It's nice to have a President who is articulate, intelligent and thinks, unlike that fool Bush. Any of you birthers have "REAL" proof that Obama isn't a citizen. Spend the next eight years looking for it, because you probably have nothing better to do than go to Applebees and eat pie.

Let's not forget that the United Nations committee denied Bush request to invade Iraq; and Bush, just like Hitler, was hell bent on breaking the laws of the US. If an average American had committed treason, they would be put to death. Don't ever forget what Bush did. Anyone who dares take up for Bush has a brain as dead as a flatline.

Thanks to former President Clinton, Mr Gore and President Obama and we must also thank Mr Kim Jong Il because without him there wouldn't be no release.

You're posting on YouTube. If you actually wanted to spread your word seriously, you'd get a degree and lecture. No one cares about your stupid illogical factless views.

Lets face it. Our president can only hold a good speech if he has teleprompters!

EwakAmerica, the CIA gets 3 and a half trillion a year to spend as they choose, not even mandated by congress. Why would the CIA need money to spend on terriorism, when Bush made sure that the largest funding pot of our tax dollars went to funding the made up BS farce of a war.

I've seen people post "what happened in the Bush administration" is the past and "move on." The day you actually forget the harm your enemy did to you, is the day you become vulnerable; and Bush was an enemy to the average American, evidenced by the fact that he LIED to the entire United States, on and on and on.
