A Great Leader

I think he's going to bring a big change to our lives give the man a chance aren't you people tired of the same old stuff for the last 8years some of you all acting like kids. this man is wanting change for our kids.So they can got to college our teachers can get an better pay.he wants change for the middle class people. I know somebody out there is tired of paying high health insurance.this man is trying to get in the office so you would not have to worry about high health insurance.anybody who has kids should think about the change this great man trying to bring into our life.

Our typical main-stream media

I am so sick of our media leaving out parts of stories and so are most of the American public. I just learned that Barack made an appearance at a rock concert in Germany. The German crowd of 200k plus was there to see the concert not Barack, but he got to pull off his speech in between bands and then act like the crowd was there to see him, pretty slick!

I hope this teaches us all a lesson. READ THE ENTIRE STORY and tell our media to just report the news and quit giving us their opinions, we don't care about them!

IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT.......

It's my understanding that the German equivalents of "Willy Nelson" and "Madonna" entertained the crowd and the reason so many people turned out. Obama's speech was delivered during the concert breaks.

American media, let's get it right

FOIE HUH?

I offer my sincere appology to any members of the goose family who were reminded of past trauma(being force fed)and express regret, that ,after posting what was and still is a spot on assesment of the B.S. from Madison Avenue ,I misspelled "Foie Gras".Funny how the only ones that complained were the French exchange geese attending Harvard.

The Messiah has now returned from his European venture - the media justalways seems to fai l to tell us about the free rock concerts that coincide wit han Obama speech. Why is that ???

Bam Bam is in trouble here now because people are catching on to him trying to be slick. He proposed slashing NASA's budget then told an Orlando audience he would increase it, he was against offshore drilling now he favors it, he was against dipping into our emrgency reserves but now favors it. yep he;s the candidate of change all right. Lots of rainbows and pretty speeches and waterfalls and heavenly choirs but no substnace. ""CHANGE YOU CANNOT BELIEVE "" as the German headlines read.... He is sinking badly- but its all his own fault. Ok blame Axelfraud too - his phony persona scheme is backfiring now !!!

As a world citizen, I choose Obama for he is enlightened with wisdom and rationalizes with reason. He will provide safety and equity, while McCain will only exacerbate matters.

As a woman, I choose Obama for I will retain my power to exercise choice concerning my body. Abortion rights is a woman's right to choose. No man call tell me what to do with my body, not even a president.

Who's on first?

As a child during "Hyann-alot", I was dazzeled by the Media Blitz that attempted to make every kid a john-john or caroline . As an adult, was aghast to discover facts about JFKs' recreational drug use in office.A generation later, the Media helped script the "storyboard" for Reagans' Brandenburg Gate speech as we enjoyed our jelly beans & were instructed to think how JFK like.Then,in review of his administration, facts about his advancing Alzheimers came to light.And now we are being force fed Obamas'Kodak Moment in Berlin ,like geese on their way to Pate'Fois Gois!

Americans are well aware of the games the media plays.

The list of past leaders Obama has been compared with grows daily and this media adoration is nothing but Obama messiah journalism.
