Smartest President ever ? ... not even close.

Gandhi ... Smandhi.

Exit polls show that the 4,500,000 families foreclosed on since January 2009 ... voted overwhelmingly against Barack Obama's Democratic Party.

With an unresolved foreclosure crisis ... you should expect an even larger voter backlash in 2012 !

Obama became prez at a lousy time.... after bush had left a right royal mess behind for him to clean up..... the american people blame him for the mess!!!!
As an Indian , I am naturally wary of american intentions, but you could not have gotten a better person than Obama to make a difference.
Pity most americans dont see it that way

State visit to improve the image of the US floored by the Republican administrations in the past. Scheduled years ahead.

I enjoyed all the pictures. I can't wait to see what the conservative pundits are going to say about that! Let me guess: "Obama is overseas site-seeing instead of advancing American interests!!!"

I hope they picked up the nonviolence message and will push the end of the wars more strongly now.

Those pictures are from the front of the Taj Mahal. Most of the classic pictures of the tomb we all see are back views.

False. Very false. That is Humayun's Tomb. I've been to both places and can tell you with 100% guarantee that none of the pictures above are from the Taj Mahal.

So very correct.

I realized my error, after I had to leave my computer. I was about to make the correction when I returned, but you beat me too it.

Seems I missed his comments on the Fort Hood Massacre anniversary BUT did see where Obama remembered the "terrorist" Mumbai attacks. I guess He has his priorities.
