If he is? Then what?
If he isn't? Then what?
What I find of interest in those questions is this.... Our system allows for him to be wrong. Our system will not allow for him to be right... Ponder that one for a bit.....and then ponder this? No one in the last two years has factually proved him wrong on what he says concerning the direction/path that this country has taken....not one.

who cares?
he is an entertainer, if he is right, which I think he is, look at Van Jones, the Acorn thing etc GREAT
and if he is lying about everything, I mean right down to his name, who cares?
Granted the left is quite concerned because he does have power in exposure and a huge following to make life miserable for those who'd rather continue down that rose pedal strewn path the media allows Obama....but really
He doesn't have the power, the authority to control our lives.
He can not pass policy that might hurt us, or make our lives more difficult than they have been this last two years.
If he were to vaporize today, his slot would be filled.
If the free market were to take a hit like the Value-Added Tax it would effect us all, to-day

oh, and: this
I never knew why libs hated bush, just blindly hated bush, where as now, everyone I talk to, doesn't hate obama, just totally hate what he is doing, but ask about the man, and they are non-plussed.
Odd, all those bush haters couldn't really name the VP or his policies, just hated the guy.

They don't pay their dues. They claim 14 dependants on their W4's and therefore almost nothing is withheld for taxes. Then they don't file income tax and the rest of us get to pay for the services they use. Most people don't like it but Slick loves paying their way. He just won't pay my way cuz I'm white. He's racist like that.

I'm always gladdened to think of a PM I got once in the Pub. It stated how amusing/interesting it was
that Fly and I always seemed to agree on the facts, then draw wildly differing conclusions. And, to my mind, that is just fine, so long as everyone has their facts straight. It seems, now, that we are in some sort of wonderland, wherein folks can simply make up facts and feel that is alright. Obama seems to be on the receiving end of that. For instance:
1. If you believe Obama is a practicing Muslim, you are either stupid or ignorant or lying.
2. If you state that Obama wants to take away folks' guns, you are either stupid, ignorant or lying.
3. If you state that Obama is the primary cause of deficits in the nation, you are either stupid, ignorant
or lying.
4. If you deny that over 100 administrative positions haven't been filled, making running an administration
very difficult, you are stupid, ignorant or lying.
5. If you think the bailout of banks was Obama's doing, you are either stupid, ignorant or lying.
6. If you think Obama is planning, or even desirous of, subverting the nation into some sort of dictatorship,
you are either stupid, ignorant or lying.
yet, the above, and more like it, get spewed every day by right-wing assholes, most of whom are driven as much by racism and blind ideology as anything else. Heaven help us.
