I reckon Australia's relatively few problems are from the lingering Birtish influence.

Even if that were the case - and anyone with a brain in their head knows it isn't - what they have done to their own people is all a sane person or gov't needs to know in order to judge the Nork nutjobs.

Obama was most eager to call him a friend during the campaign. But now it's different I suspect:
WARREN BUFFETT, CEO, BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY: I think if you get into the way it was written, it's [the Waxman - Markey bogus climate bill] a huge tax and there's no sense calling it anything else. I mean, it is a tax. So it -- and it's a fairly regressive tax.

Obama's calm has been, I must admit, commendable.
The televised images from citizen journalists in Iran of the crackdowns in Teheran and elsewhere and the revelations of Gov Sanford's affair combined to sink the 2 hour infomercial on Obamacare that ABC ("All Barack Channel") did from the White House, after having basically nationalized itself to better serve Dear Leader.
In spite of that I didn't notice Obama's brow to be furrowed in greater, more peevish consternation than usual. And he has been careful with the finger-pointing too,probably because A'jad does it a lot himself. His handlers do deserve credit on these points.

Personally, I'm hoping Sasha Cohen can work his way into the Hollywood weep-a-thon or the funeral or the inheritance squabbles, for the amusement of those of us who think the passing of Jacko should not be the big deal the media is determined to make it into.

Another thread where Obama's foreign-born defenders outnumber his American ones. And as I have said this means he is in trouble on the issue in question.

Not one of Obama's would-be defenders here seems to understand that socialism in America will not and cannot be like socialism elsewhere.
The posts above are replete with historical blindness, Euro-centrism, jingoism and naivete, not to mention ignorance of even the most basic terms being thrown around.
And that is why so many here insist socialism isn't coming to America or is a figment of paranoid conservative imagination.
