obama is the best ( Locked) (310)

Englishman55: When you can spell Englishman correctly then get back to me about compassion.... Otherwise live in your own insular world that is America...... as if you really give a flying figg about the rest of the world....... got news for you...... it's a much bigger world out there than you can ever imagine

Englishman55: You did..... am I offended..... not a chance coming from a seudo American

Englishman55: Then get a life and realise where you arrogance comes from

ttom500: Kid, I can see how it sounds like whining and crying. But Washington politics is a little different than countries with parliments as Canada and Great Britian. There the opposition get up and screams at the majority on many issues. Here our gov't is set up for cross the aisle agreement. The screaming comes in the public debate arena. Not in the halls of Congress. Though they have had sword play and fist fights in the same halls of Congress.

And yes when we (the people) scream here....it does sound like whining and crying to many. The old saying the squeeky wheel get the grease applies. We have plenty of squeeky wheels and they are all trying to find grease. And there are alot of American that could care less.....only 55% votes in Presidential election. You have 45% of the American voters who could care less.

I don't see Pres. O hanging, Kid. He is going to emerge from either a 1 term or 2 term Presidency as one of the most respected men in modern time in the world. Just to emerge though he has a lot of battles to fight. Not all are within the country. But a few are. Those squeeky wheels are going to complain.
