Obama's Inspiration Achievement
by viewpoint
+2/-1 Reply
Obama has inspired billions of people all around the planet to believe in the possibilities of solving mankind's problems, and to get behind those possibilities.

He has forged ahead into this mass of problems with malice toward none and with charity for all, despite being vilified and threatened by his opponents.

He has pointed the world in a new direction, combining UNIVERSAL human rights and rational problem solving.

And he has shown leadership in turning this big ship in that direction.

After keeping the U.S. economy from capsizing, he made universal health care in America his first major project. Despite the fierce resistance of the financial oligarchy, he appears on the verge of a significant victory.

Part of that progress has come because a mass of people pushed on the process through their phone calls, letters, and blog posts. A great many of these were people he inspired and asked to push.

Other projects will receive central focus in turn.

Inspiration is not easy to see or measure because it happens inside of people. But it's very real. And it has real effects. It's no accident that we often look to inspiring historical figures for direction and energy. Obama is giving people that direction and energy now.

Obama is a Soviet agent, and the anti-christ, and his voters are a bunch of degenerate thieves.

He's a racist Romulan bastard, and he hates America, hates Churchill, and has lied so many times it's hard to keep up.

He's been indecisive on Afghanistan, dishonest on health care reform, dishonest about the way they rammed through Waxman-Markey, and the stimulus.

Oh the stimulus?


Shall we talk about his projected numbers, and reality?

What about his Iran deadline that came and went?

How bout the pirate stand off, where it took Obama more than 24 hours to pull his thumb out of his ass, and issue his worthless orders to shoot only if the hostages' life was in danger.

No really he did that, and then gave an equally worthless clarification the next day, but you degenerate heathens will just keep promoting him up the chain of command.

You people are truly sick.

Half of Americans think Obama is a saint and the closest thing to Jesus Christ that we've got on earth at the moment...the other half think he's the devil incarnate and is merrily leading our country into the pits of hell.

I think he more likely fits somewhere in the middle. A mediocre president with a pleasant personality but weak leadership skills who can't seem to get anything done.

I don't know if I agree w/your 'all one and none of the other' conjecture. I'd say half of Americans care mostly about paying their bills, 13% think O'bama's (didn't know he was Irish, did you) NPP was a gross injustice to their sense of self-worth, 8% think its wayyy over do, and the rest don't really care.

The only people at refer to Obama as the messiah are the people that hate him.

Get back on your meds, lest we put the leashes back on your treacherous ass.

What is it with you Obamites always threatening to "lock-up" anyone who disagrees with your messiah? Should I take the rumors of dentention facilities being set up and Obama's own desire to create a "civilian security force as well equiped, trained and funded as the military" (stated by Obama himself at a speech in Denver CO. 7/08) seriously? I am almost convinced that I should.
Who reads those speeches to you, anyway, Michelle Bachmann?
by fkareddirtgirl

This is the second speech you've mis-characterized, with no regard for reality, as to the content thereof. But do take those rumors seriously, by all means. We "Obamites" really enjoy seeing you nutbags choke on your paranoia. Makes for great parody.
