Yes I did. You replied to a statement about “Darwinism at work” with an ignorant video reaction of someone making a fool of them self. My response was meant to point out the fact that this is the exception not the norm. Hence the video of others doing something similar on the opposite side.

Again, being a tough guy and calling someone a coward from behind your computer is kind of, well, being what you're calling Obama. I do agree with your attack of this guy's 95% statement. No facts to justify that. Then again, the majority of your posts are void of any factual data or anything to justify your opinion. Case in point, I have no clue why you call Obama a coward.

Feel free to call people out for dreaming up ideas out of their backside, but please do apply that idea to your own posts.

Given the results of the Obama presidency, the answer to that question is obvious. I would offer that "gullible" would be more appropriate, as even intelligent people can fall for a con.
Yes and plenty of unintelligent people blame the sitting president for the recession he was handed by the previous President. There's nothing the guy has done to cause a disaster other than takeover in the midst of a massive recession. Sadly, plenty of people have their heads too far up their backside to take that into consideration.

Like the guy or not, judge him on his merits. He's mostly done the exact same things that everyone else was proposing to deal with the current mess.

Just because you don't like someone's political opinions does not make them an "enemy" of the country and justify military intervention. Most people in the military understand that Obama was fairly elected, that he operates within the same framework of checks and balances as any other President would, and that once he has served his time - whether it be one or two terms - he will step aside and the people will elect a new President. So there is no need for them to do anything other than what they already do legally and well in accordance with the Constitution.

That just so happens to coorelate with the "direction of the state" part of the poll. which was right Direction 65/35 wrong track , so the inverse of the country as a whole.

No one blames Obama for the recession. People blame Obama for a failed economic policy that has failed to emerge from the recession. Obama, of course (like Bush before him), inherited a bad economy. Unlike every president before him, Obama has failed to formulate a viable and effective recovery plan and has thus failed. It is his FAILURE AND INCOMPETENCE that people do not like.

I find it odd that liberals embrace his incompetence, simply because he is a democrat. I, as did many republicans, did not care for Bush, as he was a fiscal liberal. I did not care that he had an "R" on his cap. Libs, on the other hand, really do not care about the nation as long as a liberal is sitting in the White House. I wonder how many of those unemployed college kids, who wildly supported Obama in 2008, still think he is an effective leader and is thier best hope for prosperity? If they vote for Obama, they should probably check again with mom and dad to make sure it is okay for them to live in their basement for another four years.

For some, they have a family tradition of military service. For others it may begin as a way to pay for college and yet others still join and decide they like it. They would protect your sorry butt.
I got a full scholarship to college, I didn't need to put my life on the line to protect corporate interests. Why are there so many unemployable veterans if they are all Stephen Hawking-level geniuses I know a lot are less fortunate and join to get thru college. Most military I've met aren't the most intellectual people.
