Not I! Obama and the rest of the Rats have slandered our troops for way too long.

Every time Obama gets faced with the question on prosecuting "W" for alleged "crimes" (there were none BTW), he always avoids facing up to the fact we still have a backlog of war criminals from the Viet Nam War to indict, prosecute, convict and hang ~ and virtually all of them are Leftwingtards like Jane Fonda, Senator Kerry, etc.

As long as Obama refuses to address "that problem" he really shouldn't be talking about the imaginary bugaboos of the Lunatic Left.

That’s a mistake. If Barack Obama succeeds, god knows what he’ll do in his second term, with no need to worry about re-election.

Conservatives should seek to make sure he fails, not cheer-lead him on as David Brooks and his ilk would have us do.

I will give him the same respect they gave Pres Bush. I will also follow the ny slimes when they said that dissent is the greatest form of patriotism during Pres Bushs admin, I bet they are singing a different tune now

For eight years, we’ve been told that President Bush is:

- illegitimate;
- stole the election;
- Hitler;
- BushHitler;
- a Nazi;
- a fascist;
- BushCo;
- Shrub;
- an alcoholic;
- a cocaine addict;
- an idiot;
- an evil genius;
- a poor-person killer;
- a warmonger;
- a kicker of old ladies;
- a religious fanatic;
- a war criminal;
- Chimp;
- Chimpy McHitler;
- Chimpeached;

When The Left apologizes or is punished for eight years of slander, libel and sedition, THEN I’ll think about stopping personal attacks about The Obama, The Messiah, The One (piss be upon him).

But on Inauguration Day, our approach will change—as a candidate becomes our commander-in-chief.

In other words, "we sold out".

Yep. I told Lanny Davis, on the Michael Medved show, that I would be quite comfortable giving 0bama the same amount of respect and consideration that his side has given President Bush for the last 8 years. I am sickened that 0bama will be the CIC. He has NO respect for our military.

You're absolutely right. Dissent is the greatest form of patriotism. What's good for the geese...

And neither do the majority of the American Sheep - They the ones who voted for The One (piss be upon him).

If anyone needs proof that Americans don't really support their troops, just show them the election returns. A country that claims to support us, doesn't give someone like The One (his name be pissed) this kind of power.

My second son is thinking of enlisting—he’s a chef who needs work and thinks that the military will always need cooks. I refuse to let him because I think that Obama has no understating or respect for the military and will put any warm body in a tank if that’s what he needs. No way am I letting my son salute a man who’s learning to salute this very weekend. He may be commander-in-chief, but that doesn’t mean he knows squat about the military.
