As far as I remember the only requirement for a healing was faith the size of a mustard seed. Pretty cheap insurance package with all the benifits.

Its easy to bash obama, he hasnt made the 'change' he promised, remember his campaign trail was like the whole world was about to see some kind of new episode. He hasnt actually done anything yet, his main feats, like bugging out of iraq by 2012 were sealed by Bush a year before. The guy is ignoring generals advice, more troops are needed for Afghanistan, the biggest effect in the iraq conflict was made by the Surge, its obvious we need an afghan surge, but he isnt listening to guys in the know.

He normally loves them if they work in his favor. Otherwise, no.

An unbiased website would've been nice instead of "liberalslikechrist.org". I still don't see how Reagan being bad (in your opinion) makes Obama a good president.

I just wish I could get my hands on a copy of that "spitting image special feature for Ronald Reagan's 80th birthday".

*shrugs* Pretty much all presidents have trials and tribulations and anyone who thinks a particular President didn't get his hands dirty wears blinders.

Obama problem isn't what he's done per se; I don't see how any first term president looking for a second term would have done much different. The problem is the unrealistic expectations the adoring public placed in him. Historical perspective would tell you nothing in government happens fast--at least nothing good. I can understand why people were excited about him and all, but frankly, impressing a bunch of people who already think the way you do is pretty easy.

The reality is to get something done in government you're dealing with people who don't think like you, and who have their own ideas. Anyone who actually thought Obama was going to go to the White House, wave his magic want and make "it all go away" also believes in fairies and elves.

Do I approve of the "Fox News" spin of reactionary buzzwords and partial truth (if not downright falsehood)? No. All it does is make me long for the days when the Republican party wasn't simply pandering to the far right and wanted to get things down. It's a sad state of affairs when all you've got is "death panels" and "indoctrinate" and "nazism." *shakes heads*

Really? From what I've heard, he was a pretty good president overall. Like all presidents, he made some bad decisions but what president hasn't? Obama has made a very large number of bad decisions already and he hasn't even been in office for a year yet.
