I just watched it....I guess it's really gotten that bad. It was an average level speech that touched on all the normal political avenues that get people to applaud and react to.
Changes inside the US but really no change outside is what I'm seeing. So +1 + (-1) = change... I suppose.
"Terrorism" will still be sought out and eradicated as official policy under Obama. Does anyone actually think he won't allocate ongoing military force to combat resistance to US foreign policy?Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

People are so afraid of change and the unknown...well...in my book we can't afford not to elect Barack Obama as President of the United States of America.
Well done Barack! I'm so proud of you...being a Democrate and being an American!
Two questions.
#1. What change will there be? Don't tell me a new President because that will happen regardless.
#2. What is a Democrate?0 -

Without getting super specific...I think his plan on ending the war in Iraq responsibly resonates with me. His plan on alternate energy and ending our dependency on foreign oil is good change...as well as his plans on recruiting a new generation of teachers and making education a priority as well as making college affordable for everybody...rich...middle class or poor.
I also enjoy his idea of a universal healthcare system...as well as his willingness to stop shipping out jobs overseas...and putting people back to work again who are more than willing and able.
All this...and lots more represent change to me."Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse...of my innocense, got back my inner sence, baby got it...still got it"0 -

Question... Do you think all that is possible without dramatically changing foreign policy?
What is to become of the MIC?, and where is all this magic money coming from to do all this change?
It basically going to be a kiss the global military empirical forces goodbye...
I'm not getting that from him. He sounds just like Bush and McCain when it comes to that.
So I guess he has some magic machine that creates actual wealth instead of just paper...Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,

I thought Obama did an amazing job...I liked how he attempted to reach everyone...he talked of cutting taxes and failing gov't programs...yet, those on the right will A) ignore this or b) pretend they never heard it or c) be just plain ignorant to this because they didn't watch or read the transcript...
I liked how he went after the "market will fix it" and "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" beliefs...
Sure, his goals are lofty...for me that's not a bad thing...and sure, he's talking tough on "terror"...I don't see that as a bad thing, since he focuses so much on diplomacy...
all in all, I great speech with substance and vision...not more of the same...0 -

That is funny.....
republicans spend money they don't have and want the federal governament to reduce our freedoms, legislate morality and what we do with our own bodies.
But like it has always been, republicans spend spend spend spend running up HUGE debt, growing gov and let the Dems figure out how to fix it.
Then say we will make gov small and reduce spending, which never happens.
Yet the ignorant American voters drink up on the kool aid.0 -

Don't Know Myself wrote:"Sen. McCain likes to talk about judgment, but really, what does it say about your judgment when you think George Bush was right more than 90 percent of the time?"
McCain's presidential support score has been as low as 77% as recently as 2005. Which is a significant departure from party lines. You would expect a Republican to vote with the Republicans nearly 100% of the time. Obama votes with the Democrats nearly 100% of the time. Not surprising considering how far left he is. What is the real lesson here? Obama tows the party line much more than McCain does. This should be obvious though, that is why conservatives don't like McCain.09/02/00 09/05/00

Or take the Clinton approach. Let Americans die, while not spending money, then let the Republicans fix it.
As for freedoms, you are way off base! Dems want to take away are freedom of speech with the fairness doctrine. They want to take our guns. They want to take the lives of unborne babies.
What crap do they try to sell you? That the patriot act is taking away your rights? It has made us safer... not like you should have anything to hide anyway! That a woman who has already made a CHOICE to engage in an activity (sex) that results in pregancy, needs a second choice to murder that baby?09/02/00 09/05/00
