Barack Obama
This is a stunning revelation of Barack Obama’s whereabouts during these trying times in the world. The Russia, Georgia, South Osettia conflict means nothing compared to this.
Obama’s real world view stymies even the most vile critics.
A Must see video!

Barack Obama is as Senator. As a Senator, it’s not his job to conduct foreign policy, it’s the President’s. Whenever Obama does things that look “Presidential” he’s hammered by you fools for being “presumptuous”.
John McCain, meanwhile, is also a Senator, but he’s talking like he’s the “go to” guy in this deal. Where are all the complaints about him being “presumptuous” in acting like he’s President, instead of a presidential candidate.
But we cannot get too excited about that double standard, honestly. It may be the last time John McCain gets to play dress-up and pretend he’s President.
diogenes – back in your barrel!
McCain did a great thing in taking the attitude he did in the Georgia affair. Glibama blew it – even the PBS crew admintted that. As far as appropiateness, what about one whose citizenship is unknown yet runs for US presidency, what about a Columbia grad whose thesis is not available, a Harvard grad who as president of Harvard Law wrote no comments, a community activist with no discernable achievement, a state legislator who generally voted present, a lawyer with no law suits, a professor with no published papers, a senator who’s been only 160 days in in office who drags his pants in Afghanistamn, Iraq, Germany, France and Britain to meet the world leaders he’s gonna do business for the next 8-10 years?
Where he’s now, in such a crisis moment? Let’s check with the wounded soldiers in the Landstuhl hospital, they can tell you a few things about this.
You missed a good opportunity of keeping your mouth shut, diogenes – now back in your barrel!
1. Obama’s a U.S. citizen, despite all the crap that circulates on the Internet. He’s got a valid Hawaiian birth certificate, and the Hawaiian officials have confirmed this fact.
2. His “thesis” was a senior paper — written before Columbia even had formal senior theses — which he cannot find. If you went to college, do you have a copy of your papers? I don’t. And who really cares about a college paper, decades after the fact?
3. Most law students on law reviews don’t write comments, certainly not comments with their names attached. That’s why they’re called “editors”.
4. No, it doesn’t appear he had any momentous victories as a community organizer. That’s not uncommon. Besides, the types of victories he might have achieved wouldn’t meet with your approval anyway!
5. Generally voting “present”? What I found was that he voted “present” about 130 times, out of 4000 votes he cast in the state legislature. That’s less than 5% voting “present”.
6. Many lawyers are not litigators.
7. A professor with no published papers? Maybe that’s why he’s not a professor anymore. (Actually, he was an adjunct lecturer, not a professor. Adjuncts don’t have the same “publish-or-perish” pressure.)
8. A senator in office for only 160 days? Funny thing is, according to McCain, even with only 160 days in the U.S. Senate, Obama is somehow responsible for high gasoline prices. And McCain, although being a congressman for 30 years, somehow is not responsible in the least. By the way, McCain hasn’t even shown up on the floor of the Senate, much less cast a vote, in over four months.
9. Yeah, Obama didn’t visit Landstuhl. He got his signals crossed with (or by) the Pentagon, and he opted out. Not sure if I would have made that choice, but he did. But if you’re trying to extrapolate that one incident into a blanket disregard for our troops, it’s a lie; Obama has visited troops on many occasions.
And did you notice that I responded, point by point, wihtout making snide little personal comments? Occasionally I try to be nice to the regular denizens of an aptly-named Stuck On Stupid.
That opening shot of Obama throwing a lei into the ocean is actually showing him honoring and remembering his dead mother. Your video is incredibly tacky and disrespectful of family. You should be ashamed of yourself.
This would make a better point if it was alongside pictures of the Invasion of Georgia.
Great Pics though!
