planted Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Thanks, glad I could make you happy and laugh. Obama has an excuse for everything as well and he likes playing the blame game. They all have an excuse, that's how the game is played. The days of 'The buck stops here' are long gone. What troubles me more about contemporary politics/politicians is that there are few differences between the two parties. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And Bush did 'make the buck stops here'- he didn't put up with crap and apologize about America to other countries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And Bush did 'make the buck stops here'- he didn't put up with crap and apologize about America to other countries. Well, since we are expressing opinions, and 'good' is an opinion, (you can't know if Romney is a good man, btw), my two cents is as follows: This hatefest against Obama is awfully reminiscent of the previous election that got Obama into office! I remember hearing things like, 'Well, he isn't George Bush, so how bad can it be?' George Bush wasn't even on the ballot! People voted for a guy they didn't know just because of who he wasn't! I know I sound like a broken record, but I'm just so sick of this shit. WE NEED A HARRY TRUMAN. Israel is probably going to be at war by Christmas. Now what? Send my only son? Your only son?

Obama could care less about Israel-that is why it is closer to happening. Romney said he would have their back. IT is gonna happen no matter what- Prophecy in the BIble. We are there-look at the weird weather etc. Edited October 27, 2012 by DavidZoso Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strider Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I agree most of them are liars but I do think Romney is a good man. And Bush did 'make the buck stops here'- he didn't put up with crap and apologize about America to other countries. Part of "the buck stops here" ethos is taking responsibility and owning up to your fuckups and yes, apologizing when your screwups hurt another. Bush did not do that. This entire 'Obama apologizing to other countries' is overexaggerated anyway...it's an issue for the tin-foil hat crowd. Like flag pins and death panels, it bears no relation to reality and how the world works. After 8 years of Bush, our relations with the rest of the world were at an all-time low. The world had gotten tired of our 'blundering cowboy gone-rogue act'. Obama has repaired our relations with our allies. And he still got Osama bin Laden! America can no longer act like the big bully on the block and not suffer consequences. The Neo-Cons and GOP-Fox TV crowd don't like this, and so skew any sign of Obama being polite to foreign leaders as being a wimp and 'hating America'. Nothing could be further from the truth. Obama is not perfect and whether Romney is or isn't better qualified is impossible to know for certain. What is certain is that Obama does NOT hate the U.S. and he is not a Socialist/Communist/Muslim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I said what he said in the last debate-Romney.About having their back. Prophecy is gonna happen whether he does or not-Logic. Even if Obama gets back in there- I will not be mad at Yahweh because he is in charge-there is a reason he is in there now-although I don't like it. It is called Faith in God and I trust the Bible.
