It is quite clear to me with Obama toying with unilateral destruction of WMD’s that he is being advised by people as vapid as he is.
Taking down the missile shields in Europe, Poland the the Czech Republic already give this guy a failing grade. Talking with N Korea and Iran have certainly worth while, Dah.

Hello dear blogger,
While I have absolutely no idea who Gary Samore is and don’t even care I do have one small problem with your whole thesis. Firstly George Bush surrounded himself with Czars, don’t believe me? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyiYV2gOwjU&feature=player_embedded, you heard it right out of the horses mouth. A republican representative on Fox news. I know you wont shut down the website and I’m not even asking you to…but look; we both want pretty much the same thing for the country; for it to be healthy and strong. Bush wasn’t an idiot, he didn’t hate the country and he tried his hardest. Obama isn’t a socialist who is trying to bring down America one straw at a time. So can we maybe just stop tearing each other down and simply get along and try to make this country work?
Sincerely,
Karl
I’m not sure I get your point Karl?? Actually President Bush had more Czars than Obama as I’ve pointed out elsewhere in my blog. They didn’t draw that much ire because they weren’t exposed as his having beenbeing socialists, communists, Maoists and Marxists. So I think we are in accord. President Bush wasn’t out to destroy our country, he inherited a recession a little known fact and proceed along with unemployment around 3=4% and maintained 30 consecutive quarters of increase in GDP. All the while we heard lies from the left the entire 8 years, “the Bush recession” by the lefties. Then came the crash of the housing bubble, and there are very strong arguments that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, were started under Carter, then put on Steroids by boy Clinton. Bush tried to hold hearings on this back in 2002 all documented and sourced in my blog. The democrats that were on the take, Frank, Schumer, Dodd and Waters, essentially made the hearing about race and nothing became of them. Thanks for your comments, come back any time.
Sorry ’bout that, should have looked at the other sections a bit more. However coming back to your other points, there is a bit of discussion about weather Bush really did inherit the debt; no doubt there were a few seeds in place which helped bog down the economy before Bush ever took office but by going into war he certainly cemented the debt; so if you want to say that he didn’t inherit the debt, I wont argue that at all because there is truth on both sides but it should be clear that he did exacerbated the debt quite a bit. Now coming back to the deregulation of the banks and insurance companies…everyone was at fault there; very few representatives voted against it. So I think that both sides were to blame for the state that we are in. Coming back to a point that I made a bit earlier (which I really should have clarified up with the point but its 11:08 and I have been running on coffee since 5 AM so please bear with me) I am not totally against the war but I think the way they executed was off. Bush was a bit to arrogant when dealing with the rest of the world; we have been a superpower for about ninety years dating back to the world wars; before that we were isolationist and really didn’t have much involvement with the world. However Bush took the “world power status” and didn’t use it effectively; he didn’t follow Roosevelt’s advice “Speak softly but carry a big stick”, he practically shouted with a medium sized stick and thats not a good idea. He went into Afghanistan with the goal of “smoking them out of their caves” and he invested a huge amount of money into the war. When he found out that it was extremely hard to get Bin Laden he decided to go finish what his father had started…and he pretty much got us into a pit of super-glue. It wasn’t intentional but he did do it. Now, Obama came in and he really was too naive…if you look at all of his campaign promises he has barely lived up to any of them. Now this isn’t because he is some kind of evil shadow who lied his way through the campaign; its because he promised the American people the sky and the sky is hard to get. Now…since the liberals have taken plenty of pot shots at Bush I have no objection to this sight; however maybe we could give Obama a chance? And if he doesn’t work out…well thats what the elections are for.
Once again with sympathy and understanding,
Karl
Oh and also, this is my last post for tonight because I’m literally falling out of my chair, I think that your accusation of all of Obama’s czars being socialists probably isn’t that accurate. I will do some more research tomorrow because my brain is dead right now.
Karl
Haha! This is an epic debate between Karl and “dancingczars” and I have to say, Karl defiently won. Love how dancingczars stopped responding…
Anyway, all I can say is good job Karl. Dancingczars probably thinks this Samore guy is a communist too cause of that thread that’s going around on the internet. Some people fall for anything…
Ah yes, we welcome Anne Radcliffe to the debate, thus far she has added nothing, probably ignorant and uneducated, I’ve challenged her in a personal note to prove me wrong.
And Karl I will never give somebody that you and I know nothing good about a break, he is a poser, follows a socialist agenda, is bad for America, has no understanding of the relationship between taxation and growing an economy, he is destined to replace Jimmy Carter as the worst “illegal resident” in history. As for Teddy Roosevelt, he was just another progressive. Can you name positive things he accomplished? I must admit I’m not a student of his like I am FDR so I’d be happy to be enlightened. Jim
Okay…well, I’m not ignorant and uneducated because I’ve waited for you to update the posts. Online debates are usually between TWO people, not just one…So, there’s your first problem. Also, you never really answered my question about whether Samore is a “retired communist” or not. ‘Cause you sure seem to believe everything on that little thread that’s going around the internet, which in some parts is extremely racist and homophobic. The slurs against people on it are incredible. Are we living in an era of Mcarthyism?
