After reading the posts on here for the past few days I have come to a conclusion. Our country is finished. At a time when we should all be pulling together and lending our support to the man who was elected "by the people" it is more apparent than ever that those who did not support him have decided to place their hatred above their concern for the country. I did not support Bush but when he won I supported him in every way I could. I stood behind him for his whole two terms hoping that he would lead the country in a positive way. He lied to me, he lied to the country, he did things that were just plain wrong but still I stood behind him. I never called him names or made fun of him. I respected the office and therefore the man. But you call me names, you say I am a moron, simply because I had the gaul to support Obama. I just don''t understand why you all continue with all this. You are doing nothing to help the country to recover and you seem to enjoy hurting all of us. For God''s sake people, if you love your country stop dividing us. Give the man a chance before you start demanding his head. If he is all the terrible things you claim he is it will come out and we have a constitution that allows us to remove politicians that have committed crimes against the people. But please, I beg of you, put your country ahead of your hatred.

Keep up the good work Obama?
Seances is something for CHANGE!
On your inauguration day do not forget to include the wicthes.
Also when you take your oath do not forget to use the Koran!

Are we going to have to listen to/read your stupid Osama jokes for the next four years? I guess so since your candidate obviously didn''t win.

I believe you can call on the spirits for conversation?
I do not believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
I believe there is many ways to God?

Including trying to contact the dead?

It only took him two days to put his foot in his BIG mouth. He has already had to apologize. What a joke he is. This is only the first of many mistakes he is going to make.
Hillary, she is 1000 times better then Obama Osama will every be.

Tell Obama if he wants to contact someone down here it has to be someone who held unto self and did not turn to God by Jesus Christ .
To tell the truth it would be a demon in the disguise of someone he knows!

Element,

Your viewpoint of history is very different than mine. The Reagan Administration fixed the economic turmoil of the Carter Administration.
During the Carter Administration the amount of Communist Countries increase, during the Bush Sr. Administration due to the Reagan Administration''s policies the Soviet Union fell. Before this I was fearful of nuclear fallout.
The Carter Administration did not support the Shah of Iran, thus bringing in Islamic extremism to the Middle East. A type that was very anti-western, and anti-U.S.
I voted for President Carter, it was a mistake, not again!

It''s amazing to see Oh Bummers ability to use hundreds of words to say absolutely nothing. Time for him to produce concrete results or at least show us that he actually has a well thought out plan.

..............

yer man W is still president and therefore still implementing HIS plans which, by the way, are the reason Obama won a landslide and will implement HIS plans when it is HIS turn in January....if you remain patient he will show you then that your faith in him is justified.

Element51: I thought sure that once "your guy" won the election that you democrats would not be so angry...instead; you want to call anyone who posts anything you disagree with "low grade morons". You really should get some help with anger management. Your guy won....chill, chill...

Obama tends to be flippant and cavalier in many of his comments. It''s also being a smart you know what. Maybe he''ll try thinking before he puts his foot in his mouth just to get a laugh. Although, it wouldn''t be the first nor the last time politicians have either done or said ignorant, thoughtless, and foolish things.

He''s just as capable of making dumb remarks as any other president. Take a look at our last president. He''s dumber than a rock. And take a look at the Italian Prime Minister who yesterday made a crack about Obama being "tanned". They''re all upset at him there, and he''s refusing to apologize. Talk about classless.

Yes, I could also see that he realized it was a mistake right away. Good thing he had the right stuff to call and personally apologize.

Some leaders we know won''t even recognize when they have made mistakes that cost lives and billions of dollars.

You Obama bashers make me sick. You hate him so much that you would watch the country go straight to hell just so you could gloat about it. You claim to be such patriots but you don''t give two ****** about the country. Are you so stupid that you don''t understand that the country is in crisis? The man hasn''t even taken office but some of you are jumping all over him because he hasn''t solved all our problems yet. By putting up the kinds of posts you do you are showing that you are nothing more than low grade morons who lack the ability to form a constructive thought. If he does fail, as you so desperately want him to, I hope you are one of the first to end up living in a box underneath an overpass.

The Classiness is that he apologiezed. The previous 2 Presidents would have made the comments but NOT apologized.

Ok...I didn''t vote for him...but he was elected and he''s now "our" President....so we have to hope he does well. Having said that...for a guy who''s suppose to be really smart and classy...that was really a "CLASSLESS" comment he made about Nancy Reagan.....yeah, yeah...he called her and said he was sorry...but, did he have a choice?? Once you say something like that...it''s not easily forgotten. Let%u2019s hope he does better in the future...
