Talk about disdain!
Not as much as PROMISING they would ALL come home during a campaign to help him get those precious votes.......and turn his back on the troops and the generals while he contemplates kickin thousands more over to the sandbox of HELL, sometime AFTER he can celebrate his victory in ramming Health Care "reform" on 3 out of 4 Americans who DON'T even WANT it!!

Besides....what ARE YOU worried about the troops for anyway?
Soon enough....they'll ALL have the Govt. to take care of their battle scars when your Man.....finally, gets his way.

Something for the troops to look forward to.....post VA treatment, AND..... at least he was kind enough to allow the military a raise.
Wasn't that nice, Chili Girl?

But once they were at ease ... why did they not hoot and cheer then? They could have .. but didn't .. why do you suppose that is?

And besides ... refer to my earlier post .. I already covered the fact that they were standing at attention ... katiana merely parroted what I had already said.

It's not necessary to be so snide, and I didn't see that in your post. It's called "How to Lie with youtube". It's a variant of "How to Lie with Statistics". Edit the film to show what you want it to show.

Obama wears a suit and tie ... Dubya, wears a polo shirt ..

Obama doesn't feel the need to salute the flag, whereas, Dubya saluted every chance he got.

Dubya spoke in reasonable tones, whereas Obama "uptalks".

Dubya, through all of his bloops, bleeps, and blunders, came off as being more human.
Obama, on the otherhand, is too regimented ... terrified of saying the wrong thing, or mispronouncing even one word.

Obama needs to relax ... it's okay to be human you know .. and the sooner Obama gets his mind wrapped around that, the sooner folks might warm up to him.
Your fellow Repub Obama bashers do NOT feel it's OK for Obama to be "human".


Bush had so many bleeps and blunders because he didn't have a clue about what he was told to say.

Obama didn't wear a jacket in the Oval Office and slobbering Repubs had a hissy spittin' fit.


Obama KNOWS correct Enlgish and can correctly pronounce words...like nuclear.....Bush couldn't...too uneducated and ignorant.

I have no idea what "uptalks' means...you mean in an educated intelligent manner that may not resonate with really stupid Repub Americans....maybe they should raise up THEIR BAR!

Wow ...

I won't defend either one of them beyond what I see ..

Obama is quite simply, not a people person.
Dubya was.

How hard is this for you to understand?

I'm not a Democrat or a Republican, so it's no sweat off my ass anyway .. I simply call it the way I see it.

Maybe after 8 years of war and multiple deployments they're tired....after all BUSH'S right hand geek , Rumsfeld, LIED and said it would be a "three week cake walk".......it wasn't.

So do I.

That's why there are no votes from me for the status quo (Democrat/Republican)

you dont become president not being a people person. a president is someone the people like, identify with, etc. you have to be a people person to be president. no way around that. when was the last time you saw a pres sitting courtside with the fans drinking a beer during the game? that dont get any more people personish then that.
