COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- President Obama told Air Force Academy cadets Wednesday America was stronger and more respected around the world than ever before despite impending cuts to the nation's armed forces. The president delivered the commencement address to over 1,000 graduates at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo. "Around the world there is a new feeling about America," he told cadets. "There is a new confidence in our leadership.
"Today I think we can say with pride that America is stronger and safer and more respected in the world," Obama added.He noted the class of 2012 would be the first to "graduate into a world where no Americans are fighting in Iraq and where Usama bin Laden is no longer a threat to our country."

I agree with that. Another poster mentioned Dem crossover voters who wanted to shut out any conservative which I'm sure was a factor.
All candidates have shortcomings, as I'm sure you'll concede, but who are those who do not have major shortcomings? Rubio too young and inexperienced, ditto Paul Ryan. I could go on and it would be easy to cite shortcomings for any potential candidate. Even Ronald Reagan had shortcomings. Abraham Lincoln is my favorite historical figure and he is pilloried with regularity for his shortcomings on FR.

There is a new confidence in our leadership!
Certainly not in your leadership which is ZERO .
How any sane human being can vote for this man is a mystery.
He has done more damage to America in 3 years then islam’s war on us for the past 15 years has done .........
bet that went over like a lead balloon
Don’t be so sure.
The Air Force Academy now has a site on campus for Wiccans to practice their “religion”. Then there are the pervert homosexuals on campus.
The progressives have been progressively destroy Americas once fine military.
I wonder how obama was received by the crowd, that was in essence, held captive to listen to him.
Barry is likely green with jealousy about how much the Military loves Bush and cannot help himself but to put Bush down in front of them. He is actually a demon in disguise, one filled with jealousy, pride and unholy contempt. As a Christian with the gift of spiritual discernment I can literally, at times, see and hear it. It is detectable on a spiritual level much of the time.
nobama is such a feckless, preening tool.
What a disgraceful, complete A$$.
Please, God - give our country another chance.
“The sad thing is that in the short run Obama’s probably right.”
No, not even in the short run. America is NOT safer, stronger or more respected since BHO’s been CIC.
But he knows this - and is smirking about it.
Can hardly wait for this scumbag’s impeachment, indictment, trial, and visit to olde sparky!
The "dumbass" post of the month. There is so much COS in your comment that bandwidth restrictions defies a detailed response.
Zer0 would never get the security clearance to do anything in the military. I remember the questionnaire I filled out to get my top secret clearance. I heard from my neighbors who got visits from government agents to look into my background. They said the agents were very polite and asked a lot of questions. Fortunately, most of my neighbors had their lawns mowed by me, and had lots of good things to say. What they found out about Zer0 would have been grounds for a general discharge. What a squirrel Zer0 is.
What an ASS!
Florida does not have open primaries. That is where Mittens got the surge and where Newt sat on his laurels of the SC win. The reality is that too many people still watch network TV and Mitt’s Super PACs knew it and used it to bamboozle the out of touch electorate.
It always goes back to education. With that I’ll add that some of the most educated people I know couldn’t pour piss out of their boot with directions on the heel.
No, he makes trash look good.

mitt did not get a majority of votes until everyone else quit... the MAJORITY of primary voters voted for someone else... and NOT mitt.

Thank you. I agree.
Kenyan shantytown trash.
