disaster that the Obama presidency has been and will end as. They were punk'd and, deep inside, they know it but to apologize to the country is outside of their ability.

Hey, look over there! Bush!!!

It is the greed of crooked politicians selling out their constituents to fill their pockets.

It is the greed of politicians willing to trade sovereignty for the votes of illegals for amnesty.

It is the greed of politicians willing to rob Peter to pay Paul so that Paul and all of Paul's welfare family will vote for them.

Why should the top 2% be responsible for keeping this country afloat. Why should 51% of Americans get away with paying NO income tax at all and be able to vote themselves more social entitlement programs?

Hey, look over there! Bush!!!
I have to wonder about people who get so worked up about wanting to fight and argue and insult "the other side". What's it like to live their life IRL? I have to assume they probably never open their mouth least a fist end up in it. At least they can role play on the forums ehh?

It's tremendously irritating to see people passing themselves off as adults act like 6 year olds. Yea everyone gets peckish occasionally, I know I do, but some live for it on CF. It's an obsessinon. I think thats very disturbing, not "fun".
