Hot_Single_Dude: Actually this president have promissed all americans receiving the same kind of health care coverage as the members of the Congress oneday, and first steps have been taken already! Just imagine what other presidents have ever given a promise as honorable as that one?

I just started digging into Bob Woodward's Obama Wars.
Old Bob has picked up a since of humor since his earlier days on the Pentagon Paper and the Nixon tapes. Well he is writing on the Obama administration.
But when he calls them a "Cast of Characters"...yes he really does! You can see were his humor is going!!
But the first thing that I saw in his book was three pages into it.....he blows Dude's conspiracy theory of Taliban/GWP & REP /Suadi/alQeada right out of the water.
So let me tell the story and then add some quotes.
The time in during the 2008 Transition. Obama has won the White House and now GWB intelligence chiefs are briefing him on the threats. The are meeting in this super secret room in the FED Building of Chicago. Just Obama and the GWB's Mike McConnell DNI chief and Micheal J. Morell GWB's briefer on 911. Got the picture?
I quote; "The immediate threat to the United STates came not from the war zone (Iraq and Afghanistan), but from Pakistan, an unstable country with a population of of about 170m, a 1500 mile border with southern Afghanistan, and a arsenal of some 100 nuclear weapons."
Basically McConnell told Obama Pakistan was his immediate threat.
McConnell goes on. "It(Pakistan) was a dishonest partner on the US in the Afghanistan war."They are living a lie." McConnell tells Obama.
McConnel on the ISI "It was as if there are six or seven different personality within the ISI. The CIA exploited and bought some, but at least one sector-known as the Directorate 5- financed and nututured the Taliban and other terrorist groups."
On Predator Strikes McConnell says. "In the first quarter of 2008, only 4 Predator strike had been launched against alQeada targets. It has uncovered evidence that the Pakistani was warning alQeada of pending Predator strikes."
McConnell give Obama intelligence that the ISI was supporting the Haqqani network attack on the Indian Embassy in Afhanistan that 58 and more than 100 were injured. The US had warned India of the coming attack, but even with increase security taken the attack was successful.
What McConnel did not say or Woodward did not get access to was GWB development of the stealth helos. I am figuring that they were fast tracked thru R and D into production. Because their first mission were happening in 2007, one year earlier than the 2008 transition. Later they would be critical to the bin Laden raid. But so was this very accurate transtition information on Pakistan supplies by GWB and his people to Obama.
Does that answer alot of questions of why the bin Laden raid was kept from the Paistani? Why Obama did not share binLaden's address with the Pakistani? Why the connection of GWB/Suadi/Taliban/AlQeada is a flawed theory?

Time to rethink?
Remember a few months ago when the left leaners were all hot for wikileaks and transparency? They would have loved to have all that intel released to the public.
They don't get the simple fact that everyone in the world is not just like them. Not even the people the call heroes and pattern themselves after. They are "useful idiots" pure and simple.
Now this would be so great if this could really happen.LOL
Jeb Bush’s son wants his dad to run against Obama . .By Chris Moody Thu, Jul 21, 2011
Is America ready for the third Bush presidency? George P. Bush, son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, sure thinks so.
In an interview with The Daily Caller, the younger Bush said he's urging his father to jump into the Republican primary this cycle, and said the public shouldn't be surprised to see Jeb one day make a run for the White House.
"I think that time will only continue to benefit not only [former President George W. Bush's] record, but my dad's opportunity to run for higher office," George P. Bush told The DC's Jamie Weinstein. "Make no mistake about it, I think a lot of people sorely miss and would relish some sort of return of that type of approach to leading our country."
Two years have passed since a Bush was president. George W. Bush left the White House in 2009 with a dismal 22 percent approval rating, and his father, George H.W. Bush, was president from 1989-1993.
George P. Bush, who is pursuing a career in business but co-chairs a political action committee, said his uncle's legacy could not help but affect his father's attempts at higher office.
"For better or for worse, they share the same name, they share the same blood, and kinship, and therefore it's just difficult," he said.
Jeb Bush, who served as Florida's governor from 1999-2007, has not indicated that he will run

Pull your head out Katt...it was the Repubs that were screaming about Obama transparency with accusations of closed-door talks
jvaski: Pull your head out Katt...it was the Repubs that were screaming about Obama transparency with accusations of closed-door talks
Jvaski, you are the only one impressed with your behavior. You're not the voice of truth, just another whiny liberal trying to blame someone else for your own failures.
If you were five it would be understandable. For an adult it is beyond pathetic.

Katt, Woodward was "imbedded" into the Obama administration for its first 18 months. So to write his book, he had open access to much of the documents and persons of the White House. To be fair, the WH gave him transperency and access.
But I don't think that the WH necessarily liked what Woodward placed into print. They did not trash it. But they mostly ignore it. He is not super critical of either GWB or Obama at least early in the book.
Seldom do we get a inside view of secret transtition intell meeting of a President-elect like Woodward gives us. From the meeting notes of Obama staffer that Woodward got....it was clear the GWB had figured out the Pakistani threat and he passed the information on to the next administration.
I am only a few pages into it. Woodward book seem to offer a lot of details that lefter would like to have. With transperency the PC of the day, Woodward used it to write a detailed book. But Woodward did not get word of the Stealth Helo. I checked the index, not a word on them.
So I think that the Obama is trying to keep some high technology stuff classified. While giving PC correctness and access to the day to day operations of the White House.

Conrad73: Do you have a Link to that somewhere? Promises of Presidents ain't worth much! They don't legislate! Maybe Obama is different and was given legislative Power by the Constitution! and NOT with that Deficit he's run up!Distributing the Wealth,Obama-Style!
50 pages! And what a great cartoon to have near the end of this thread!!

My God, they are really scraping the end of the barrel, aren't they!! Trump would be a comical running mate for him though!!
