Our President certainly is very well spoken....

[busterbrown]

And has a very good grasp of whats going on in the Middle East.

But he just plain lousy at pin pointing the blame of why this is all happening..

The Invasion of Iraq by George W Bush fueled by lies and treachery of his neocon friends...But

He voted against the war... So it can’t be that..

Someone tell me why the hell he isn’t on the Talk Shows Today reiterating all which I have mentioned, so that our electorate understands exactly why all the chaos is occurring

We have an vital election coming up and some well thought out attacks on the Republicans and their neocon allies might provide for a little more impetus to get some voters out..

People are frightened of the Middle East Terror events (mostly unnecessarily) so I think this is an excellent way to get some momentum going..

Come on President Obama!!!

1. That is not the Presidents job. Wish someone who worked in the Bush admin. was brave enough.

Brave enough to speak out against todays republicans. Call out all the 'still entrenched in our Gov. bush era people.

We can't expect the sitting President to go on all the talk shows

Do wish someone with knowledge, in the private sector would speak up!!, C. Powell?. Probably even the retired General is still to afraid of todays republicans, to ever 'do the right thing'.

2. It is the President’s job..

To defend his record...And even more so because of the fact that we might be facing a Congress completely dominated by extremists republicans in a couple of months..

Franklin Roosevelt was an excellent example of how it is done..

4. I don't want the President to defend anything or start a blame game over current issues.

He doesn't have to play defensive over his record. It his record and nothing he says will change any voters mind.

Ds have to turn out and vote, & there will not be any republicans elected.

3. Presidents usually appoint

cabinet members to make the rounds and explain things like that. He has done this occasionally but not as much as I wish he would.
I don't think he should do it himself though.

5. The President did not vote against the war.

He was not even a United States Senator at the time.

6. You are very quick to shout...

Probably best to some fact checking first..

7. I looked at what you provided

My statement is accurate. Carry on!

[busterbrown]

8. You stated he did not vote against the war.. He did..

I didn’t specify where.. Which was a big deal when he ran for Pres.. So...perhaps you should just admit what you don’t want to..

[yeoman6987]

9. I didn't specifically say where.....lol
