I think Obama's stated policies would spell economic disaster on a scale that will make our current problems seem like the good old days.
And yes I am very afraid of that.
You never stop wiggling, do you?
Obama opposed the war from the beginning and has never changed that.
Nor has he changed his position on a withdrawl timeline. He has only stated that that timeline may be modified depending on the conditions on the ground.
No responsible CIC would ever make an unconditional withdrawl policy.
7 1/2 years would correspond pretty closely withdrawl plan starting at the beginning of his Presidency. Do the math.
After what your boys did for the last 8 years?
Gee... let's reward failure... what a great idea.
pure genius....
NOT...
You can't even say it's that you're afraid of socialists anymore. Bush just announced the biggest socialist move in the history of this country.
we're ALL Democrats now.
McCain has turned overnight into a champion of regulation and government oversight of corporations and wall street; McCain is railing against tax breaks and coddling of oil companies; McCain just gave a speech in Michigan favorably quoting Franklin Roosevelt- My jaw hit the floor-, a republican trying to link himself to FDR.
The GOP is prentending that they don't know Bush, and neither bush nor cheney were invited to their convention
Chris really? I'm not a fan of George W. Bush but seriously , George W. Bush has an MBA from Harvard. and Obama has a Law degree from Harvard.
George W. Bush: A Who2 Profile
Obama by his own admission is an admitted, drinker, pot smoker, and cocaine user. He was so for most of his undergraduate time at Columbia. In his book, he even said the only reason he didn't use heroin is because his dealer could not get it. So Chris, if I apply your logic to Obama then I suppose by that logic Obama would be fried too yes?
yeah. that took real guts to stand up in the Illinois legislature and come out against a war he had no say in. i'm still awestruck. honest.
This is a big misconception, or rather an issue that seems to be misdunderstood. It does take guts to stand up and vote or speak out against a war in our country. Especially so, if you want a future in politics. Going 'against the troops', or against the army, or against 'security' can destroy your career, or bring its upward momentum to a halt.
So, while not the same thing as casting that vote in the Senate or the House, speaking out did carrying the chance of grave repercussions. Pointing this out is a valid point, but to use it in the way you did is misleading and inaccurate.

it takes no guts to second guess someone else's decision without bearing any responsibility.
It's not even remotely the same as casting a yea or nay vote that actually counts.
his career seems to have been made on his ability to deliver a speech and his opposition to the war.
he delivers a good speech, when the prompter's working. huzzah
I agree, I think it took tremendous courage to speak out against the war in Iraq when NO ONE else was doing it.

He's an intelligent man. That will be a refreshing change from Bush or McCain
A lot of us said that invading Iraq because of 9/11 was something like if the U.S. had invaded Mexico after Pearl Harbor.
It didn't take prescience... and it isn't second guessing.
Don't like the remark, as I said , many times in the past ray, prove me wrong, prove how Obama has gone against his own party on an issue on a consistant basis because the Bill or idea before him was the right thing to do? Wait, thats right he voted with his own party 97% of the time. Oh, I almost forgot, what did he say the other day when asked about his policy on the economy? I'm going to wait and see what George Bush does first. Told you before, the truth maybe be hard to hear, for you as an Obama supporter, and I understand that, but it's hardly stupid. Oh and guess what your retort to come, about him voting with George Bush 90% of the time, guess what? He's been in the Senate a bit longer than George Bush has been president, so that retort doesn't work on me. The real number for him is 77%. As for George Bush himself, vs. Obama as a republican hopefully we will never get the chance, but if he does, I wouldn't count on that if I were you.
He didnt say "I'm going to wait until I see what George Bush does first" He said he wanted to look at the entire issue before he said anything, this is smart. I dont want politicians giving me bullshit answers before they know all the facts which is what Mccain did because Mccain blabbed that he was against the bailout of AIG and then the next day and he said was for it because he didnt realize the consequences of pension loss.
and neither bush nor cheney were invited to their convention
man, you neocons just hate the fact that obama made the right call on your trillion dollar war for phantom wmd...
