IMHO - Christian churches are pushing for political influence just like lobbyists although I believe there is supposed to be seperation of church and state in US Govt.

“i don't get it.
During his first term, dubya made a shambles of the American economy and got us snarled in an illegal war and mis-manged the Afghan war, turned our country into a banana republic and rewarded only the rich and strangled the middle class and made life for the poor all hell.

And then for reasons I'll never understand, he was voted into a 2nd term where he really messed things up. It was so bad that EVERYBODY knew the replacement Prez was in for a rough ride.

So slong comes Obama and so many comments on here stating his incompetence although from what I've observed, he's been working to get the economy back on track and taking a thoughtful stance on the wars.

I don't understand... He's not even been in office for a year yet.”

“My professors in college often said that it was more the American public that stimulated the economy and created jobs. Govt could provide some incentives but it was mostly Americans themselves that got the ball rolling again in past recessions.

But in the past 20 years I've seen job growth created largely out of hype s/a the dot.com boom/bust and the more recent housing boom.

Its tough now. I know its gonna get tougher. But if Obama can provide education stimulus for so many of our kids and provide a more stable world to operate within, perhaps we can succeed again. Americans are amazing when they get their act going.”

“The greatest contradiction is why they had her picked for VP if she was incompetent??”

Ellyllon replied on Nov 14, 2009 at 12:18:34

“All they thought was, "Ok, Obama picked a white guy. We pick a woman - who is out there, anyway? Oh, Limbaugh likes Palin & she's pretty. Done!" Had we picked Hillary, McCain would have a black running mate - male. I have not a sliver of doubt.

She was picked because she's attractive & they believed she was pliable. Hence, they considered her 'rogue' when she didn't follow direction. That, in itself, proves a remarkable lack of respect for women - and a shocking lack of knowledge of the nature of individuals.”

Badgirl replied on Nov 14, 2009 at 12:01:06

“Am thinking that she was such a long shot, an unlikely choice and last on the list that no one wasted the time to vet her. Bet they spent the time vetting the more qualified / more likely choices and than SURPRISE McCain chose Palin. That $50 grand was wasted. Even Palin's mad about it! It was probably spent on car fare and lunches...”
