Obama is looking like a lock for 2012

  1. Obama helps with jobs. Obama saves GM, gets taxpayer money back. Obama helps get Bin Laden. Obama cures cancer, and now the right is claiming that the cancer cells have been the victims of socialism.

    Can't we be proud that an American President has done some good things? Do you all have to hate him at any cost, or fear of looking foolish? Charts and graphs galore show 'some' good stuff. Not all good stuff, of course. But if you live your life, every waking hour, hating the man and the office, then you are really wasting your life.

    I'm not real happy with Obama, said that many times. Didn't vote for Bush, didn't vote for Clinton, bad voting record I guess. But as an Independent, I say give credit where credit is due. The physical and mental stress of all this hate must take a toll at some point.

  3. I know you understand my point, but I'll reiterate. We have never had a President that did everything correct in everyone's eyes. Some of the right have every right to discuss, debate, or even object to some of his policies. As we have with every President. But to simply hate everything, well, is just a bit much. If someone were to disguise Obama's statements under the garb of another party, then there would "high ho" chanted by many.

    Spend the energy where you can logically have a debate. Get past the other stuff. We did it with Bush, as mentioned, and we are all still Americans, right? Choose the battles I guess is what I'm saying.

  4. Like half glass of water.
    Some people see it as half full while the other see it as half empty.

    Even god can't do everything right in everyone's eyes :D

  5. Obama needs to fix this Catholic birth control thing. If he and a cardinal are not walking out for a photo op, both smiling on the beginning of the next news cycle, then I want my crow rotisseried, with some Italian seasonings.

    Hmm, I'm hearing Kumbayah in the background. :)



    (point taken, even if I hate to)

  7. Agree, some sort of saving face type of interaction. Where neither is shown as wrong, but committed to America, that sort of thing. A big part of the Art of War meets the Art of Peace I guess. Don't make your adversary look bad. GOP might think about that it seems.

    You're a tool. This is due to the Fed, not Obama. Why don't you look at inflation adjusted gains and then buy a clue with your shrinking dollar.

  9. Are you still short? Right now the best thing to do is be politically agnostic and ride the Obama rally to profits.
