True, but people are always judged by the company they keep.

(PS: Thanks for all the labeling and name calling)

name calling, I am just not sure what you mean? I must have misssed something here. If you think referring to you as a screaming lib is name calling so be it, but as liberal as you are, I would think that would be considered a complement?

It's one thing for a Mormon who happens to be a hell of a businessman win a state election. It's quite another to win the whole country.
You mean if he comes up with a good answer he could get some of the 95% of African-Americans who voted for BO to vote for him?

Someone should ask Mormon Harry Reid the same question.

Oil Spill crisis has been his first test of disaster recovery.

Bush got a lot of heat for Katrina, I think Obama is trying all he can to stay away from the same fate as Bush in that regard, but don't know. This is terrible, so much of our wildlife is dying...

Given the reality of evolution, even if the existing wildlife is dying of the oil, something will come along that thinks the stuff is free food. I believe these oil eaters are already there.

I don't think any of us could really know for sure, but speculate yes. I am more then happy because i have a lot of democratic friends, who every single one, not kidding! are now saying they are totally disgusted with Obama, say he talks out of his --- not me talking ohhhhhhhhhh democrats who voted for him, don't no longer trust him, thinks he is nothing but a fast talker, nothing else no substance, talks big, but no action, likes to blame and point fingers at everyone else but himself. Stuff i already knew, they are late bloomers, but thank Goodness they have come alive. I truly think by that time, people would of had enough of Obama, heard the old saying once is not enough, WELL IN OBAMA'S CASE once is more then enough.

The only way Obama wins in 2012 if he should run again is through vote fraud and illegal methods of that sort. The 98% of the Black vote, a few old Hippies, and a handful of Marxist thugs won't be enough to save him from hordes of angry people looking to elect anyone but Obama.
