| How long before all of us conservatives can say....
....we told you so.
I'd say we are pretty close to the appointed hour.  |

| Well, you can say it now, but no one will really listen. It'll be awhile, to be honest. | |

Before the elections we said:
Obama is unqualified to be POTUS - check
Obama's economic policies would be a nightmare - check
Obama would soften our defenses - check
Obama's health care plan would be disaster waiting to happen - check
Obama is an idiot - check
Anything I'm missing? | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | Obama has done the absolute impossible.
He's made Bush look like a tight fisted economic genius, and Carter look like a master of foreign policy. | |

I think stepping back and thinking about the Iran elections was better than jumping in with both feet to shout a position, he made the right choice with authorizing lethal force in the pirate situation, and at the very least America is putting on a better face which I think will pay dividends with our allies that may have felt otherwise alienated. I'm sure you have beef with how he has gone about doing it...go ahead and spout "apology tour" nonsense. But he has made headway and hasn't screwed anything up. That is a big improvement over the last guy to sit in the oval office.
There are valid concerns with the other points you note. | |
