Obama, Ahmadinejad, the Economic Stimulus, and the Culture Wars

Let Obam do his job.

Char, first it is so impolite to type in all capital letters. It is considered yelling. Please use your indoor fonts in this forum.

Ron: Secondly, I want to address the comment regarding DeeDee Myers' comment. I think Obama is a very unique person; he is definitely one of a kind. By no means is he greater than Jesus Christ or God (since they are one in the same), nor is he greater than any of those people you have listed. Great yes, but not greater than.

Char, back to your comments: Why are you so afraid of Obama? He can't rape any more pension plans, he cannot cause the loss of any more homes or jobs than has already been done. Were you laid off? Did you lose your home? Were you in a position to decide to buy gas or food? Furthermore, the unemployment is not a result of Barack Obama or his policies or politics. The massive job loss, business closings and foreclosures did not happen in the past 8 days since Obama has been in ofccie. People (not inferring you) seem to forget we had 8 years of a President who allowed the rape of this country! It had nothing to do with Obama.

Chris, you scare me. Anyone from Georgia scares me. So much so that I have spent the last of my savings to get my family out of Georgia, a state where they think it is okay to call an african american man a boy and the oh so infamous "n" word. Don't fear Obama. Fear the ignorance of people around you.

People with the way of thinking about Obama as something to fear is the reason that hate crimes are on the rise. Do your research. People so fear this man that the baker in New York has created a "drunken negro face cookie," and feels that blacks should "not be offended by it." Furthermore, he wishes harm to the President.

In closing, I must admit, Obama has a lot of work to do -- a mountain high of mess to clean up that we know about. There is mess we have no knowledge of. President Bush left behind a mess that defines the word mess. In my years, I have never seen the economy this brutal. There is no middle class - just rich or poor and there are far more of the latter. This is what scrares people. Being poor, being treated unfairly and poorly. I have never seen such a lack of integrity in our leaders and how people, millions, can back a leadership that was full of lies, lies and more lies. I have never seen people so weak minded that logic escapes them. So much so they accuse a mere mortal of being a savior - blasphemy. I have never seen couples, making six figures, having to give up their hopes and dreams because of greed at top of this country. Businesses in the midwest states suffered terribly and are in many cases a thing of the past.

We have this man in office. More hate crimes is not the answer. Seceeding from the union is not the answer. We need to pray that he will use Godly wisdom and those who are afraid of him will not bring him harm.

I'd like to echo Dee Dee Myers' sentiments, but would point out she didn't go far enough. Not only is Barack Obama the most famous person ever, he's also the greatest ever. And I mean ever. Greater than Adam, greater than Moses, greater than Jesus Christ, greater than Alexander the Great, greater than the Founding Fathers, and yes, greater than God himself. And even that doesn't go far enough. The shining light that is Obama is brighter and more magnificent than the entire Universe. Ane even that doesn't go far enough.
