David Brooks - Republicans Will Vote For Obama

[p61guy]

Yup.. If you say stupid things you will end up on Youtube!!

[CorrosionX3]

So.... are you regretting it yet?

[Tony1130]

I am a Libertarian and Obama is a puppet.

[Delta4ms]

I want to vote for David Brooks for President.

[hookalakah]

"The Obamacons — that’s to say, conservatives hot for Barack- – justify their decision to support a big-spending big-government Democrat with the most liberal voting record in the Senate by “hoping” that he doesn’t mean it, by “hoping” that he’ll “change” in office...

The “change” we’ll get isn’t hard to discern: An expansion of government, an increase in taxes, a greater annexation of the dynamic part of the economy by the sclerotic bureaucracy, a reduction in economic liberty.." --Mark Steyn

[Calsummersishere]

VEDDY VEDDY INTERESTING!

Why and when did conservative pundits abandon Obama? What do they think he lied about? Something doesn't seem kosher here!

[MikeJames6]

David Brooks is always pandering to the left. He calls himself a conservative yet every liberal is better than any conservative. David I have known conservatives, conservatives are my friends you sir are NO conservative!

[DefCon1966]

Brooks is a RINO period, his head is so far up Barry's ass he needs a snorkel to breathe and mercerjohn, your a raging liberal that wouldnt vote for any republican so your words are hollow. The GOP never had you nor I suspect want you.

[Naviculaie]

I think David Brook's popularity is due to the fact that he's a Conservative who can complete a sentence without devolving into "God" and "War"

[kipptumor]

@Naviculaie Brooks stated a telling fact on Charlie Rose this week. The teabaggers are against educated people. They want everyone out of congress and yet, they have nobody to put up as their leader. It certainly isn't Palin, unless the Teabaggers want to just be Republicans. They might as well be, but I'm not sure they want to be labeled as such - they think they are on to something new here called being "pissed-off". Yeah - that's never happened before.

[yahazif]

David Brooks is a clown. He is a "Conservative" whose popularity is primarily due to his appeal to Liberals. Just scan the David Brooks videos. He is the commentator that Liberals always hold up as "the Conservative who disagrees with the Conservatives." So here we have a video where David Brooks gives his support to Obama. Yawn.. Can anyone find a video where David Brooks favors a Conservative over a Liberal? Let me know if you ever find one.

[kipptumor]

@yahazif Come on - You have to play fair here. Brooks is more conservative than liberal by far - even though you can tell he's just going along for the ride sometimes ;)

[yahazif]

Show me a video where Brooks comes out strongly for a conservative over a liberal. Just one.

[kipptumor]

@yahazif Whoa dude! I'm not going to play your game. I watch Brooks on the television all the time and he is the lone voice of the conservative point of view more often than not. "More often than not" meaning that, yes, he has supported conservative views. Man! Don't get so F'n testy. You are NO FUN.

[yahazif]

@kipptumor - i.e. you can't find one :D

[kipptumor]

@yahazif Yeah - okay, fine. You got it! No - I am only pointing out that whenever a "conservative" happens" to accept things that happen the way they do in the real world they get attacked from the kooks on the - Man - I can't say "the right" because these people seem to be from the F'n moon. Yeah - Brooks is a commie lib, everyone!

[guineapig1234]

Yea I said it and everyone is pissed because its the hard to swollow truth.

Well I'll say it again, Obama is destroying the country. He makes Bush look Jewish when it comes to fiscal finances.

[mindfodder]

Seriously, you have no clue what is going to destroy this country. You've got your loyalties elsewhere and that is obviously influencing your opinion. You're just some guy posting on Youtube under the name guineapig1234. You have nothing to offer except rehashes of whatever you might have heard from whatever media outlet you get your info from. Maybe you should go to Washington and offer some advice.

[guineapig1234]

No sir I have more of a clue than the morons running our country into the ground. Printing "Magic Money" leads to worthless money, Look up hyper-inflation if you don't know what im talking about.

[guineapig1234]

This is why Obama is bankrupting our country.

DeviantFormula

I aints gots no job because I havent found one, but I donts really care to work becauses I already get a paycheck. Obama is my hopes and dreams cuzz he promises me more welfare checks! Why work when you can rely on the government? Why even go to school...just drop out and become dependent! Obama '08

[19770326]

to guineapig1234,

Ur name says it all.

Obama 08-16

Obama forever...bitch

[guineapig1234]

We will see how much everyone likes him when the dollar aint worth toilet paper. Obama spends like Bush on speed.

[mercerjohn]

I voted only Republican...straight ticket..all my life until Obama. I voted for him and will again!!!!!

[ab1tchslap]

Don't vote for him again!

[mercerjohn]

hmmm...what are the words I am looking for? Oh yeah, Fuck and you, Fuck you! I will likely spend the rest of my life as a straight ticket democrat if the Republicans keeps holding up ignorant dipshits like Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck as the standard bearers of the party. I want nothing to do with a party that holds complete fools like those in high esteem.

[ab1tchslap]

Would you vote for Obama if Ron Paul was the republican candidate?

[mercerjohn]

I would vote for Mickey Fucking Mouse if Ron Paul was the Republican candidate.  Ron Paul is a political joke as are his over-bonged, conspiratorial, paranoid, delusional, sociopathic supporters.

[ab1tchslap]

Ron Paul isn't a political joke. That's like saying Milton Friedman is an economic joke. What's so funny about his views?

[kipptumor]

@ab1tchslap Actually I would. Paul should run as what he is: A Libertarian.

[ab1tchslap]

@kipptumor Are you talking to me? I don't know what you're responding to.

[kipptumor]

@mercerjohn Whoa! Calm down, man. Palin isn't even being taken seriously by the REPUBLICANS! The press are assholes 100% of the time, no matter who is in power. Don't worry. She is popular only because she hasn't made a whole lot of television appearances lately. The more America sees of Palin, the more they will have that same feeling as they do after eating anything from Hardee's.

[yahazif]

Good and Leave

[demilovatofficial]

shut the h#ll up i do what i want

[ogersteiner]

FLIP FLOPPER BIGGER THAN JOHN KERRY is JOHN MCCAIN THE SIDEKICK. LETS GET OFF THE DOUBLE TALK EXPRESS JOHN, JOE AND SARAH. I am a White Man and I am just baffled why my fellow countrymen cant see through this McCain/Palin Joe "the plummer" facade. I refuse to believe that the majority of Americans are dumb. Something else is causing this ignorance. Vote Obama/Biden for Change we need and deserve.

[feeknocks]

obama and mccain are the same shit

[DeviantFormula]

So the new presidential requirement is: the "ability to perceive" or "respect"?

Holy crap, I'M QUALIFIED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT TOO! I can even provide a factual birth certificate!

[DaHonestAbe]

Oh God how I miss Tim Russert.

[SDPBMX]

Its simply not fair that Tim Russert isn't here during this time in American history. He would have absolutely loved covering this election and done a service to the American people in his reporting. RIP Tim.

[CitizenMother]

"In an interview with The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg at New York's Le Cirque restaurant to unveil that magazine's redesign, Brooks decried Palin's anti-intellectualism and compared her to President Bush in that regard."

This is David Brooks who mocked people who were horrified by Palin, saying we'd all been to Tuscany and didn't like Wal-Mart. He's speaking from Le Cirque. He and Bill Kristol are priceless when they pretend to understand the people.

Palin is now a cancer with lipstick. Sweet.

[allfury1]

well this is old, but funny enough it's actually coming true.

hahaha you lose.

Plus this is part of a larger interview and I bet some cro magnon just cringes when the word "intellect" comes up ...kind of an alien concept eh?

[tomitstube]

lol RINO would seem apt. David Brooks seems too thoughtful and intelligent to be a neo-con. He doesn't yell or demonize to make a point! I'm waiting for him to endorse Obama like Colon Powell did. I'll bet he's secretly voting for Obama.

That's right, you fringe righties like Palin and Bush just keep purging the Republican party of moderates.

McSame/Failin?

Nope. It's Obama/Biden.

P. S. RINO is "Republican In Name Only". Come on over to the left, it's the new center.

[DeviantFormula]

I aints gots no job because I havent found one, but I donts really care to work becauses I already get a paycheck. Obama is my hopes and dreams cuzz he promises me more welfare checks! Why work when you can rely on the government? Why even go to school...just drop out and become dependent! Obama '08

[tomitstube]

Uhhmm yeah good one, racial stereotypes, how original, good for you! So tell us deviant dumbass, how much does it suck to be an imperceptive backwards thinking racist right now?

A black man in the White House. Must be more than your shorted out recepters can handle right now. Gee, you must be close to snapping even, ahh the angry neo-con cracker is back. Welcome back loser. The next eight years will be just grand won't they? To think, 4 yrs ago, it looked so good for you.

[madisonhack]

I love sticking my finger in the eyes of these racist dumbasses (talking to you DeviantFormula), but I don't think I could have done a better job than tomistube just did. Good job, comrade. Always remember, they are irrelevant...'08 was a LANDSLIDE victory; millions of WHITE, SENSIBLE PEOPLE VOTED FOR A BLACK MAN TO BE POTUS. Sit on that one, Deviant Dumbass.

[Panamaschild]

Damn I wish Tim was still around!

[junkie4vids]

LOLOLOLOL @ Brooks

Yes, how can you NOT respect Obama's option of inflating your tires to resolve the energy crisis? LOLOL

Brooks dipping into the communal funny veggies again.

[lees20022]

This is Operation Chaos. Rush Limbaugh's baby.

Republicans were told to support Obama to bring down Hillary. Once the tides were turned and Obama was far ahead in the polls, Limbaugh had us vote for Hillary to extend the Democrat nomination and create dissention in their ranks.

As you see now, it worked. Millions of Hillary supporters are not voting for Obama and their convention is already setting up to be a fiasco.

David Brooks was in on it. He is so anti-Obama now

[blkskin1]

thats why I see pill heads(oxycontin) the same as coke heads...soon to self-destruct

[anonxftw]

Care to revise your thesis?

[bluesrunnerdog]

Does McCain go to church? I never hear him talk about that subject!

[lees20022]

All Republicans know that McCain is a longtime member of North Pheonix Baptist Church. You never hear about it because they are not political and non-controversial.

Unlike Obama's church which promotes politics in their congregation and spouts racial hatred and anti-American Marxist insanity.

[matman1987]

i am a Republican and i will vote for obama

[WHOGIVESEGGS]

yay!!!

[lafemmefidele]

@matman1987 I am Republican, and I'm for Obama!

[stafflvr]

@matman1987 How'a all that hope and change working for you now?

[theobamaman]

I will vote for Obama. I am a lifetime Republican , a Republican turned ObamaCAN!!. Obama4myLife!!.

I never thought I would ever vote for a Democrat.

[enomarekim]

Are you insane, look up the global poverty act. bush sucks because he is a regular democrat. No child left behind = More federal control of education is a democrat idea. preemptive war is a democrat idea. more taxes=democrats. Fuck Obama and his globalist ideas, he wants more troops in afghanistan! you people are idiots, obama and McCain would both be 4 more years of Bush. Bush is a neocon. Neocon = Democrat. Look outside the box and vote for Bob Barr or Chuck Baldwin this year.

[therobba]

GO Obama

[ver506]

Good one Tim! LOL....that was funny but it's sad that he's dead now. I wonder if he knows who will be president in 2008. RIP Tim Russert. Yeah, and i don't think that what David Brooks said is true anymore, with 5 months to go. Go Obama!!!!

[MNtwins565]

Barack Obamah is a terrorist

[zee339]

you're an idiot. you're so dumb, you probably think the americans were insurgents in the american revolution

[MNtwins565]

weren't they?

[judmeffer]

"Barack Obamah is a terrorist"

Do an internet search on Odingo.

Obama supported Odingo's campaign and both of their campaigns used the slogan "change".

Odingo's agenda was to impose oppressive Islamic fundamentalist law on all Kenyans.

[8data]

david brooxs is the biggest douchebag in us history

man, i cant thinx of a bigger joxe than this man

everything absurd about his generation

oh well, what a masterful politcal mind

[zee339]

exaggerate alot?

[baronmorris]

Russert sees everything within the old political paradigm (and ratings, and his pumpkin-head ego). His disparaging statement that "it's a calculated political move within the Obama campaign" to actually listen and relate to alternate (ie, conservative) perspectives, shows he does not get it. Obama wants to be the President not just of those who elect him, but of all Americans.

It's called integrity, Tim Russert. Don't slap your clumsy labels on it.

Peace.

[JimmyFormerMarine]

No. 1 qualification for President is demand unconditional surrender from the enemy. Open up a can of whoop ass and take the fight to them.

[JoshGood28]

I'm a republican and I love my country the Goddamn United States of Goddamn America. Yes We Can!!!!

[baronmorris]

Bless you, JoshGood28. ;-)

Hell to the Yes, We Can, & We Are, & We Will!

[JimmyFormerMarine]

Yeah, like Republicans are going to vote for a 20 year member of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's "God Damn America" Church. Yeah, that really makes a lot of sense.

[terridunne]

Sure they like Obama he is so much easier for gop to beat him.

[etsneroj]

Exactly the opposite is true. McCain's biggest vulnerability is that many of the true-believers on the right don't want to vote for him and may not show up on election day. If Hillary is McCain's opponent, that will change. They will turn out in droves because their hatred for her far outweighs their dissatisfaction with McCain. David Brooks, by the way, is not one of "them." He's just a tad right of center.

[Overcritical]

What a great democracy!!!!

So many brain-washed sheep under the dictatorship of FOX NEWS :p WOW!!!

Funny Americans =)

[volumptuous]

David Brooks can eat my shit.

[insidepolitics]

White people had better wise up. Blacks are supporting Obama just for that reason. We are on the brink of a race war-support your own race, or lose it all!!

[nerdofthenight99]

Actually, young people are supporting Obama. I doubt this is much of a hate race war between whites and black... unless you're a part of the KKK or some other white supremacy group. I may not want Obama to be Pres. for a bunch of reasons, but It's definitely NOT because he's black.

[nerdofthenight99]

As loathe John McCain, I would NEVER consider Barrack "Obummer" and here's why: -ONLY in the senate for 2 years and missed 1/5 votes -ONLY succeeded in one bill to give relief to Rep. of Congo -NO experience in healthcare reform -NO experience in foreign policy -NO experience in executive leadership -NO experience or plans to solve illegal immigration fairly -NO experience in the economy -NO respect for our flag, pledge, or soldiers -NOTHING more than smooth-talk NO WAY HE'S GETTING MY VOTE!

[chaddy91]

u would rather vote for MCcain...keep the bush era going...trillion dollar debt,bad healthcar, countries hate us, war....u would rather VOTE for mccain than obama!!!

[nerdofthenight99]

The Obama battle cry: "DEATH TO CONSERVATIVES!" I despise McCain, but I KNOW that Obama is definitely NOT qualified to lead this country. All he's done is speak fluently and use the weak minded Bush-haters to sing his praises. I only agree that I disagree with him on every issue. For instance: a woman had a partial birth abortion, but the baby lived. Obama said that that same women should have the right to kill the baby anyway. He has wife and a daughter, but no respect for the sanctity of life.

[chaddy91]

I completetly respect ur views, I myself am I republican but McCanin is practically a democrat, his immigration views are the same as Obama's, HE IS THE SAME! he has flopped on tons of issues recently now that he is running as a republican that does not mean he'll keep them as prez. I am a conservative as u are, but its time to move away from the BUSH era, end this war!!! and Mccain wants to stay in Iraq 100 yrs. So i respect ur decision, but as a republican I am voting for Obamam

[nerdofthenight99]

In essence, JM is a panderer and a media circus performer and I HATE JM as much as any true breed Rep. but his views are far more conservative than BO's. Even HC is more conservative compared to BO. What I'm hoping for is JM choosing a good VP and then - with his old age and temper - die of a heart attack. I'd rather have someone like Romney or Guliani or Thompson, those ships sail by America, unfortunatley. It's my first time voting in an election and my choices are "bad" or "worse".

[chaddy91]

Yeah I'm totatlly embarassed with the Republican party for selecting this idiot! But u know we had republican in the house for 8 yrs, and he has worsened our counrty....so as much as i wish romney would be in...the fact is even if mccain has a great vice, the vice WONT influence at all. Take Al Gore for example, or chenny they dont do much compared to the prez himself. The conservative time was 8 yrs ago. we need someone with a new direction to clean up the mess...as much as i dislike obama...

[chaddy91]

Yeah I'm totatlly embarassed with the Republican party for selecting this idiot! But u know we had republican in the house for 8 yrs, and he has worsened our counrty....so as much as i wish romney would be in...the fact is even if mccain has a great vice, the vice WONT influence at all. Take Al Gore for example, or chenny they dont do much compared to the prez himself. The conservative time was 8 yrs ago. we need someone with a new direction to clean up the mess...as much as i dislike obama...

[chaddy91]

Just take a look at obama's speeches, what he says. Mabye he doesn't quite fit with our conservative policies...but he's not about isolating conswervatives, he's about embracing us. He said he would elect conservative cabninet members. We will have a vioce in his govt....u kno just be open minded and look at a couple of his speeches, mabye u'll like him a little more(though i don't expect u too lol)don't be the close minded conservative sterotype that liberals call us lol

[nerdofthenight99]

But you see, his speeches are all we have to go by. I have been on S&D for three years as a platform speaker and I know his type of people and their capabilities of persuasion. It's obvious when JM switches sides and panders because he's terrible at it, but when you take someone like BO who is both a lawyer, a senator, and a guru of the convincing calibre, it is hard to discern when he says something that contradicts himself or embraces a paradoxical mentality.

[nerdofthenight99]

Frankly, It's his job to be convincing, even as it is my opinion to convince you that he doesn't convince me. It's not that I'm closed-minded, it's just the fact that he really doesn't have a substantial amount of experience or merit to his political name. If he was a guy on my S&D team, we'd probably be good friends, granted we'd disagree politically, but who doesn't! However, looking at him as the leader of our country just seems idealistic when he has only been a senator for 2 years.

[nerdofthenight99]

So what it all boils down to when I make my final decision is experience. I'd have supported MR or RG or even BR in a pinch because all three of them posses the leadership experience that translates into being a good Pres such as problem solving, budget balancing, and leadership accountability. Sadly, many people have voted with their "media" eyes and ears instead of thinking out each person's qualifications, so we're left with three senators who, in reality, just vote (BO only 80% in 2 years!)

[baronmorris]

Have you read his books? I'm betting that NO, you haven't. typical.

[nerdofthenight99]

And I bet that his precious Rev. Wright hasn't read the bible either because if he did he wouldn't say half the stupid things he preaches. But I guess it pays to make people feel like their the victims and then pretend to be their savior. If Obama can't severe his connection with someone that liberal, imagine what he's going to do as president (*shudder*). His book isn't even that great, but because Oprah gave her endorsement, every person is willing to jump on the Obama bandwagon!

[enomarekim]

His books hardly mention his platform, it is like they are in court and they are trying to convince you that obama has good character, instead of trying to prove him innocent. The Fed is not a conspiracy. it exists, it is not needed, it is unconstitutional, and has amplified depressions over the past 100 years. artificial manipulation of the interest rate causes mal-investments, and also transfers the wealth from the poor to the rich

[chaddy91]

I completetly respect ur views, I myself am I republican but McCanin is practically a democrat, his immigration views are the same as Obama's, HE IS THE SAME! he has flopped on tons of issues recently now that he is running as a republican that does not mean he'll keep them as prez. I am a conservative as u are, but its time to move away from the BUSH era, end this war!!! and Mccain wants to stay in Iraq 100 yrs. So i respect ur decision, but as a republican I am voting for Obamam

[biko24601]

nerdofthenight99:

You really don't know who is qualified to lead this country because your qualifications for leadership are so narrow... for one thing, you neglect to mention that in regards to the partial birth issue his stance was that the mother's life was at risk. He does respect the sanctity of life -- the sanctity of the life of the mother and that the position was for "extreme cases". I really can't quite understand why you anti-abortion people worship the fetus so much.

[enomarekim]

abortion is a manufactured issue. my favorite candidate is "pro life," yet I think abortion should be legal. It is a trivial issue, and I don't care about it.

[normalais]

The fact that McCain is not a true republicans is the only good thing about him. Last thing this nation needs is another dumb @ss lying sack of human $hit republican in charge.

But if you ask me, he is a republican. Meaning I would never vote for his stupid arse.

Obama all the way baby. America is back!

[nerdofthenight99]

As loathe John McCain, I would NEVER consider Barrack "Obummer" and here's why: -ONLY in the senate for 2 years and missed 1/5 votes -ONLY succeeded in one bill to give relief to Rep. of Congo -NO experience in healthcare reform -NO experience in foreign policy -NO experience in executive leadership -NO experience or plans to solve illegal immigration fairly -NO experience in the economy -NO respect for our flag, pledge, or soldiers -NOTHING more than smooth-talk NO WAY HE'S GETTING MY VOTE!

[JJMARIA]

If you support Obama... then make sure to get out and VOTE on Super Monster Massive (etc) Tuesday February 5th!!!! Yes we can!

[bsahle]

Hateful and negative is not working for Mccain so try the positive way for once in your life time.

VOTE positive 2008

[jessrob73]

Obama 4 pres 2008!

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

Obama's a liar just like the rest of them. He wont change anything, lets just hope Hillary doesn't get elected. Real change is Ron Paul thats why they don't talk about him.

[rickymad82]

Yeah sure...

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

Just because they don't say it on CNN doesn't make it false. Just go back to sleep, keep taking your prozac, your country will be gone soon.

[rickymad82]

You're starting to sound like bla, bla, bla, CNN, bla, bla...

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

if your trying to be clever make it more than a sentence. The fact remains though that Obama is nothing more than than a creole who cares nothing about the despair of minorities. If your looking for a change in washington it better have more to do with the color of someone's skin. Again he's a liar just like the rest. Is he even going to stop the war? No.

[rickymad82]

I'm not defending him. My point is just that Ron Paul wouldn't fare any better...

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

Well Ron Paul isn't even on the washington inside. Thats why it takes 100,000's of people giving him money to make his campaign possible. Obama gets his money from the same place Hillary Clinton does and George W. Bush did. The facts are there, its up to you to make a decision. Whether its a stupid or an informed one is also up to you.

[normalais]

LOL we are making an informed decision. NO MORE CRAZY REPUBLICANS!

Obama will be the next president! Start getting used to it.

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

You are stupid. You think this is about republicans and democrats? LOL they're owned by the same people! Hillary will railroad Obama, guaranteed. It doesn't even matter because they will both start war with Iran, and neither will end the Iraq war. Either president will reside over the downfall of the west. Obama cant do SHIT about it, nor is he going to, BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT DOESN'T RUN THE COUNTRY ANYMORE. We've got commissions, committees, and lobbyists to do that! So start gettin used to it!

[normalais]

beyotch you're stupid. dems and those right wing lunatics are night and day. If Al Gore was our president this country would be lot better of right now.

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

No you really have no idea whats going on. The media doesn't even talk about the issues that matter, and issues that do, like the economy and the war, don't even get taken seriously or explained thoroughly. Who has talked about the dollar crisis in this race? Republicans. You probably have no idea what I'm talking about, though. And guess how many republicans started a war in the 20th century? 0. Maybe if you realized that this isn't like a fucking football game you'd look into some of this.

[baronmorris]

COMMON CONSPIRACY THEORY FALLACIES:

"Bandwagon Effect" get on the bus, it's leaving & all the cool people r on it.

Appeal to Rebellion: "born to be wiiild"

Shotgun Arg: many poor arguments strung together, try to make up in breadth what is lacking in certainty/depth.

Straw Man Arg.

Citing non-credible sources.

Snob appeal: Don't u wanna have it ALL figured out?!

Meanwhile, suspect motives for WANTING to believe (biases & blind spots) r seldom scrutinized & never ever given full disclosure.

peace

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

Oh, clever man made a list. Which one am I guilty of?

-"Bandwagon effect"- A revolution isn't a half-assed deal. How much of the country supported independence in 1776?

-"Appeal to rebellion"- A little more to this one than born to be wild. Do you like taking it in the ass, or are you going to turn around and sock them in the face?

-"shotgun.."- This is bound to happen with 450 chart. limit!

-"Straw Man"- I bet you think CNN and the Wall Street Journal are credible!

[Drugsdrugsdrugs]

-"Snob Appeal"- Not saying I know everything, but don't turn to the corporate media complex for straight answers. I don't have it all figured out I just know when I'm being lied to! And then you go on to say I just want to believe in this so bad, I'm willing to screw my perception? You're perception is screwed, have you even heard of the Military Industrial Complex? You cannot even imagine what it is capable of. It was a term dubbed by Eisenhower, a much greater man than Obama or Clinton.

[baronmorris]

I could argue u point for point, but that could go on forever. U would actually be surprised on how many "facts" we both agree on. I know about the Fed & the Military Industrial Complex, etc. It's a question of pragmatism & keeping it all in perspective. There IS a certain frenetic mental illness (often unfortunately coincident with genius) that chooses the conspiracy/revolution route. Impractical. Why don't u start by reading Obama's books. I'll mail them to you if you like.

Peace, for real.

[Seniors11]

Everyone Let's Vote 4 Obama HE ROCKS !!!!

[Seniors11]

Go Obama !!!

[saully1966]

That is what this country needs! A REAL uniter. I hope for Obama.

[jennanov77]

Well spoken!

[blradcl]

I wish more Republicans were like David Brooks. Neo-Cons and theocrats really destroyed the party.
