kinda falls into the "duh" category. It's virtually everyone's fantasy to go in guns blazing, stop the bad guys and get the girl.

Wake the fuck up because you're dreaming.

The reality is that you're more likely to be killed or get more innocents killed.

Coffee and beer are probably what has saved me from suffering the curse of kidney stones the males in my clan have dealt with all sober and following doctor's ill-informed suggestions! Oh yeah, NEWSFLASH:Salts' OK for ya, too and margarine tastes like suet and renders food inedible!!

Was waiting for an optical illusion, something that wasn't there. Nope. Holy shit, camels cast shadows, and newsflash - camels viewed from above are not black cutouts laying on their sides.

Newsflash lady, the world doesn't revolve around you or even the transportation authority. Deal with it.

First off, being divisive is not the same thing as being uncivil. I'm taking this as you're surrendering the argument that Obama is rude and uncivil for a political leader, which is pure utter horsecrap. I have plenty of complaints about Obama; his alleged incivility as a political leader is utterly laughable. I don't see him going around telling people that if they don't agree with him, they're unpatriotic, not "real Americans", communists, fascists, socialists, and other nonsense. He doesn't scream "YOU LIE!" in the middle of other politicians' nationally televised speeches. Your entire suggestion that he's uncivil is partisan hackery. There's PLENTY I would criticize Obama for, but being uncivil?! Give me a break.

I'm not really arguing in the first place, heropsycho. The fact that you feel you need to passionately defend president Obama, even against the benign implication that he is impolite (the video I provided has many valid examples of this(I bet you didn't watch it)) is proof of the cloud of divisiveness that permeates his presidency.

More extreme left Democrats don't like him so much, so that makes Obama divisive?! Newsflash - they don't care for him so much because he's governed as a moderate. You know, the type of politics most people in this country agree with when asked without being mislead by the media. His signature legislation, Obamacare, broadened Medicaid rolls by a few million people, while limiting tax deductible benefits related to health care that wealthier income people benefit from the most, such as Cadillac health plans and capping FSA yearly contributions. It was the most moderate health reform being discussed. Put it up against single payer or government option, and it is remarkably moderate. Extreme left Democrats didn't like it? COLOR ME SHOCKED!

If Obama is moderate, why are all of his appointees extreme left? The far left should be pleased with his presidency, but the portrait they are painting is of a disinterested narcissist who couldn't lead a dog on a leash. Everyone drank the Obama kool-aid in 2008; they even controlled congress for two years. They should be celebrating Obama, yet there is a definite schism.

You want to know why politics is more divisive today than ever? We are now in a political climate where Obama is being criticized for taking out Bin Laden by political opponents. "Spiking the football"?! Has there ever been a more politically shallow move than that? "Man... he really has us by the political balls on this one, how on earth can we spin it? EVERYONE wanted Bin Laden dead, and we couldn't do it for almost a decade of trying, and now his administration got him... I KNOW! Let's accuse him of taking too much credit and excessive celebration!!!" Talk about manufacturing a conflict!

Do you know where the spiking the football quote came from? President Obama. He used the anniversary of bin ladens death to score some cheap political points against Romney, and so he opened himself to the criticism. If he had handled it presidentially, as a strong leader instead of using it as a partisan political play, Romney would have had to eat crow that whole week.

And please, the birther thing is ridiculous. Just stop. It was idiotic before he released his birth certificate, and after he released it, it's taken absurdity to a whole new level. It makes his opposition look even more brain dead the more they talk about it. Extreme conservatives simply wanted to latch on to anything that could disqualify him from office because he's not a Republican. Where were these people when there was talks about Kissinger making a good President?

So explain why the two examples I gave you wouldn't cause a reasonable person, let alone a paranoid one, to be skeptical?

And stop playing your religious card. If you'll accept whoever God appoints as President, then drink a tall glass of STFU, and stay out of politics. Where's your outrage for the GOP not making it a priority to protect the poor? That's certainly not very Christian either.

I'm not playing a card, I'm telling you what I believe. Last time I checked, I didn't need your permission to do that. Neither am I much into politics, personally. I follow it, but generally the choices are "bad" and "worse". I don't think the republicans are any better than the democrats, in many ways. The fact is, this nation has fallen far away from God, farther every day, and so I expect judgment will be coming fairly soon. Prophetically, 9-11 was a warning:

Sorry for the rant, but when are we going to talk about things Obama ACTUALLY hasn't done well with as President?

No problem. When you can think of any besides Bin Laden, let me know. I don't consider Obamacare to be a plus; my mother is going to lose her current health coverage and end up paying much higher premiums because of it.

Obama needs to be more polite?!
OBAMA ?!?!

Not to mention a significant faction of the GOP accuse him of not being an American citizen. And that's persisting after he provided his birth certificate!
I'm not a leftwinger, or a Democrat for that matter, but you have to be out of your damn mind if you think that politics isn't civil enough because of Obama.
>> ^shinyblurry:
I'd like him to be more polite



Obama is the most divisive president this country has ever seen. Even top democrats complain that he is a terrible leader:

As far as where he was born is concerned, it's not as if the birthers have no reason to be skeptical:

As for me, I accept whomever God has appointed. I pray for Obama, although I hope this will be his only term.

Newsflash Religious Right: You already are labelled bigots.

You may stop watching this bullsh1t at 1:29 when the entire Vietnam war is labeled as US soldiers--without any context--killing 4 million people in Southeast Asia. REALLY?

NEWSFLASH: the world has always been a violent place. Spin the globe, point to any country and there's a long history of military failures and maybe a few successes. If you're looking for utopian perfection, check the Fiction section.

RoPaul doesn't seem to know that the cult of islam has been at war with everyone around it since its inception. osama was a prick now and forever, and if we aligned with him it was to fight even bigger pricks.

NEWSFLASH 2: Right now, in 2011, the world is also more peaceful than ever

NEWSFLASH! ... everyone's brains are physically different. Your brain will be physically different TOMORROW than it is today.

I don't believe you!


There was a newsflash in the video that said that. I think it was right around the 2 minute mark.

For 40 years the Big 3 networks were all left-wing. Cable news was created by socialist Ted Turner. Now that the rest of the lamestream media has abandoned all pretense of objectivity and shills for the DNC and Obama White House, people began tuning out. FOX earned its viewership.



>> ^packo:

yep, the left took over comedies (adult anyway, sitcoms majoritywise are pretty conservative, ie not hard to find them)
the right took over news
hmmmmmmm... and propoganda relates more to what? news or comedies?
this seems so very "Ignore the man behind the curtain" to me

newsflash the guy is married to 2 other women in other states

For RedSky:-"If this was purely a GOP deal, then to revert on it this far into a Democratic presidency seems entirely arbitrary."

Your statement infers that there is some fundamental difference in either party (a wholly critical and objective look at their workings reveals a common bond and lineage merging at the inception of The U.S.) All I have seen from studying the past 100 years of world affairs and living in almost half of those is one war after another as empires are shaped, with the arms to affect these being produced by the same families or now, corporations. This is a form of genocide if you will or perhaps eugenics would be better terminology to use to describe it.

for YOGI:-I'd venture to guess that if you were to suddenly know those who were working behind the scenes to affect sudden and sweeping population control measures or who have been slowly eliminating the mental capacities and health of billions of people through chemical and pharmaceutical manipulation, you just might need to purchase some explosives to carry out the task of killing, quite a few Wealthy Deranged People. (WDP's)

We are all being duped.
Try to wrap your heads around the idea that what you think you know, is all wrong.

Here's the good news-Everything is unfolding as it is and the universe has a long time to go before it collapses in on itself or falls into some black hole or whatever it's supposed to do. Smoke a bowl.

"Ding dong, Bin Laudanums' dead, ding dong, the fascist bitch is deeeeeeead!
Bring a piton for his head, ding dong, the Muslim witch is deeeeeeeeead!"

It happened on Obama's watch, "OOOOOOOOOhhh! Now those who will have to vote for the guy who killed Osamas' numbers will grow! NEWSFLASH!!!! SOME of them will be so-called republicans, other so-called democrats. ALLLLLL OF THEM WILL BE BEING SOLD A BILL OF GOODS to ensure a relatively tidy corporate takeover of the whole damn globe.

Keep watching your televisions- sorry, telescreens.

He may be a tit, but at least he was only titting around in the "Newsflash: Sportsman Plays Game" section.

Before I make my points, I just want to say I'm not especially an Obama supporter, but with that said:

A. Beck has not been called a neo-fascist by Obama.
B. Beck isn't the President of the United States.
C. Two wrongs don't make a right.

It is not 100% accurate that Obama always sees the US as the villain. He does not see the US as the villain in World War II, Afghanistan, the Cold War overall, I could keep going on and on. You're wrong, clearly, plainly, clear as day.

Let me slippery slope you the other way - Are you seriously suggesting the US has never made a mistake?! The War of 1812 was a good idea? How about invading Iraq the last time without a plan on how to occupy it first? How about giving military support to Saddam in the first place? Bay of Pigs? Political strategy in Vietnam? Slavery? Denying women the right to vote for more than half our history?

How about I wait 10 years, and bring up an Obama policy you disagree with, and say, "See? You think the US is ALWAYS the villain, that's 100% accurate!"

How about you stop being a partisan hack and contribute something meaningful to political discourse?! Newsflash: the US has and will continue to make mistakes. Having a critical eye on your own country doesn't mean you think your country is always the villain. It means you're doing what you should be as an American citizen.
