No, I think "Barack Obama" is much sillier than "George W. Bush". Unless you pronounce the W as "Dubya", but that's cheating.

Media-saturated? Puh-lease, I barely watch the news... Obama's not the worst president; we've had worser... Besides, he's guaranteed the presidency in 2012 if Trump is the running mate. Of course, I believe I saw something where he's not running now, but I don't know if that's true.

Monty, think before you post. Here's why-
Media-saturated? Puh-lease, I barely watch the news...
There are more than 1 source of media. The internet is a media. Video games are a media. Television, not just the news, is a media. The media Pooty is probably referring to is the internet/television media stereotype that George Bush is a complete moron.
I'd agree that Obama is a bit more of a clown, or at least when eh was first elected. Shutting down Broadway for a night so he could see a play with his wife and have dinner...seriously?...
Obama's not the worst president; we've had worser...
See Kodi's post.
Besides, he's guaranteed the presidency in 2012 if Trump is the running mate.
Uhhh................ What?...................... Okay, #1, Trump is Republican. Unless his views changed or he announced that he was running Democrat, he's a Republican. Also, running mate? You do know that means he would be Obama's VP, right? He stated that he wanted to run for PRESIDENT. Not be someone else's VICE PRESIDENT.
...Unless I TOTALLY missed out on something, then my bad...
Of course, I believe I saw something where he's not running now, but I don't know if that's true.
At least this is right...
Oh, while I'm at it...

Lol at anyone who thinks their information is not media saturated. Where do you get it unless you're back to back with the president? The facts you think you know are shadows of a larger picture, if they're even true. I can make Gandhi look bad if you give me time. I can make Stalin look good. We can all make eachother look stupid, so it's bester that we drop this.

I love how Tony ALWAYS tries to use Bush as his shield when we get in to this. I NEVER said Bush was a Reagan or anything like that at all.
My point, plain and simple, is that Barack is an arrogant clown. He's been an awful President so far and unless the Republicans fall flat (which is possible) on their faces they should be able to give Mr. Clueless and run in 2012.

Doesn't mean we're still not financially burdened. We're still fighting a pointless war, and there are still a lot of other problems. Almost $4 a gallon for gas? By the time I need to start getting gas when I can finally use my license, I wouldn't be surprised if it was up to $5...

"Abstainer,

Gas has been up to $5 before, just a few years ago. We'll manage, Ireland has had to put up with $10 per gallon for quite some time (or, at least in the 90s, back when it was like under $1 for us...).

Why would anybody bring up Palestine, though? Sure, DIM mentioned Israel, but that doesn't necessarily mean the topic relates to Palestine.
I mean, I feel for the kids who ended up with those names, but the parents are the ones who wanted to give them those names. Who are we to question a naming choice by parents? My cousin named her daughter Bree, which sounds like a type of cheese. The entire time she was pregnant, my mom kept saying it sounded like cheese, but my cousin was sticking with the name. Just because a name is unusual to someone doesn't mean it's an embarrassment.
---

The spelling "Bree" makes me think of The Lord of the Rings. I'm not sure if that's better or worse.

I have a friend named Bree, and it's also a nickname for Brianna/Breanne...
---

Bree makes me think of Desperate Housewives, honestly.

If you're a human and not feeling creative, make this your signature.
A few things:
1. I'm a bit of an isolationist, so I'd rather see us put OURSELVES back together before we get involved in Israel/Palestine. When the United States is firing on all cylinders again then we can talk. Right now, I want my economy better (which Barack O-Dumbass can't do).
2. Herman Cain, son. 2012. PLEASE.
3. Bree is a hot name.

Hey, you know how sometimes when you're up on a ledge you get this weird feeling, like you feel like jumping, even though it's clearly an awful idea? Well, I just got a sick urge to name my first daughter "Kazooie."
---
Was it a car or a cat I saw?
...My friend Bree's name is...Bree. OMGWUT?!?!?
Seriously, I was saying that her birth name is Bree, but the name Bree itself is a nickname, which means it really isn't that unusual (IMO I guess).
Another example, I have a friend named Jackie. It's on her birth certificate, "Jackie". Take it as you will.

"A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing." - George Lucas
Because McCain is a crook who only cares about benefiting the rich. I'm completely against his idea to strengthen the Defense of Marriage Act because the government has no right telling us who we can and can't marry... He picks awful running mates in the hope of winning a certain demographic vote only to have the opposite effect. I don't like his policies, and he won't do anything for the middle class. **** the rich; the majority of America are middle class or poor. He's a Republican and will do everything in his power to limit our freedoms. They want less federal government involvement, want to take away practically all civil rights and liberties we have because a lot of what we do is "immoral". Did I mention that we would have continued the war with Iraq if Cain was elected? At least with Obama, he intended to stop the war; McCain wanted to keep it going and didn't have any intentions of stopping it, continuing to push funds for a pointless war and ruin our deficit even more. I can go on and on why I am against McCain becoming president, but I think I've said enough...

I agree with all of it, except the gay marriage things, as I support gay rights.
But I care FAR more for the fiscally conservative aspects than anything else. That outweighs my mixed feelings on the socially conservative front.
The fact that he's state's rights makes my pants get a little tighter.
If this man gets the nomination my car WILL have a "Cain '12" sticker on the back.

"A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing." - George Lucas
And why not, I'll quadruple post.
These are my top 3 Republican candidates for this election:
1. Herman Cain, Businessman/Media Associate/Politician
2. Newt Gingrich, Former Speaker of the House
3. Mitt Romney, Former Governor of Massachusetts
Personally, I think Gingrich would be a spectacular President, but his past and "reputation" will cripple him in this race.
I love Romney on an economic front, but the rest does concern me.
All in all, the "jack-of-all-trades" candidate in Cain is the best answer to me RIGHT NOW. I admittedly haven't researched enough, but I certainly plan on it.
Bash away, PMS.

…limited federal government is such a good thing. I despise "big government".
Dude, me too! The government does need to be taken down a notch. Let's start by abolishing the military, which consumes half a trillion dollars of our money killing people, and repealing the Patriot Act, which gives the government powers it shouldn't have.

I'm sorry, but this is not a good idea. At least, not at the moment. Now that Osama Bin Laden is dead, we face the threat of retaliatory attacks from Al Qaeda. If we were to get rid of our military, we would be completely defenseless against terrorist attacks and would be overridden by countries that dislike us. We need a military to stifle the threat of getting invaded/taken over.
We just need to resurrect Ronald Reagan. Problem solved. You know deep in the bowels of science they already know how to clone him. He could even be 1/8 his size: a Mini-Me President.

Oh, and Tony's talk on McCain screwing our deficit more than O-Dumbass already has makes me chuckle.
---
"A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing." - George Lucas
Well, if Obama would do what he promised to do when he was running for president, the deficit wouldn't be as bad because we would have stopped investing money into the Iraq War. Instead, Obama is having our troops called to other areas and spending more money!!
I mean, I'm all for equal rights and everybody being free, but we just stick our noses where it doesn't belong and then get other countries ticked off at us for interfering to the point where they want to blow us up. For example, the thing with Libya. I'm glad the U.S. wants the people of Libya to be free, but is that really our business? Why pour more money into sending troops there to calm things down? Like I said, I think it's great we want to help other countries, but our country is suffering from trying to be so helpful. XD
Obama never intended to do any of the "moderate" things he promised as a candidate. His agenda was always to maintain his staunchly liberal agenda, but the American public was too stupid and ignorant to see through it.
