		<description>Everyone talks about how smart this president is. He is as dumb as a post. Bush didn&#039;t pretend to be the smartest guy on the block. However, this guy Obama does pretend, but only fools people dumber than him like most of the people who elected him and the the DemoRat congress.  He is just a hack that parrots things he has learned from his leftist mentors. This man does not have any principles or any original thoughts. 

As a black man in America, I hoped that this guy would moderate and succeed. It seems that he is on the way to being a presidential failure because his welfare-state mentality and his weakness on foreign and military policy. He is someone that this black person will not ever respect unless he changes his leftist ways. (Which ain&#039;t going to happen!)</description>

		<description>Could be worse.

I mean, if we had elected a rock, we wouldn&#039;t even be able to do anything about it. Except impeach the rock for not doing anything.

At least when Obama does nothing, we can complain about it. Could you imagine complaining to a rock? That would just be silly, because the rock can&#039;t talk.

So in conclusion, Obama remains the better choice between electing a person who does nothing and electing a rock that does nothing. 

Makes a hell of a line for the ol&#039; presidential autobiography, eh?</description>

		<description>Legislative agenda?  Social(ist) agenda is more like it. The policies of this administration are steering our country straight into economic doom. And that may be thier goal....have you ever googled &quot;economic collapse&quot;?</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll be surprised if any of these three go anywhere in the next 3 months, so I&#039;m ok with the rounding.</description>

		<description>So Obama managed to screw up the US in less than a year, hate to see what he is going to do the next 3 months.  National Health Care for illegal immigration that are HIV+.  If they can walk across the boarder they are good. Anything for another democrat vote.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if you&#039;re aware, but Obama was sworn in in January of 2009, not November 2008. He&#039;s only been president for 9 months.</description>
