You know how them Arabs have been fighting/killing each other for 7000 years and why should he be any different just because he says he is a nigger and claims to be an unknown race called "African American".
But he has a touch of African blood from his paternal grandma, and in the USA if you are 1/32 coon then you can claim the full benefits of affirmative action.

...

Why does blackgang get a free-pass for this kind of dribble?

Is it simply because he's old or because he's old and stupid?

Shoudn't take long, looking at the situation there I reckon two or three bombs should do it.

Blackgang has a handicap pass.

The effects of inbreeding are well known, and are aggravated by old age dementia. It is not his fault he's braindead white trash. Gotta feel sorry for the guy, can't lift a spoon to his mouth without help and is a vegetable unable to focus on the computer screen without the oxygen turned up a notch beyond the doc's recommendation.

If one would care to imbibe into reality and understands how these things really work - expect President Obama to perpetuate the same old American establishment policy. Because, there is really nothing terribly special about his mind set either. American Presidents, regardless of their political ideals and identity, are forced to play this game. One thing that is steeped in the American character...there is always some "new hope" candidate on the horizon and this person will save the day with all their insight and progressive values. President Obama is no worse nor better than any other President down the pike - particularly when it comes to how they see the world and American foreign policy. Same old establishment nonsense....

This is just empty drivel, not a word about Obama's foreign policy. Do you actually have any idea what his policies are?

But he's black and now he's the president elect. I wish him well.

How is it that Obama's supposed inexperience is still (or even was in the first place) an issue?

Here's a guy that has taken every chance that life has offered him, seized it, and made every post a winner. Now compare and contrast that to Dubbya, a decidedly average guy who, using daddy's name, has managed to live a life of privilege despite being a failure at almost everything he has ever done; 'figher-pilot', businessman, President.

I'm thinking that this another one of your clever attempts at sarcasm. I hate to let facts get in the way of your world view, but Obama just selected Rahm Emmanuel as his Chief of Staff. That would be R-a-h-m- E-m-m-a-n-u-e-l, an American-Israeli dual citizen who actually left the USA in 1991 to join the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) duing the first Gulf War. If anything, this is the sort of person who might influence Obama to get more involved in fighting some of your above-mentioned organizations for the benefit of Israel. I find this Obama appointment a bit disappointing and disturbing because there seems to be a potential conflict of interest whenever US foreign policy affects Israel.

people have as many successes as they have failures. it all balances out. BO has and will make some booboos. He will has and will make some good decisions. That's life in a nutshell.

Sure, no doubt.

But what I don't get is how people are claiming he's too 'inexperienced' particularly when compared to Dubbya. It makes no sense.

I don't think anyone has enough experience for that office. What a weight on a man's shoulders. I owned a company and it was a strain just keeping things together keeping customers happy, employees paid and keeping service on topside.

Speaking strictly in terms of the US, I can't imagine anyone's experience being enough to deal with World War 1 and 2, the depression, a Civil War, 911, Katrina, the first WTC bombing under Clinton, Mogadishu and the Black Hawk Down situation, Reagan being shot, the fall of the Berlin Wall, economic, defense, domestic and foreign policies. From George Washington to Obama - no experience is enough to run the US or any countery for that matter. In the US you have 4 years as president - seems like on the job training to be with kudos and laurels had by all.

we define great men on how they react to major events,

Bush was a failure on all accounts, and Katrina was the final straw to show what kind of man he really was

He's a very slick guy in front of the tele-prompter. He's one of the best speakers I've ever seen. He doesn't stutter like monkey-boy George W.(Cheney speaks well too, but he is white)
As long as his speech writers are awake Barry should do fine.

This blind fawning of the President-elect is derived from the tool of mass hypnosis. Honestly, Barrack Obama probably is a pretty decent person. The Yanks could have done worst. But this subliminal promotion of "liberal", "progressive", and "change" is just a smoke screen and a deceptive manipulation that most have bought into. Senator Ombama is principally an extension of the Same Old Establishment Club. Watch over time. Observe the Cabinet choices and his true policies. Certainly, when it comes to foreign policy, expect President-elect Obama to tow the same old line....

Frankly, I believe the broad sector of American media and journalism will miss Dubya - just for the comedy relief.

in some ways, yes, US foreign policy will remain constant----support for israel, (which i strongly disagree with)---but i believe there will be significant changes in other areas......for example, there will be actual dialogue with those countries the US has had disagreements with, and torture will no longer be sanctioned by the white house. don't expect obama to make foreign policy decisions based on looking into the eyes of a prime minister and 'seeing his soul'.
