Michael Moore's open letter to Obama
Michael Moore has written an open letter to Pres. Obama. Here are a few of his points if you don't want to read the whole thing....
Do you really want to be the new "war president"? If you go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war president. Pure and simple. And with that you will do the worst possible thing you could do -- destroy the hopes and dreams so many millions have placed in you. With just one speech tomorrow night you will turn a multitude of young people who were the backbone of your campaign into disillusioned cynics.
I do have Gorbachev's number though. It's + 41 22 789 1662. I'm sure he could give you an earful about the historic blunder you're about to commit.
I know you know that there are LESS than a hundred al-Qaeda left in Afghanistan! A hundred thousand troops trying to crush a hundred guys living in caves? Are you serious? Have you drunk Bush's Kool-Aid? I refuse to believe it.
We the people still love you. We the people still have a sliver of hope. But we the people can't take it anymore. We can't take your caving in, over and over, when we elected you by a big, wide margin of millions to get in there and get the job done. What part of "landslide victory" don't you understand?
"No, we don't need health care, we don't need jobs, we don't need homes. You go on ahead, Mr. President, and send our wealth and our sons and daughters overseas, 'cause we don't need them, either."
When we elected you we didn't expect miracles. We didn't even expect much change. But we expected some

He makes a few good points, but I'm just not a big fan of Michael Moore. That's like his video about free health care. Ya, he talks a big game, but he never addressed any of the problems that it cause America right now. He has the idea, but not the solution. If you don't have the solution, then shut the .... up. We don't need to watch an hour video about what we already now.

Michael Douchebag Moore ain't saying anything BO doesn't already know. All who didn't vote for him already knew how he works. The warning signs were evident long before he was elected, but the blind followers were already reeled in at that point. They are now seeing BO's true colors.

The Yahoo article has something on Obama I never thought about but I believe it's true. He does look like Star Treks Spock. I guess if you see him whispering into something he's probably saying "Beam me up Scotty"!
I also noticed lately that the news media is falling out of love with him and it's about time. They are starting to report unfavorable stories now. I guess the honeymoon is over.
Michael Moore, what a waste of human flesh. He should not be allowed to eat- ever!
