So Obama is as bad as McCain?

THAT is the line of reasoning you are going with?

Obama,and by their continued support,his followers are neo-cons and chickenhawks.

One they can't blame on Bush.


The boxed set of "The West Wing" does not equate experience. Barry is an incompetent boob who is in way over his head. I don't know if the country will survive until 2012.

Is the President cognizant of how he is viewed by those who elected him, and evenmoreso by those who despise him?

Can one man speak out of both sides of his mouth so many times and actually not recognize the fallacy of his ways?

Quite simply, this man cannot be trusted. All you have to do is compare his words to his actions to understand his mindset. I wouldn't give any legitimacy to a private citizen who acts this way towards me, so why would I even consider giving the President a free pass? Trust me....I don't and I won't.
I am just bewildered, that so many are still buying into the rhetoric that Obama is still selling, at some point, you have to just realize what this person is all about. He flip-flops so often, how can you all be ok with that. This President obviously cannot be trusted.

It is a wonder to listen to the Obamaspinmeisters interpreting his rationale for getting involved in Libya and not getting involved elsewhere.

Obama has to remember that his words and actions are not being reviewed by a world full of lawyers and politicians. His great failure is his ability to communicate.

The people all over the world hear what he says and based on his speech believe he will ride his whitehouse into Syria and Iran or anywhere else the downtrodden try to rise up. Won't they be surprised!

Obama is a media contrived orator of great embellished accomplishment who fails to make the grade as a communicator.

Hypocrocy is a mild insult that needs to be corrected for recognition of an egomaniacal attitude enabled by the purposeful lack of archival reference by the media. With no existence of yesterday, the need to explain any transition from position A to position B is unnceesary.

Do you see how when Obama makes a decision, he is not sure people are buying into that he has a rationale, about these decisions he has made, when he thinks the public at large, is not buying into his rhetoric.

Considering McCain more or less supports Obama's decision to intervene, that is a pretty safe bet to make.

Putting aside whether intervening there is right or wrong, the fact of the matter is McCain did not campaign on a platform of nonintervention (the man was talking tough about Russia invading Georgia), while Obama did. Furthermore, McCain is not President, while Obama is.

Which leaves me wondering about the relevancy of your statement.
