Our answeer has been around since before mankind . The God of all creation. The book to read, the bible. The shame of it all is we have a president who will not allow a national day of prayer at the white house, and openly denies the very christian principles this wonderful nation of ours was founded on, What a shame !

I think the first priority is to concentrate on getting our service men home to their familes.

Get this war over with. We are not welcome in thes countries. And why are we trying to make them be like the Americans?

Our country has gone to pot. So many scandals going on. Our economy is in the worst shape it has ever been.

Money being spent when we don't have it.

Are we a good example to any one?

I think Pres. Obama is doing the best that one man can, given the complex problems we face in today's world. The only thing I disagree with is the constant media attention. He needs to do his job quietly, without worrying about poll after poll and what people are saying. When all is said and done, he's got the top job and no one can stop him anyway. He's never going to please everybody, so I feel he just needs to push ahead on what he feels is best for the country and stop being sensitive to media criticism.

Master of none! That's what I think of Obama. He wants to be the hero. Going to fix in less than a year everything that has broken over many many years. Doesn't work that way. It is a process and he is digging such a hole in all facets of our world that it will take longer to fix what he breaks in 4 years than it did to get here. Obama, why don't you get in touch with the real world!

I hope the present administration doesn't fall for the Great Scientist AL GORE and his global warming; they probably will with the Great Scientist BARRACK OBAMA following his mentor Al Gore.

Adding insult to injury, Gore got a NOBEL PRIZE and the non-scientific community are praising him for his scientific knowledge.

Cutting back on the CO2 won't do a thing except for bankrupting the American Economy. Global Warming and high CO2 levels were on earth long before man showed up on the scene.

It is my understanding that the H-Bomb fusion reaction is triggered by a dirty fission bomb; so how can an H-Bomb be clean?

You, sir, are an incoherent moron. The public option is a disaster and your class warfare screed hardly convinces one to think otherwise.

The English have just been told that their current NHS is bankrupting their country. Sure sounds like a good idea to emulate their system right?

Just because your feeble mind thinks everyone that works in healthcare is a "thief" doesn't make it so.

I pity you.

So you blame Mr. President Obama for what the people of America and so many other counties did to them selves? Gee I guess he convinced all those home owners that loaned out past the real value of their homes, during the last 12 years consistently, knowing a house value crash was imminent. I Guess he cut All Social Security Benefits for Teachers in 7 states after they became vested after 2-5 years.. Oh yea wasn't that Clinton Economics but lets Blame Obama for X Presidents Budget balancing act that we now live with 1/2 of American students don't even graduate High School. Oh yea lets Blame Obama for Prop 13 in California that cut property taxes to 1% of the purchase and 1% per year increases which depleted the school funding though out California so it is now one of the lowest in the United States.. Oh yea Obama convinced those Middle Class People it was best for them in 1980's to cut school funds by doing so... Yep American's have been the lowest educated in Math and Science in the developed nations for the last 5 years... OK so Obama started it before he became president of America on destroying education... Gee you think.. Oh and you want to talk about clean power... Yep Bush cut the spending for the International Thermo Nuclear Reactor - Not Nuclear for you dummies that don't know the difference between the dirty A Bomb and the Clean H Bomb -that has no radioactive output.. I guess Bush putting Russia in charge was the best idea as Americans cannot even developed past the 60K Power Transmission lines so Americans are now buying that technology from India .. I guess Obama ten years ago stopped education here in America .. You want to blame a president who took office at a time when we entered the only Depression since the 30's. Sure he hasn't even been able to stop the rise in unemployment but did he not slow it's coming to a peak and did he not possibly avoid restarting the WPA which I think he should have started.

Is not Obama talking MLK, “I have a Dream" and JFK " Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country"?

Americans just want to blame him for not doing what he tried to do but didn't support him when things got bad so it will get worse.

So take your lazy Americans and become a third world or restore the values my Grandparents brought to this country and my parents raised me with and I raised my children with. Be responsible. Respectful and have PIG, Pride, Integrity and Guts in what ever you do.

As if you don't then I will never be a Proud American Again for United we Stand - Divided we fall.

I want back Pride in America but my family comes first and if Americans stay on the course to a Socialist State then to become a third world country it will be time for us to leave for a better home.

Sincerely;

Mr. Thomas E. Heering

International Pride, Integrity and Guts
