The same day President Obama received the nobel peace prize he launched a full scale nuclear missile attack on the Lunar surface. He also receives praise from his supporters because he speaks as if he cares for the environment and planet imagine the irony without any debate or allowing others to know in advance because of fear the environmentalist and other M.I.T. scientists as well as others world wide would criticize the action as unneeded, not necessary, environmental wrong it pollutes and disrupts with harmful effects a place undisturbed since the beginning of time itself, it is morally ( for those that have morals) and ethically wrong as well as inconsistent with everything we believe in. Imagine Gene Roddenberry's famous Start Trek saying == That we are on a peacefully 5 year mission to explore strange new planets and universes and boldly go where no man has gone before. ==== Peacefully and boldly === do not mean firing missiles at the planets is peaceful, it interferes withe Gene Roddenberry's so called "Prime Objective Orders from Star Fleet" that under no circumstances can we do anything to interfere with a planet or culture --- we must only watch them.
President Obama also wants to increase by 45,0000 and more weapons the conflict in Afghanistan. --- He continually states he is the only President to ever so called "Inherit Two Wars"=== in actuality this is a false and misleading statement ==== World War 2 --- was fought by the U.S.A. in every European Country and in every SouthEast Asia Country --- However it is all rounded up into one WAR - world war 2 === instead of saying each country is it's own war --- if they did that then we fought 300 wars at once ---- the President that fought 300 wars at once he would have to say is FDR and Truman, Lincoln Fought the civil and Indian wars thus he fought 299 wars. President Obama who said he would end the war he is currently fighting and gets a peace prize -- has done absolutely nothing in the eyes of his country to make good on that statement --- he has been in office for a long time now he should try t recognize that at some point before he leaves. It takes two minutes to end that war and anyone familiar with it and Presidents of America's past know it does and Presidents of the past have done it in two minutes -- without running around waving flag over his head to obtain attention for something he has never done yet ---Mr. Obama should get off the couch and do it, it should have been done by Know . Then the people that praise him they feel he is god no matter he does or says ---he has not come through on a single campaign promise yet ---- his economic stimulus package is anything , but it is more of a fleecing of the American taxpayers, it's totally mis spent and a shell game of unaccountability. The bailing out of the stock market violates free enterprise and the everyone of the ideals that made America great --- why should citizens who din't own stock , or in business for themselves without stockholders be placed in a position where the government sticks it's hands in their front pockets takes their money and does what it wants with it -- they constitution doesn't allow it but it's happening with Obama -- he has no traditional American Values --- he doesn't even have an AMerican Birth Certificate type in on the web search bar and read what people are saying --type " Obama no birth certificate or Birth Certificate Obama Forgery"
