- Tonight on 60 Minute Senator Obama showed again how woefully ill-equipped he is for the Presidency. When asked why he should be President, he said he had a singular talent for getting people of vastly different opinions to compromise. That''s great, if you''re Senate Majority Leader, but it isn%u2019t what we need as President.
We need someone who has the confidence to make life and death decisions and then execute those decisions. I note that of the many Presidential candidates we%u2019ve seen over the last half century, Senator Obama is one of the only ones to vie for the Oval Office having never made such a decision. Truman commanded a WWI artillery battery, Eisenhower the entire European theater in WWII, Kennedy a PT Boat; Nixon, Goldwater, Johnson, Ford, Carter, and Bush ''41 all served in the armed forces as officers and had men under their command, even Reagan, Clinton, and Bush ''43 had to make death penalty decisions as governors. But Senator Obama has never had anyone%u2019s life in his hands. He%u2019s never had that kind of power. I daresay he has no idea how he%u2019d react if he got it.
And now we%u2019re thinking about trusting him with our armed forces? Our nuclear arsenal? When he%u2019s called upon to make a decision involving those implements of national policy and mass destruction, what if the people in the room with him can%u2019t or won%u2019t come to a consensus. What is he, and what are we, going to do then? - Reply to this comment
- Excellent interview by Sen. Obama. He is direct, honest and to-the-point, unlike the Zig Zag Express McCain.
McSame is undergoing extreme makeover as a change agent after voting with Bush 90% of the time. This makeover won''t last any longer than the average Botox treatment that his wife gets. The American people have seen too many extreme makeover shows on TV not to know the difference between what''s real and what''s fake. McBush-Failin'' ''08

- I think the media has given Obama smooth sailing without questioning things from the past.. on his lack of experience.. calling him the chosen one.. go to factcheck.org and it has many ads he has put out that are proven false.. and yet he is whining that someone put false ads out about him.. He is the second biggest receiver of things from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.. Rubins his economic advisor is tied up in Citigroup, part of the mortgage crisis? Volckers is part of the recession years ago, that put us in a recession. He received all kinds of pork barrel spending projects. John McCain in 2005 had a bill to look into both of these and it was voted off .. check the records.. Chris Dodd..ugh .. got the most money, head of the banking committee.. bring him on and ask him what was going on.. I am an Independent who voted for Clinton, but am not voting Dem. this time.. Party for women.. I have witnessed enough lately how they treat women.. For a party that preaches tolerance, the things they tolerate is growing smaller. Never once have I heard Democrat candidates denounce some of the worst comments made about women,,ie Clinton or Palin. Noone lives like the lefties in Hollywood. Who cares when they are given endless platforms to try to shove their politics down our throats. Most here turn them off. I have seen nothing to show me that Obama has a plan, other than all talk.. What has he done? 143 days in the Senate?
