  • obama successful at failing

    but he cannot be considered successful because he doesnt even try

    he just talk about stuff to sound smart.

  • Is this maitreya?

  • حلـــــــــو جـــــــــــــداً

  • عندي طلب خاص:صلو على النبي

  • maybe ted nugent can be the vice president to palin... it seems only the nuge and palin understand that what this country needs is more freedom, patriots and tax cuts only then will we go back to the constitution. if only we could have voted bush king, like conservatives wanted, we wouldnt be in this mess.

  • If only American news programs were as in-depth, hard-hitting and eloquent as this one!

  • Obama seems good person But He is usless to even Fart in USA. He can not do any thing else then speaking good. Any Way Does his speach change image of American in Arabs Then answer is Not at all. Because Hard to belive actions.

  • On August 13 Damon Weaver from Pahokee, Fla. was able to get an interview with president Obama. Something that most TV, and newspapers cannot even do. The 11 year old was able to talk to president Obama about education. He asked Obama about the speech he did in September about education. Yet the interview wasnt all about the major problems with the educational system.

  • Israel will go to hell

    Greetings from Germany

  • Is Obama a Moslem?

  • @xandras1111 No, he has Muslim roots

  • @xandras1111 No. He's also not a Muslim.

  • u wanna noe why there were bombs exploded after 2001 9/11 ? because the media are giving too many space for them to expand their influence through a medium.. MEDIA terrorism EXISTS WAY LONG BEFORE 9/11 !

  • you people really bugged when u heard "arabs". man.. before the 9/11 and all the media coverage on terrorism and somehow generalize the idea that all arabs and muslims are terrorists, BOMBING HAPPENED EVERYWHERE! and after 2001, and all the attacks after that, suddenly arabs and muslims becomes this black listed things that u need to avoid and hate..

  • Where's the rest of it?

  • Mr Obama bring your troops alive before you bring them died, jews think in tulmud that god creat other nations to be slaves for them (in jews mind all american christian r a slave and not a strategic partner) see the telmud, but don't ask them about the truth because they lied and hid and bond the truth.

  • al arabiya is an American channel with an Arabic: name and presentators and money.

    simple facts: if obama wanted really to communicate with Arab people he should spoke with the most viewed and the most popular Arabic channel .aljazeera .

  • this arab jornalist supporter of vahabi + algaeda- shame on USA talk 2 him

    Al hayat + Al arabiya are pan arab racist facist pro saddam+ algaeda media. These 2 media r engine for terror and arab racist supported by israel, so israel also support terror-pan sunni arab al hayat media has a 100000s iraqi civilians blood on their hands. If USA want fight terrorism so they have to arrest al hayat+ al arabiya + vahabi + egyptian terror network sending monet 2 terror in iraq-Shame

  • well arabs overseas could say the same about cnn, fox news, msnbc, and abc news, theyre ALL owned by jewish and zionist officials...we talk about south korea being blocked out from news...when america ourself is being blocked out from the truth happening in palestine...on youtube type in palestine war...and A MILLION results will come up showing u the TRUTH...that is being blacked out....GOD bless

  • you mean the jews are behind all the chaos?

  • @arabqueen09 owned by zionist officials, what are you on man, CRACK,WEED or a combination of both. you guys are always trying to blame the jews for your problems lmfao maybe you should look at your damn govt. for your problems.

  • whats wrong with doing interviews with arabs

  • @RubberChickenMan75 He's the President of the United States, he should be focused at home, but this is a small part of his support for muslim brotherhood's goal to subject the entire world to Islam.

  • Truly, it is drivel to suggest that your incredibly obscure unsubstantiated conspiracy theory is possibly maybe idiotic.

  • i will spend my whole life defying people like you

  • Good, we need more people to make sure the president of the United States is not a secret Muslim. Any day now he will start busting out the burqas.

  • no we need more people to realize that this man is responsible for killing innocent people every day in the name of "freedom" not one soul should die for the "American" way of life. I can tell that you are a person who would rather agree with the majority because its easier and requires less thinking.

  • My "drivel" comment was originally in response to someone demanding better proof of a birth certificate or something because he was afraid Obama was a cryptomuslim possibly here to make us forget about Jesus and start worshipping a moon god or whatever it is Muslims do

  • lol get over it , why would any pres or diplomat need a gift from the u.s.a. dont you already have your freedom? were not your handout. theres no more vip section get in the line with everyone else.

  • Obama gives preference to Arab media & looks forward to diplomatic talks with Iran, & Korea, but he gives the British Prime Minister a snub of "gifts" that are totally unacceptable for a chief of state. To our enemies, dipolomacy, to our allies, a snub. Hmm, I wonder if this is the "change" his voters voted for?

  • To this day I have not met a single supporter of Obama that has been able to describe a single facet of his political ideology.

  • Hi, Obama is a liberal democrat.

    Mystery solved numbnuts!

  • Beautiful. Now if you and the rest of your party only knew what the hell that meant.

  • All that is happening is, the west is stirring up a hornets nest, We'll never be able to influence that region with our laws. They where happier before we got involved. This should be fucking obvious to a 4th grader by now.

  • Al Arabiya is the Fox News of the middle east. They always criticize any who oppose the US and its imperial impositions. Al Arabiya is funded by the Saudis, the closest Arab ally to the US.

  • ironic isn't it? fox bullshitting about Saudi Arabia and they are close ally.

  • Seriously. I can't hear anything in this video.

  • Mashallah!!! Obama makes Jimmy Carter look real good!!!

  • as an educated muslim woman, i believe there so much misconception about wat islam is all about...........with all this silly comments suggesting muslim women are treated unlikely and all that crap.....i speak for those women who understand society life and what role nature bestowed on them wen i say "rules of islam is the best way to live".....try to find out........theres so much credited websites about islam on the net that can lighten ur day.

  • great comment, to the point.

  • @hamdiamal. Educated? You might consider learning to spell a few simple words, such as WHAT WHEN and YOUR.

  • @hamdiamal You're a liar. If you think Islam teaches any respect for women then you wouldn't be living in a Christian country.

  • @MrSheniah stfu, seriously. Back up your facts.

  • wow you are not only racist you are also ignorant. Muslims are not only Arabs and are not only found in MENA in fact a considerable % of Muslims are non-Arabs. Obama made it clear hes nt a Muslim and even if he was a Muslim I thought the US is the land of equality or may be for all but Arabs& Muslims and according to you Blacks too.

  • deja vú

  • i sense that Obama is helping israel more than he's helping Palestinian !

  • As someone from the region who was very happy to finally hear of news of new rules for US foreign policy towards us, I must say yes hes being very careful about Israel but since Jewish vote does matter alot I have to say hes in a difficult position and only way out is if Americans would make sure hes readjusting of US-Israel relations is supported by majority of them

  • I follow Christ and I don't hate anyone. I have, however read the Quran and If everyone would read it , it would become more clear to us why there is no peace in the middle east...ever. The unrest over there is that same today as it was before the US even existed. Have we contributed to the problem? Maybe.... but the problem would be there regardless.

  • Im wondering if you mean you read a translation? read explanation of verses in context? read on principles of humanrights,rules of war and principles of treating "others" as citizens and visitors in Muslim countries?I would like to ask you, if Islam was such a religion of hate how came it managed to hold a state of ppl of many ethnicities&religions? How come till date we have Christians, Jews& others living among us as citizens?! Is Islam to blame for crusades?French& English occupation? NO

  • Are you serious? Like threatening to put a teacher in jail for naming a teddy bear Muhammad? The religion of tolerance?! The religion of human and woman's rights?! You have to be kidding. At least most religions have modernized, Islam is lagging way behind.

    We can go down the list of modern genocides committed by Islam and trust me it's a long one.

    As long as the crazed fundamentalist aren't reined in by the moderate Muslims, people will continue to view Islam negatively.

  • "The unrest over there is that same today as it was before the US even existed."

    1) The unrest in that region was nowhere near in pre-colonial days what it is now.

    2) Christian Europe had wars every 30 years from the 5th century until the mid-20th century.

    "Have we contributed to the problem? Maybe"

    Yes. Colonialism, funding dictatorships, using Israel as an attack dog, bombings and economic sanctions tend to cause unrest.

  • thanks for your imput, i'm sure everyone here will take what you said into consideration.

  • I don't think he will ever understand how important our freedom is. I do have a question? Why is it always about him being the first black president, what about the other half. (the white half.) I thought this wasn't suppose to about race when he ran for President. I just wish I would hear that he is half white. I don't feel that he is the first black president. I feel that his name is a slap to the United States and the soldiers fighting for our country.

  • you are racist

  • ah, he's remarkable. hopefully he stays true to his words and helps americans realize not all muslims are crazy radical terrorists...

  • If you want to undersand the attitude of Islam toward other nations, simply get an english translation of the Quran and "thumb through it" for an hour. If you've never read it, it will blow your mind. 9-11 was anot about the war in Iraq (hadn't started yet), the US ecomomy, oil or even GW Bush...read for yourself.

  • your a dumb ass if you think the war in Iraq "hadnt started yet".. Have you heard of the gulf war or even george bush senior?

  • You skimmed through a translation&think youve become the expert :)

    911 was about Quada getting revenge from US.Islam was used by Quada&Muslims suffered most for wt happened.Nothing in Islam justifies killing of any innocent civilians+using wrong mean even to reach ligitimate end is not allowed in Islam. Instead of boming other countries &blaming other religions ask for full investigation about role of your prev govs/security officials encouraging & supporting radicals using Islam to gain power.

  • Buy merchandise NOW OBAMABOTS!

  • Obama brother has been arrested by Kenyan police on a charge of possession of marijuana, police said Saturday.

  • don't expect to much from him

    he isn't guevara

  • no...illiterate people like you who can't spell are the the one's who are going to destrOy this country

  • Interesting...

  • Im a man of high expectations, so I expect alot from Queens-princes-and presidents. So heres my only wish...

  • Mr.Obama please put the BIG MAC on the dollar menu?

  • While Obama has tried to push his origins into the background, his "Islamic roots" have won him a place in many Arabs' hearts. ,he has an arab and black blood+ blood of his mother.amazing!

  • He is also part reptilian alien.

  • his mom was white.... his dad was a Muslim from kenya

  • it's about catching on, not catching up.

  • America is rounding the corner towards greatness again. We will be great again, and the world desperately needs for us to be that very thing.

  • Wow all the derranged and irrational republicans who supported Bush over the last 8 years are coming out the closet with comments totally unrelated to the video. This is probably because you don't fully understand the big words, the current situation and the foriegn sounding names. America should feel very lucky that Obama has arrived at a time of economic and political crises, and clean up the mess left by George Bush. America this is what a true world leader sounds like... Listen carefully!

  • I hope you're joking. He's gonna clean things up buy dumping a shit load of cash that we don't have into a supposed "stimulus" bill? A bill that only 3% of the 825 billion kicks in this year, and only 16% is for infrastructure, The rest in social programs. Ha! yeah right.

  • Stewy as you imply, if Obama's proposed stimulus package is so one-sided and it is supposed to be wasting so much tax money then why has he met with the Republican minority, taken their advice and agreed to trim it down?

  • Umm, you mean by taking the birth control money? Funny how no republican voted for the bill, the only thing that was bipartisian was the vote against it.

    Only 20 billion will be spent this year, and only 90 billion on infrastructure starting 2010 to 2016. Take a look at the bill, it isn't very "stimulating."

  • We Love you too :-)

  • Change has came!!!

  • On America's face.

  • psh and people were worried that he is not "very American" these next fours years may actually get worse then the last 8 I did not think that was even remotely possible

  • Wow all the derranged and irrational republicans who supported Bush over the last 8 years are coming out the closet with comments totally unrelated to the video. This is probably because you don't fully understand the big words, the current situation and the foriegn sounding names. America should feel very lucky that Obama has arrived at a time of economic and political crises, and clean up the mess left by George Bush. America this is what a true world leader sounds like... Listen carefully!

  • Cause he's a fucking politician, you idiot.

  • Now that the election is over it's not about tripping Obama up.

    It's about winning over Arab support. Consider questions can be leading. For example "Why do you hate Muslims?" implies the interviewed hates Muslims. Obama would spend much of his time in other stations deflecting attacks rather than advancing American policy.

    And that policy is to make Osama Bin Laden look like a tired man of yesterday. The War on Terror is a war of ideas and he just fought on favorable terrain.

  • I have been to Kenya and the myth re the brother is irksome. He has repeated that he is doing what he wants to do with HIS life. Suggest you do same

  • go OBAMA go .. we all behaind u

    I love u so much .. dont listen to them u r great .... keep on dat ;)

  • did you come in here to watch the video or talk shit?

  • flyboy you disgust me. Obama was raised by his grandparents for a period of time in his life and his grandmother died one day before the election, therefore no matter how bad he wanted to go he couldn't. Keep your negativity to yourself. Obama will do more to repair this country than you can even comprehend. This interview is proof.

  • xxmoweedxx, he was raised by his grandparents from age 6 on moron.

    The funeral was held 4 days AFTER the election. The Gov't would get him to Hawaii if he wanted to go! You kidding me?? What about the fact NOBODY else in his family went either?

    What about Kenya Granny? Half Brother? Aunt?

    Your a ignorant fool if you believe what you say! He's appointed criminals to high postitions(Geitner), closed gitmo not knowing what to do w/prisoners, a TRILLION dollar spending bill?

    DISASTER !!

  • LMAO!!! Al Qaeda's fucked!

    They're like "Holy shit, now only does this guy have a muslim name, but he's got family members that's muslim! FUCK, how do we go up against that? But we have to do something cause they're coming after us!!!"

  • Oh, I almost forgot about his half-brother who lives in a hut in Kenya on $1 a month and his illegal alien Aunt who lives in a ghetto in Boston. He refuses to do ANYTHING to help them either.

    Swell guy huh?? With family members like Obama, who the hell needs enemies?

  • Comment removed

  • Obama didn't even bother to attend his grandmothers funeral.

    He refused to see his other grandmother who flew 9000 miles from Kenya to the inauguration. She froze in the crowd like anyone else.

    You jackass libtards THINK Obama gives a shit about you or this Country?? LOL!

    Obama is a heartless, souless, sociopathic pig with a cult of personality JUST LIKE HITLER was.

  • President Obama did attend a private ceremony with his half-sister in Hawaii...Are you 100% sure that they did not meet? Let's say they did not meet..I can definitely understand because he was not close to his paternal side of his family. They did not help raise him and there was little to no contact from his Kenyan relatives. Please be aware that Sen. John and Mrs. McCain don't acknowledge a portion of their family (Google it). BTW, your Hitler comparison fits Bush.

  • MaseratiJones,

    NO he did NOT attend a private ceremony in Hawaii for her! The funeral was open to the public and NOT ONE family member showed up! He SAID he was gonna go to Hawaii to "honor" her last December but never did.

    Yes I'm sure they didn't meet. You can understand huh?? LOL! Sure you can. Your blind by the tears of joy in your eyes. His own grandmother travels 9000 miles to honor him and he won't meet with her?

    Great family values huh?? He's a dispicable, self absorbed prick!

  • Bush:

    1. Fabricating intell to trick us into a war

    2. Outing CIA agents who dare to tell the truth

    3. Creating own intell unit to contradict the CIA and provide fake intell

    4. Cutting taxes and interest rates during a costly war of his own making

    5. Murdering the English language with every speech

    6. Making our entire country look like a bunch of idiots

  • All points correct and especially Point 6

  • At least we still look a hell of lot smarter than Germans! Don't help me dood.

  • I´m not german and i´m not saying you are a bunch of idiots but thanks him it looks like!

  • ice037, I can tell you that in Palestine only about 3% of the population can be described as "very religious".

  • why do you say stuff like that?????

  • American progressives like, Reed, Pelosi, and Obama don't defend minorities, they USE them for their own political agenda. Without poor minorities, and white guilt they wouldn't have a base. There for it makes sense to keep them poor.

    BTW I don't subscribe to any religious dogma. so your idea I've been suckered is pointless.

    Personally, Jews, Christians, and Muslims deserve each other. But I'd rather live under our version of Judah christian morals and laws then Sharia.

  • It doesn't matter if you don't believe in any religious dogma. If you want me to put it in simple words for you (no offense intended) *it takes two to war*. Bin Laden's personal playbook to destroy the United States:

    1. Make as many Americans as possible think that hating America is a basic premise of fundamental Islam.

    2. Through this hatred, make Americans elect as many war monger politicians as possible to overextend America and bankrupt it.

    You've been suckered stewy.

  • If you think Christian is a religion of peace, you're the sucker. ALL organized religions have a past and present of being insane.

  • Right now, in the present Is-lame is being insane.

  • It depends on what you call fundamental. What is fundamental to you is not fundamental to another practitioner. So the real question is this: Is hatred of America fundamental to Islam? In other words, do a majority of Muslims *worship* hatred of America? No.

    If you choose not to frame the question this way, then I can very easily bring up Fred Phelps as "fundamental Christianity." Again, the only objective measure of what is fundamental or not is number of practitioners and perhaps time span.

  • You might have a point about white guilt if Obama won narrowly. But he won by a landslide:

    1. Bush hatred.

    2. Economic crisis (people think Democrats can better handle the economy.)

    3. Sarah Palin is an airhead.

    Democratic base is the young and moderate Christians. If you want to revive Republicans before they're extinct, embrace minorities but stick to conservative ideals. Blacks killed gay marriage in California. But they will never support a Republican party that talks like you.

  • I don't really care about ideology. What I do care about is leaving my grand kids in debt to the Chinese.

    Liberals feed off class envy and handouts to get their votes. Feeding the monster even more, after bitching about all of Bushes spending. What a joke.

    McCain is more of a democrat then Obama.

    50 million people didn't vote for Obama. What landslide?

    You mean talks the truth? You're right, everyone ignores the truth to be "PC."

  • What? McCain lost by a large margin.

  • I used to think like you too. Then I looked into the proportion of debt. More than half is owed by the government to the government, another quarter by Americans and only a quarter by foreign interests only a fraction of which is China.

    Second, interest payments during Bush's tenure have gone down from 10% of tax receipts to 5% In other words just like conservatives predicted, the Bush tax cuts increased revenue.

    Any American would be thrilled to pay only 5% of their income to maintain a loan.

  • Yeahhhhh sure. America owes 55 trillion in just entitlement debts(SS,MC,ect...) That's over $400,000 per family.

    China is the only thing holding up the dollar right now. Because they own most of our debt. Wait till they bail on the $, then the real fun begins.

  • You don't get the point. It doesn't matter how much the total mortgage costs, only how much you're paying per month on the mortgage. And I'm telling you it's peanuts, 252 billion in fiscal year 2009 in interest payments. If anything, we're *scamming* the Chinese.

    If you understand Chinese history you'll know why they'll never bail on the dollar. Peasants need work, or they topple the government. Happened in every Chinese dynasty. The flow of cheap goods must continue: high dollar low Yuan.

  • I'm not talking about history, I'm talking about right now. The $ is the gold standard of the world and we're killing it by taking on to much debt and spending to much for a global empire(printing money.)

    China buys our waste and turns it into goods selling it back to us. They keep their currency worthless to have cheap exports, the same time our $ drops they can buy our exports cheaper.

    A consumption economy will never last.

  • A fiat currency doesn't work even close to the way the gold standard works.

    So called "Japanese" cars are made in America. American managers run many Chinese factories. The American Government's job isn't to be a penny-pinching accountant, but to raise the quality of life for all Americans as much as possible. If that means deficits and ripping off Chinese then so much the better.

    Savings is *not* automatically investment. It is hoarding, anti-capitalist. Money not in motion is money wasted.

  • It's the individuals job to raise THEIR own quality of life, not governments. By working hard, saving money, and living within your means.

    The argument you make is the reason our economy sucks, people just think they can borrow and spend. The governments even worse at it. I think you forgot that's the exact reason why we're in this mess.

    No one wants to save any money, so when something does happen that's why their screwed, because you had to have a flat screen instead of insurance.

  • Of course you're ignoring plenty of people who work hard, save money, live within their means and still get screwed. That's where government comes in.

    All the personal anecdotes in the world won't change the fact you can't run a national economy the way your run personal finances. "Living within means" for a government would mean no roads, education, hospitals, schools, or military since all of those don't generate income directly for decades.

    Obama had better spend 3 or 4 trillion.

  • The government is usually the one doing the screwing.

    What a sheep, government is the fix for everything! Yeah right. Government is the problem. Instead of spending money on roads, military, or schools, they're constantly wasting money on BS social engineering and environmental crap.

    The USA government has been robbing tax payers for years. Uncle sam is the ultimate unaccountable thief.

    Nice conversation, later.

  • Nice, you decide to twist my argument from government can give a hand up to government can give a hand out. Rather than talking answers you talk about small or big government. What about efficient, better government? What about big government until investors grow some balls then small government when the economy's recovered?

    I hope your kids don't take out college loans and you don't use wind power. What a sheep; too lazy to think of how to make government better so destroy it.

  • How about the states handle their business and have the power they should to run their own affairs, then a small centralized federal government that actually governs by the constitution and uses sound monetary policy.

    The bigger the government gets, the harder big brother is to dismantle.

    Not destroyed, how about an enema?

    I've adopted three Japanese kids, who will go to college with math scholarships.

    Greenies say wind turbines blow up bat's lungs, I can't in good consciousness use it.

  • Works well. Until you're in competition with or at war with an EU or Soviet Union or even a China or whatever other superpower comes. You need to pool resources in crisis. 50 semi-countries would never last in the era of globalisation. Government was *huge* during WWII -- the Feds had ultimate power. You forget this "small government" meme started with Reagan.

    What do you call social engineering then, if not scholarships? Almost anything is social engineering to one special interest group.

  • Small government is in the constitution, so how did it start with Reagan? We fought a civil war over the size of government.

    Small central government does not equal shitty military. Where do you get that idea?

    We also put Japanese citizens in interment camps. That doesn't mean every policy during WW2 was bad. Nothing today is close to the consequences of not going to war, mobilizing industry and the work force, for the PURPOSE of war. (cont.)

  • I don't really have a problem with social engineering, when it happens in families and homes. The problem is the government will ultimately use it for control. If it can engineer a society that's easier to control, why wouldn't it? It's hypocrisy, they preach to you how to live, how to be responsible, yet never practice it themselves.

    Scholarships are earned, how's that social engineering?

  • Ah, so social engineering is unearned benefits? Let's talk money. The cost of an elementary, middle school and high school education is hundreds of thousands of dollars in "unfunded liabilities." On top of that scholarships are based on random criteria such as standardized testing (invented by large national authorities) or affirmative action (your children being Japanese). It certainly hasn't been earned yet. It's given to your children in the hope they'll pay it back later with productivity.

  • Wrong. *Deadlocked* government is in the Constitution with three independent branches. Small isn't the same as deadlocked: there could be one despot.

    The Confederacy lost.

    The strongest military always come from the strongest central government. It is no coincidence that our most powerful allies the UK was a monarchy, or that it took Stalin to beat Hitler. America is just lucky we have favorable terrain (two oceans). Small government would not work in Israel.

  • Anyway, much of what you say is true. But you libertarian (or whatever you call yourself) types offer no answers. For example my answer:

    1. Gradually inflate the currency so the debt becomes smaller and smaller. Maybe in 100 years it'll be nothing. Or the same debt-to-gdp ratio.

    2. Make interest payments.

    Yours?

    1. Pay down the debt. In other words, pay Japanese, British and Chinese.

    2. If that's not possible, default. Default on obligations, default on interest payments, default on it all.

  • Anyway this has been an interesting "debate" but my vacation (sick leave) is over. I leave you with this stewy. Why not talk about efficient government rather than big/small government? Why not talk about solutions rather than this is too leftist or too conservative or too religious? It's an intellectual laziness. At the very least you should be able to articulate issues rather than leftist this or progressive that.

    Obama talks answers. Meanwhile you offer no answers, only criticism and labels.

  • The best joke ever! Obama talks about solutions.

    "Absolute power corrupts absolutely."

    Yes, go back to work and be productive.

    Have a good one.

  • Actually we fought a revolutionary war over big government and it wasn't big government but self government. The constitution deliniates the powers of the government not the size. It is implied that our government would be small. Our civil war was fought over many different issues from slavery to states rights to govern themselves. Some of the issues would have taken care of themselves. Slavery was a dying instituion in the south. It was bad for business and people were seeing that.

  • Just one problem with your argument. When was the last time you ever saw a government give up any power it had. Once you allow a government to grow big it is nearly impossible to shrink it again. As for Obama's/ your ideas on how to fix the economy, how about give the people some of thier money back and not give it to your (Obama's) friends. Why exactly are groups such as Acorn getting millions of tax dollars in the first place? If we gave the people thier money the economy would right itself.

  • Perhaps you wouldn't be so angry if you put things into perspective. America owes China 700 billion of a 6 trillion dollar debt. Japan, a former enemy of the United States, is owed 600 billion. The United Kingdom is owed 400 billion. Anyone can key "United States Public Debt" into Google and find these numbers on their own.

    I know this may be a shock to you but you can't run a national economy the same way your run personal finances. This money never has to be paid back; only puny interest.

  • You don't get it! We are 55 trillion in the hole. Those are the real numbers. The FEDZILLA keeps more then one book.

    You also aren't paying attention to current events. Russia and China are BOTH talking about dropping the $. They want a one world currency.

    Yes you can, the government should SAVE! When has spending money EVER got anyone out of debt?! America doesn't make shit anymore, we buy. That is not a good model for a long term strong economy.

  • Fine, you mentioned 55 trillion for social security and Medicare. You're talking about hypotheticals and future spending bankrupting the government. I'm talking about now, current public debt only 6 trillion. Not to mention solving social security and even Medicare is simple; forward dating benefits to 70 or 75 years old.

    Let me say again: 55 trillion hasn't happened yet and hasn't been spent, only promised. A promise that can be broken.

  • Looks like their really gonna break it huh? 55 trillion is a projected number, but guess what. I don't see hardly anyone pointing out the 800lb gorilla in the room yet. Funny thing to, not just old people draw SS.

    Entitlement debt will be America's downfall.

  • The gorilla's not in the room yet. He's in the zoo.

    The "unfunded liabilities" fearmongering is a load of crock. 55 trillion over how many years, decades? And imagine if you treated your life the same way you want the government to treat promises. Your baby's an "unfunded liability." Cost of education, healthcare, university tuition and so on would come to the hundreds of thousands per baby. Guess all babies are "unfunded liabilities" and shouldn't be born at all.

  • It's not a load of crap, wait and see.

    We might as well be beating a dead gorilla.

    I'm done.

  • BTW I'm not angry. :) I just enjoy exercising healthy debate.

  • True Islam is based off of Jew and Christian morals.. its an amendment or addition to those texts.. Please do some research before you make comments that can offend people. I'm not Muslim, but my mother is and she doesn't go around in a scarf she doesn't even prey five times a day.. only difference is she doesnt drink and doesnt believe God has a son... much like Jews. It never says in the Quran a woman has to dress from head to toe in an berka. thats a culture thing that will slowly change.

  • I do plenty of research, and no offense I don't care if it offends someone. That's not my problem but seems to be a big one with Muslims. You can't even make a cartoon with Muhammad without riots. The fundamentalist will not tolerant anyone's freedom of speech when it comes to Islam. Ah the joys of diversity.

  • Since Muslims believe in all prev prophets including Ibrahim,Mossa&Eissa (Jesus for you) we do not allow showing any prophets.Danish newspaper refused to publish cartoons about Jesus!Wt happened had everything to do with inticing/spreading hate nothing to do w freedom of speech.Freedom of speech must never be used to spread hate in society/World.Freedoms come w responsabilities no?

    If anything, thanks to rules in Islam about "others" its societies were&remain diverse

  • Then how is it freedom of speech then? Freedom of speech is exactly that. I don't care if it's Jesus or Muhammad. South Park has Jesus on all the time, hmmm no riots though.

    Funny too, where ever Islame goes, soon follows Sharia. They don't even care about the laws of the countries they move into.

    BTW like I've said before, Christians, Jews, and Muslims deserve each other. The only thing that's killed more people then socialism(all its forms) is religion.

  • Religious Dogma that no one can prove has lead to genocides, torture, and oppression. The good things that have come from religion are seriously out weighed by that one simple fact. And Islam is one of the worst. I know there are good Muslims same as all the rest, but fundamental Islam is seriously oppressive and violent.

  • what is fundamental islam exactly? There is a huge difference between what Islam preaches & wt ppl like alQuada for e.g. preach. Same goes for Christianity & Judais.Assuming that a religion is violent or evil just because some of its followers abused it is silly.Some of those who set aside religion from their lives also brought wars & evil actions so, I guess wt should be confronted are those who abuse not the religion/idea itself.

  • What happened to Timothy Mcveigh? We put him to death.

    What happens when a Jihadist blows himself up with innocent people? Whole countries of Muslims cheer in the streets and blame the Jews or America.

    Big difference.

    "I guess wt should be confronted are those who abuse not the religion/idea itself."

    I agree. That is the point I was trying to make.

  • ppl of region chose to give religions place in their lives,thats their choice,just bec u dnt like it its nt going to change,unless they want.

    Freedom of speech cant be used to spread hatred.main problem w cartoon was circulating rejected stereotypng of Muslims that theyre all terrorists,same stereotype lead to killngs of innocents some even non-Muslim by some ignorants in US.

    Only extremists called for Sharia applicatn in West nt all of us.I bet u dnt knw whats Sharia&its rule making process.

  • "Freedom of speech cant be used to spread hatred."

    Um like the propaganda on some Arab TV stations spreading hate of Jews and America? I see, It's only cool when Muslim do it.

    If you have true freedom of speech then you get to hear both sides of the story, not just the one some controlling body wants, that's called fascism.

    Sharia like Saudi Arabia? Like Iran? Or the similar Sharia in Britain or France? I understand that in it's most fundamental form it is oppressive and controlling.

  • you are assuming that the middle east is your enemy but the enemy only exists in your mind. you obviously don't know anything about the Middle east and all your knowledge about the middle east is either from YouTube or some Arab hating videos

  • Any faction, ideology, religious, and/or government that's against individual liberty is my enemy. Including how the American government has been conducting itself. Yes, Sharia law would be a enemy to me.

    But don't get your panties in a bunch kido. There's no way you can prove that the middle east isn't screwed up like the rest of the world.

    I'm sure some how it's America's fault though. Since the world isn't fucked up, just America.

  • "if you are racist to everyone you are racist to no one" the same concept is applied to the status of all the countries in the world. and second, I have lived in Saudi Arabia for 14 years and if it is screwed then how in the world is it still functioning with low gas prices, good economy and with only annual tax meaning no tax when your buying things.

  • Racist? I'm not being racist, it's just the simple truth.

    Low gas prices well duh! Decent economy, nothing compared to what America has put out, lets no forget the fact that Saudi money is thanx to the portion bought by the American oil consumer.

    The are many liberties that Saudi Sharia law prohibits and oppresses. Especially for women, but what ever. I don't care if you want to live in that country that's your business. I don't want it here in America.

  • i didn't say your racist lol i implying the concept if every country is screwed then non are screwed because the way to determine if a country is screwed or not is based on comparing it to another country,isn't that right?and not just America buys oil from Saudi Arabia, the rest of the world does, meaning first and second world countries. and you cannot decide what goes in and out of America, for example some people don't want gays but they are accepted,why?cus they are accepted by the majority

  • sidenote: actually gays are not accepted by the majority, it is a minority. Every time the people vote, they vote Against it. It's the COURTS & people in state Governments that make gay "marriage" legal in spite of what the people voted.

  • no it's a simple consumption. the majority accepts gays but they are banning gay marriage. they don't have a problem with people being gay, same goes with a race, but when gay marriage is mentioned people are against it because it's a sacred ceremony, and I can prove that by renaming marriage into something else (ex. uniage)but it's basically the same concept of regular marriage and people will accept it.

  • i just wanna say it should be banned

    it's against god's rules if you're gay

    just do a sex change that's all

    - peace

  • Ok, yes we beleive that it is against Gods will, however its not our position to say they will go to hell...God will judge everyone how he pleases...

    <33 peace and love

  • ^^ i never said that they'd go to hell

    i said that it's forbidden

    - peace on you

  • 1. "she doesn't even prey five times a day"

    - all muslims pray 5 times a day,its obligatory,not a choice

    2. "only difference is she doesnt drink and doesnt believe God has a son much like Jews"

    - do not insinuate that muslims are 'much' like jews, jews are zionist, this ideology is absolutely forbidden in islam

  • 3. "It never says in the Quran a woman has to dress from head to toe in an berka"

    -the Qur'an commands that a woman must cover her body from head to toe in loose garmets, must not show the shape of her body,to cover her hair and body completely,the clothes must not be see through, and

    this is what a burqa does

    4. "thats a culture thing that will slowly change. "

    - it's not a culture thing,&it will not change, not a single thing in the religion has changed in all of eternity and never will

  • which one of them is obama?

  • OUTSTANDING answer !!!

  • SOUND IS TOO QUIET!!!!

  • i like lollie pops

  • *Sigh* It feels so damn good to finally have a President who knows what he's talking about. Someone who can hold a foreign interview and truly represent the American People. Omg I feel so relieved. Thank God we didn't elect the old grumpy guy who's hungry for war.

  • HAHAHA! BOOYAH!!!! THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR ccsuny! lol I swear I couldn't have said it better myself. I was laughing my ass off.

    But you're absolutely right, With Obama saying that, it's hard for Al Queda to oppose it. And trust me, Bin Laden and all his loser friends are running scared cause they know Obama's coming to kick some royal ass!
