Obama goes first in a few minutes. He's speaking at the rotunda of the National Archives (you think we could get Nicholas Cage on that birth certificate thingey?) on his Gitmo policy and other man-caused calamities.
Vice President Cheney gets the rebuttal time. He's speaking at the American Enterprise Institute around 10:45 a.m. EDT.

Hussein sounds like Oprah, touchy, feeble, and childlike.So true. Vice President Cheney should follow up his speech with a call to 0_bama to debate this issue face to face. Of course Pres__ent 0_bama will refuse and it will serve to highlight further how weak he is.
To: Roccus
B. Obama, ...its (the Constitution) is a flawed document.... I'm sure he thinks likewise of The Bible.

To: PerConPat
I was mistaken about the Senate vote on closing Gitmo as being a ploy by Obama to have it both ways, i.e., he tried to close it but the Senate was the bad cop and would not allow it. I have changed my mind. This guy is so thin skinned that he will respond to any criticism in this way. He takes responsibility for nothing. He blames Bush and others for everything.
Now he must make this political theater to respond to the criticism from the Left. He wants it both ways again.

Anyone here remember Lynn Stewart and the harm she brought to America. Yes! Someone mentioned, yesterday, that there is a possibility of terrorists in prisons on US soil being able to control happenings both inside and outside the prisons.
They don't need to escape in order to cause harm. Mob bosses and drug lords organize crimes from within prison.

Obama goes first in a few minutes. He's speakingWhine, whine, whine. Every screw up Oboma has ever made is always Bush's fault. It's really getting old.
I'll bet up until the very day he was affermatived into the presidency, he blamed his mother for everything, too.
Oboma is such a whiner!
To: linn37
Now this bozo claims he was never for releasing the torture photos.....oh boy.Good. Gad. Wow. Paging Dr. Krauthammer...I'd love his opinion on this performance, and not just on the politics.

To: ExTexasRedhead
I agree - people are angry at what they (correctly) view as a complete disconnect between themselves and the political elites, and, moreover, at the utter
contempt those elites have for the opinions and concerns of ordinary people.
This includes some Democrats as well as Republicans, and increasingly, independent voters, all of whom: want their country back. They want the schools to start teaching - and stop indoctrinating - their children. They want America to make and build things again. They want the government to stop telling them what they can drive and buy and eat. They want politicians to stop taxing and spending their money on things and ideas they detest. They want the government to close the borders and stop subsidizing illegal aliens and criminal behavior. They've had it up to here.
And now, they need a voice, and a leader.
