The power of the USA is on the decline. Why? And why is it that Americans always seem to hate their Presidents. And why such opposition to Obama? If you all hate him so much then how did he get voted in?

Terrible things going on I agree! We cant do anything about everything. I dont want us involved in anymore conflict, we r in enough already. I dont wanna explain AGAIN to my daughter about what daddy is doing and if he may or may not be coming home We need to care for ourselves. Maybe just maybe. If we Americans stop and each do our part instead of exspecting leaders to do it all we could turn things around. Ask yourself what are YOU doing to remedy situations? cheers

america should be the leader in this crisies not sitting on our backside like we are. i give clinton credit when he was president. he helped the bosnians out by esblishing a no fly zone and he regretted not helping the people of rwanda. he tooked a stand to help those people(bonians). this prsident should do the same but he won't because he have to worry about the russians and chinese. i say go and established the no fly zone and to heck with those nations. also at least clinton didn't run away from crisies like obama does

tomcatwarne: absolutely, America was broke before he started, he has handled an inherited situation well.


American was broke before he started...when you are broke, do you keep one spending Tom? and if so, do you borrow to keep spending....and if that is so, do you borrow because you expect your great grandchildren to pay it back?

omgamike: Your comment is totally inappropriate.

Furthermore, we are not the world's policeman. We can no longer afford the loss of more of our brave men and women, nor our country's treasure, for not better reason than to secure the interests of greedy businessmen and their oil interests.

And as far as Japan goes, we are doing what we can, as we can. The severe danger involved does not allow anyone to ride in, shouting "Wahoo!", shooting off their six guns. Get real, man.

You shouldn't be speaking of our President this way, no matter whether he is Republican or Democrat. He is "our" President!
So by virtue of being POTUS he is beyond criticism?wow

President Eisenhower demonstrated beyond any doubt that there is no inherent contradiction between being a good President and being an avid golfer. Indeed, golf helps clear the mind, and hardly any sport is better at fostering humility in participants. So unless President Obama’s critics are willing to state that President Eisenhower golfed too much, they should stop carping about President Obama’s golfing.
While serving eight years as President of the United States, Eisenhower may have played over eight hundred rounds of golf. In other words, about twice a week.

Conrad73: Inherited?
Didn't he want the Job?
Didn't he want it so bad that he could taste it?
Wasn't he Hellbent about winning the Presidency?


No more so than any other person who has run for the office of President. All of them have to want it so bad that they can taste it -- they have to want it more than anything else in the world, or they would never survive the campaign -- nor the thick skin required to withstand stupid comments from people, similar to the one you just made.

But it is a straight up and down fact that he inherited a big mess from "W".

Ccincy: Don't you think that it's about time the USA began taking care of things over here.

I think we have dire starits of our own.

WE can't mother and father the whole world.I believe charity begins at home.

No, he is not. But there is a big difference between constructive criticism and derogatory insults. Yours were the latter.

Until any world crisis is resolved..the President should not be seen doing anything human like. He should hole himself up in the Oval office, pacing the floors and rallying the troops. professor rolling on the floor laughing

Did the American people accept a lower standard of living, did they agree to tighten their belts. No they expected a pampered life as usual, of course Obama had to borrow, and pay interest on Bushes extravigance, he is trying to hold your whole shattered economy together, and maintain your greedy standard of living. If you want to pillory him for that go ahead, it's not my country.

I have never once, on this thread or any other, said US should get involved in "COMBAT" in Libya...I have never said it because I do not believe we should....I do, however, think we should show our support, regardless of what Tom says about it being too late for a no fly zone...there was a time when it would not have been too late...we also did not get in there soon enough to suit me when it came to getting our own out......also we should have started moving our ship, that was three days away, at the on set of the uprising, not after Obama was pushed into action by his own administration, I am speaking of Hillary now.....and, you are being snide (insinuating)...it is obvious you have not read anything I have posted to the Libya threads........

I have to agree! We Americans are so worried about "keeping up with the jones" so to speak. We have to have the latest Computers, cell phones and video games. Granted Im guilty as well. Too many have to attitude of "fix it for me" no damn it fix it yourself!
