Our political climate doesn't allow that.

But, fortunately, as you state, he has retained a high level of sincerity about it when he does bring it up, quite reflective of the noble cobra: hidden until it's necessary.
"Social Justice" is a Marxist value, not Christian.

Obama was born a Muslim and raised a Muslim. What is he now? Well, he is destructive to this country, regardless of which faith he claims or practices. So, does it really matter? His actions speak louder than words.

Obviously you did not get my reference to the cobra, dancing to the tune of another's flute until it becomes distracted and strikes out at anyone, anything that it sees as t threat. Obama strikes out against this country and what makes it great in an effort to entrench Marxist policies. He strikes out at individual citizens who criticize him. But those who follow him and think he is admirable remained entranced with him, not seeing the danger, just mesmerized.

I don't like his politics never lie about that. But lets be honest, do you feel that this is the economy, housing situtation, jobs, that your happy with. I don't like someone who pormise us the world before they are elected, tell us all that he is going to be our answer, to fix everything, be partisian, watch his spending habits, blah blah blah. He is the same as everyone else, promises us all what he does for us, and loves to blame others for his mistakes, and by the way he is very good at it!

Obviously you do not get the concept of irony. Nice attempt at poetic imagery, though.

Were you expecting him to just walk in, snap his fingers, and burst rainbows all over the world? He's not the messiah. He's a president and the progress he's made in the short 2 years he's been at the helm is astounding, to say the least.

If you actually listened to him during the campaign, he was very regulated in what he promised. He made it abundantly clear throughout that it would be a long, hard journey to get back on top and even said we may not get there in 4 years.

I've been nothing but impressed with his leadership and ability to work effectively with whoever shares power with him, whether it's been the Democrats or the currently split house.

You're clearly on the extreme right if you think the extraordinary progress we've made in the past two years is "destroying our country". Such tired old lines. Not worth even discussing as corporate profits soar, almost all that was lost in the stockmarket has been recovered, jobs continue to post month over month gains, we finally moved a step closer to universal health care, homosexuals finally don't have to live a lie to serve our nation, we ended the war in Iraq and finally focused on the more important one in Afghanistan as he promised, and we slowly, sporadically, and surely are building the next economy for the future.

Those who think Obama is a socialist, communist, atheist, muslim, dictator, facsist, nazi, or whatever y'all are calling him this week, is just a smoke screen. Just admit you're a racist and live your true identity.

Also, note how the extremists' constant harping about the evils of TARP has evaporated now that nearly all of the money has been repaid.

You guys love this one in particular don't you?

Not agreeing with someone on their views, of which there is ample examples, does not equal racisim.

I've heard what he says about the Constitution and it sickens me.
He is being judged by his actions and charactor.
Neither of which are proving to be very good.

I have no problem with a black man in the office, just a wrong man being there.

But he does play the Puppet very well.
