So us (the US) sending a destroyer to intercept North Koreas ship is govt propaganda?

What makes this whole thing comical is that the news headline read "Obama sends USS John McCain to intercept North Korea" but the 'USS' part was all the way to the left so it looked like "Obama sends John McCain to intercept N Korea". Well i thought it was funny.

Dictators like North Koreas dont care about whos big or small, they are crazy. Hitler thought he could take over the whole world, and by God he tried. Its not the fact that we cant stop him, its the fact that we dont want them to have to blow up one of our states to show that we can defeat N Korea

Sure he has changed the way that the world looks at us, it just came at the price of security. It came at the price of Capitolism. You name it. The man is hurting this country, most likely to the point of no return in my lifetime or my childrens.
If I was doing as little as him at my job I would have been fired before 1 month ended not 5. Remember he was preparing his plan of action for a year before he took office. He should have hit the ground running.

WAKE UP!

Obama has done a LOT in 5 months. He has seized unprecedented power for the federal government, especially the executive brach.

He totally hit the ground running. Unfortunately, he was running at light speed to the left. It worries me greatly that more people can't see that.

After the guy is 'given a chance' (1 year? 2 years?) he will have decimated the country's future.

It's happening right in front of your eyes and you think he's not doing anything!

Let me rephrase then: He has not done anything for the good of the Country which is what he was "hired" to do.

Here’s the real deal, first a revolution is coming, this is not “the sky is falling” it’s just the facts and Obama has helped to usher this revolution much quicker then if he never got elected. Really for the most part Obama is not the President, sure that’s his title, but he is not the one in charge, he is more of a puppet, or figure head, like the moron in Iran who got re-elected or selected, or what ever…

I don’t blame the democrats or liberals for any of this, hey they are doing what people want them to do, you know the ones who voted them all in office, the ones who show up at a polling booth not having a freaking clue who and why they are voting for someone other than a few sound bites, or a nice piece they read, because we all know you can believe sound bites, and can believe anything you read…

I don’t blame the republicans or conservatives either for the very same reason above. Let’s be serious and honest here, how many people who voted in the last election still remember 911? I bet less than 40% and that’s being extremely generous.

There is very few, I bet less than 5% of those serving in Washington that actually serve the people who actually elected them, the rest are in it for ONLY power and money screw everything and everybody else. They are all like many CEO’s who think short term 6 months to maybe 1 year and we know what happens in that situation, run the company straight into the ground like the people in Washington are running this country into the ground led by the puppet Obama.

There is no Constitution, it has been torn up by the puppet Obama, democrats and republicans and used as paper to wipe their *ss…

However, the ones to blame are mounting a revolution, the silent majority, and the regular people who are busy working, playing by the rules, and minding their own business. The ones that generally don’t go and vote because they figure the system is rigged anyway, much like Iran. Now their pissed off and ready to do something about this country’s worst president ever who is Obama. Mark my words, in history, many years from now, Obama will be known as the worst president who was ever elected in America’s history, he makes Carter look like a pretty damn good president, but when Obama is remembered as the worst president in America’s history the public at that time, when he was voted in, will also be known as the most ignorant bunch of American’s that ever lived because they allowed it to happen.

However that outlook could very well change with a modern revolution, and I really fear because of his arrogance that Obama may not make it the full 4 years. God knows I hate to see anything bad happen to anyone, especially to a president, but I am telling you if this puppet don’t put the brakes on some nut case is going to take him out and NOT because he is black, but because he is allowing the trashing of the Constitution and allowing the futures to be destroyed of our grandchildren and great grandchildren with his arrogant spending on stupid unneeded programs at this time.

This is not Obama’s fault, it is not the democrats fault, and it is not the republicans fault, it is the fault of the American citizens for allowing it to happen and only they, the American citizens can put a stop to this. Time to clean out Washington of ALL elected officials and replace them with new people that actually have values, know they work for US and will actually defend the Constitution…

I have no idea “what I am” I use to be republican but nobody represents my values anymore. I am just an American citizen who wants honest representation in Washington. Honestly and real values is all I ask, is that too much?

We really are improving our standing in the world.

Yesterday I read that the British are more than a tad miffed at us for sending 4 Gitmo detainees to Bermuda ( British territory ) as "refugees"

That is how we are going to get Gitmo closed down.
None of the states here want them, so we stamp refugee on their passports, and ship them to our ally's territories. Strong work

Next Puerto Rico is going to be getting a lot of "refugees" from the UK.

Does anyone recall when the media tried to sell the story that N Korea was just flexing it's mussels to let the world know "don't mess with us while we find a successor"

We will see if that "flex" was not the covert stretch behind the head cover, to slap us on the back of the head next month.

Are you the kind of person who gets annoyed by the wail of a fire alarm?

I swear I smell smoke. I'm just asking if I'm the only one. There are some of us who'd rather not wait for the flames. The smoke is getting thick. We ought to be doing something about it NOW.

Give the guy a chance to do what?

Battered women keep going back to their batterer because they believe that one day he will change.

How many black eyes and busted lips are the American peoples freedoms supposed to endure?

I know how you feel! It sure as hell shouldn't be too much to ask.

There is a lot of work to be done. This country will be returned to civility. Eventually.
