“He is wrong about Obama trying to please the "left wing of the Democratic Party"-I never saw anything even close to that when it came to foreign policy. Stating you want to close Gitmo and then saying that you're going to continue to hold "enemy combatants" indefinitely is hardly "closing Gitmo". Disregarding habeas corpus as a policy remains. Remember "Gitmo" used to be a golf course. Any of the domestic federal prisons could be the new "Gitmo".
FYI, trolls, some of these "enemy combatants" were 9-13 years old when they were captured. A lot were turned in for the money”

“Yeah, exactly... and look- Ben Stein called someone a anti-semite again this week. He passes that phrase out like it's one of Reagan's jelly beans. And the funniest thing is he says it with no sense of irony, considering he loved Nixon more than Nixon loved himself. Yet Nixon was a huge antisemite, as his own tapes prove.”

“Yes, he is....Obam a hasn't had a former professsor come out and mention that he was the most intellectually lazy student he'd ever had. What can you expect from an oilman who asked the government to bail him out TWICE, his one successful business was being a minority owner of the Texas Rangers baseball team, a guy who only managed to get in 84 days of flying in a 3 year Air National Guard gig, was guided through his governorship by a Democratic comptroller named Bob Bullock, and managed to recycle Nixon's and Reagan's advisors in his administration but have people like you think he "was one of the people".”

“Obama is just as much a neo-con as Bush. There are already plenty of liberals criticizing Obama for this. There is nary a neo-con that criticized Bush for anything-not a huge $150 billion stimulus plan, not for expanding the size of the federal government to 34% of the GDP, not for expanding the federal debt from $3 trillion to $11 trillion, not for obligating us to two wars that will end up bankrupting the economy, not for compromising our civil rights, nothing...

“And they also control the message and the message here is that the UN and US kill children. Hate to say, but the Taliban is Afghanistan's problem and shouldn't be ours. When Timothy McVeigh bombed the federal building in OKC, our government didn't respond by occupying Oklahoma and directly fighting the rightwing militias that shared his belief system. They arrested him and tried him. Terrorism is not an act of war, it's a violation of law”
BREWSTERSOWN replied on Dec 28, 2009 at 16:12:43
“While I wish I could agree with not getting involved, I cannot agree that we shouldn't help (or lead) in the fight to stop them. Let's not forget that it was the Taliban in Afghanistan that gave birth to 9/11. The local population couldn't stop them then and they would not be able to stop them now. We can debate the means by which we fight against the Taliban, but not to fight is not an option. This is why Obama didn't pull out. Civilian deaths are clearly to be avoided, but we must address the growing power of the Taliban.”

As for his seizure disorder, he needs ablative therapy. Many times in the MSM, I see the concept of ineffective therapy confused with the concept of "the doctors don't know". Heck, just today I had a patient tell me that she had a condition that "the doctors couldn't figure out" but then proceeded to tell me all the test results of the studies previously performed. When I told her what she most likely had earlier, she remembered then that her doctor had said the same thing at the time...”

“I can tell you, as a doctor, I probably pay more in taxes than you make in income. And, as I reminded by conservative husband, whose first company defaulted to the federal pension program, he's going to be a recipient of a federal entitlement program and he needs to appreciate it.
