How many of you would feel secure having Biden and Pelosi running the country? I remember during the campaign everyone saying " Palin is a heartbeat away from being president". Now look what we have!

Well, after seening Biden and Pelosi in action, who can say they feel secure with those two? Don't think about it too long or you might be forced into therapy. It is a very scary thought.

I think we all better pray for Obama. His Mom died of Cancer when she was 50, both of his fathers were dead before 50, then his Grandma died of cancer. He's a smoker....He doesn't have longevity on his side.

We could end up with Mr Hair Plugs and the Angry Clown running this ship! YIKES!!!!!!

While I won't resort to calling them names, I would be, let's just say, unhappy if either ended up in a position of command.

I haven't felt safe since Mr. Bush left office. That's another emotion, though.

Biden is a clown and a loudmouth, but he has a brain and experience.

Pelosi is a pathetic Speaker of the House, so I care not to think of the nightmare that is her as President.

So does that mean you "felt safe" under Bush?

Remember, under Bush we had the largest ever terrorist attack on American soil...an entire city of 500,000 was nearly wiped off the map, a US Army scientist was sending Anthrax through the mail, and the destabilization of the Middle East has led to an increase in piracy and deaths of members of the Armed Services.

Sorry, but Bush hardly "kept us safe".

Biden and Pelosi are FAR better than Palin and Boehner...Because with Palin as president, this country would be done. She is a grade-A moron. Biden is a bit of a doofus, but at least he's got tons of foreign policy experience and political expertise.

9/11 happened on Bush's watch, but Clinton laid the groundwork. However, Bush led us into a misguided war which in my opinion accomplished little if anything. Only time will tell if invading Iraq was of any benefit. We may not discover the answer for several years. We've been dragging our feet in Afghanistan for way too long also. The more I look at it, the more it seems these wars are kept alive to make contractors and lobbyists very wealthy. Conspiracy fodder but not totally without merit. Halliburton? Brown and Root? Ahem!

Palin would have been no worse than Obama. Both have little experience and are unqualified for the job of POTUS. However, today's President's are just stand in guys. They surround themselves with people smarter than themselves and read from teleprompters while waving at the cameras. So long as we are victim to the two party system, we will be electing corporate groupies into office.

No. Put it this way, if I had children, I wouldn't feel safe leaving them with either Pelosi or Biden.

Why not? They both have children of their own. Biden's son is fighting in Iraq. What's wrong with their parenting skills?
