  • Yeah yeah yeah Obuma .. more bullshit you gutless prick. and when you say

    God bless America, what your really saying is God bless the British Empire.. You are traitorous lying scum who hopefully will at least serve 30 years in a state pen, and you will have the company with your bitches bernanke, geithner, greenspan, silverstein etc to suck your cock.. Fuck you and fuck the Englisg scum you work for..

  • Pop quiz: Which president is the biggest warmonger and thief in the history of the United States? (hint: the answer is at 0:02)

  • "Look at all those young faces out there, those are young future officers, who are gonna put themselves in harms way... there's a good chance people in that room are gonna be wounded in the very least, or killed in this fight. " FOR WHAT?

  • "Our president likes to be on both sides at once.

    ...In Afghanistan, he wants to go but he wants to stay. He’s surging and withdrawing simultaneously. He’s leaving fewer troops than are needed for a counterinsurgency strategy and more troops than are needed for a counterterrorism strategy — and he seems to want both strategies at the same time. Our work is done but we have to still be there. Our work isn’t done but we can go." --Maureen Dowd, New York Times, June 26, 2011

  • Sodom Hussein Obama... lawn jockey for the global welfare plantation...

  • @SirWinstonChurchill THAT IS NOT TRUE!!!!

  • ya i agree, pakies are the main culprits

  • Cenk u have gotten into a dreadful habit of being overcritical... and over controversial. It was great speech but the realities remain... he is man too ahead of his time.... leave him alone already. Just for once listen... and let us listen too. TYT ARMY!

  • Cenk u have gotten into a dreadful habit of being overcritical... and over controversial. It was great speech but the realities remain... he is man too ahead of his time.... leave him alone already.

  • wow you guys are as bad as the neocons. obama is NOT your prophet. if george bush bush gave that speech you would be all over him.

  • What Bull Shit

  • i think we should just take over the world already

  • Blood is on your hands Obama supporters!!!

    There is no "change" he works for the same crooks that W did.

    TELL OBAMA TO STOP BANKRUPTING US POLICING THE WORLD!!!

  • its sick that the Neo Libs are praising his policy

    when its Bush's policy with Obama's face on it

  • @poopstreek can u shut the fuck up qween latifa

  • People need to realize that pulling out of Afghanistan is not feasable due to the on going crisis in the near east and the middle east. We definitely needed the extra troops deployed there but I hope we do not make the mistake of not realizing that redevelopment of infrastructure to the country of Afghanistan and the lack of security is the key to achieving success in the region so we can leave a better situation abroad in the entire area. If we fail to realize this, I see a bad decade to come.

  • @Visionarione Nothing you said there in any way supports your stance. Why is pulling out not feasible? Why are we even there? We accomplished what we wanted in afghanistan. Now its just a foreign occupation. Seriously the only reason we are still there is because defense contractors are making huge money...and lobbying congress to stay so they can continue. If we could beat imperial japan, and the nazi's in HALF the time...whats wrong here? Nothing. Just greed.

  • @boorens18 the nazis and japs were brave and fought and didn't fun away

  • @CanadaRocker11 I hate to be the one to break the news to you..but no they didnt fight....they did run...and surrendered..... Wow that must be a shocking realization to you.

  • obama promised to stop the war....no he added more troops...and if your for obama then the blood shed is on YOU !

  • one of the few times cenk is right about something, this is about radical elements in pakistan...he misses the reason for why we are afraid of pakistan tho, its that if radicals take over, nukes could go to hamas, and bad for israel, the reason is israel israel israel jews control the world

  • i think he's part of the system, he's gonna send these people over there and fuck up more lives. Instead, he should be ending the war and telling Afghanistan to go fuck itself, just like iraq fuckin midnighter

  • OHHHHH, the end of 2010 has some histerical surprises in store for EVERYONE.

  • Yeah, whatever. But you do rely heavily upon insults and personal attacks when you attempt to debate someone, don't you

  • The true sign of someone brainwashed by FOX News.

  • "I think it's time for you to take your geritol and go to sleep."

    Age Discrimination!!! LOL!

    And no, I sat those elections out with my Independent vote wasted maybe but still what I felt was right.

  • "Even you might be able to understand this!"

    Apparently not:

    "You are the full fleged idiot.."

    LOL!

  • GWB stole the first election with thanks to his bro named Jeb! And when your buddies run the Supreme Court, well, looked what happened!

  • Comment removed

  • The damage has been done...albeit intentionally. It's going to take years to fix what was broken....trust....faith...int­egrity... Promises were broke as it took Clinton 8 years to fix what Bush Sr. did...and there was a surplus only to be squandered in an unjustifiable war in Iraq. Let's not forget the post-Iraq war contracts...Haliburton, Bechtel, MCI/Worldcom....investor fraud..mismanagement...decepti­on..

    cronyism.

  • Name one that is not a Mormon. You are delusional. If people can vote for GWB TWICE then Obama is going to have a cake walk!

  • Oh, you mean the same Colin Powell that wasnt invited to GWB2.0?

    You say everyone else is wrong, but you walk right into your own excrement! LOL! And is it Michael or Richard? WTF! LOL!

  • Here's the thing; our country is so fucked up after 8 years of right-wing leadership that people expect the second coming of Jesus to happen overnight! Our country is so low economically, we have to reach up to touch bottom. Again, Michael Steele, was never heard of until Obama came along. The majority of blacks vote democratic anyway so how does the GOP expect to gain any ground? As for Bush and experience....he failed at every business venture...

  • Unless voters of your ilk come up with someone to run against him in the next year - President Obama will win easily.

  • If the ruthless Russians couldnt do it after years of murdering Afghans to try to, as George W. Bush would say, SmokeEm Out, what leads you to believe we will have any kind of success.

    Where do you come up with this unjustified faith? Plain and simply?

  • Mr. Steele is a hand puppet trotted out by RNC because some very perceptive person of color made the comment that their presidential convention looked like a couple of flies in a glass of buttermilk.

  • Asshole, dimwit, ignorant, jerk, clueless, dumb ass, idiot, stupid, dumb Canadian, moron:

    You've got quite a debating vocabulary there, wmgrego.

    Who, exactly, are you to determine if someone's post is worthy with your reliance on such anachronistic verbiage?

    Bush started this abortion - take responsibility for voting for the sad, little man: TWICE.

  • To all you neo-conservatives out there.....any ideas on how to reduce the defecit? You all seem to have the answers....

  • Comment removed

  • 1.85 is still less than 2.5 under bush you stupid twat. did you read my post or what?

  • HERE WE GO AGAIN. You are CLUELESS.

    Taking inflation into account your national debt at 10 trillion is identical to the debt that your government spent after the great depression, leading into ww2. EVER HEARD OF INFLATION? I repeat 10 trillion is the same as the debt you had leading into ww2 and out of the great depression. OH DEAR WHO IS UN-EDUCATED. CRAWL BACK IN YOUR WHOLE YOU FAUX NEWS ZOMBIE

  • The Bush Family Curse= RECESSION!

    Here is the republican strategy...put the country in debt among other fiascos to the point where the party knows all to well people will vote democratic in the next election....then blame the dems for raising taxes & spending to fix what the GOP created. Then, the republicans will continue to use fear & intimidation until 2012...doing everything in their power scheme to make Obama look like a failure.

  • YUP pretty much, daddy bush did it now baby bush did it.

  • "......the republicans will continue to use fear & intimidation until 2012...doing everything in their power scheme to make Obama look like a failure."

    Which might possibly translate to a viable strategy if they actually had someone to run against him. But they dont, so its really quite impotent.

  • hahahahahah, your "one-liners" that you got from fox news are not facts. I gave you a fact and you spew some meaningless rhetoric that you hear non stop on fox news. ready for this

    FACT President Bush presided over a $2.5 trillion increase in the public debt through 2008. FACT

    stick those facts up your ass for all I care. 2.5 trillion in one year. NOW THAT IS UNPRECIDENTED

  • Watch " Race for the Truth" and "The Obama Deception" STOP believing the lies ! Obama is a Muslim born in Africa.. Clinton's are both stupid liars and were both caught in their lies.. the rest of the Obama cabinet up to the supreme court are all liars. Wake up sheeple...your out of time. Troops and police say NO ..don't ignore your conscience .. you know the difference between right and wrong... you are Obama's power..without YOU they can't take the United States and kill your families..

  • "Obama is a Muslim born in Africa....."

    You really have no idea how incredibly lame that position is at this late date, do you?

  • How many of those stupid fuckheads in the audience are going to die in Afghanistan?

    Anyone giving odds in Vegas?

  • Look let's be frank--by making Bush's war his own Obama has just increased the chances for the final defeat and collapse of the US empire, at home and abroad, within a few years.

    The US is already bankrupt.

    Continuing in Afghanistan pretty reliably bodes the end of both the US and NATO.

    Naturally there is also a high risk of nuclear war, but hey, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

    Bon appetit, mes enfants.

  • Headline: Obama Escalates In Afghanistan.

    They are partying and laughing in Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.

  • You are absolutely correct....and they really matter! LOL!

  • no you are wrong you brainwashed fuck, 9 trillion before january 2010. Bail out of the banks happened in 2009, that was what 1 trillion. you fucking retard im not even from the U.S and I know more than you.

  • As a National Capitalist, I am very much opposed to the Global Socialism Agenda being spread by the Republicans and even more so, by the Democrats.

    Bush was bad, Obama is even worse as I knew he would be.

    Obama is the Globalists Wet Dream. Bush did a fairly good job for the Globalists, but he pales in comparison now to Obama.

    This crap has been going on for 20 years, since Bush Sr. and now America is on the brink of collapse due to massive Govt Spending + Govt Programs + No-Win Wars.

  • You should take a look at the Bush Impeachment hearings... evidence of the "Bush lies" to put us into a war and execute 911 . You are aware that Bush gave permission for Bin Laden's family and friends to flee after the trade center attack ? When asked, he said let them all go ! Both Bush administrations as well as others built the infrastructure of the complete collapse of the United States. Now it's the domino effect..

  • @greg357159 Bush was bad and a Globalist as well who signed Free Trade Agreements, attempted to grant Amnesty to 30 Million Illegal Immigrants, and sent the country to 2 wars for oil contracts.  To his credit though, at least he gave the Generals what they wanted and never set a time line to leave, basically telling the enemy the strategy at the same time as calling it a crisis, like what Obama just did.

    Bush also didn't try to ram Health Care and Crap N Tax down America's throats.

  • @greg357159 Bush was also a Fiscal Socialist who ran up an average of 450 Billion Dollar Deficits, but this guy Obama takes the cake. He is George W. Bush on Steroids. He's trying to increase Government on more levels than Bush ever did and Bush did increase the size of Government significantly, I might add.

    This country cannot sustain what Obama is doing. Increasing Troop Levels in Afghanistan, Govt Run Health Care, Crap N Tax, etc. this guy is a disaster on every level.

  • After speech of President Obama, Pakistan is planning to evacute real figures of Al-Qaida and Taliban from the border near by Afghanistan to the other safer cities like Karachi and Lahore, so later they can regroup and continue the terrorist activities.

    This game of Pakistan must be stopped otherwise we will always feel the danger of terrorists, What will happen if the terrorists reach the Nuclear wapen of Pakistan? Which place will be safe in the world?

  • This production of making more terrorists must be stopped in Pakistan, because Pakistan has been playing a double role all the time, from one side they are saying that they are cooperating with US and the West and therefore they get a lot of money and from other side they are still helping and training Terrorist, Taliban and Al-qaida for their own benefits. They think they can cheat the whole world by making propagandas and showing some fake videos on TV which they are fighting terrorists?

  • President Obama neends to pay more attention to the following points for the safety of Americans and the world

    1-All the bases and safe heavens of Al-qaida, Taliban and terrorist inside Pakistan are destroyed.

    2-All the schools which are making NEW Terrorist in the name religion must be closed down in Pakistan.

    3-ISI Pakistan must stop supporting and training Al-qaida and Taliban for terrorits activities.

    4-Pakistan must promise its honest and full cooperation with US, No More Games

  • Obama is a STROKE

  • They shouldn't be able to "come and get us". If the threat of the terrorists "coming over here to get us" is so great that it requires us getting our troops killed and spending billions of dollars in Afghanistan and Iraq, then why isn't the threat of terrorism so great that we stop the flood of Muslim immigration and secure our borders here at home ? They can only harm us if we let them in ! !

  • Haha worried about massive spending when it is at 10 trillion. 9 trillion spend under bush. Were you sleeping while your country was taken belly up?

  • Talking points straight from Fox News. Be more creative please. Too much to start on, but just really quick, czars are just advisors, and obama isn't the first one to *gasp* have had advisors. HC plan: so you are in favor of big corporations making a profit off the health of you and your family? The US is the only industrialized nation without a universal hc plan. Re Afghan: even during his campaign he promised to continue the fight there. Re 8% so basically he should singlehandedly fix economy?

  • Give me some specific policies of his that you disagree with. And exxamples of "inexperience and poor leadership."

  • Comment removed

  • speaking of the "race card"...odd timing on how the GOP picked a black leader to run the RNC...

  • I did, however I'm waiting for the idiots out there to say that it was a form of racism. It seems that the democrats always try and use racism at every turn and the reason the cadets fell asleep during the speech was because they are racist. Just like the reasons we don't like Obama, forget his policies and only look at his skin color - same idiots out there as always. If you can't win on the facts, throw out racism just like every other democrat out there.

  • I'm fucking sick of this horror show. Troops home now! Not tomorrow, not next year, NOW! People such as myself are getting sick and tired of the little song and dance, "Let's give him more time, sympathy... whatever" Fuck you and everyone that spews that garbage.

  • Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.

  • "Orthodoxy means not thinking--not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness."

  • "All the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting."

  • Define what that mission would look like - and stop avoiding the reality. Don't speak in generalities - be specific.

    We have tried to bribe the leaders with cash in the capitol of Afghanistan and now we are beginning to bribe the local tribal leaders - the guy with an AK-47.

    There is even a new designation for it: The 10 Dollar Taliban. You tough dogs talk a great game - but you are avoiding the fact that mass murder is the only way to really win and Democracies don't do that kind of thing.

  • There will always be an American precence in the Middle East for decades to come.

  • There is no way to win there because Americans are weak minded. They don't have what it takes to win a war outright.. They will just send more troops to die needlessly and blame someone else for it....Vietnam #2.

    Iraq-169,000 sq miles-31 million people

    Afghanistan-251,000 sq miles-28 million people

  • It has nothing to do with weak mindedness (at least on the part of the soldiers). Terrorists who do not claim a Nation are harder to fight than a Nation itself. We can't just say "There they are. Let's attack"....because there is no "there". This enemy is spread out among at least 3 Nations in separate cells that do not operate together. Our men and women are smart, tough, and steadfast....but that doesn't ensure a swift victory. It also takes patience. Most American couch potatoes lack this.

  • But in college, GW was a below average student...graduated from Yale with a low C average...

  • A low C at Yale is a straight A student at a community college working 3 jobs to make ends meet.

  • hahaha

  • Think of Obama's "smooth talk" this way:

    On average, how many Americans have college degrees? Out of those, how many majored in Language related courses?

    My point is, GW was closer to the majority of American education than Obama is. All the "high dollar" words don't mean a thing if you lose over have the country in translation. GW had his moments...sure, but people understood him because he wasn't speaking like a walking court document. I mean, have you read those things? Sheesh.

  • So... you don't understand Obama's speeches? Honestly, he doesn't use all that many hard words. lol, fuckin dumb redneck. And Bush "had his moments"? There's like a thousand different compilations of him here on youtube saying stupid shit and each compilation is totally different.

  • LOL. I never said I didn't understand him. So you FAIL with your childish comeback.

    Second, it was a racist and bigoted comeback. If you use slurs to separate certain ethic groups, in whole or in part...that's racism, brother.

  • I admit I'm a racist. Why won't you?

  • Comment removed

  • It has been, and it will always be: Democrat vs. Republican....Black vs. White...this will never change.

  • Sooooo, this mission was???? Signing another shady oil deal? My God, we are brainwashed!

  • LOL. I love the lame "oil" defense. It is always good for a laugh. I would say one big mission was taking out Hussein, however, other missions might have included..."take that hill over there"...or secure this road". HAHA this is too easy.

  • Comment removed

  • May 1, 2003..."MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"

  • Dude....he meant A mission was accomplished. Do you know how many missions it takes to win a war? I sure don't...but I know it isn't just one.

  • Then using that analogy -Truman should have made a carrier landing off Korea when the Chinese were driven back across the 38th?

    If GWB wanted to portray himself as anything less than a hero to Americans, then he wouldn't have had himself filmed for their consumption only and just shared the celebration with the US Navy and the rest of the Armed Forces accordingly.

    It was a staged idiocy - as much as "Bring it On", which he came to regret.

    The man is, was, and shall remain an idiot.

  • It does not take "mass murder" to win a war. The problem here is, and I am so glad you mentioned 12 year olds, is that the enemy uses children to fight. You can't just go in blasting at everyone. We have Rules of Engagement. While that makes us more humane, it also puts us at a disadvantage. This is why a war can't be won as fast as you nuke your TV dinner in the microwave.

    Be specific? Ok. We use INTEL and surveillance to find out who is Taliban and who is not. No torture necessary.

  • Obama is like a million times better than Bush. But dumb racist rednecks like you will never get why it's important to have an articulate and obviously intelligent person in the highest office of our country.

  • Finally....someone with a high school education! People can say what they want about Obama but at least he didn't steal the election...TWICE! Obama is literate...he can talk in complete sentences...no "OUR CHILDREN IS LEARNING." Could it be the GOP is afraid a black president will accomplish something finally, seeing how racist the GOP is!? Why do you think the RNC is USING Michael Steele for their own political gain in 2012? Wake up people...its time to think for yourselves!

  • Oh here we go again...with the race card. When people can't defend Obama's actions...they play the race card. LAME.

  • Fuck Obama! Fuck Bush! Fuck you and all the stupid pathetic trash that voted and apologize for these faggots! Me and many people are sick of your bullshit! I'm sick of having to hear the horror stories from my friends who served in these death traps. I'm fighting you faggots at every goddamn turn until these wars end!

  • Calm down bitch. I went to a shitty hs in a shitty neighborhood... meaning that a good chunk of my friends from high school joined the military and went to iraq. Most of them had a blast and they all say it was an experience. Of course there are pussies here and there who never should've gone like your pussy friends apparently, getting PTSD or w/e. Admittedly, Afghanistan is supposed to be worse but that's why it's reserved for the "hardcore" units.

  • Well boo-fucking hoo for you. You had a shitty life same as the rest of us. And no one like you impresses me. Not you, not you're "hardcore" friends.

  • Learn to fuckin read. I was getting at the fact that you're full of shit. Most people from iraq don't come back with "horror stories" about "death traps." They come back talking about how the dumb fuckin iraqs couldn't even reach the line of fire with their shitty ass weapons. And with night-vision videos showing clueless iraqis getting blown up with rockets fired from drones. Your fake ass passionate response is complete fuckin bullshit.

  • Tell me something then smart guy, how's come it takes 8-9 years to attain victory if their so fucking stupid?

  • BHO, elect me I have THE plan and will finish Afghanistan

    BHO, here is my General, I will trust him

    BHO, I am too busy to talk to my General

    BHO, I cant hear my General over my campaign rhetoric

    Afghanistan deteriorates, more Americans die.

    BHO, I guess I should find out who my General is and ask him what to do but first I will ask the rest of the world

    BHO to enemies, here is our plan, I am going to do too little too late then leave on Tuesday at 1pm so plan accordingly.

    BHO the FOOL

  • Do some people have a probelm with Obama because of his democratic polices...or simple because he is a BLACK Democratic president?! It's the latter I'm afraid that grinds people's gears!

  • It's because he's black. All the hate comments here are all made by angry white people, i guarantee. Angry white guys that are older, have shitty jobs, at best a high school education, you get the picture.

  • Another thing, since Obama as been saying that more troops were needed even before the "campaign trail". We should open up and investagation into the soldiers that have died while Obama sat there doing nothing. Even better, we should charge Obama with murder by his total failure to give the commanding generals, those that he appointed the needed resources to do the job instead of investaging the two idiots that crashed the state party. Now thats thinking like a democrat!

  • This is a bad choice,historically their will be no change in afgan.the people on the right almost always support wars and when it stsrts to get bad, and it will, they wil turn on him, terrible choice.

  • Sam's not half as cute without his glasses, it's a sad day indeed.

  • lol liberals trying to be non partisan is fun to watch

    you know they want to lick BO's balls

  • Does Cenk even know what "split the baby" means? He missuses like, an idiom a fucking day.

  • Incorrect.

  • Pakistan? You guys need to get a clue. The real enemy that the NeoCons dont want you to know about is India and frankly even that is a veil that shields the true problem: Nepal. Once you start looking into Nepal, you realize it is just a proxy for Bhutan.

    Welcome to the REAL world; this goes all the way to the top.

  • Yawn, more mindless partisan politics.

    The man stated he was going to get our troops home on day one, we elected him to do so.

    LBJ pulled the same scam during the Vietnam War."Elect me and I'll end the war" he stated again and again only to do the opposite.Oh well, I'll be cleaning my guns, let me know when you guys are ready.

  • OBOMBA

  • wow... this whole world is upside-down. fuck Obama and Bush and all their supporters.

  • Just as long as the corrupt people don't try to bomb us.

  • You,Brzeznsky,Kisinger,Greensp­an,Bush,Rockefellers,The CFR,The Banks and all you corporate and Bank backing bastards are World Government dreaming scums.And the Founders warned of bastards like you.LEAVE!

  • Obama you are a deceitful,Manipulative backstabbing,globalist FUCK!Take your globalization dreams just like all your other Plutocrat/Oligarch friends and SHOVE THEM STRAIGHT UP YOUR FAGGOT ASSES!

  • The heroin industry and its organized crime network is far more dangerous than al-Qaida or the Taliban, the latter being the only example of a government successfully ending opium production in their country---why do you think they had to be overthrown.

  • @MustafaPresents Was it the heroin industry that killed approximately 3,000 Americans on 9/11?

  • It wasn't the Taliban that killed Americans on 9/11 either. In fact, they offered to hand over Bin Laden.

    This war continues for corporate greed - the Trans-Afghanistan pipeline.

    The neo-American empire, the new Romans.

  • I never said it was the Taliban.

  • Then who?!

  • I never said it was anyone, but if you don't know it was Al Qaeda.

  • Define "victory in Afghanistan."

    Times up.

  • When the business interest of the country and the 'coalitions' are safely protected with american bases permanantly policed with american lives.

  • The only reason we invaded Iraq was to remove Saddam so he would'nt control the oil markets...Iraq does have the second richest volume of reserves next to Saudi Arabia. This entire operation is for "Black Gold....Texas Tea." And remember when Bush said capturing Bin Laden was not his top priority. Hitler's desire for oil and the Nazi war machine was the reason he instigated a war with Stalin...OPERATION BARBAROSSA...

  • Islam is a cult created by a psychopath. It cannot be reformed. It must be eradicated. Islam must be eradicated not because the Quran says Earth is flat or the shooting stars are missiles that Allah fires at the Jinns who climb the heaven to eavesdrop on the conversation of the exalted assembly. These stupid tales could even amuse us. Islam must go because it teaches hate, it orders killing of non-Muslims, it denigrates women and it violates the human rights.

  • So basically, you are advocating the murder of 1.3 billion human beings?

  • He just told the Taliban to lay low for a while, we will quit in about a year

  • Not at all,Sweetheart.

    Post 'em straight to my page,I am sure you will find yourself tastefully accomadated....

  • If Bush gave this same speech--liberals would be crapping their pants. Does anyone else see how the partisan wool is blinding the majority of this country?

  • Man these independent reporters are that anti-bush/conservative and they still never stumbled onto the truth of the attacks? I think that sharp drop O saw in the polls in that first month where the people who wanted to see W and co. burn for their horrendous crimes. The most powerful military force on the planet will outnumber Taliban by 12/1 now, and the smart money says we will be told a year from now that it is still not enough.

  • Fucking Obama... been President for 10 months... no world peace, hasn't gotten us back into a surplus yet w/ the budget, no healthcare even w/ all of the constructive criticism from the Republicans, hasn't gotten the unemployment rate to 0%, and the list goes on. Why Obama? Why Obama? These are reasonable request and it's taking too long. Aren't I being realistic?!!!

  • Mplay - I hope you are being sarcastic...I think you are. The right and conserva-dems are hijacking our votes. Join us in Washington DC on Jan 15th for a march in support of Obama and our vote. We may not agree with every single thing but that would be impossible for anyone to do. Find us on Facebook - search for Countdown to Jan 15th.

  • Wow, maybe you forgot the promise he made regarding if we give him 787 Billion of our tax money, the unemployment will not go above 8%. Or, how about the promise of transparency. Yes, I guess many seem ignore these broken promises, however the rest of "us" simply expect him to keep his word, to uphold his promise to us and to deliver the promise of "change". I guess I'm not being "realistic" about these "reasonable" requests . . . or should I just continue to blame it on Bush?

  • Two years ago or so all Obama could do is say we were in the wrong country. Now it takes Obama 5 months or longer to actually give his generals part of what they requested. I wish we would only had given "part" of the bailouts, TARP and stimulus so we could have saved the taxpayers of this country some real money. Nothing like announcing we will give you these, but they will leave in 18 months - that makes sense to everyone??

  • you didn't make a part just said a lot random thoughts... you don't make any sense. make clear statements, please.

  • Maybe you never heard Obama say that Iraq is the wrong country, we should be in Afghanistan. Now of course we are there, and it has taken Obama almost 5 months to grant the requests from his generals - is that clear enough? The promises of less unemployment if we pass the stimulus - another failed spending bill - is that not clear? I want you to take this job, take on the extra responsibility and put your life on the line and in 18 months I will fire you - that is what Obama to the troops.

  • Hillary Clinton has more balls and resolve then this joker.

    Sad thing is the whole world knows it.

    Iran said they are building 10 more enrichment facilities for weapons grade plutonium,

    N Korea keeps shooting missiles off in war stance,

    We have pirates jacking our cargoships. Fucking PIRATES for the love of god!!

    Bottom line is dont rely on this administration to keep you and your family safe, those that are are enemies know we have a incredibly weak administration and are showing it.

  • Greed is the basis of ships getting hijacked by pirates - per captains, trying to short course their ships too close to the Somalian coast - to save time and fuel - to increase their trip-end bonuses.

    Please attempt to buy a clue.

  • What would be "a strong president?"

    Who is the enemy? Does he sleep within the protection of the general population of Afghanistan?

    Just how ruthless do you think Obama should be in prosecuting this Seventh Crusade?

    Are you in favor of murdering the entire society to win a hollow victory? Many super-powers (of their time) have tried and failed over the last three centuries.

  • for the first time I actually agreed with TYT

  • Did you watch the 2008 debates?? President Obama DID say he would send more troops to Afghanistan. During his campaign he made that perfectly clear many times ..

    If you are anti-war, i understand. But president Obama has not lied or broken promises regarding this.

  • No, i think he did. On October 27, 2007 O assured voters: Quote: "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." No deposit, no return, eh? The you tube clip i found is called, Obama promises to end the war, 2007

  • cleancutchaos:

    Nah, that's bullshit man. He was talking about Iraq.

    That's why the clip was edited down to 15 seconds. To misframe it.

  • I'm not pro-war..I'm just telling the truth.

    I watched every single presidential debate of 2008.President Obama promised to redouble efforts in Afghanistan if elected.

    Fact check it.

  • Letter to all prior Obama supporters. Why are you suprised? Didn't you ever look at his voting record before he became president? Letter to TYT. You just want to beleive so bad. Just admit you were wrong and move on to someone whose voting record is in step with the constitution.

  • should pull all troops out send all the flip flop, bacon dodging scum back, and turn into a ashtray

  • Obama is no better than Bush. I mean WTF has this asshat done? And what enumerated power granted to the federal government allows them to use treasury funds for bailing out corporations, deciding who their CEO should be, and taking controlling shares of their stock?

    Where in the Constitution is the federal government granted the power to funnel public money into private companies?

  • vote for Obama = poor people cant afford health care looking for handout

    vote for Mccain = middle class people, pays all taxes, can afford good health care, etc

    Obama fooled you hes full of empty promises, nothing is free in life including hes healthcare plan think about it 1 TRILLION dollars!!!! Did u really hate Bush that much? now look who is fucking us in the ass with a big black

  • People that think that poor folk going to the emergency rooms for the flu is "free" = Fool.

    There is no free lunch, silly chump.

  • The people in Iraq and other countries dont need your help and soldiers! They all hate you for everything that you do in their countries-the people that you kill and the things that you steal!Congest -you are absolutly right!

  • It's about control of pipelines, nothing to do with fighting terrorism. Wake up, America.

  • Here begins the end.

  • Nope, he said he would end the war in Iraq, and focus on the war in Afghanistan.

  • WAR=DUMB

    ♥☼

  • It's really all about Pakistan! He said Pakistan more than Afghanistan. Why can't they govern thier own countries. US troops have been there long enough, and as much as I like Obama, he still did not convince me about sending more troops to Afghan territory.

  • Actually he said from the start of his campaign that he would increase the troops in Afghanistan to be fair.

  • all those soldiers could easily be replaced with a couple nukes.

  • Really? Ever heard of a place named Nagasaki? Hills around that city greatly deflected that nuclear blast & kept the kill rate down from what could be obtained on flat land. Please feel free to educate us on how two war heads would do the job in a country with an average elevation of 900 meters above sea level. Rat poison in bags of rice air dropped would be much more efficient, but like you Im not serious about murdering the entire Afghan population.

    Youre truly not that stupid, are you?

  • are freedoms are being comprermised,

  • you cant create securaty bye killing people they have familys that wont forget wot we have done to them an will resist to the end , wouldent you if you were under attack , this war isnt about securing the usa, its about controling you. I think he sould give his peace prize back

  • "During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."

  • Don't you have anything original to say? What a sheeple.

  • yet calling a person a sheep is the most creative use of ones intellect? I praise you in all of your enlighten understanding and self awareness . =)

  • Actually, I used it ironically because it's terminology usually associated with you NWO conspiracy theorists. My point was that although you guys always call other people sheeple (you specifically might not have here, but it's clearly characteristic of your peer group), you guys are in fact every bit as sheepish.

  • So you make assumptions of peoples ideology and reality based on a one quote? And a quote from George Orwell seems very fitting to me based on the content of the people in the film... I would say it is your ""problem"" for automatically associate other people in your predetermined classes or groups.

  • One George Orwell quote? Try five.

    And all you people act the same anyway. Once I saw your George Orwell quotes, I knew exactly what type of person you are. It really isn't that hard to pigeonhole people from YouTube. Most people are much more sheepish than they would like to believe.
