McCain was a strong Republican candidate until he was forced to take Palin as his vice presidential candidate. Obama is one of the strongest presidential candidates of all-time. He's the first African-American President in the history of the United States.

His greatest attribute is that he's black, and he's a snake oil salesman. Told more lies in his campaign then Bush and Cheney did leading up to Iraq.

He has tried to fight for the middle class as well as improving our alternative energy system, but the Republicans in Congress have made it impossible for him to get anything passed. He has the most filibusters of any President in history, and he hasn't even been in office for three full years yet.

That's just off the top of my head.

We're withdrawing from Iraq.

By Phil Stewart
WASHINGTON | Sat Sep 10, 2011 7:13am EDT
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - When it comes to the tricky political calculus of deciding how many U.S. troops to keep in Iraq, President Barack Obama may truly have no good options.
Obama was an Iraq war opponent who repeatedly promised no U.S. troops will remain in the country beyond 2011, the deadline for the U.S. withdrawal under a bilateral pact.
But his past two defense secretaries have publicly advocated keeping some U.S. forces there on a training mission, should Iraq ask for it. To that end, Iraq and the United States agreed to start formal negotiations last month.
Sources tell Reuters the Obama administration is now considering options including a training force as small as 3,000 troops in the country. Obama's Democratic base may still feel that is too many and Republican critics say that number is too few to guard against a dangerous escalation in violence.
Any deterioration in Iraq could come back to haunt Obama during the 2012 U.S. presidential election year. It would remind Democrats that American forces are still in danger there while bolstering a Republican narrative of policy blunder.
In his State of the Union address, Obama vowed to "finish the job of bringing our troops out of Iraq." Civilians, he said, would forge a lasting partnership with the Iraqi people, a nod to an expanded role planned for the State Department.
To counter the impression of backpedaling, the Obama administration appears to be flirting with the idea of rebranding current military operations in Iraq as "combat" and future ones as "training."
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said last month, at event where she was flanked by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, "our combat mission in Iraq ends at the end of this year."
"Our support and training mission, if there is to be such a one, is what the subject of this discussion (with the Iraqis) would be," she said at the National Defense University.
There is a problem though: Obama has already announced the end of the U.S. combat mission in Iraq. The remaining 43,000 or so forces in the country are already in an 'advise and assist' role, even though the U.S. military still sometimes conducts air strikes.
SPLIT WITH THE MILITARY?
Declaring that the "tide of war is receding," Obama announced in June a faster withdrawal from Afghanistan than his military had recommended. That may now happen in Iraq, although there are competing visions within the military itself about just how big a force may be needed.
Eight years after the United States ousted Saddam Hussein, Iraq is still building its police and army to battle a lethal Sunni Islamist insurgency and Shi'ite militias within, as well as defending against external threats.
Anti-U.S. Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, a key member of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's coalition government who openly opposes any continued U.S. presence, has threatened to escalate protests and military resistance if any American troops stay.
So, the U.S. military has emphasized that "force protection" for American troops will be key to any future mission in Iraq.
The Pentagon declined to comment on internal deliberations, but sources familiar with the matter said U.S. officers have felt at least 10,000 troops would be necessary to help Baghdad address all the shortcomings in its security forces.
Even so, Army Chief of Staff General Raymond Odierno, until last year the top U.S. commander in Iraq, has not expressed alarm at the possibility of keeping on just 3,000 troops.
He told reporters at the Pentagon on Thursday: "I always felt that we had to be careful about leaving too many people in Iraq. I'm not saying 3,000 to 5,000 is the right number. But what I would say is there comes a time when ... it becomes counter-productive" to have too many forces.
Too many troops risk being seen as an occupying force, he said.
KURDS VS ARABS
One example of a mission that could fall by the wayside is U.S. operations to keep the peace between Arabs and Kurds.
The president of Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdish region warned this week that the withdrawal of U.S. forces will increase the possibility of a civil war.
"If you're doing 3,000, you could do a scaled-back version of the Northern Iraq mission and that's all you'd be doing," said a U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Odierno, who had long been the face of the Iraq mission before General Lloyd Austin took over this year, said that wasn't necessarily the case.
"I've heard some discuss where we need 5,000 people to work the Arab-Kurd issue. Well, I've read some things lately that we think that they are starting to handle that," he said.
"So if that's the case, then we don't need those 5,000," he added, without directly taking a position on the issue.
Look, even the military is split on what would be the best way to withdraw from Iraq. The bottom line is that we're withdrawing. If we leave all of a sudden and allow the Arab-Kurd issue to devolve into an all-out civil war, the United States looks even worse. Also, if we hadn't increased troop levels in Afghanistan for a while, we never would have assassinated bin Laden. And yes, I realize that the assassination of bin Laden doesn't mean much to some people, but for the families of those 9/11 victims, it meant a lot. It was a win for the United States as a whole.

He hasn't proposed legislation, delegated all to dem controlled congress. Earmarks are the name of the game in his stimulus package, all earmarked for crony capitalism and unions. He had supermajority in senate, then large majority, and majority in the house for 2 years. Nothing, its the repubs fault, teaparty is racist. Spend spend spend. The republicans take half of the legislative branch, its the repubs fault the economy is an abortoin. All he does is campaign, pander and demagogue. His job, and campaign promise, was to bring everyone together. Within minutes of taking office it was lectures and snide remarks across the aisle. "We don't need you, we won, no one likes your ideas, car in a ditch, go it alone, nuclear option". A political fool, a horrible leader, a liar, a complete and utter failure.
You're are a joke. An embarrassment to real liberals. The ones who, although psychotic, actually have some semblance of principal, however misguided. You support this pandering, meandering, cluemaster blindly, just like the nazis supported hitler. :sdeek: No questions asked, its for the good of the "middle class" (i.e., "working class"), look at me, look at you.
Disgusting

Not to mention Barry framed the second amendment down in Mexico, which has led to the deaths of several people in the US and god knows how many in Mexico.
Way to go, Barry :frown:

Obama clearly said "if the troops are not out by the time I am elected president. It will be the first thing I DO!!"
Ya.....

Yeah, he's my guy, too. But, with all republicans being racists, does he really have a chance? And if he's elected, do the democrats become the racists for disagreeing with him? confusing.

My Wall Street Journal says Herman Cain is now leading the field.
Yay! Herman

Only the very wealthiest of Americans will pay less taxes under 9-9-9. I don't like the idea of a federal sales tax and a federal income tax. We should have one or the other, not both. I also hate the idea of giving deductions for charitable donations, but nothing else.
-
Oh, you're going to college? Sorry, no deductions for books and tuition. No deductions for student loan interest, either. Helping people who help themselves is God's job, not the government's.
No deductions on interest paid on home loans. That free ride is over. (I kind of support this one, fwiw)
Oh, you had a kid? Tough crap, no deductions.
Pay your tithes on Sunday? Well, write that crap off, why are you even asking? The church needs the money.

Agreed. I would put that in the "wasteful spending" category. The recent revelations that we are sticking our nose in an African civil war or two is a good example. There is absolutely nothing to gain.
There are instances, however, in which it is prudent to kick the crap out of somebody before they become a problem here on our soil. We also have American interests overseas to protect.

The government has socially engineered the cost of tuition and homes through roof. You just fail to realize it because your worried about getting a $400 tax return

The CIA fights wars now, not the Military. It circumvents the whole "congressional oversight" part. Thanks B.O.!

Cain does deserve credit for being the only candidate who is serious about the budget. I just think it's somewhat laughable that he is trying to say his tax plan is a tax cut, when in reality, 84% of Americans will pay more.

Cain does deserve credit for being the only candidate who is serious about the budget. I just think it's somewhat laughable that he is trying to say his tax plan is a tax cut, when in reality, 84% of Americans will pay more.
Paul proposed cutting 1 trillion in spending :dunno:
Yes, but he also proposed zero taxes of any kind. I'm just not sure how he plans on funding the rest of the federal budget without any tax revenue.
You don't need additional taxes if you cut 1 trillion
He didn't say he wants no additional taxes. He said he wants no taxes at all. Nobody would pay anything.

I haven't even looked into that much, although I see there's still a 15% corporate tax.

I don't have a link. He said it at last night's debate. I'll see if I can find one later.

Yea went out and found it, he was rebutting Herman Cain's budget plan and said it was regressive. He says what you said he did, that much is very clear.

Paul wants to abolish the income tax, always has. He doesn't want to abolish all taxes. He is/was a conservative libertarian, in that he believes taxes deprive people of their personal property and are unjust to the extent used to foster anything more than the minimum level of government (e.g. a police and military to protect the citizens from having their personal property unjustly taken).

you know the "tax policy center" is left-leaning don't you?
However, I'm with the libs on this one. No one that currently isn't paying any income taxes, should have to pay income taxes. Their fair share is somewhere between zero and negative infinity.
