When he falls off a cliff it will be a “turning point”.

“there are no guarantees” is Obamaspeak for “ I don’t know what the hell I am doing and I will say this again a few weeks from now when whatever I am supposed to be doing fails”

Geesh

The *O* is just finishing up his presser, and said that the Indian Prime Minister said “If the world used the same amount of power the US does, we would have melted already”.
Of course *O* agreed. grr

Obama also mentioned “AIG guarantees” as an example of how guarantees don't always “work out”.

HUH?

OK, now much of the outrage at AIG was due to AIG being used as CONDUIT to foreign banks.

Much of the outrage, among US taxpayers was due to U.S. Taxpayer money being sent to foreign banks.

Now? Now Obama signs on to an international deal to give U.S. Taxpayer money to: FOREIGN COUNTRIES!

Obama says the opposite of what he does.

I can guarantee one thing myself. If the American citizens don’t make a stand very soon, we will no longer have our republic.

Obama is selling it out daily. No wonder THE WORLD loves him.

Turning point

Is that term equal to GW's "Mission Accomplished"?

So in other words he said it was great, but might not accomplish anything? Sounds like a Husseinism.

But he cautioned, "There are no guarantees."

That's BS.

He guarantees to shove more socialism down our throats.

THAT'S guaranteed.
