    Impeach hussein obama!

    Enough is enough. We LITERALLY can't afford to keep him running things, and now he's shown how spinelss he is by not even going into iran when the people are begging us to. He's so stupid.

    Read a history book (or can you read?). Wars are historically good for the economy. Plus, we'd be making America safer. It's called a win-win.

    Excuse me? What pulled us out of the great depression? I know some activist historians have drawn different conclusion, but real economists conclude that it was World War II.

    God rewards us for doing the right thing. We did the right think in WWII, and we were spiritually and financially rewarded for it.

    It certainly wasn't WWII.

    This depends on the definition of "depression":

    de⋅pres⋅sion
      /dɪˈprɛʃən/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [di-presh-uhn]
    [snip]
    7. Economics. a period during which business, employment, and stock-market values decline severely or remain at a very low level of activity.

    According to this, you are correct. WWII gave jobs to those who needed it, in factories.

    However, these were not good, well paying jobs, and the standard of living, if possible, got worse. In my book, this is not good for the nation, with the exception of WWII, because of how horrific the genocide committed by Nazis was.
    Live long and prosper.
    Thanks for listening to the nonsensical ravings of a lunatic madman.

    I have a small feeling that God is not sitting around waiting for us to for attack another nation... it's just not his thing. Don't get me wrong, I am very familiar with the Bible and the christian view on "just wars" but in all truthfulness, is that really what God wants? I think that God would be more inclined to a peaceful solution to the worlds many problems; as they say, "God is Love".

    Impeach Obama for following through on TARP and other Bush programs? What an odd idea. If you wanted to impeach somebody for create deficits, nail Bush for it in the first place.

    Oh, trickery - drop the 'hussein' part. We get it - you really want to remind us of Obama's middle name and insinuate that he's Muslim - even though he's a lifelong Christian. Not that there's anything wrong with being Muslim, except to a bigot.

    I have a real big problem with the notion that international wars in which millions of people died are the Godly way to improve the economy. Not to mention the dodgy reasoning (and lack of history) behind it. Funny, the Brits were on the same side as us, but they came out of the war impovershed, as were most of the victim countries.

    Guys,
    I did not vote for him, I was/am a McCain fan.

    He made some pretty stong promises right out of the gate. Most have not been keep, or fumbled at best! Example: the 10,000 folks that were sent stimulas money (shovel program) that were dead! Not a very good idea when the quote of the day is "we dont want to be wastful with the tax-payers money"!

    I for one hope Obama becomes a good President. Right now, he is on a learning curve. I can only hope the curve straightens out before we run out of money. My great grand-kids are already in debt before they are born.

    Not a big fan of Obama, but as far as Iran goes I think he's doing exactly the right thing. Condemning the shadiness of the elections, but keeping us out of it.

    A) Iranians are not begging the US to intervene (well, there may be a few somewhere, but as a whole, no.) They want to deal with this themselves, which is exactly how it should be done.
    B) There is no reason for us to get involved. They are dealing with it. There are investigations underway.
    C) It's a bad idea.

    Look, as much trouble as is going on there now, its far and away better than many of the 'elections' (if they even have them) in African and South America nations, where protesters and political dissidents are slaughtered, and the pretense of free elections is only barely kept up.

    Where's the outrage for Obama not sending troops into Darfur or Zimbabwe? Or into China for that matter, if 'spreading freedom' is more important than reason, and understanding that having good intentions do not necessarily make good actions, nor do they magically guarantee victory.

    Oh, and if we're going with this theory that military intervention is necessary at the slightest hint of tainted elections, let's jump back 8 years ago. The 2000 USA elections. Florida. Should Europe have gotten together and invaded America to ensure free/fair elections?

    I was under the impression that a president needs commit a criminal action before he could be impeached.


    You know...the whole article two "high crimes and misdemeanors" thing in the constitution.

    I don't believe it's a criminal offence to receive a blowjob from an intern (whether you are married or not)...

    But perjury is. It's not the crime, it's the cover up. Loved Clinton but what a . He was a lawyer, he knew the law.

    Oh come on... let's not restart this particular chestnut. What an overreaction that particular case was. It's interesting to note that it didn't affect his popularity afterwards. The only people who seemed to care were those trying to chase him out of office. Entirely cynical in my opinion.

    I cared ONLY in that he publicly smeared Monica L as some kind of nut and if it hadn't been for the evidence on the blue dress, it would have been successful. I understand why he lied, but what bothered me was that he did it so WELL. I believed him and I've never forgiven him for fooling me.

    John Edwards' career is dead as well, imho, for similiar reasons.

    As for impeaching Obama, I saw bumper stickers advocating this before he took office.

    Well that's why he was impeached by the House of Reps. I call him a blockhead b/c he shouldn't have lied, he knew the law. He wasn't a pedestrian citizen caught up in partisan politics, he was an experienced politician and lawyer. I was 16 when he was impeached.Though I wasn't entirely detached like many teenagers were I really didn't care that much then, but I was listening. Looking back, I think he made some real decisions. But don't we all.

    As as disclaimer: I never really liked Clinton. He was a horrible democrat, and managed to cause the party to lose it's soul. Maybe it's because I'm left of the parties center...but I never was a Clinton fan...

    Although I disagreed with some of his policies,The blowjob never bothered me. Politicians are under a lot of stress. Politician are people. They crack sometimes. I would rather them mess up by getting a blowjob from an intern than doing something that severely effects how they govern.

    That said, Perjury is perhaps one of the worst crimes a politician can commit. There is a level of honesty expected between the public and their government, and to lie in court shows a disdain for the legal system and great disdain for the public. Perjury is actively subversive to our legal system. It is by no means okay. He lied in court and got caught. He deserved to be impeached.

    Not removed though. Good thing he wasn't. He didn't (and the nation didn't) deserve the idiotic media bonanza. But perjury of an elected official under NO CIRCUMSTANCES is okay.

    Another voice of reason! You should post more often, these boards are redder than Hilliary Clinton's tampons. (But I hope that you only voted for him to keep hussein obama out of the white house, or maybe banking on Palin becoming president, but not because you like that liberal idiot).

    And don't forget all the deadBEATS he's giving our money to!

    Disclaimer: All tthis may be moot since theres a good possibility that we could all die soon because of how unsafe he's making us. Better learn how to speak terrorist!
