- If we are to come together in Peace like in marriage, something must give and you must be fully prepared for that 'give'. Americans have a great relationship with Saudi Arabia because Americans look the other way when it comes to Human Right abuses. Just imagine if Obama starts to criticize the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the almost no freedom and democracy in Saudi Arabia.
If you feel weakness, its because you have never been in a reconciliation with your spouse and that is a big weakness onto itself. - Reply to this comment
- Our president wants to be "friends" with everyone -- sorry it doesn't work that way. This makes him look weak in the eyes of third world leaders and others. Because of this they are pushing him to find his limits. Gotta make a stand at some point.
Oh, lovegetpeace; everyone, and I mean everyone, is a hypocrite at one level or another. - Reply to this comment

- If the USA President is to make a stand at every point, then Americans would be at War with every nation in the world and this empire would not exist (and taking Israel with it).
Look at your Idol Republican Ex-President Bush, nobody in the world would listen to him just because of his Cowboy (Macho) stand you are advocating.
Sounds like you have been thru several ugly divorces already and you still do not understand why. And I understand it because Americans have the highest divorce rate in the world.

The scariest part is that people do not realize that if these same "protests" were going on here we would have the same "crackdown" by the government, military and local police. They would not stand by and let us destroy buildings and set buses and police vehicles on fire. There would be arrests and detentions and people would die. And if they thought they could slow such a movement by shutting down websites and the internet or disabling cell phone service, they would do exactly that. We may claim freedom and democracy but we too are under the governments thumb. And for those who are going to say we choose our Presidents and elected officials, think about it, when was the last time you saw an average middle class person running for a major office. It takes money, so only the rich get to play.

So do you imagine if we were TOLD that McCain won back in November by a margin of 62% to 36% there wouldn't be rioting in the streets?
I mean, come on; we riot because the Lakers win the NBA championship. - Reply to this comment

What is this guardian of the revolution in the whitehouse, trying to do? Let Iran's messes stay in Iran. Stop the foreclosures, create real jobs, repair education, healthcare and the infrastucture. Fix America! That's what he's supposed to be doing, not playing cat and mouse games with Iran and North Korea.

- I suggest that all Muslim countries of the world give equal rights to Gaays and all women, also to Jews and Christians, for starters, Then you may be on the road to having a real civilization.

- The Republicans wants is all to believe in God with a blind-eye. Well, Iran is a perfect example of what happens if we all just follow that Ideology.
