Ok, I can't spell but I can figure out that uncontrolled spending will lead to double digit inflation in about 5 years. We can thank George and Barrack for that ... but George was up front about it. So George was an idiot, Barrack is a is liar. Oh, and how does somebody who was a professor for 12 years become a junior associate at a prestigious lawfirm? Maybe they were the muslim haters ... or maybe he got the job the matched the skill set for a constitutional lawyer. I always wanted to fix a transmission boss!! (From an old AAMCO commercial)
Your comments about Muslims do not require any "reading between the lines" to see that you disapprove of Muslims. I guess he was hired as a jr. associate at the law firm b/c he was just starting there. Sort of like if I, as a pediatric nurse, took a job in a dialysis clinic (for example). I wouldn't be hired as the head nurse off the bat.

And, Obama has a time table to close Gitmo - what did you expect him to do - close it the day he took office?

I'm afraid your hatred for the man is showing - big time. And yes, IMO, you are also spewing some bigotry in your comments as well.
He got hired only because his buddy that owned Resco got him the job but could only manage to get him that position because he was not qualified for anything better. I hate what he will do to the country. I noticed that you did not mention the other lies (pork... He clearly stated he close Gitmo within a year but now has reversed and it will stay open indefinately. I dont hate muslims, I hate liars and socialists, Obama is both. To katriana, please ... I already gave the example regarding an intern surgeon and you could not grasp the concept. If is so smart and talented then why did he need Resco to get him the job? Could he not have worked in another firm that recognized his talents and placed him in a position that he was qualified for? Nope he preferred to hang with the criminals and racists. I mean come on people, he was buddies with this guy for 17 years and did not know that he was biggest slumlord in Chicago and was brutalizing the people Obama sought to help by being a community activist?

Obama has CLEARLY stated recently that it is intention to close Gitmo by January if at all possible. That would be the year. So, no lie there.

And, you don't know why he was hired as a Junior Associate. Inasmuch as I do the hiring for my firm (law), and based on Obama's credentials, I might have hired him as such myself.

I have to say with all due respect, you are making statements with absolutely no facts to back your assertions up.

The Mayor of the City of Las Vegas is Oscar Goodman (the Happiest Mayor in America! ). Oscar is a very fine man and an excellent Mayor.

Oscar Goodman was also the Lawyer for many of the Mafia bosses.

Does the fact he was a "Mob" lawyer make him any less of a fine man and a Great Mayor?

Obama was his best friend not his lawyer. The January date is now off, they don't know what do with the detainees. Check your facts. A constitutional lawyer has no real world experience, that is why he was hired as junior associate. When he graduated from Harvard he was offered the same if not better positions. So again, after 12 years of working as a part time professor the best he could get was a junior associate position, please, get off your knees for the mesiah, put down the washington compost, take your ridilin and usher in some common sense.

Perhaps you should go back and re-read some of my previous posts: I did not vote for Obama. I am not an Obama supporter.

But, what I am trying to be is fair - and his experience as a lawyer is absolutely 1000% meaningless to the topic of this thread. It is very much off topic that it leads me to believe that this thread ought to be closed - and I will make such a request of the moderators.

I might suggest you check your hatred at the door though - for, it is seriously clouding in my judgment your ability to be objective in your perspective(s).

Moderators: IMHO, it is TIME to close this thread. No meaningful, on topic posts, are being offered - and have not been offered in some time.

Looks like this thread keeps going off topic and I think the original topic has been beaten to death by now. Closed.
