Obama's Global Warming Plan: Band-Aids for Wildlife

'Pr. Obama, stand firm. I believe that the majority of the american people will stand with you...”



I'm sorry friend, what planet are you from? The one central miscalcula­tion Pr. Obama has made is that the US people would stand with him, ON ANYTHING. Wanna know what 'standing' looks like?



* Egypt a year ago;

* Civil Rights workers.

* THE TEA PARTY



Are you really blind to this, or do you simply lack the courage to face and write the truth? True 'Standing' is WHETHER OR NOT ANYONE ELSE DOES, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT. Can you imagine Gandhi, King, those at their side appealing to the 'Leader,' President, whatever, in the way you are?



Pr. Obama is doing EVERYTHING possible given that it is clear that the US people, except the insane right-wing­-nuts, WON'T STAND FOR ANYTHING.



YOU get us to stand. Pr. Obama already is. His mark of stupidity is to not finally face how spineless we Lefties are, to throw the upcoming election, we're dead of our own cowardly denial already, and go off and enjoy the next 4 years with his magnificen­t family. He deserves it, and we deserve the implosion of everything worthwhile in the US, in Creation. ... We've earned that.



But our, eternity's children haven't earned that, so STOP POINTING AT OBAMA, AND POINT THE ONLY PLACE SALVATION CAN COME FROM, US, GET US TO STAND, OR at least risk everything in your attempt, as you ask Pr. Obama to do. sl

Obama's America: More Warren Buffett's Secretary Than Warren Buffett

Mr. Roy, 'culture editor,' ok. But if a 'culture editor' is going to write of something like 'leadershi­p' shouldn't they know what they are talking about? James Bond, a Leader? M, a Leader?



This is entertaini­ng friend, but profoundly ignorant on a topic of historic proportion­s. Gandhi was a Leader. FDR was a Leader. MLK Jr. was a Leader. Aung San Suu Kyi is a Leader. Wael Ghonim is a Leader. They, unlike you, would all agree, that Pr. Obama is the greatest Leader the world yet has seen.



Change your focus from 'Leader' to 'Thug,' 'Bully,' or the like, and your article works.
