He went and asked for more military support for the war on terror. What did he accomplish? The euros said “Bien sur que non”.
He went to give speeches and blame the past administration at every event.
Mission accomplished.
He went to show he's not George Bush.
Mission accomplished.
He went to show he's a nice guy and will constantly negociate and not be a big meanie...
I think he did that ok.
So other than a bunch of campaign rehtoric what did he accomplish?
Nothing!!! end of story.

What he has accomplished in just a few short months working his tail off.

I just have to shout to the world how I feel.

His trip abroad has been soooo successful. The fences are being mended which is most necessary.
No man is an island and the planet is getting smaller and smaller.

God Bless Obama and his family and keep the safe!!!!
In total agreement!

I cannot imagine what it is like in nations like S. Korea, Taiwan, Israel, Japan, or any one of a half dozen former Soviet Republics.
To know that the U.S. is now simply a part of Europe.

What the heck are you talking about

Who the hell said we are a part of Europe.

We live in a GLOBAL ECONOMY.. what we do affects them.. as is evident by the GLOBAL financial crisis.

As much as they need us.. we need them.

That doesn't mean that we are NOT the United States..
Do we have to be arrogant idiots in order to be seperate.

What the hell is wrong with working together AS HUMAN BEINGS>> A HUMAN RACE to end the threat of nuclear war.. to end wars period

Wow.. some people can't get out of the past and look to a new future.

Easiest question of the day, it's because they lack common sense.

Why do right wingers (mostly uptight wads) run solely on greed and fear and their wallets?

I really think he'll get a lot closer to it than Bush's ways. He's utilizing someting called DIPLOMACY.. obviously something sorely lacking on the right

Then again.. I'm arguing with someone on a board who thinks Obama brought up blacks and Indians and our mistakes with them in his French Town Hall speech.. Which is complete and utter nonsense.

I don't think you read anything.. Ithin you take a headline and then spew right wing rhetoric and nonsense on this boards.. in otherwords..your just trolling

Well I guess we can get rid of that other old piece of paper, the Declaration of Independence.

Is anyone else sick of left wingers equating pride in the U.S.A. with arrogance?
