mr. obama has a nice smile and a true wish for transcending parties and our enemies around the world. a wish is all he can hope for. it will take more than fuzzy feelings and retoric. i’m sorry that he is certainly not ready to take on the world. he is a jv player and needs to take some time to learn what the real world is all about.

I hope he will like it.

johnnytoobad….

cocaine users can relapse anytime. a former crack head with his hands on the nuclear weapon button. please….

some one games a good speech and you get sold.

the truth is no president can do what is required…

uphold the law of the land. send illegals back.

do you know majority of blacks do drugs and not the casual kind. obama can’t stop that. they are doomed. no outreach from whites and no amount of restitution will make them prosperous.

this country was in the drians and will go further down the tubes…

just don’t ask silcon valley. all they care for is vc and ipo and $$$$.

I get it, he makes good speeches.
Enough already.

@33:
‘You must be a fruitbag’: Wow, very mature. Your comment should be deleted for this.
Replacing lightbulbs: Generally cheaper in the long run.
Hybrid Hatchbacks: Those rich people buying those hatchbacks fund development that will help make them affordable for everyone. At that point everyone can buy them and save money on gas.
Tax increases: The tax increases should be
Investing: This doesn’t even make any sense.
Hating the rich:
Global Warming: And virtually all scientists and scientific journals.
Ice Ages: The earth is 6000 years old so hat didn’t leave much time for ice ages (sorry, couldn’t help myself).
Doctor out of Business: You clearly don’t understand how free public health care works - go to Canada or Austria and ask doctors there how they feel about it. The government pays them for each patient just like insurances do here. It’s much cheaper in general (though has some downsides like every policy does).
Your Neighbor Paying: Do you understand insurance? Everyone pays into the pot and when things don’t work out they can take from it. Humans dislike uncertainty and like reducing risk. Take an elementary Microeconomics class and the most conservative Professors will tell you this simple fact.

But from hearing your arguments it doesn’t sound like you made it to college. Go back to AOL?

Hope? The hope is that we can drop all the cynicism, sarcasm, and hatred and start evaluating policies with an open mind. The hope is that we can try to engage the world and show them that America stands for to help ensure that we will still be the leader of the free world 20 years from now. The hope is that we can stand up and make our country into what our forefathers wanted it to be - truly exceptional. That’s hope.

‘Bush lied terrorists died! Haliburton! Cheney! Walmart! SUVs! Karl Rove, Snark snark!’

Whoa! I get it, thanks BJ the Monkey. That’s enlightening.

Well, I take your hasty change of subject to mean you and other Obama voters don’t really care if hatchbacks cost $30,000 and light bulbs are more regulated by Washington D.C. than opium?

(Yes folks, this actually is Obama’s horrific totalitarian vision for America!)

Well gosh, you must be a rich urban fruitbag, then. Because as far as I can tell, currently only rich snobs can afford replacing every fixture in their home with exotic Low-E silicon diode light bulbs and $30,000 hybrid hatchbacks, and only urban fruitbags like you can actually make use of vehicles so chinsy and pointlessly compact. Actually, you must be EXTRA rich, because you claim you can afford Barack Obama’s proposed TAX INCREASES too! Yeah, you’d probably spring for that beautiful $60,000 Lexus hybrid that gets 26 mpg instead of 24. Actually though you should forget that baby for now and get ready to start buying up stocks tomorrow morning! Based on your recommendation above that prices are ‘too low’. What a bargain you say! Invest wisely though, just so you have more money to give to the IRS once Obama is elected.

OH… HOLD ON though… WAIT a minute! don’t you liberals hate rich folks? Oh, just rich republicans… I see. George Soros is OK, because he’s a fat liberal. He, Al Gore and a cartel of U.N. bureaucrats think that ice ages are caused by humans (just the next one I mean, not the thousands before), and that my good doctor should be put out of business and replaced by a mandated government physician, fully subsidized by my neighbor. Well thank you Democrat voters, but I’ve got my own doctor, and my neighbor has enough expenses already. I can plan for my own future. Because I’ve got “hope” too! Yes indeed!

I “hope” that I can achieve success on my OWN, not by stealing from my neighbor’s piggy bank, as Obama “hopes” I will actually come to think is amenable in the next 7 months.

My comment was meant to comment on something that I thought was funny that folks from DC would find funny but Chris, you’re scary, what server room are you buried in? Perhaps we can get a collectioon going to buy you a oneway ticket to Kenya if you’re so concerned. I’m switching from the greens to vote for Obama just to piss off the KKK if nothing else.

Right on. I believe he [Obama] can make a positive change in our country, especially after the last eight dismissal years of misleadership. He inspires me every time I hear him speak.

Yes, we can!

Only too white kids could come up with way to call Obama a “bama” which when I was growing up in DC was a derogatory term for someone from the country usually Alabama. I assure you I will not be the only person to notice this.

Wow Randy I guess you are happy with the worse 14 day run of the stock market in history. The Republican administration in place has run this country into the ground. We are involved in a occupation that’s costing billions a month to fund and more troops getting killed everyday.

Republicans are funny
