Money quote, at the end: But I think that, in times of war, when troops are headed into battle, Americans would rather hear "smoke 'em out" and "dead or alive" than a Noble Peace Prize preamble.

Obama wants to make sure that the Norwegians who awarded him a Peace Prize don't get upset with him for fighting a war.

Obama is more comfortable in singing Kumbia to his enemies rather than see them humiliated. We should all be citizens of the world and get along. He can’t stand that somebody from one culture surrenders to somebody of another another culture. It goes against his Marxist grain and teaching that states that the US is the imperial warlord of the world spreading capitalism’s false consciousness of economic winners and loser to ethnically pure cultures. The only real enemy is Bush which he has no qualm to bash at every opportunity. The cadets didn’t give Obama the full opportunity to soar with elevated rhetoric, to make their heads spin. Their heads will be dizzy enough trying to figure out the contradictions in the speech.

I wish it could be done, but there is no way to impeach him.

Arjay's right. What would it take to get a Dem controlled House to impeach The One? Anything those weasel tyrants would actually care about would be so over the top that it would sound like conspiracy theory nuttery for me to even speculate. I'm talking the only stuff that would come to light and make them ditch him is stuff that would prompt a "pack your bags or else" phone call from the Joint Chiefs. Anything less would be rationalized a la Clinton.

“I see firsthand the terrible wages of war.”

The terrible wages of war that he is referring to is how horrible it is the way we treated the the 9 11 terrorists, keeping them in prison for so long, subjecting them to harsh treatment. It is just inhuman.

“I agree - worse than Clinton”

Do we have consensus among the community that even Hillary would have been better?
