no one is quite sure what our young naive community activist turned president foreign policy really is. So far we know he's really good at rolling over on his back and showing his belly.
Will Obama get on his knees to the Russians too?

Well this sort of explains his very weird and super odd behavior. He was totally doped up all these years. His strange outward appearance giving us a glimpse of his tortured soul.

i see very little difference between the two except Obama doesn't need to intimidate the media, they are already solidly in his pocket.

Marijuana works for some and not for others. It should be an individual's decision and not the state's.
Japanese could use it. The ones I know who smoke had a better handle on life and were much more happier than the ones that didn't.
I bet it would cut the suicide rate in half.

don't expect fuse to get it. the liberal mindset requires a victim and a scapegoat.
the victim is not the child, its the mother who lost the child. the scapegoat is the driver of the big mean automobile who cut down the child with no regard for human life.
they can't help themselves.

there's not enough information to blame anything on the driver yet. for all we know, he is not even aware he hit the small child. if he is aware he hit the child, then yes he is truly a despicable human being.
I read this and thought, geez, this could happen to anybody, even the most attentive driver. a right turn in Japan means the car has to go across the intersection. Was it a large intersection or a small intersection? was it a busy intersection or a quiet intersection. were there a bunch of cars making right turns ahead of him/her which could have prevented the driver from seeing such a small child? How far was the mother from the child? Did they get seperated between cars crossing the intersection and the child panic'd possibly darting in front of the car that hit her? Was it raining cutting down visibility? All sorts of factors exist that noone reading the article can possibly fathom. Those that do, are jumping to conclusion.
The only conclusion that can be drawn is the mother total lack of regard for the safety of the child. She should have not stepped off the curb without her child by her side. It was her bad decision that led to the death of her child, it is her that bears ultimate responsibility.
What she did was akin to leaving a loaded weapon within easy reach of a child. No sympathy for mom, if she is haunted by this the rest of her life, she brought it upon herself.

Last time we had a Democratic Super Majority was in 1979 and you saw how that worked out.
Democrats own the government. They are 100% responsible for the direction of the country. The American people are watching and have the opportunity to change their government every two years. Democrats better hope their out of control spending and tax hikes pull the economy out of its tailspin in less than 16 months.

i bet the mother wishes she was holding her child's hand as they were crossing the street. this could have been prevented if the mother had only done what she was supposed to do; that is, making sure the child was not in any kind of danger.
bad mom plus inattentive driver equals dead baby. very sad.

i'm hoping the economy doesn't get any worse but i'm afraid that is wishful thinking as Obama and his central planners decimate the economy.
al franken and his harvard education will save the democrats from themselves i'm sure.

Democrats have total control of the government for now and will be judged by the American people in 2010. Better hope the economy shows some improvement.
