well I would probably do the repairs my self don't trust mechanics always say I had to replace this and that and when you ask them for the parts , it's I threw then in the bin and then charge a arm and a leg . The above ALSO includes Obama, and Other's.

But is'nt the treasury the ones that make most of the policy over there for your economy ? . I spose I will conceed that maybe he should fire all those banker from goldman sacks that now run it as it was those bastas that stole everyones money so I guess he has failed on that account .

Glenn... The American people, hiring Obama, to FIX THE MESS - Is the same as a CEO firing the Old (Bad) Accountant, and hiring a New Accountant to FIX The Mess. After 6 YEARS all this Accountant (sic), and his supporters say is ' Look at the mess we inherited', we can't perform miracles'. He was hired to FIX IT, and is has been shown to be incompetent. You fire him, and get someone who is competent. P.S. Think of your Auto Mechanic saying this to you. You would also Fire this Incompetent Idiot. Wouldn't you?

Lets take Nixon. yes he did some dastardly deeds. But he open up a dialog with China. Has Obama done that? I will take you on point by point. Has Obama opend up a dialog with another country? NO he hasnt. That was my point. The Soviet Union was stupid. So we did send stingers to the rebles who shot down helicopters. The Soviets had more on there plate then Afghanistan. Try thinking of Poland and other satelite countrys trying to break free of the yoke. Bush SR did defeat Iraq through a coalition. His son was an dolt for going back . Clinton has admitted he could have killed Bin laden but didnt. So he set up 911. I expect a president to lead. Obama dosent lead he follows the current popularity poles. If you think he is suck a great leader make him a citiezen of Oz and let him lead you then. I think he stinks to high heaven. [/quote]Old James |

Lets take Nixon. yes he did some dastardly deeds. But he open up a dialog with China. Has Obama done that? How can he do something that has already been done ? Lets take Reagan, He did things I dont like either. His stars wars BS was enough to lead to the collaspe of the Soviet Union. And then he had a dialog with Russia. Russia was a victim of there own stupidity fighting a 11 year war in Afghanistan and that had more to do with it's collapse than Reagan , he only help the war go on longer than it would have had he not sent the Mujahideen the rockets to shoot down the Russian helicopter gun ships and planes . Lets take Clinton next.His moral terpitude sucked but he did manage to get a surlpus in our economy. Clinton did not have the GFC to screw the economy and have a recession that was almost as bad as the great depression which took a world war to fix so if he did cut deeply into the budget and produce a surplus you would have been in more trouble than you are now Lets next take Bush. He inherited Clintons failed forieng policy which led to 911. So his father wasn't in charge during the golf war then ok . Why didn't Jnr know what the bankers where doing and put a stop to it , as i herd what was going on and knew 2 yrs before the skit hit the fan . Then there was the Iraq thing and not getting Binladen . To me that is a complete fail . 911 could have been stopped if he had listen'd to the security forces and what they where telling him But you keep listening to FOX ,CNN and all the other news services that have there own agenda's So who do you think would be able to take over and work the miracles you expect Obama to have been able to do after such a mess . I am seriously curios about that ?

He's way better than Reagan, Nixon, Clinton or Bush tho. I think Obama cant even start to fill any of those forner Prseidents shoes. He is an empty suite way ove his head. Lets take Nixon. yes he did some dastardly deeds. But he open up a dialog with China. Has Obama done that? Lets take Reagan, He did things I dont like either. His stars wars BS was enough to lead to the collaspe of the Soviet Union. And then he had a dialog with Russia. Has Obama done anything like that? Lets take Clinton next.His moral terpitude sucked but he did manage to get a surlpus in our economy. Has Obanma done that? Lets next take Bush. He inherited Clintons failed forieng policy which led to 911. Yes We needed to get Binladen. No we didnt need to go to Iraq. The economy crapped out by the politicians from both sides of the house easing banking restrictions on what they could do. Wonder boy Obama won the elction saying he would be transparent and fix the mess in DC. YEAH right. He hasnt done didlly squat in 6 years. The economy still sucks, We have both domestic and forgien problems he cant seen to solve or dosent care about untill public opinon sways him to make a speech. He is so way over his head its pathetic. And he surrounds himself with idiots who dont have a clue either. Obama is going to make Hoover look like a genius. [/quote]Old James |

That is easier said than done. Quite true. RE: Biden as President. A friend of mine said a couple of years ago "If Biden was President. We would still be marching into Hell. But... At least we would be laughing all the way". Probably some truth in this.

I sit here and have to think ummmm 4 years ago a man called Tony Abbot took over as the head of the Liberal/National Party and i see the same things now going on it the states as what happened here . First the accusations of curruption , which is now backfiring on the LNP after they call for a ROYAL Commision lie's told about policy's , which has also now been shown to be B/S And we are now at war and this twit was the first leader to put his hand up as he is not very popular and needs a war to say he has big cahona's..... Lie's about the budget and since he came in it's blown out faster than the old mob So be very careful what you wish for you just may end up with another man with big cahona's just like J.W.B and we all know what happened with that one .

In other words, screwed if you do/screwed if you don't. Are the shrubs that intend to replace them any good or just more of the same? Well, knowing USA politics, I would have to say that it is more of the same, at least among the group that are likely to get elected. Enjoy the show you went off to watch. It is probably more intelligent that most all of what happens in Washington D.C., etc. |
