So, you do wish him doom. A bit hypocritical, no?

And I love your mindset: "I'd support him if only he were exactly like me!"

What socialist ways are you referring to? How much of your money has he taken?

This is not the first string you have jumped on the anti-Obama doghouse and attempted to create a controversy over nothing, I just called your hand on it, and you do not like it. Somehow I suspect you do not give a rats ass about the delicate sensibilities of the Prime Minister of Great Brition, you just want to discredit Obama.

Pops, I'm relieved you're of legal age to be using these forums.. I was worried there for a minute.

Thank you for your service and for your sacrifices for me, my family and our country. I'm sorry for your loss and humbled by your son's sacrifice.

I hear what you're saying and I understand the emotion behind your words. I agree... The republics really screwed things up.. Bush was a nightmare and under Republican watch, many many mistakes were made.

However, that does not mean that Democrats played no role in this.. For the true causes, you need to dig a little deeper. It may feed your emotion and bush hatred to lay blame solely on the Repubs, but the fact is that all of our leaders have failed us. Our system is flawed and there is little difference between D & R nowadays... The mess we face now is not simply a "Republican Mess" ... This goes back much further and there are TONS of Democratic fingerprints on the bodies... Don't take my word for it.. Do the research yourself.

I did not support Obama in this election. Although I would have preferred McCain over Obama.... My vote went to the only candidate I truly supported, Ron Paul. After Obama won I publicly and privately stated that I would support him and hope he was a man of his words..

Well, it didn't take long to see him break way too many promises and assurrance for me to reserve judgment any longer.. I'm sorry you won't hold your leader accountable.

Just because I speak up against what I feel is wrong, does not mean I am trying to "stir up controversey"... I know that is a common reaction to criticism that makes you uncomfortable but beware of shutting your mind to others perspective...

You're right.. I don't care about Gordon Brown... Not even a little bit.. HOWEVER, I do care about the people of Great Britain. I do care about our relationship in history and the future and I do appreciate and respect that the nation has stood by us when all others turned their backs.. That is why I'm embarrassed and offended that the figurehead of that great nation and ally would be treated so poorly. When my best friend comes over, I go out of my way to make sure he knows I appreciate his friendship and his presence...

I'm sure there was something special lying around the white house that wouldn't have cost a dime...

This is ridiculous.. I'm embarrassed.

Those are BYOB parties.

A president with a brain!!!!! You don't mean Obama....I know he is a smart socialist but he has to use a brain if he has it, to get this economy back on track and so far he is running the country into bankruptcy faster than I can write it!

I would laugh if it was funny, but this so serious....

Get real...

LMAO!! You really don't want me to answer that first question.. Your posts speak for themselves on that one..

Are you seriously claiming to know what I would have posted if Obama treated Brown with the respect he deserved?? Are you really arguing this.. Wow... You're far gone... All I have to say to you is

Begone Troll

You sure aren't kidding! He took office on January 20, and you've given up during the first week of March. Do you think it might be possible that you're a tiny bit hasty in your decision?

How many lies should I permit before holding him accountable?

How much wreckless spending and partisan politics should I watch get shoved down our throats before taking notice?

I'll give the man one thing, he's sure been busy since taking office... Unfortunately I'm paying attention.
