Great points, guys.
I was feeling a tinge of remorse at some of my comments in that they seem to be
totally taking up for Obama. But then I thought "hey, this is a debate forum."
Civil debate is the cornerstone of a true democracy. Civil is key.
Obama won on a landslide of electoral votes and a comfortable 53% popular vote.
Less than half the U.S. presidents to date had more experience than Obama and
out of those, some became the worst presidents.
I'm going to give him a chance with a large buffer for possible mistakes.
For people that only read blogs like:
Obama Would Rename White House “Black House”
I say continue to watch Hannity, Limbaugh, O'Reilly or Coulter.
I don't watch Olbermann, Maddow or Mathews either.
Will there be Obamaisms like Bushisms? Probably but they will be more rare
as it has something to do with innate intelligence, and the ability to speak English.
Obamaism: "On this Memorial Day, as our nation honours its unbroken line of
fallen heroes and I see many of them in the audience here today our sense of
patriotism is particularly strong." (Queen's English on this one.)
So what? i think I messed up once myself...today...every day.
To be continued.....
