American WANKER!!!!!

Is this a reflection on politicians in general or a smear attempt at Obama?

I'd say politics in general. The first thing I thought of is the "Gov. Bush vs. Pres. Bush" debate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjJAIuQz9D8

So you see a criticism of all politicians as a reflection but a criticism of Obama as a smear? shocking.

I have yet to see any sign of intelligence at the linked website. EVER.

You mean like a "compassionate conservative?"

Gotcha.

The fact that American "Thinker" only comes out with these pieces during a centrist administration doesn't strike you as a little odd? Oh, of course not. And the article title "Is Obama a Prince among men" isn't the slightest bit biased. No no no, just us loony LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! as usual.

Dear Mr. Socialist Canadian,

Obama is not centrist.

Doublek111: Obama is not centrist.

Yeah, he's a little right of center with his policy but I guess that's what passes for centrist these days.

Or, if something horrific happens, you promise to go after the people who attack you, and then invade a country that had no connections? That kind of action?

Dear American,

Yes he is.

Doublek111: Obama is not centrist.

He's a centrist only by American standards. Most of the world would consider him well to the right.

f*ck off, submitter.

This Obama guy scares me, and we must do something before he implements something I we don't like.

He's conned you all, he's going to turn it all into a communist haven! So says the small vocal minority worried about their own offshore accounts.

He's been in office a scratch over two months. After 4 years voters gave George Bush a "mandate" despite lots of information that his first 4 years was less than stellar.

The right wing whine is not an entirely awe inspiring vintage.

Dear douchebag,

We all know that the global political scale is much more broad than the American political scale. It is not factually incorrect to refer to an American as a centrist or a leftist, when it is obviously a reference to the American scale. It does not matter that he is right of center on a broader scale, because he is not being measured on that scale.

Now, I know that you are really excited about the new things you are learning in Political Science 101 this semester, and that you just want to share that new knowledge with everyone. I'm sure you went through the same phase when you first learned that the word "liberalism" can refer to something other than a left of center political philosophy in the United States (again, left on the American scale, not global scale). But just because you learned something new does not mean that you have to show up in threads and be a major douche by deliberately using a different measure to tell someone they are "wrong" when you know damn well that they are not using that measure. If the only contribution you have to the thread is to invent an error, you might as well not post. You're just wasting your time. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Everyone

If you know I am so stupid then there is no way I can understand the impressive power and girth of your argument. But I knew that ahead of time, guess you should next time too ;)

Doublek111: power and girth

I impressed your mother with these very attributes last night.

C'mon, GOP, don't be scared by Obama. It's not like he made a speech about spending political capital. That would be the mark of a man who is intent on abusing his power.

Isn't he a socialist, or was it a fascist, or maybe it was a communist.. well, one way or another I'm sure it was something awful.

"Voters who fell for the ruse only now are seeing his dark socialist side, financed by debt that inevitably will lead to confiscatory taxation. Now, he moves with alacrity to pass revolutionary budgets, establish programs, seize assets, and never let a crisis go to waste."

That's a near perfect description of what's happened so far.

I couldn't be happier with the job he's done so far. I only hopes he keeps it up.

Eddie Adams from Torrance: Doublek111: Obama is not centrist.

He's a centrist only by American standards. Most of the world would consider him well to the right.

And most of the world is a mess.

All in all, I prefer a president who uses "The Prince" as a guide as opposed to the last one who used "1984".

Your mother is a liberal and enjoys a good thick shaft?

I feel so relieved that Obama, the House and the Senate spent so many months reading and discussing the $789 billion spending bill!

Agree, this is not a smear on Obama per se. He did what most politicians do, lie to get elected. Why anyone expected centrists tendencies out of someone who chose to be a community activist out of law school, is beyond me.

He complained about Bush's 2+ trillion in added debt over 8 years - now he is working on 5X that much in the decade.

He talked about fiscal reform and making changes, he talked about holding Congress accountable for pork. The bills he signed are full of pork galore and now he's telling us that some earmarks are a "good thing". There is no such thing as a good earmark, by definition.

It's not really his fault, people just got stupider to the point of voting for unicorns and rainbows. People believed he would bring them gifts while being fiscally responsible. He can't be fiscally responsible because he knows that the more money he spends, the more popular power he gets in return. The man is a political careerist, his entire life is defined not by wise guidance and stewardship of America and her resources, but rather achieving political power at all cost. That's why when the heat is on, he goes into campaign mode - its all he knows.

We've finally reached the nadir of a long road where people have been groomed for nothing but political office. In both parties.

He beat me to it.

After seizing power, he should impose his agenda quickly and ruthlessly before his subjects realize what he is doing and have time to react."

But all his public appearances over the past few weeks means he's overexposed, right? We can still complain that he's too public while complaining he's being too secretive, right?

What sort of retarded person who would profess to be leader has not read "The Prince"? That book is absolute truth and has as much value now as it did in the time of the Borgias.

You could argue that the more the government lets out, the more they are keeping from you.

But that tends to get into tin-foil hat territory. Granted, it's hard to imagine government doing something without some ulterior motive.

"Voters who fell for the ruse only now are seeing his dark socialist side, financed by debt that inevitably will lead to confiscatory taxation."

Liar. Obama promised 95% of us tax cuts.

Take that, logic!

You really don't know what people voted for.

Well, this thread is off to an AWESOME start... :-/

The word snail is a common name for almost all members of the molluscan class Gastropoda that have coiled shells in the adult stage.

OMG, I just posted some random text and I've decided it applies to Obama!

I, for one, would welcome a liberal Shock Doctrine. Too bad Obama's not actually implementing one.

I do not, however, appreciate links to American Thinker [sic] full-retardity.

So, you are criticizing the slow pace at which "change" is coming. I see.

Machiavellian seems better than intellectually lazy.
Step in the right direction if it's true.

I don't even know where to start.

Bored Horde: centrist administration

BWAHAHAHA... oh stop it please.

It was fortold by the scattering of grain into the wind, and the measurment of where the grain fell in relation to where the grain was tossed. This is how the Gods choose their fate. This is how Obama chooses ours.

Obama recognizes that all decisions must be decided this way; in order to align himself favourable in the eyes of both Heaven and Earth.

On selecting his cabinate, he drew from his allies as well as his enemies equally. By doing this, he ensures that both will align themselves to himself, if for no other reason than his interests become their self-preservation. His death is their death, but never visa-versa.

Finally, Obama uses creativity and timing in manufacturing our inevitable demise. The current generation is of no use to him, as we have already been tainted by free-will and existing knowlage. We must be reset, collectivly.

This generation may grow to resent him sending us off to die, but our children and their children, having no History to draw from, will be born into ignorance and loyalty only to Him.

WWII was a poor choice of examples, considering that America didn't join the war til '41

/or maybe you were being sarcastic and I missed it - that happens

GAT_00: Or, if something horrific happens, you promise to go after the people who attack you, and then invade a country that had no connections? That kind of action?

Don't forget you have to lie your way into it or else the American public won't be so keen on stomping through the desert to fulfill some neoconservative wet dream.
