ttom500: Fallingman....none had mentioned it as being a issue or a problem.
All self conceived inside the White House, by staff I assume.

I can understand....they just wanted to get it right.:-) And practice does make prefect.

I guess the option was to legislate a change in the day of oath to say January 30th....redo the $170m dollar day a second time. Have everyone comes back for a redo oath.....we already had attempted redo primary votes in this, so I guess a redo oath could work.....

Few REP are conspriracy theorists, Fallingman. We leave the alteration of history to the other side of the aisleway .


I didn't actually say the conspiracy theorists were Republicans but I could take the hightlighted txt above as being the beginnings of one. Every party has its own version of history. In all the criticism of Bush, I have always been amused with the idea that Reagan was a good President. That is a Republican partisan view that they try to write into history. Curiously I have more sympathy for Bush, overwhelmed as he was by problems - some of his own making.

Tater: I've been saying that he is likely to lead us into a socialist dictatorship... Was was voted the most liberal person in congress, just look at how far out there Harry reid and Nancy Polesi are, well he's worse.....


But surely this is nonsense. Just sticking labels on. He says he wants to bring the parties closer together. You need him to be radical (not left radical or right radical just radical) to do things and quick!

America voted for him. He is your president now. Your real problem is not dictatorship, it is inertia!

Socialism is just as totalitarian as rightwing dictatorship.
Only because its ideologically based instead of being based on the personality of its leader, it's more subtle, tenacious and dangerous.

Masquerading as a movement "of the people" it sets up a strong totalitarian central government and then uses it to systematically destroy all opposition and close off every avenue of economic, political, and intellectual independence.

All activity, and all thought is chained to the state.

I repeat.....like Bush, you voted for him. At times like this you need the state more than ever. Why all the paranoia about dictatorships and totalitarianism? The real issue is managing to get enough common purpose to defeat the recession!

dunno

No, America doesn't really vote anymore.
People push buttons and a machine says thank you for voting.

The outcome was decided in advance and programmed into the Diebold machines.

It's no more valid than voting in the polls at CS.
Less in fact, because the poll authors don't have any way of cheating at CS and we can't say the same for those running the elections in the US.

Antjo39: Sometimes excess of optimism and the ensuing great dissapointment are the start of utter disaster.
Sincerely apart from his sort of mesianic tone and demagogy, I would like to see in real terms what revolution has just started in the world.


Hi Antjo

Yes, now there is a really rational approach.
Wait and see. Go slow.
Don't criticize Obama prematurely, but don't praise him prematurely either.

Like it says in the song "The Gambler"

You never count your money
while you're sitting at table
There'll be time enough for countin'
when the dealings done.


Obama's got plenty of time to prove himself.
No need to jump to any conclusions, good or bad.

Ah, Obama teddybear is the blessing I have hoped for!!

"Two peacemakers get key Obama jobs
Two proven peacemakers have accepted key jobs in U.S. President Barack Obama's diplomatic corps. Richard Holbrooke, who helped end war in Bosnia, was made special envoy for Pakistan and Afghanistan, and George Mitchell, who played a key role in bringing peace to Northern Ireland, is the special envoy to the Mideast"
