Dumped the missile shield. Now can he actually sock away the saved money, or is it burning a hole in his pocket? It's very uncool to be a cheapskate, ya know. Chicks don't dig it.

I'm not a "conservative" although I do consider myself fiscally conservative. I have to say that at least he keeps a cool head. There isn't the "you're with me or against me" philosophy that could be detrimental to his administration.

Obama "dumped the missile shield" which has been the Russians main excuse against supporting the US in our efforts to deal with Iran. Obama is a brilliant strategist!

Well, I am a real conservative with more then '10' rep points so here is my take on Obama;

He is exceptionally well spoken and reminds me of Reagan when giving speeches.
I love the fact that the white house has little kids in it again.
I do believe that he truly believes that everything he wants to accomplish will benefit our country and citizens.

I never once saw Bush throw a tantrum and hide behind Laura when the mudslinging began. Has Michelle been given an honorary Secret Service badge for protecting the president from name calling?
I don't recall Bush being seriously bashed until the Iraq War was exposed for what it really was. Poking fun at his accent is not on par with the venomous false accusatoins that Obama has dealt with since the campaign. Really no comparison. Obama beat the odds to get to The White House fair and square. Bush's ascent to the Oval Office was an entirely different ball game. I do not think that you will ever see another POTUS make more attempts to reach across the aisle as Obama has, unfortunately, this will be to his detriment. Considering the fact that he is a very educated and intelligent man, I do not believe that he had any concept of the actual amount of disdain and resentment that was waiting for him once he took office. I watched an interview with some writer the other night and he made a remark in reference to Obama's incredible ability to really listen to and consider all sides of a debate, you cannot deny that we have witnessed this, so give credit where credit is due.

"more than '10' rep points" That made me chuckle.

I'm don't consider myself conservative, but I"m just saying this is a great post. If I were conservative, I'd say the exact same things.
