I noticed that many of the people who were Bush supporters and were often saying things like "you should support the president" when anyone spoke critically of Bush.

Now those same people are so dead against Obama and just won't get behind him even though he is the president. Very hypocritical. The 'south' had interesting results in the voting too...still half a century or more behind the rest of the modern world.

Maybe much of Obama's 'dream' could have been realized if the hypocrites would have supported him.

   

What is Obama's dream exactly?

   

Hey, us Republicans are just listening to Hillary's advice is all.



Part of Obama's dream was, and I quote:



Forgive me if I'm not so enamored of a domestic military.

   

You are forgiven.

I've a question tho. If it's a security force that's well armed and well funded, doesn't it almost by definition become a part of the military? Who gonna command it? I kinda don't see the point.

   

I think the 'dream' that he was selling or aspiring to was the 'America' of 60 years ago. The comment about the military is bizarre and sounds more like something Bush would have said.

   

if he wanted the america of 60 years ago the last thing he would be doing is passing more laws, bailing out corporations, waging illegal wars, threatening soveriegn nations whihc pose no threat to the united states, trying to socialize anything etc etc and so on, and so on

   

I've a better question; why does Obama think the USA needs a domestic military organization?

   

I think Hillary Clinton was referring more to reasonable and logical dissent between policies, and not to the sort of emotional insanity that the current right wing in the US is engaging in against President Obama. I've yet to see many cogent and passionless conservative deconstructions or critiques of Obama's policies. They may be out there but they've been drowned out by the frenzy of pure undistilled hatred that the FUX News, Palins, and Limbaughs there have been generating for over two years now.

If you want to find any sensible dissent from Obama, then these days you actually have to search out what's being written by the left-wing of the Democrats and by other American liberals. Conservatives in the United States right now aren't doing or saying much anything at all that any reasonably-informed adult should take seriously.

   

Don't try to revise history.



Wars are illegal, thats why only governments are allowed to wage them.

As for socializing...

There was a lot of money in the middle class 60 years ago. A thick band of wealthy customers for a growing economy to sell stuff to.

Not so much money in the middle class now though. So how does a government shove money into the middle class without passing socializing something?

   

for the most part, that description doesn't fit me, I've supported Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush on their foreign policy, and don't know much about their domestic policy.

I don't know much about Obama's foreign policy, does he have one?

it makes YOU sound really ignorant when you say noone on the right is saying anything anyone should take seriously. what you should say is its nothing you personally take seriously. or due to your own personal prejudices it seems unreasonable.

you cant sit there and criticize people for not being able to criticize a president properly without criticizing these people properly either.

just saying, in a sense, that "they are all stupid" doesn't quite cut it

   

socializing healthcare, will do nothing but furhter increase the budget and tax burden on americans, who now collectively owe liek 30k or something like that? cashing cheques the government cant pay is not helping the middle class... eliminating market competition, and raising taxes will only hurt them.

american prosperity was not built with socialism. it wont be rebuilt with socialism either. when markets were left free america flourished

   

50-60k individually.

Free markets created America's wealth. Free markets also created America's current problem.

   

proof? i dont think anyone in the world would call america's market a "free" one. it is heavily regulated and continues to be more and more every year. mises.org has done extensive work on this issue.

   

So it has nothing to do with out of control market speculation over housing prices or the failure of the wages of the middle class to keep pace with the market?

Perhaps it is merely free and unfree in the wrong places.
