Got elected..passed everything to congress..got on his airplane..kissed foreign butt..never has landed..blamed everything on congress. We pay for your jet fuel..enjoy that Thanksgiving party? Others were hungry. I'll be glad when your party is over. Stay out of our schools.
Are you kidding me. I think he is one of the best president in the history of America. He won the noble peace prize award in just less than a year. No president in the history has won noble peace prize in this latest century. Don;t talk about those oldies who are dead and gone. He even donated $100 Million to Haiti from his pocket. No presidnet has ever given one single shit from his pocket to any country in devastating situation Obama Rocks!! He is the King of America!! Michelle the Queen!!!
Your writing here damages Obama and the Democratic party. Your ignorance is evidenced by your complete disregard for the rules of grammar, indefensible political positions, and misreadings of history. I love how at the end of the whole thing you dig your hole just a little deeper by referring to Obama as a monarch. Way to steal credibility from those whom you support. The party is better of if you keep your opinions to yourself until you learn how to voice them.
One of my english classes were showing the speech at summerschool and our class teacher told us that we had to fucking finish our math test to see. thats bullshit.
This is a slight unmeritable man, meet to be sent on errands: and, though others lay these honors on this man, to ease themselves of divers slanderous loads, he shall but bear them as the ass bears gold, to groan and sweat under the business, either led or driven, as they point the way; and having brought their treasure where they will, then take they down his load and turn him off, like to the empty ass, to shake his ears and graze in commons.
Obama is not so great. I thought he was a superman with the way the media was talking him up but his first year just shows he is 'normal'. He is nice guy but I don't see anything exceptional with him.
You need to give him more than just a year. It took bush 8 years to fuck up this country. It may take Obama 4-8 more years to make it better. GIVE HIM TIME.
WHAT A UN-UNIFORMED COUNTRY THIS HAS TURNED ABOUT TO BE WITH THE PRESENCE OF AN AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT...fucking suck it up and STOP BITCHING @ at every peice of negative garbage about our president...i am a white male 37 years old and OBAMA has done alot in the few days he has become president I STILL HAVE MY JOB...So Fucki YOU ALL....instead of complaining behind a fucking computer find out what the fuck you can do to make the country better assholes.........sighned fed up sopporter~
The thing I don't like about Obama is how he won the election. What I mean is, the campaigning that went on. If you had walked into a spencers gifts during the election, what did you see, shirts with his face on em, with a caption like "tell your mama I'm for Obama" or "Calm the Fuck down I got this!" and the shirt with McCain's face on it said "5 things McCain wants to drill" the first four being geographical locations that had oil, and #1 was Sarah Palin, Is that not slanted.
Obama had the most money put into his campaign out of all the presidential candidates. That's a fact. But presidents aren't elected by the people anymore, they are selected by real rulers of this country.
And BTW, let`s not forget.....The very FIRST thing Obama did when he got into office, I mean THE very first thing when he walked into that Oval Office last year, was to try to close down Gitmo. Beyond ANYTHING else, that was his #1 priority. And you can look that up and confirm it for yourself.
Just because whatever the president of the USA does first after being sworn in doesn't mean that it was his number one priority. I'm pretty sure health care reform meant more to Obama than Gitmo did.
yall need to stop hating on President Obama. He is doing everything he can to fix the mess bush left.
I LOVE U PRESIDENT OBAMA. DON'T LISTEN TO THESE HATERS.
(watch me get like 4 thumbs down because of haters) F U OBAMA HATERS. HES OUR PRESIDENT SO DEAL WITH IT. N ALL THE TEENAGERS WHO SAY THE DON'T LIKE HIM R ONLY REPEATING WHAT THEIR PARENTS R SAYIN. F YALL DUMMIES!
Ya the exact same went for Bush as I recall. He did some stupid things yes, but nothing THAT bad. I mean really, all the kids used to hate on Bush because their parents told them to as well. He was never that bad imo, people just loved making fun of him.
Personally I do not agree with almost anything that man believes. Thats why I dislike him myself. And well, he has some very wrong beliefs in my opinion. He is and absolutely amazing talker though, great at a speech.
Well..i was diegnosed with retna pigmentosa wen i was just a baby..itz been a real challenge 4 me at skool EvRyDaY..so i decided 2 drop out as a freshmen nd get my GED..i felt like it was the best thing 4 me..but after watchin ths video,im now a 16 year old drop out who feelz guilty..like i wont accomplish much in life..like i did rong..idk..i just hope evry1 else out ther learnz 4rm obamaz speech tho..
Remember last year when he won the election that school changed their name to the "Barrack Hussein Obama elementary school" to honor him ? Wonder what they think now LOL TEAR IT DOWN TEAR IT DOOOWN
President Obama has given our Democratic Party a terrible legacy that will live on for many years to come. He has shown those with any intelligence that anyone other than a corporate lobbyist should nevermore believe in a Democrat for any positive change. Our President Obama is clearly the false prophet of change. That is to say, except for given us a higher meaning of change in the form of gullibility accorded to Democratic Party demagoguery.
and bush gave a terrible legacy to the rebublican party, the problem is that everyone blames the government for all of their problems, pretty soon, the government will take responsability for every single problem we have,
its interesting how people criticize obama for spending "so much money". Does anyone honestly believe there are that many things that can accomplished WITHOUT the spending of money? People are starving? Buy more food. People are homeless? Build more shelters. Its the same unavoidable principle that has existed during every presidency. Obama has actually put america on the good side of countries that were previously not so kind to us, look at the bigger picture people.
I agree PhilaFlyer85. Whether you agree with Obama or not, you have to accept that this was a great message. Many kids in America need inspiration to stay in school and Obama is trying to help them.
wow, whether you like him or not, put the politics aside for a minute and give some props to an unbelievable message. Great examples of the Harry Potter author and Michael Jordan failing at first, but never giving up to achieve their goals (that probably exceeded their original goals). Whether he wrote it or a staffer did, this sums up the power and opportunities that can result from knowledge, hard work, and persistence.
whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."thomas jeffeson"
Whether we vote Democrat or Republican nothing is going to change until there is a revolution in this country. I am not looking for violence, we just need to let these corrupt politicians know they are in power because WE voted them in and we can kick them out just as easily.
Obama gets things done! You may not like it. A leader will always piss off a few people when they achieve something. I had to adapt when Bush was Presidedent. Now we are facing some major changes again. This country has to change because the world has changed. I am going to adapt to whatever changes may come. All those complaining about our governemt won't be prepared and will eventually die off. We won't have to listen to their constant whining anymore. That is going to be a glorious day.
LOL, This country will never change. People will always hate people like yourself. People will always buy guns and shoot at targets. Some will even fantasize using them to kill people just like yourself. No, this country hasn't changed, won't change, and neither has the world.
@wellyuneednt To back up your argument. Obama has passed some 96.1% of legislation, which is very impressive and the highest among modern day presidents.
to me obama is a good president but seriously i think that when you become president your taking risks like not spending so much time going on vacation and thats just risks you gotta be willing to take like spending time with family and other stuff and seriously he shouldve takin serious act against the plane incident
Obama is a great president. he is focusing more on heatlh and education. those are two strong points we all need in life for the future, for our childrens, childrens. So we need to all have open mind for the future and it all starts in the present and to learn to forget the past. Keep pushing Obama i see a change...
It's hilarious how a completely bipartisan Stay-in-school-speech like this draws so much fire from the dumb right(not the WHOLE right, mind you) I mean, what kind of dumbass redneck is actually going to stand up and "fight" their children being inspired to succeed in school/life? None of us will ever live to see the scars bush inflicted on this great land heal, and you have to be a very special brainless ape of a human to criticize Obama for doing NOTHING FUCKING WRONG!! I mean, FUCK! -anger-
Probably because he hasn't done a single thing he promised the country he would do. And also because people are starting to realize they were fooled by his good public image and catchy phrases like "we can change."
1st off people havent gave Obama a chance to do n e thing...the man is not superman it takes time to fix wtf Bush dun fukd up!!! I think its a racial thing and it shouldnt be about race..we all breathe air, and bleed blood, and put our pants on one leg at a tyme!! Fuck wutchu hataz think Barrack fuckin rules!!!...Bush had the chair 2xs now u tell me wtf he did right??? in 8 yrs??? the bitch had plenty of tme to fix wut he fukd up!!
People hate Obama because everyone feels stupid about electing bush 2 times. Its like when a girl gets her heart broken and then makes every guy pay for it cause she wants to prove to herself it wont happen again but then she gets a guy who wont do her wrong and she refuses to see it cause she wants to keep pushing them away and show off her "independence" for her own pride. People try to hate on Obama to "prove" "oh we wont be fooled we're smart now" and they only make themselves look dumber.
It's amazing that we lived through 8 years with pee wee herman as president and darth vader as vice president. The constitution was just a piece of paper to them.
Finally, a return to democracy and a brilliant President! You go Obama!
Our Leader Who art on Earth,[Obama]be thy name , Thy New World Order, will thus be done, in Amerika as it is in China, Give us this day, our daily carbon credit, To forgive us our carbon foot print, As we persecute those who breath with out paying you thus And deliver us not in to Peace, But into the Globalist Machine of War and Order.... ...For War is Peace and Death is Life... ....Amen!.... ...Brothers 'n' Sisters?.. ..Can I get an Amen?....
No president gets the hang of it in the first year. There is no other job like it, so it's always kind of funny whenever people talk about the right experience during a campaign. There are countless numbers of things a president needs to do under normal circumstances. Obama took control under extremely terrible circumstances and hasn't really dropped the ball yet. Stop criticizing when you have no idea what it's like.
i think it's great for our president to talk to school children. there's no reason that he shouldn't. he's the leader of our country, and has good things to say to inspire children to get an education.
ATTENTION ALL REPUBLICANS: I'm gonna start petitioning the government to declare war on Iran! Here's the plan: we're gonna lower federal taxes and borrow trillions from China to pay for it like Bush did with Iraq. None of our so called "allies" will do shit to help us because none of them give a shit, but it's ok because we have the most expensive and awesome military in the world! Who's with me!!
I like how he says dont be afraid to ask questions yet he filters media so he doesnt get too difficult of questions that would make him stumble by real media that shows any truth
Most of you are not educated enough to understand peace and war politics....You just can't say "Ok ya'll soldiers lets go home" and by the way I'll fix this mess Bush made in the morning..far more complicated than that....Stay in School!!!
Would the war mongering conservatives still have supported the war if Bush had proposed raising taxes to pay for it? If Bush had said, "We need to go to war with Iraq, but we'll need to raise taxes to pay for it," would Republicans have supported it then???? I think we all know the answer.
Unfortunately , people voted for Obama Because hes Black and they wanted to see a Black President. Even though Obama is Destroying America, Black people wont admit that he's doing anyhing wrong. Thats true Racism .
Not everything that Obama does is bad, but his economic, environmental and healthcare policies are going to DESTROY the US economy.
Obama is always campaigning, telling people what they want to hear, but then doing that which forwards his warped ideology. Obama = nice guy, bad president.
idkk y parents andd others were tripping about him making this speech. funny because when all the other president's wanted to make theirs no one had a problem. now there seems to be one now? is it beacause he is african amreican?
He not perfect. You're not always going to like what he does. But at least he is trying to do something. It takes a while but eventually things will get better.
obama the only right thing u have done so far has put those 30,00 troops in and my god protect them. we need to get in there win this thing an get ou. othe wise u want bigger gov and less power to the people. wrong its smaller gov and more power to the peole
capitilism has always worked so were the hell r u getting ur facts at amer socialistsparty. obama is taking the power out of the peoples hands and making bigger government. we dont want bi government and more taxes we need small gov. and much more power to the people obama won the nobel peace prize what the hell did he do to deserve that besides lie about how many people dont have healthcare. and i bet u dont know that some 20 million out 50 mil r here ilegally. so figure out how much more tax?
I'm guess you were born in 87. You've not the experience nor the proper judgment to make that statement. He is one year in and came in with an eight mile high pile of crap. Now, I'm not here to flame you but, you do realize Anarchy is a joke? When your mother gets killed or sister (hypothetically) gets raped, what judicial system will prosecute them for free? Take them off the street so another victim isn't claimed? You are an extremist and never does it have a place in politics.
I gotta admit, Obama is not perfect but neither is anyone in this world. What I did like about this speech is that it was personal. I don't have kids yet, but when I do in a few years, I will show them this speech. What I didn't like is people who tried to rebel by not letting their children watch it and this creates the notion that it's ok to disrespect the authority. And it is not.
Thank you for your service! Obama is the change we need! Capitalism and freemarkets are destroying this country. When Health Care is passed, we will control 20% of the economy and the 118 new Gov't Agencies will employ people. Obama/ Pelosi. and Reid have the finacial backing of China, the fastest growing economy in the world to back us up. The Gov't will take over industry and provide foir the people! Obama is leading the way!
AmerSocialistParty: Are you clueless? Capitalism is destroying our country?! That is the only thing keeping us alive. Without it you and I would'nt have a job. We would still be living in huts, because hmm electricity was invented by Capitalism, cars was, airplanes, the phone.....but you're right it destroyed America. Also Yea China is the fastest growing economy thanks to it becoming more Capitalist you idiot....
It IS OK to go against authority if its for the right thing....that said i dont see why the parents wouldn't let there children see this speech, his best one yet that actually has substance to it not just "CHANGE or HOPE" he is actually helping these kids
Signing a petition will not impeach Obama. A president can only be impeached by an act of Congress: a formal accusation of his high crimes and/or misdemeanors (such as bribery, perjury and/or treason) must first be made by the House of Representatives, and then a trial and conviction is conducted by the Senate. Only two presidents have even ever had the accusation, and both were acquitted.
Your petition is meaningless. Get familiar with your Constitution and American history.
Petitions give rise to revolt. Abortion is the lynch pin upon which eugenics is hinged. Are Human Beings THE premiere life-form of this planet: Earth? That's the question. Those who believe not condemn their unborn children to forceps & vacuum tubes to make room for snail darters & eaglets.
Obama's announcing Troop (40,000) buildup in Afghansitan tonite. - he's doing just as Bush did. Remember how Obama promised at the beginning of his presidency to withdraw the troops?
Same evil, diff prez..
"Know a man by the fruits of his labor."
-Holy Bible
Many daddy's in military won't be coming home for Christmas this year - thank you Obama!
Many will come home in body bags.
This is not a war on Terror - it is in fact a war against Humanity.
Well, put Designtoad. Liberal followers are too enthralled at the idea they are helping someone. They dont realize the BO agenda is about control. Keeping people on par with a single reigning government in control. There is this little thing known as initiative which the new generation has lost, give me something for nothing their new motto.
This is just racism. You need to get over it. We won. Obama president now. You need to just leave if you don't like socialism. Power to the people! Free Mumia!
This sounds simple enough - to me it sounds most like he's reprimanding the kids and giving them a stern talking to about patriotism. This should fly more with conservatives than liberals
At the very minimum, most Democrats already know their pleas to the Democratic Party are only being answered by repeated insult and injury. Many of our elected officials are no longer thinking of themselves as being our representatives, but instead refer to themselves as leaders in the true form of tyrants.
Obama is sensational!

Whether we vote Democrat or Republican nothing is going to change until there is a revolution in this country. I am not looking for violence, we just need to let these corrupt politicians know they are in power because WE voted them in and we can kick them out just as easily.

Obama gets things done! You may not like it. A leader will always piss off a few people when they achieve something. I had to adapt when Bush was Presidedent. Now we are facing some major changes again. This country has to change because the world has changed. I am going to adapt to whatever changes may come. All those complaining about our governemt won't be prepared and will eventually die off. We won't have to listen to their constant whining anymore. That is going to be a glorious day.

Obama is a great president. he is focusing more on heatlh and education. those are two strong points we all need in life for the future, for our childrens, childrens.

Probably because he hasn't done a single thing he promised the country he would do. And also because people are starting to realize they were fooled by his good public image and catchy phrases like "we can change."

No president gets the hang of it in the first year. There is no other job like it, so it's always kind of funny whenever people talk about the right experience during a campaign. There are countless numbers of things a president needs to do under normal circumstances. Obama took control under extremely terrible circumstances and hasn't really dropped the ball yet. Stop criticizing when you have no idea what it's like.

I gotta admit, Obama is not perfect but neither is anyone in this world. What I did like about this speech is that it was personal. I don't have kids yet, but when I do in a few years, I will show them this speech. What I didn't like is people who tried to rebel by not letting their children watch it and this creates the notion that it's ok to disrespect the authority. And it is not.

Thank you for your service! Obama is the change we need! Capitalism and freemarkets are destroying this country. When Health Care is passed, we will control 20% of the economy and the 118 new Gov't Agencies will employ people. Obama/ Pelosi. and Reid have the finacial backing of China, the fastest growing economy in the world to back us up. The Gov't will take over industry and provide foir the people!

Signing a petition will not impeach Obama. A president can only be impeached by an act of Congress: a formal accusation of his high crimes and/or misdemeanors (such as bribery, perjury and/or treason) must first be made by the House of Representatives, and then a trial and conviction is conducted by the Senate. Only two presidents have even ever had the accusation, and both were acquitted.
Your petition is meaningless. Get familiar with your Constitution and American history.

Petitions give rise to revolt. Abortion is the lynch pin upon which eugenics is hinged. Are Human Beings THE premiere life-form of this planet: Earth? That's the question. Those who believe not condemn their unborn children to forceps & vacuum tubes to make room for snail darters & eaglets.

At the very minimum, most Democrats already know their pleas to the Democratic Party are only being answered by repeated insult and injury. Many of our elected officials are no longer thinking of themselves as being our representatives, but instead refer to themselves as leaders in the true form of tyrants.
