They say "it takes one to know one". I'm serious. What do you know about Obama's inexperience? The only human you can vouch for, or against, is yourself and possibly members of your immediate family. All else is speculation.

Although I highly disagree with your basic premise ... as we can certainly assess someone's "experience" based on their past resume, along with their competence in handling the duties and responsibilities in their current position, which would either support their competence or highlight their inexperience ... this OBAMANATION that has been foisted on us has nothing whatsoever to do with competence or incompetence.

What we have now (which is really nothing new) is a politician ... in this case the President, who says one thing and does another. That's not incompetence .. that's old fashioned dishonesty ... a talent politicians are renowned for and shouldn't be a surprise.

The only thing that separates this president from past ones is how convincing he is when he lies, and how short the memories are of his supporters, along with one other very important distinction ...

The current agenda has been escalated to an alarming pace ... and only the brain dead are unable to see what is now transpiring ...

We have been bankrupted by illegal wars and illegal conduct on the part of the financial establishment ... trillions of dollars have been looted (the deficit has risen under Obama greater than any other president in history, including George Bush who initiated much of it), and in the midst of the worst financial crisis in the nation's history, we have an administration largely made up of financial gangsters .... an unprecedented environmental disaster in progress ... and another military build up for a war with Iran.

The dangers of all of this are obvious ... but the dangers of viewing this as 'incompetence" is simply assurance of a continuation until the nation suffers irreparable damage, and total collapse (which may already be the case now).

None of this is remotely associated with incompetence or lack of experience. This is the intentional destruction of the United States of America by the international gangsters that have taken power in Washington DC ... with Obama their sock puppet.

Uncontrolled spending has driven us to the brink of financial calamity .. and their response? Double, triple, quadruple spending? Allow the gulf coast and the economics of that area to be destroyed by BP (Goldman Sachs)? Engage in another war .. this time with Iran .. which will prove to be an even greater disaster than Afghanistan or Iraq, and will be the nail in our economic coffin if such is not already a foregone conclusion?

Anyone who thinks this isn't the calculated and intentional destruction that it is ... just isn't thinking at all.

We've been had. We've been robbed. Obama is just here to oversee the final stages of this ... and perhaps take the blame for allowing it through inexperience and incompetence.

Who cares? It won't matter come 2012 when he is quickly replaced by a more competant individual.

Who cares? Are you nuts? Anyone who is thinking should care, and be extremely worried! What makes you think the United States of America, as we know it now will even exist come 2012? At the rate things are going now ... the southeastern portion of the United States will be a wasteland and uninhabitable. One third of the entire gulf of mexico has already been closed to fishing, and there are talks of the potential evacuation of the gulf states (20+ Million people) thanks to BP and the intentional lack of effort to stop this nightmare which is NOTHING SHORT OF environmental and economic terrorism. This disaster has the potential of fouling the entire eastern seaboard and ruining THOUSANDS of miles of coast. Never have we experienced the level of devastation that is being called an "oil Spill". And that's the GOOD NEWS!!!

Now, the BAD NEWS ... A war with Iran looms on the immediate horizon, and seems almost a forgone conclusion now ... and that is an entirely different can of worms than Afghanistan or Iraq ... which already has burdened our armed forces, and the treasury to the breaking point. Who cares indeed. Apparently not enough of you all have the basic common sense to recognize the fact that we are hanging from the edge of a cliff, and these psychopathic criminals are kicking us in the head.

Do you "people" even understand the implications of what is happening RIGHT NOW??? This is how World Wars begin ... some say WW III has already begun ... it just hasn't been officially announced to the dummies yet.

You think Russia and China aren't going to be a bit perturbed with Israel and the United States when we nuke Iran and that radioactive fall out begins drifting into their countries?

Collectively, we, the American populace are viewed by the rest of the world as the most clueless, and dangerous idiots on the planet ... and guess what? They're right. We are.

And the proof is as plain as day. Here we are being robbed blind ... the politicians literally give us the middle finger ... we have a psychopathic illegal alien as president, and an even more psychopathic electorate that cheers him on still.

Guess what ... it doesn't matter now what Bush did ... he's gone. What matters is what is being done right now, and none of it is good.

Hopeless doesn't begin to describe the situation, and stupid doesn't begin to describe the American populace. We'd better wise up real quick or you'll wish you were dead before 2012 ever gets here ... and your wishes might come true.

Slow down or else you'll give yourself a heart attack. I dislike Obama as much as you (maybe), but what are you going to do about it? He is an elected official who has two years to go in his term. If you are pushing for impeachment charges and writing your congressmen daily, I commend you. That would mean you have a lot more time on your hands than most people. In the meantime, relax. You're gonna give yourself an ulcer.
