Excellent comments David! The man truly is a narcissist, so much so, that it's even difficult to fully comprehend! When he was campaigning, the totality of his rhetoric was non-defined. As you addressed, "hope and change" sounds wonderful, but as you also mentioned, change from what to what?! Hope for what?! I learned years ago in college, when working on a thesis or doctorate and and writing such, there is always a section devoted to "definition of terms", something that politicians don't seem to understand! Obama definitely does not remotely understand that when it comes to what he says and does! I think his entire agenda (which remains consistent along the same Marxist lines!) has been based upon, "I HOPE I can keep all these...

Kudos David! Great, great comments! It's too bad most, if not all, liberals don't understand this! They will stand behind the man they elected to office, no matter what he does or says! If he were Satan incarnate, I believe they would still stand behind him and support his idiocy! It's time for America to wake up to the reality of what's occurring in our country...on a daily basis! It's being taken over by all too many who do NOT believe in the AMERICAN WAY!!! Our freedoms are being eroded by the left and others! Wake up America, while we still have the freedom to do so!!!

....rather interesting...you obviously don't have anything INTELLIGENT to say...only adolescent, immature "barbs"...so long child!

It must be "funny" to you, because you obviously don't seemingly have enough "wherewithal" to respond with anything "INTELLIGENT." If you "represent" the "left" or the Liberal side of the position...then sorry buddy...you're a failure! "Discussing" anything with you is a TOTAL WASTE OF TIME! So long...and may you find some kind of respite in life! Anyone who would spend time even attempting to discuss something of substance with you...hopefully will awaken to the FACT that you're a a genuine waste of time! My advice: get a new career! Your lack of substance and depth has become obvious! My advice to anyone in the future who reads your comments...DON'T BOTHER TO RESPOND!! You'll get carpel-tunnel! He's not worth the effort! As...

FBJ...I'm curious, in what category do you place yourself? "Stooopid" or??? I am a conservative, and you know what? I'm not afraid and I don't need any one or group from the "right wing" to convince me of something or how to think about something/anything! I'm an educated person; I know how to think; apply logic; use old fashioned "common sense"; read and conduct research; and, ultimately draw my OWN conclusions! Pretty simple equation for one sincerely desiring to come to intelligent and valid conclusions...When this type of methodology is in motion, then individuals can have substantive and intelligent discussions, without the accusations, name-calling and innuendos...Perhaps "food for thought"? "Try it on" and see if it...

I am completely amazed at the naivete and general ignorance of so many people in our country! We can refuse to observe the TRUTH of a matter such as this mosque...we can attempt to hide from the truth by arguing behind something such as, "it's none of your business"...it's a matter of "land ownership"...it's a "cultural, recreation center"...etc, etc!...Let me think, did the Nazi's overtly say they were going to exterminate the Jews?! When they placed them in the "showers", did they overtly say, "we're going to gas you"?! Most of the Jews went "peacefully" and "obediently", not realizing or fathoming what was to come! Are we, in America, "blind" to what's occurring in this nation?! Are we blindly going to enter the "shower"...

Thanks for your response John...The matter of objecting to the construction of this mosque near "ground zero" has NOTHING to do with, as you say, "religious bigotry"...I don't know of "a bunch of conservative propagandists" who "decided to call it that"...I know of one, Michael Medved. Are you totally unaware of the historical significance of them building mosques where they have triumphed in some manner or battle?! I profoundly know what it means to be an American, trust me on that! I hope YOU know what it means as well. And BTW John, specifically in what way, or on what point am I "mistaken"? Do YOU have your "facts" straight and in order? Can you be SPECIFIC as to how objecting to WHERE they seek to build the mosque is...

It should be strikingly apparent of what's taking place before our eyes...even to those who would support Obama and the most liberal "teachings" of this current administration Those who continue to support Obama and his agenda, including his remaining obviously silent on the building of this mosque, either do not believe in the values and principles upon which this country was founded, or are too dumb to understand what is going on! Mr. Medved, you've hit the nail pretty much on the "head"! Your two words, "TRIUMPHAL mosque/monument" gets to the heart of the matter! If I'm not mistaken, historically speaking, these folks like constructing a "monument" to celebrate their "triumphs/victories"...what better place than near ground...

To further the sad tale of this FREE LOADER, keep in mind that once he's out of office, he will still continue to live off all of us with his lifelong pension, etc, etc....Disgusting!!!! He's a total embarrassment to this country!

This article says it all! I have never understood why Jews insist in supporting the Democrats/libs! If any of them read this article, they might, just might, be swayed to the right, and ultimately divorce themselves from their POLITICAL APATHY. I would also encourage the reading of the book, "Man's Search For Meaning" by Viktor E. Frankl, a man who survived the horrors of life in a concentration camp in WWII. Many applicable principles in the book, and worth the time to read...
