Re: Thoughts on Obama

Cyberlla your attacks are ludicrous and, I might add, not working with the American people.

1. In terms of military technology the U.S. overspends the rest of the world by huge amounts. And to what end. No level of advanced weapons systems would have changed the policy in Iraq. The Bush Administration had the most technologically advanced invasion in world history and then they proceeded to bungle the occupation and reconstruction of Iraq. So when Barack says hes going to decrease spending on advanced weapons, he's right. Its a waste of money and only makes defense contractors wealthy.

2. Barack did not say he would get rid of all the U.S. nuclear weapons. He said that he would not develop new nuclear weapons. And thank goodness! Cause the U.S. has a TON of nukes right now, we don't need mroe nukes. How can a nation need more than a dozen nuclear weapons. If you are using more than a dozen nuclear weapons then the world is pretty much over isn't it? So what exactly are we doing with all those nukes? How does it help us? How does it make the world safer?

So yeah, as always with Obama opponents. The only way to make an argument against him is to lie. You can't deal with his actual positions or reality because he makes too much logical sense.
