The real problem is Democrats vs Republicans. Nothing gets done because these two gangs are engaging in a war on each other. They seem to care less and less about OUR NATION, and instead focus on attacking each other. I don't expect them to agree on everything, but this is getting ridiculous. I want what is best for OUR NATION. Seems that most, probably all, of these poli-tricksters we've elected only care about their own personal and party agendas, not what is going to really benefit the US. These people use whatever they can to gain office, then do whatever the can to stay there. I think it has alot to do with the elite status they assume as politicians. Regardless of which color they claim, red or blue, they seem to not care about the opinions and wishes of their boss, the people. They seem to not live in the same America as the rest of us. Most of us should be ashamed for allowing these people, who do not perform the job we hired them to do, to keep their job. We're broke. Red + Blue needs to = Green, or they both need to be expelled. All they do is pit Americans vs Americans and it sickens me. It is our duty as Americans to monitor and evaluate, regardless which gang you want to claim, all of the officials we have elected. Point is, they do not fear the people as they should, and they're using us as pawns. America needs to flush the toilet that is Washington. The problem is not Obama or Bush.

He will also go down as one of the world's greatest terrorist. He sure did terrorize the world during his terms and did a fine job that is all being blamed on Obama. Guaranteed if McCain would have gotten in office and had to deal with this leftover mess, he wouldn't have gotten half the gripes that Obama gets, and McCain would've put our country in the same awful direction that Bush was taking us. Remember, some things take years to feel the effects. We, as Americans, just want everything here and now. Just wait, if Congress will allow him to do his job, then those effects will be felt by his 2nd term. (or if a Republican is chosen at that time, he will get rewarded with praise from what Obama accomplished. That is what happened to Bush after Clinton's terms were finished.) No matter what, or who's in office, I just want good things to happen for the USA and maybe a critic at times, but maybe one that can also help in making change. I won't ever just "BITCH" about it. Do something positive now for our country and stop spreading this negative energy about our current leader. Never during Bush' 8 years did I write something to just BITCH about him. I am a DO-er and I will do what I can for our country to thrive! Not just BITCH about it.

I am glad your parents made it through that blockade when they immigrated to this continent. Another thing, the Mexicans are probably just trying out that spiffy little trend americans pulled on them during the Vietnam era, when they had to deport Americans hiding out in their country in droves!

We should be worried about future QUALITY of care. I question who is going to go into the field of medicine in the future. All of the doctors that I asked said that we will be paying MORE money for the health care plan changes. There needs to be an alternate plan of action.

If a bomb was threating the white house or another hi-jacked airplane was about to take out a city block killing hundreds, maybe thousands of inocent americans in 2 hours from now, would you really let a bunch of legal rights stop you from getting that information to stop it. Red tape slows things down, and the people who attack your soil know this. Why should you care about the rights of a crimnals when they dont care about yours? Are you really going to let legal or human rights stop you from saving children from being killed by terrorism? I wouldnt!

- He inherited the enormous deficit, and you have to “spend money to earn money” as the saying goes.

- The US has closer negotiations with Pakistan now than ever before, and has put a lot of pressure on them for weeding out the Taliban.

- Medicare..? And “socialism” is just a slur word that most americans don’t know what it means. Universal healthcare is not “socialism” – or do you call every other country in the developed world socialist?

- His defense plan in eastern europe is to deploy smaller high tech missile defenses that actually do what they are supposed to, instead of massive military outposts which is what the russians objected to.

- Torturing human beings is never right. If anything, it seeds even more hatred and resentment ending in a bigger threat to national security. Terrorism is emotional, not rational.
