The guy is a millionth of an inch thick and miles wide.
The simplest scratch and he disappears.
Considering that obamination Sr. already had a wife in Africa = were they ever married?
This may be some of the information he doesn't want seen - along with what his name was on the birth cert....
Did he acquire the two very Muslim/Arab names of Barrack and Hussein on his first visit to meet with his Kenya family - Muslims - who gave him the names? (He was, at the time, if we believe his writings, searching for his identity...and then, deciding he was black, he had to prove he was black enough...
What's the name on the BC, Barry?
Why do Democrats continue to believe militant Islam is driven by economic situations when Mohammad Atta and many of the other September 11th hijackers were middle-class college-educated Arabs.
Second, why is it the West's responsibility to "make sure that opportunities are" available in the Islamic world. It is an asinine statement.
Does he have an American BC?
Why does the question persist?
Even as I hope for some measure of peace and comfort to the bereaved families, I must also hope that we as a nation draw some measure of wisdom from this tragedy. Certain immediate lessons are clear, and we must act upon those lessons decisively. We need to step up security at our airports. We must reexamine the effectiveness of our intelligence networks. And we must be resolute in identifying the perpetrators of these heinous acts and dismantling their organizations of destruction.
We must also engage, however, in the more difficult task of understanding the sources of such madness. The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others. Such a failure of empathy, such numbness to the pain of a child or the desperation of a parent, is not innate; nor, history tells us, is it unique to a particular culture, religion, or ethnicity. It may find expression in a particular brand of violence, and may be channeled by particular demagogues or fanatics. Most often, though, it grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair.
We will have to make sure, despite our rage, that any U.S. military action takes into account the lives of innocent civilians abroad. We will have to be unwavering in opposing bigotry or discrimination directed against neighbors and friends of Middle Eastern descent. Finally, we will have to devote far more attention to the monumental task of raising the hopes and prospects of embittered children across the globechildren not just in the Middle East, but also in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and within our own shores.
He’s like a kid in a candy store thinking there is an endless supply and that it is just always there no matter how much he takes and since he is a geek he thinks he can give away an endless supply to the other kids so they will like him.
If you're POTUS, nothing should be taken off the table. You should never reveal your hand either. Obama once again making it abundantly clear why he's so dangerous to America's future. Undermining the military and devaluing our forces to third world status, is what the Dems seek and what would satisfy our enemies.
What worries me more than his lack of foreign policy experience is his lack of military experience. That’s where McCain really trumps him.
And the conquest of SPAIN???
Just what was it that made Indonesia “muslim lands”???
Similarly, leftists give jihadi's a break to get their weapons aboard our government, to destroy it, too.

He's told us that successfully dealing with Iran comes down to offering them a big enough incentive package. Words like "bribe", "extortion", and "appeasement" should never be used to describe policies of His Obamic Holiness. That's racist.
The difference would be that Bush requires some measure of accountability. I believe Obama would simply send money and let the tyrants have their way. Also, I believe Obama truly does not want the US to remain The world power that it is.
He previously remembered his grandfather teaching him the Pledge of Allegiance - - when he was 2 years old!
love that cover. It completely captures the essence of things.
I've talked about maintaining a residual force there to ensure that al Qaeda does not re-form in Iraq, that we're making sure that we are providing logistical support and potential training to Iraqi forces — so long as we're not training sectarian armies that are then fighting each other — to protect our diplomats, to protect humanitarian efforts in the region.
So, nobody's talking about abandoning the field.***
Obama is a flat out liar. He had previously said that a “COMPLETE” withdrawal would take approx 16 months and would begin the day he is sworn in.
