Chicago is a leader in this category. Now lets' list Reverend Wright's contribution to changing this situation: 1. I can not list one thing Reverend Wright or any political/religious leader (including Obama) has done to change the Chicago family values from disrespecting to valuing life. The only thing in Reverend Wright's Good Deed Book is dust. He gets a big fat zero for his contribution.

Serious question with serious consequences - Do you think President Obama will be knocked out by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? I expect President Obama will be knocked out by the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Ahmadinejad will demand a US apology for all of our wrong doing and withdrawal from the world stage. Obama will counter with a line of "Bush Bashing" which will prove to be ineffective in countering Ahmadinejad's arguments. Result - Ahmadinejad knocks out Obama. Ahmadinejad will then solidify his role as the leader of the Muslim world to discipline the US and make the US retreat from the world stage. After we apologize and retreat, the UN headquarters will be relocated to Terhan. Our beacon of freedom will be extingushed.

I am certain they would vote to stay in Gitmo!!!!!

Every person I know is tired of Obama bashing Bush. I am also amazed when Obama, Reid and Pelosi say "all Americans are...." to justify their Bush bashing. I know they are not speaking for me or my friends. My friends and I have come to the conclusion that Obama bashs Bush because he does not know how to lead the development and implemention of a plan. He is very good at public speaking (reading the teleprompter), and he is terrible at transforming thoughts and ideas into speech, and articulating, committing, and defending a position, a plan, etc. Hopefully Obama will stop the Bush bashing and put his energy into addressing our country's issues, and become the leader with the skills, principles, backbone, etc. demonstrated on a every day basis by our military officers, non-coms, and enlisted personnel.

Now compare waterboarding to the lethal options the people trapped on the upper floors of the Twin Towers had on the morning of 9-11-2001. Their options were 1) jump from window 1000 ft above the street; 2) inhale toxic fumes that burns the nasal passages and lungs resulting in a slow painful death; 3) find fresh air only to burn to death; 4) find fresh air only to crushed to death when the Tower collapsed. Telling your loved one that you love them with your last breath. Think about the people killed on the hijacked planes. They knew they were going to die - think about the terror they endured in their final minutes. Think about the fire fighters, EMTs, and all of the first responders that gave their life trying to save people trapped in the Towers. Think about the people that died at the Pentagon. All of these people died. The terrorist only remorse was that they did not kill more Americans. Thank god President Bush authorized waterboarding the terrorists whiched saved a second attack on America, sparing 1000's of Americans the grief we felt on 9-11-2001. I vote to keep waterboarding as a interrogation tool.

He was incompetent when he was in the Illinois senate, the US senate, and now, as the US President. Just to confirm he has passed his level of competence, watch and listen to Obama when he is speaking without the teleprompter. His speech is halting, disjointed, hesitate, and incoherent, and, his eye contact is non-exisitant. Off the teleprompter, he is not an inspirational speaker, and does not inspire trust which is the # 1 reason for bashing Bush on his international trips. To talk about one's beliefs and views is difficult if one does not have a set of core beliefs and is deficient in thought-communication process and skills.

Candidate Obama endeared himself to these benefactors by stating he, as President, would prosecute those responsible for torturing terrorists. He added fuel to this issue by stating that these techniques yielded nothing of value in the protection of the United States of America. Today, it is clear that these techniques prevented the death of US citizens and citizens from many countries. Obama is so committed to his candidate position that the facts and results do not matter, and he does not want the America public to know the facts and results. I applaud and thank President Bush, our CIA and military for preventing another terrorist attack on the US while preserving the terrorist's life, health, and well being. As far as Obama, he reminds me of a dog on a choke chain controlled by the Bush Haters. I am still waiting for him to become the President of the United States, not just the President of the Bush Haters. I hope he returns to Chicago on 1-20-2013 as an ex-president. This is the change I am praying for!!!!!!

Lacking instruction, his bow was a spontaneous reflex based on his beliefs that everyone is subordinate to the Saudi King. Now that he knows bowing was a no-no, he his telling everyone not to believe their lying eyes...... The Muslim world now thanks our President for finally acknowledging what they knew along, they are superior, we are subordinate, not equal.

However, chicken is the only donor suitable for Kerry.

President Obama's bow was well documented in video and still pictures. I agree with you, the President must think the America people are blind, deaf, and stupid. What the President needs to understand is the President of the United States does not bow to anyone...Period. The President represents our flag, and we do not dip or lower our flag to anyone or any nation...Period. His bow disrepected every service member that fought for our nation's freedom starting with the American Revolution War. Final comment -the President's bow reaffirms his belief that we, America, are "nothing special, we are just 1 of 20" because his bow was spontaneous - done without thought which reflects his true feelings. There is not enough "lie coverup salve" in the world to cover up his bow lie.

I was not thinking straight, Biden only donates his time to charity. In that case, the Army Medics would have used a chicken for a Kerry's blood transfusion.

If Kerry was wounded and needed a blood transfusion, he would have been out of luck. No yellow blood. Wait a minute..... Biden might have been a match. On second thought, maybe not because Biden may have shown courage by taking on the Taliban. No, wait, it was Kerry showing Biden how to pretend to be courageous. Biden would have been perfect blood donor match for Kerry.

The United States Code Title 4 Chapter 1 — The Flag states: §8. Respect for flag No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor. I GUESS PRESIDENT OBAMA DISAGREES WITH THIS REGULATION. OBAMA'S "BOW TO THE KING" SHOWS THAT HE HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE 1000'S OF SOLDIERS THAT DIED DEFENDING OUR FLAG AND COUNTRY. OBAMA BOWING TO THE KING, APOLOGIZING FOR AMERICA, ETC. ARE ALL FORMS OF "DIPPING OUR FLAG". I HOPE ONE OF OUR VETERANS ORGANIZATIONS WILL EDUCATE HIM ON THIS REGULATION AND HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO UPHOLD AND DEFEND THIS REGULATION.

A fighting war attack on America will be swiftly responded to with deadly force. If my premise is somewhat right, and President Obama's words, decisions, and actions are taken by our adversaries as a sign of weakness, we may have more wars (fighting and fiscal) in our future. War, particularly fighting, has been a part of the human DNA since the beginning of time, and I don't think a few apologies will get our adversaries to embrace us, unless it is lull us into a false sense of security. Looking back over our recent history, President Reagan, Bush 1, and Bush 2 understood this threat, while President Clinton and Carter, and now Obama, believe that disarming and a few apologies will be sufficient to protect America. As Bill O says, "What say you?"

The loosers were unceremoniusly dispatched to their after life. This process has evolved from 100% warfare in the past to part warfare, part commerce today. In the future, strong nations will use commerce as their weapon of choice, with the weak nations predominately using the warfare weapon. There will come a time when a strong nation will wage war on another strong nation by manipulating a war between the strong nation and the weak nation. The strong nation that is weaken/defeated will be taken over by other strong nations. We are witnessing the beginning of this strategy by a strong nation coming to the defense of a weak nation, example China-North Korea, Russia-Iran-Venezula-Cuba, US-Israel, etc..

The purpose is to list every elected and appointed official (Republican, Democrat, etc.) that has taken money from a company, bank, investment firm, association, union, foreign government, lobbyist, etc. either as a consultant, lobbyist, contractor, board of director, etc. This would give every 912'er the context for that politicians' or appointed officials' agenda, bias, actions, and decisions. I firmly believe when a person gives another person money (i.e. Emanuel $320,000, $16M), the money is for 1 of 2 things - payment for a service, or prepayment for a service. This will help Obama meet his government transparency campaign commitment. I think there are a lot of transparent hogs at the money trough, and they want to stay invisible and not be identified. This will halt the double standards. Glenn, we need your help.

Just to add to your recommendation, Obama should invite the Chavez loving Hollywood folks - Sean Penn, Danny Glover, Jane Fonda, etc. down to Venezula for a group hug and photo with their favorite dictator, Hugo Chavez. Even better, they should invite President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to join the group hug and photo. Obama could then hang the photo in the Oval Office as an reminder of Americas' new role in the world.... apologetic humble follower.
