If I were the RNC, I would make a commercial listing all the members of Congress who have more experience than Obama…

If there’s ANYONE that really KNOWS nothingness, it would be you CC. After all, you are an internet non-entity (hence the CyberCipher moniker). How would YOU describe Obama?

Obama is pre-”big bang”.

When earthquakes stop from happening, waters recede, temperatures stabilize, mortgages and all debts are forgiven for all, no one falls ill, the ill are cured of all which ails them, the dead are resurrected, the living are all happy, singing kumbaya interminably, we’re all equally poor, slim and beautiful…the voters will notice the substance of this cipher.

Obama, having been deserted by his own father, chose Frank Marshall Davis, a known communist, as his father figure in Hawaii. Then he moved to Chicago where Jeremiah Wright became his substitute father. Obama was educated in the far left political science department of Columbia University and used communist Saul Alinsky’s manual for community organizing. Can anyone name one influence that would have persuaded Obama not to be a socialist, anti-American?

John McCain, 26 years in Congress/Senate, 22 years in the Military.

Barrack Obama 143 days in the Senate, 0 days in the Military.

If Richard Cohen, who’s a liberal, can’t find anything that Obama has done, to even think about running for the highest office in the world, then who can?

November will be epic in its brilliance or naivete. We’ll see if the American electorate is still sane, or has gone ~~fishing~~ shopping, menatally or otherwise.

Obama has done some amazing things. He has withheld his medical records from the voters. He has withheld his college transcripts and thesis from the voters. He has called for an invasion of Pakistan. And so much else that the media won’t give him proper credit for. At least not yet.

[...] Ed Morrissey found another PUMA – Richard Cohen. I’m starting to get the feeling that the Obamination Express just might not make it to Invesco Field; do remember his margin of “victory” is the sole result of superdelegates who can still change their minds, some for the second time. [...]

“Just tell me one thing Barack Obama has done that you admire,” I asked a prominent Democrat. He paused and then said that he admired Obama’s speech to the Democratic convention in 2004. I agreed. It was a hell of a speech, but it was just a speech.

Why would anybody agree with that. What do you mean it was a “great speech?” What was one thing Obama actually SAID that you thought was amazing.

No one can do that. All they’re actually saying is: “Obama has a pretty voice.” And that is his only lifetime achievement.

“…I’d rather have a president who is inadept at public speaking than one adept at public deception.

You won’t have to worry about the inept at public speaking problem, unless and or until… some kind of national emergency is declared before the election in November or before the inauguration in January?

Stranger things have happened… Consider the presidential election in 2000?

Just what has Obama accomplished in his political career? What stand has he taken, what policy has he promulgated into law? Cohen is at a loss to find anything that Obama has done to differentiate himself enough to run for President.

BO is clean? BO is articulate? BO is loved by the news media elites? BO is immune to criticism?

NAH!

Hussein claims to be in control of the oceans, and feeding the sick and giving jobs to the poor “for the first time.” John “My Cheatin’ Heart” Edwards claimed that Christopher Reeve would walk again if John Kerry got elected. These people either think we’re morons or they’re gods: or both. I'd rather have a president who is inadept at public speaking than one adept at public deception.

Obama smiles and talks in very broad generalities. What will happen when he must actually do things, make decisions, as prez? What happens when the rubber meets the road? I imagine one of those early rocket test firings. Up a couple hundred feet and then ignominiously falling back to earth. Or perhaps like an early attempt at flight. A man with large wings strapped to his arms jumps off a bridge, with predictable results. Honestly, does anyone have any idea what will happen if Obama gets elected? His soaring rhetoric has become so boring to me. Obama, lightworker.

“How long before we have gulags and re-education camps?”

I would think that as well, but then think – who in this country would herd people into gulags and re-education camps?

Dedicated lefties might be all for it, but they are gutless and weak. They talk a good game online from mommies basement, but when it comes to doing something?

The people who are strong enough and trained to do this, aren’t leftists and would not participate in it.

The lefties are all chiefs and no indians. They have no worker bees. Because they don’t work.

I was one of those not terribly enamored with McCain for President. I wanted basically anybody with true Conservative credentials. But US Presidents always seem to be right for their times . . . even Carter, whom I hated viscerally, but understood the need to get away from the Nixon years.

The truth is our country has some hard decisions to make in the coming years, mostly regarding entitlements, spending and taxes. We also have a war to complete. The entitlement issues have been kicked down the road for far too long and requires a resolute action. The war is being waged by an unshakeable Commander in Chief and we may be able to actually win because of his steadfast leadership, we need a continuation of that, not disengagement.

The country requires a stubborn old patriot just now who kicks sand in everybody’s faces. It may not be pretty or make us well liked but that attitude will serve us well over the long haul.
