Flip flop is what Obama does. When you can't lead, you can't bring together the two sides of the isle - he admits it here - leaders aren't born they're developed and he only has the skills to bring together like characters. Look at his history out of Chicago - it tells the sad story.

@ENTERRAPTURE20 Have you given a thought as to Extraordinary Rendition and Syria's current problems, I don't think the numbers were that high from Guantanamo but awareness over there could have influenced various things. When you quote Sp./E. & Counsel makes me think. Israel & West Bank, or a more spiritual idea, like going into E. again? Berossus & Manetho, E.'s pagan gods not present, heroes not immortal like Mesopo. where family of Ab. came from. E. stable, M. city-states. Bab in M., not E.

"Pay for the defense of Japan and Germany".Ship out industrial jobs to foreign sectors mostly to just produce crap.Undeveloped countries can only produce textiles and other limited things dependent on their standards of education.Undermining the trades and the middle classes built from the 30's to the 60's and beyond.Progressively underhanded tactics in politics,getting too personal. Lack of using media towards positive values.Hiding all the business of government. He seems like a good candidate

OBIGOT is a COMPLETE IDIOT, RACIST & COMPULSIVE LIAR.

We need to see past such divisive talk and know that it is not un-American to ask for an opportunity to make a living. It is okay for Mitt Romney to make and keep as much as he can but it is not right for him to keep me from making enough to buy some food and shelter. Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum would do well to meet me before they say that I want other people’s money or that I crave food stamps.

I thought the same. Campaigning on a negative presidential platform?
