all i can say is you got the republican side of it now go and read the democratic side,
also all the atrocities go and read what america did to all these countries too, of course the republicans will never say that.
america has done a lot of things the common american does not know about but it is out there if you want to read it.
an informed opinion is knowing everything you can about a subject from all sides and then making your decision.

We all know winterose is a Canadian therefore American politics are of no real concern to her unless she enjoys watching her neighbor's decline.

I wish I had something wise to add, but it's all been said. I'll just add that I have not been surprised by any of the actions our new president has taken (or not taken) and pretty soon a lot of people will have to see their mistake of having voted for him. I am proud to say that I did NOT vote for him. And by the way, did he recently send more troops to Afghanistan? Wasn't his thing that he was withdrawing our troops? I see that none of his supporters are making a big deal about that one. Ah well, it's all been predicted. I love the quote by CS Lewis they used in the article. Obama and his administration need to stop blaming everything on the Bush administration and Americans and step up to the plate and concentrate how to heal this nation--economically and otherwise. He really hasn't done a thing since getting into office except overturn everything Bush signed. That just took a pen. And, of course, I disagree with everything he signed. Anyhow, I guess I did have something to say. Just brace yourself, I think it's gonna get worse.

Gatargirl.
I didnt vote for him either! and yup ya did have something to say lol.
Not sure if he has sent them yet.
But I dont think he said anything about not sending any troops to Afghanistan, just to pull troops out of Iraq.
No mater we need troops over there. Your right he need to stop cowtoing to other countries and put energies to gett ing this country on track!

The shocking, and sickening thing is how many americans (and europeans) will actually believe Ortega's claims/diatribe... We're being, and been taught, that it's not initiative which causes productivity and success, but anyone successful surely stepped on others to get there, that one's success depends on another's failing.. I think it's because the Darwinians actually cannot conceive of anyone NOT being like this (dog eat dog).. (because that's how they are, believing they are animals). All this junk we're dealing with is because of untrue philosophy.

Obama just make me plain sick....everything he says lately seems to be putting the USA down and his supporters are so infatuated with him they are blind to what a laughing stock he is making of our country.

Maybe because Obama does not consider them attacks. Maybe because Obama is pretty good at attacking Americans himself. Like when he calls us all Arrogant etc. He apparently does not think very highly of Americans.
He treats us like we were stupid. He puts us almost 3 trillion dollars in debt and then tells Congress to try to find 100 million dollars to cut from the budget to appease us. Like we were too stupid to do the Math?

Rather makes you wonder what his agenda really is...............
But really Lakota, you can't take these Central Americans seriously. They are the authors of their own destruction, always have been, and world leaders know it, which is why they have left that area to the U.S. to deal with for centuries. So actually I don't blame Obama or Hillary for not rising to their 'bait'. I think it was the smart thing to do really. Castro is dying right now, and it's not the time to put these people in the limelight...............

It's nothing he hasn't been saying "Amen" and "Hallalujah" to for the last 20 years.

Noting surprises me from this guy anymore. It is clear to me that he hates America and Americans and is using his office to destroy everything that made this country great and all the freedoms her people enjoy as quickly as possible. Did you know that soon you may be unable to post such thing because there is legislation in the worked to give 0bam full control over the entire internet including the power to shut the whole thing down? I have a discussion about it, including links to articles so you can see for yourself if you would like to know more about this latest most outrageous threat to our freedom:
