I hate war. But I Love Barack Obama.
That is my belief. You may have your own.

Of course he doesn't want war. Of course he doesn't want poverty. Of course he doesn't want hunger.


What he doesn't have is a magic wand.

Thank You President Obama for taking the time to think things through. For communicating WHY you made your decision.

Thank you for the truth you tell.

You are a good man.

1. and herein lies the problem
progressives/liberals are too in love with their image of Obama to care about his actual policy decisions.

11. We may well mean two different things by the words
"progressives/liberals." So I suspect.

14. +1000 actually
I've been told multiple times to go fuck myself today because I don't walk in step with Obama on this issue.

Last I checked I was a Liberal first before a follower of any one person.

12. Great. All the military industrial complex and corporate oil has to do is hire a likeable spokesman

Lovely.

I don't understand this logic.

I don't understand the supporters of the President on this anymore then I understand the mindset of those who supported Bush.

And, tonight, it is hard to tell the difference between the two.

16. Amen! He's doing exactly what any other President who wants to end the war would
do in his position.

All the haters here will come around. They only see end results and they'll be supporting him louder than ever in 3 years. No doubt in my mind.
