The more I watch and read about people this morning, the more I realized America is in some serious trouble.  Never have I seen a media more enamored with a politician than with Obama.  The media doesn’t even try to hide their obvious bias towards him.

I seen pictures yesterday of Obama cultists, I mean supporters, degrading the U.S. flag with pictures of Obama.  This morning I saw stories of groups of people around Washington chanting “Obama”.  Do people realize this is a Chicago scumbag politician that is no different than any other?  I would say no based on the fact that the overwhelming majority of people who voted for him did so because of a marketing slogan.

 

In the middle of a terrible recession, Obama has no problem throwing away $170 million for a party.  If this is the “change” you think is good for America, you have a big surprise waiting for you.

Cults do not conform to logic, nor do the utterances of the cult leaders.  With time, hopefully most will wake up and see the emperor naked, but dont expect it as long as they are being spoon fed pablum from a stoned and stupid media.

Sooo I was gonna give karma and then I thought... wait a minute.... Ive known this for 3 months..... so yeah no koodos for you because you are late lol.

 

Come on man.... he talks about being patriotic .... you know paying higher taxes because the gov can decide better how to spend our money than we can.

 

this is coming from a guy that if I am not mistaken would not do the pleadge? did he even wear a flag pin durring the election?

 

The only change is spending more money on programs that are useless.... on top of the fact that the spin doctors already set him up by saying that the reccesion has been going on for over a year when up to then they were saying that we were just getting into one.... amazin how a month or 2 turned into a year shortly after.

 

But dont worry I am sure that it will be all Rep fualt if and when BO fails

 

Add to the fact your gonna get BO shoved into your face 24/7 for a few weeks now.

 

I dont have problems with him spending this money on the party.... though its kinda funny because he should be spreading that wealth of his right here... after all that is what he ran on... he should instead give this money to the Gov in form of a tax payment so they can spend it better.

 

Hes 2 faced.... Just wait till Nancy and reid get done with him....On and clinton....

 

I do hope he does something good.... just for the sake of the country.... but I have a feeling these feel good zelots that vote on a slogan are setting themselves up for a big big letdown

I'm with you ID.

This whole thing with Joe Biden being offered whichever position he wanted pisses me off more than a little bit.  It's like how things run in my school district--"Hey, you suck as an administrator, so we'll take you out of your school, move you to central office, and make you an even more powerful administrator, but one who doesn't have to deal with parents and students."

Good Lord, help us!

Both my wife and I have always been sentimental patriots.  I still get tears in my eyes during the National Anthem at times.  This year she is a bit wrapped up in the emotion and 'historical significance' of the moment, which I understand.  I have a much more sober view of today's events.  I'd be more interested if the media weren't such slobbering sycophants for BO.  I'm a little concerned he's going to start buying in to what he reads & hears (on the off chance he hasn't already).  The only silver lining may be that he'll have a chance to break Pelosi, the most dangerous person in America and the only one who's ego is bigger than BO's.

Cultish is right.  They did a segment on the news of a single mom with 5 kids making the trek across country to just be in the vicinity.  She just lost her job and financially isn't doing very well but couldn't resist driving across the country to watch this live even though she admitted she probably wouldn't really be seeing a thing because she'll be way too far back. 

What gets me is watching her with her kids standing in the cold with a two month old baby just to say she was there.   I just watched the segment with a "you've got to be kidding me" look on my face.........

I do think people have lost their senses.

I have no idea what any of you are talking about.  Obama has promised to bring change and change he will bring.  Obama will be the savior of our great nation.  He will undo all the wrongs that have every been done in this nation.  Obama is good, Obama is great, Obama can do no wrong.

Obama, Obama, Obama....

Oh by the way pay no attention to the lunatic spouting off on how soylent green is made from people.....

well this is nothing new... after all BO will take some money from the rich to help her silly so losing that job wont mean anything... instead we get to support people like this who make poor decisions

How's he a scumbag?

Also if he's no different to any other politician by being a scumbag (I'm assuming by other you meant politician rather than any person) then what difference does it make if he is, since all the alternatives will be as well?

CNN's coverage is nauseating.  Can't imagine how bad MSNBC's is.

maudlin your observation, on this one, is dead on, they are all scumbags to some degree. I guess it just boils down to if your scumbag or the other guys scumbag gets elected.
