Um, SSN?

You've got to be kidding me, right? There's a reason Afghanistan is called "The Graveyard of Empires". Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, and countless others all had to make deals with the tribes in Afghanistan or risk annihalation. Genghis Khan for craps sake!! What is that line, something like "those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it"? You don't even have to go back very far in history, Russia waas just driven out not too long ago. The two parties need to quit arguing like two brats in the back seat of a car. The government counts on us to be ill-informed. In Ceasar's time he said to just give the people cake and circuses and he could do whatever he wanted. Our cake and circuses are Chili's and American Idol and our government is doing whatever they want. Read your news from a variety of sources, even those you might not agree with, and then form your own opinion. Just because Rush or Hannity or Obama say it's right doesn't mean it's right. Read everything you can, watch political videos on YouTube, and let's vote in some real change. riponpolitics dot com

Remember the TV show "Leave it to Beaver"? Well Barack Obama reminds me of a black Eddie Haskell. Smug and very condescending. When will people realize that there are no fundamental differences between the two parties anymore? Quit arguing like two spoiled brats in the back seat of a car. The government counts on us to be ill-informed. In Ceasar's time he said to just give the people cake and circuses and he could do whatever he wanted. I think our cake and circuses are Chili's and American Idol and our government is doing whatever they want. Wake up folks and get educated.

As the parent of a disabled son, I'm just flat out offended by his remark. If a person made the comment "my hair was so nappy I looked like a black man" I'm sure people would be offended. Don't turn this into partisan politics, it's like two little kids in the back seat of a car. Realize that currently there is no difference between the two parties. Troops out of Iraq? Yep, and right into Afghanistan. Read people, and more than one news source. People staying ignorant is what the politicians count on. Back to my original thought, this comment was just wrong, I expect more from any sitting president. riponpolitics dot com

People that are making this into a partisan argument are being ridiculous. As the parent of a disabled son, I'm just flat out offended by his remark. If a person made the comment "my hair was so nappy I looked like a black man" I'm sure people would be offended. Get off the partisan politics, it's like two little kids in the back seat of a car. Realize that currently there is no difference between the two parties. Troops out of Iraq? Yep, and right into Afghanistan. Read people, and more than one news source. People staying ignorant is what the politicians count on. Back to my original thought, this comment was just wrong, I expect more from any sitting president. riponpolitics dot com
