To be honest, I am at the end of my tether with the petty, childish western democratic system that governs most of us... It's a constant never ending merry go round of lying to get elected, spending the next 2 years or so slagging off your predecessors and blaming them for the whole sorry mess, and then 2 years of lying yourself and being more interested in getting re-elected than doing your job effectively.... Politics is becoming/has become a circus of ludicrous porportions

Interestingly, no Republican I know of is impressed by that.

I agree with op.
Good post.
Repubes have nothing to complain about. Seriously, this president has negotiated more with the other side more than GW ever did. And he doesn't smile when he talks about troops dying or disasters or mistakes. If you want to see change then give and take should be reciprocal and the Gop just take.

that's why we need a good strong leader that can tell everybody to shut the fu*k up and do what is needed... im not talking of a pyscho like hitler but one that knows what needs to be done and does it... like great rulers of the past... ramsey, augustus...etc all this reelection every 8 years crap is just passing up good solid leaders and cycling through a bunch of crappy ones as of late

If you know this....again why are you so hard against Obama? See this is where Obama haters allow us a peek into their illogic.
I don't hate Obama. I just oppose his entire philosophy of Marxism and redistribution of income and Socialist programs, Universal medicine, his entire foreign policy and his bowing to foreign powers, his constant snubbing of half the country, his obvious Chicago style corruption. I oppose his social justice agenda including indoctrinating kindergartners and grade school and high school children in sexual exploits. I oppose his philisophy of placing a wedge between parents and their children as all Statists do. I oppose his callousness to babies who somehow were still alive after botched live birth abortions and left to die without any care, yes, Obama opposed even the care of those innocents even till they died. He is a complete abomination. How dare he even pretend to be Christian. we know he is not, we know he prefers Sharia Law to the Constitution.
That is why I oppose that man.
But I do not hate him. He will be judged according to his own works.

Sorry to burst any one persons bubble who disagrees with me but here goes:
You will all have to go farther back than Obama/Bush Jr./Clinton/Bush Sr./Reagan/Carter/Nixon/Ford/Johnson and oh yes, your dear Pres. Kennedy...this list should go all the way back at least to Pres. Jackson on where this madness started.
No, I will not waste my time listing everything I know with sources...you all can do that for yourselves and probably should as it would make for a Greater Nation if we weren't all forced learning what the State of Texas wants us to know/not know (go look that up too) if you had a public education like I did, well partially. But, I will say that if you spend enough time on "True American History" including Government/Economics, you'll make new friends that have names like intelligence, research, fully informed...you get my point here I hope.
I'm saying these things to spark some curiosity out of what will probably only be a select few who will and/or have researched beyond your school books at any level of education.
Also, to add, I'm not in favor of this thread as it is a redundant point that only serves the purpose of finger pointing in one direction or another whether intentional or unintentional. I can tell from the OP however, that he/she feels this thread is necessary and he/she seems to have decent intentions, that I can respect. But that is just my opinion.
The offices/departments of the US Government funded by US citizens have changed the names of almost every office/department over the past 100 years to suit its purpose...whatever that was at that time. Example, The Department of Chemistry, now we call it the FDA....lol, what a bunch of @$$ clowns (look back near the year 1909 to get answers for this one and see what has happened since). Ever wondered why the same names have been in power/politics in one form or another for over/near 100 years? Well hell, go back at least 100 years and then you'll find out why and what their interests were and still are. Then you'll start getting to the "nitty gritty"! Most of our money goes into these departments/offices. This will jump start your fiscal research at the very least.
You all really need to stop finger pointing and make an attempt to educate yourselves so we can stop arguing. At that point we can all be on the same page and have a fair discussion about US Politics, Policies, etc., and how to "really" change the way our nation is controlled/operated. Otherwise, we're all doomed to further Gov./Financial/Political disasters.
In ending, I know I will get criticized and scrutinized for bringing up these issues without backing them up. But this isn't science and we're not participating in the local science fair, these are historical facts that can be found anywhere in your local libraries or online libraries, so that criticism/scrutiny will get you no where fast with me. I'm not going to do it for you and lay it out in plain view here on ATS or any other site for that matter. If I did, that would cost ya major cheddar which is about what our dollar is worth anyway...a slice of cheese Also, I'm not being condescending, so don't take this post that way, but I personally, was raised to learn for myself and always go beyond the scope of what is being presented to me as fact. If I were to ask my Dad what a particular word meant, he would say "get the dictionary and look it up, then break out the encyclopedia and read". I'm raising my children the same way so that when I need them making decisions for me and you at least I will know they are very well informed and nobody will be pulling the wool over their eyes...ever. But the delusion is that Paul, by his very existence, will magically make it all better! "Electoral".
Just do some dam research and quit finger pointing, it's very childishedit on 8/23/11 by ThePublicEnemyNo1 because: (no reason given)

You are exactly correct! Regardless where these problems began, it is now the job of the POTUS to correct the problems AND take the blame for the failures! It's not just a "good" idea! It's his damn JOB ! Most conscious people
realize that this Muslim is a complete failure at EVERY thing he does! Makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius!

Were the schools in your area not any good also? Did you not learn that the Pres is only 1/3 of the Executive branch? Did you learn that 1/3 is > than 2/3?
If you are aware of what I state, I'll take for granted that you use the guise of "complete failure at EVERY thing" to veil your true hatred for him?
Why did the subject title of "Muslim" even enter your post? Did you intend to use it in a derogatory manner? What suggests to you that he is Muslim? Does it even matter...or do you think America is a "Christian" nation?
If I made you 1/3 owner of a business could you be held responsible for everything that business does or fails?

Let me attempt to help you out a little....
I don't know your age, and it may not be relevant, but you come across as one of the people I call "dinosaurs". The people who time have passed by and they're still worried about "Red China". Friend...we are passed Marxism, Socialism, Communism, and all the other things of yesteryear you worry about. Those things you worry about are as relevant as running down the streets yelling the Red Coats are coming, or the "Injuns" are attacking.
See how rididulous the two examples I use sound? That's how ridiculous people who worry about Marxism and Communism are. Those things are outdated, the travesties that happened under communism will never happen in this day and age. Close that chapter and begin worrying about the travesties CAPITALISM and freedom are causing. For I don't believe communism was never responsible for a tragedy that can affect the planet on the scale of the BP oil spill. Communism didn't have other countries people dying in diamond mines to supply them with crystals.
You oppose redistribution of wealth from top to bottom, but have no qualms with it going bottom to top? How can you worry about children and babies but despise socialist programs? Like it or not, we are socialist organisms...though the evil ones amongst us say otherwise. How can anyone despise Universal healthcare, except they don't care about others? I don't know what you mean about him sexually abusing children, believe me in this day and age children don't have to worry about being sexually deviated by Obama. I was a child long before we heard of Obama and we were already sexually deviated. Sexual deviation of children is the fault of.......FREEDOM! It's one of the results of people being free.
I don't know if he's Muslim or not, wants Sharia Law or not...I do know that the ONE job America is still number one in is INTEL and if any of that was true, it would be known.
