Just see his last quote to the U.N., "Those who used to chastise America for acting alone in the world cannot now stand by and wait for America to solve the world's problems alone" So we used to 'solve the world's problems'... now we're doing what? Accepting other countries (in the U.N.) help to shove the US view down everyone's throat? Way to go, Mr. Diplomacy... It would've been so much nicer to hear "We're getting out of the business of bullying the world, we realize everyone has their own way of doing things. We will be pulling out troops, removing tarriffs, and allowing free trade to happen throughout the world." Oh wait, that'd be too much like democracy at a global level.. can't let that happen! Is the president stupid… or completely arrogant? Just see his last quote to the U.N., “Those who used to chastise America for acting alone in the world cannot now stand by and wait for America to solve the world’s problems alone”

So we used to ‘solve the world’s problems’…

Sec of Ed Duncan noted that the questions in the student lesson plan were "inarticulately worded" he hwent on to explain what the question should have said. Fair enough, people make mistakes but just imagine the outrage that would have been sounded by media outlets and Dem Pols about how stupid our President is and that he shouldn't be allowed to talk to students because his stupidity could affect students' ability to learn if the president's nam was Bush not Obama.

The voters should have heeded these remarks and considered the complexities of the job as President of the United States. Mr. Obama has demonstrated quite well his inability to understand our country's desire to change health care without surrendering our rights and freedom.

Is the majority of the US stupid? He's saying he's going to save money by spending money on national healthcare. I heard him say it. If I had to Ask Gavino one thing, it'd be that... How does Obama's plan save money in the short or long term? Is it as simple as paying for it out of our taxes rather than paying for insurance coverage? Maybe a special feature on Healthcare here would be nice to read... He makes it as easy as 1,2, 3 on his site: http://www.barackobama.com/issues/healthcare/index.php Just a thought...

Rousseau and Marx were intellectuals but between them they have undermined prosperity and freedom for centuries.
