Yea, sure. President elect Obama is in over his head. Meanwhile, McCain is praying he can keep his job in Arizona, Palin is having a mental breakdown in Alaska, President ("I stole two elections") Bush has redefined the word "unpopular" and the Republican Party is running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Sure, President elect is over his head. We all are, with Republican nonsense. Give it a rest, man. We''re all sick of it.

First thing, get the missle launchers
out of Poland.

Second, forget Osama.

Third, stop listening to the military.

Fourth, then respond to EXACTLY what
happens in REALITY,,,NOT to what those
in the military who, even after six
years of their "expertise", cant leave Iraq
without Iraq going up like your favorite
ballpark fireworks show SAY will happen.

The generals are owned by the war profiteering
companies just as Bush is.

And what''s Obama going to do about our
Blackwater thugs???

I''ll tell you what!,,,He''ll never even
mention them!!

We''ve turned into a warring nation and
Obama is showing first signs that
he''s about to be caught up in it.

Just get out of Iraq and SEE what happens!!

Reality would prove lottsa people wrong!

United States %u2014 Population: 301,139,947 (July 2007 est.)
taken from gov site off Google moments ago.....and that probably does not include the millions of illegals here.

Now what did the Afghan people do to us? Do they grow poppies and ship their product to the USA? Seems like all our leaders and military folk think that they must have some country to invade and use their war toys so they can build bigger and better ones. Maybe some intellectual conversations with other leaders would make a difference.

It is not just Obama that is being tested, but the Democratic Party as well. The next election will not go to either Repub or Dems if we cannot resolve these war issues for civilized people are fed up with senseless killing.

AmJoe, If you weren''t so pathetic, you might be funny. You know after WWII ended, some of the Germans would stretch wires across the road so as to behead our soldiers driving around in jeeps. You remind me of them. Why do you scoundrels feel so compelled to wrap yourself in our flag? God has rejected you, as have the American people. Write your sick minded nonsense to Steve Schmidt or Karl Rove, your real leaders. We tire of it.

What the Republican Party needs to learn is that if you put an idiot in the White House, you have an idiot in the White House. There are now some 280 million Americans. Can the Republican Party not do any better than the Three Stooges: Bush, McCain and Palin, all of whom MUST be regarded as academic failures. These puppet presidents have not done your party much good, have they? Karl Rove and Steve Schmidt are the real leaders of the Republican Party, and what does that say about you? Your party is led by despicable men who lie and deceive our citizens so that they vote for your puppet presidents. You are sick. Your party is sick. None of you can hold a candle to President elect Obama, more or less our original founding fathers. It''s all a disgrace. So, babalu59, while I can appreciate your civility (highly unusual behavior for a Republican) and respect for our soldiers, I note that you are part of the problem, a huge part of the problem. I would also note that it is too late for you to make amends for the over 4,000 Americans soldiers who paid for the Republican Party with their lives. %u201CIf you put an idiot in the White House, you have an idiot in the White House.%u201D That should be your new mantra. You Republicans need to turn off Fox News and pray for forgiveness. Stop pretending you love God. You cannot love God whilst you so love to lie and deceive your fellow countrymen. Nice blog, but all I see is someone who voted for McCain.

Discussing this issue on another forum last night, I was reminded of the words of a famous American: When you have a gun, shoot, don''t talk!

I hope and pray that President-elect Obama works with the people that actually live in this region of the world. We weren''t too comfortable with Soviet missles in Cuba as I recall and I get the feeling that maybe other nations aren''t too comfortable with the USA in their backyards. I agree that Bin-Laden needs to be brought to justice but we need to talk to other leaders and not just go willy nilly into every corner of the world flexing our muscle when a little dialogue with the right countries might mean a few less soldiers coming home in flag drapped coffins. And by the way, I did not vote for Mr. Obama but I do believe he deserves our respect and support until he shows that he doesn''t deserve either. God bless the USA. And God bless our Veterans and the young men and woman fighting today''s war.
