Maybe you're thinking of Alf, the Muppet. |

I'm not happy with the escalation in Afg., but can't see a better alternative, and I trust Obama has looked at it from every angle and picked the least worst action. I'm also not happy with his seeming lack of commitment wrt to healthcare. I don't know what to make of that. I agree though... Steward is amazing. Thank God for him. He does have that Nobel Peace Prize to live up to. Rob You are such a bizarre guy. You seem to think it's all about personal putdowns, when 1000's are dying and millions are at risk. Some stand-up citizen... Obama is struggling to be just that. |

Amazing set up... The same could be said for Obama and his failures. |

Amazing set up... The same could be said for Obama and his failures. I guess you haven't been keeping up. He's created millions of jobs. He's saved millions of homes from foreclosure. He's cut the national debt, and has a plan to have it down to zero by the time he leaves office. Everyone gets free health care, and by doing that, the debt will actually be reduced until it starts saving so much money, there will be a huge surplus that we can send to underdeveloped countries to assuage our guilt over being so successful. At least, that's what the nurse just told me when I woke up from a coma ............... Steve I guess you haven't caught up... the economy is getting better, Iraq is winding down, the job situation is improving. He's dealing with Gitmo. Basically, he's attempting to fix the screwups from the previous adm. -- Nom=de=Plume |
