In February of 2008, I stood with the 80 percent of Democrats
at our local caucus who supported
Barack Obama for the nomination. In November of 2008, I
joined half a million Kansans and more than 66 million
Americans who voted President Obama into office.
Today I applaud the work he has done in his first year as our
nation's leader. Of course, I don't agree with every decision
he has made or every direction in which he has chosen to
devote his attention. But he is one heck of a cool operator,
and some important differences are becoming evident in
the way our country faces challenges at home and abroad.
Do we have any doubt who is the commander in chief of the
United States? Our military leaders are expressing their
views and providing their data, but the President is in
charge of determining when, where, and how to utilize
our armed forces intelligently. Has our image changed
among the other nations of the world? America won the
Nobel Peace Prize this year.
Are our economic priorities changing? Congress,
in concert with the administration,
is moving swiftly to save our economy by enacting
responsible health care reform as well as laws to
stimulate green initiatives and support a new era of
growth with a solid infrastructure of faster, safer
transportation and more responsible banking
mechanisms.
Is it hard to make these changes?
Just listen to all the media noise and extreme
rhetoric in favor of the status quo. Read the accounts
of how complex a duty it is in 2009 to protect President
Obama against death threats from homegrown
American terrorists. And, in the midst of all these
criticisms and challenges, observe the calm grace
of the first politician in many years who truly
respects his political opponents.
I am glad that I voted for the first U.S. president
who understands the need to reinterpret and refresh our
democracy in the new context of the 21st century.

RiverCityConservative, you really should change your name. Quite the misnomer.
I had no good feelings toward him on election day, but thought that he just made empty campaign promises so I started to feel better. Then the stimulus bill passed, and now a huge, pork-filled healthcare bill is up for a vote and Cap and Trade is only very close to passing. I feel even worse about him and the future of this country….to the point where I question whether I should have children. And the one promise I hoped he would keep, transparency, his administration is much, much worse than that of W's.

I have four children and am relieved that intelligence and grace are finally back in the White House. This is the leadership we need for a new century and all the challenges we face, many of these direct results of the eight years of bumbling and bravado of the guy who slipped into office on a Supreme Court vote and stayed in with ballot tricks. Love the comments about Lawrence being conservative. Good luck with that campaign. Look at how the Republican party self destructed in NY's 23rd district. That is going to be replicated nationwide in the midterms. Yes, I am conservative, but the wildeyed zealots on the right are not.

Yes, I would hold my nose and vote for McCain again. I didn't vote for McCain, but against Obama. Ksfbcoach is correct. My boys (and I) have an abundance of wood to cut, so we run an ad and have delivered dozens and dozens of loads of firewood to Lawrence the past couple years. There are many nice neighborhoods, homes, familes and people that even though they may be liberal, they're not the type seen on this forum. Many are conservative–you just know from little cues and signs when you talk to them and see the surroundings. I hardly would think any of the far-left that troll this forum probably would not even know how to start a fire–so I haven't really encountered their kind up close and personal like that yet. You can spot many, many though strolling down Mass St.–-especially on a day like today.

Where is Obama's inexperience? Not really with issues, but handling politics. He's not experience handling politics, though he's better with facts, and reading situation under no-attack situations. He understands the agenda and what are needed for this country urgently, but he doesn't understand the attacks coming from everywhere. He's learning… and he's learning fast. But not fast enough. Give him 1-2 more years, I'm sure he can handle the GOP and Democrats really well…. by then, he'll become the same usual politicians….

America got the Nobel Prize? You get a prize for apologizing and talking to people who in the past/present and most likely in the future who lie, cheat and steal from their own people without conditions. When has it ever been okay to side against the Jewish people and Israel when they are in a fight for survival surrounded by multiple countries who have throughout history wanted to make them a parking lot. Why is it okay to purchase homes you can not afford, buy a new ipod/dvd system/new gaming system/big screen TV all on credit every time they come out with a new model and create a huge personal debt you have to file bankruptcy. Why is it okay for a bank to buy up a bunch of debt that will compound until it creates a crisis on the chance they will still turn a profit when they sell it to some other sap.
We are just as much to blame for some of these problems as the president but the whole party system is in shambles anyway because you have people claiming to be Repub or Dem because they have it written on a card but they vote like the opposite. I was pleased to see more independents running in this cycle because they were able to speak their mind without being restricted by their parties.
Nothing about health care will change until you get the tort reform and that won't happen because too many lawyers on both side of a case are getting paid.

He hasn't even been in office for a year, republicans are still holding up his nominations, his policies have hardly had time to take effect.

I think the cues & signs are supposed to work like similar to what the original Christians did with the fish sign.
The difference between them, though, is that the original Christians were actually persecuted and the rightwingers who incorrectly claim to be conservative imagine that they are the ones who are persecuted.

Five cues you are in a conservative's driveway:
1.) 1996 or older Ford Explorer in driveway with deep scratches in bumper and oil dripping onto the driveway
2.) Tons and tons of children's toys in bad disrepair strewn about the yard, both neighbors' yards, and the gutter out front
3.) A security company sign in the flower bed by the front door, albeit one from a company that went out of business several years ago
4.) A “Don't Mess with Texas” koozie setting on the front porch surrounded by at least 13 empty half-crushed beer cans.
5.) The siding is falling off the side of the mobile home.

Obama has had some difficulties but he's doing a much better job than George W. Bush did and I believe, much better than John McCain would have. I think the last ten months have confirmed the decision America made a year ago.
Time has also given us a better perspective on Sarah Palin, the woman John McCain impulsively chose to be Commander-in-Chief should (God forbid) anything have happened to him. That perspective has also confirmed the choice of Obama / Biden over McCain / Palin as well.

Did not vote for BO and never would. He has proved what I have always thought about him; an empty suit. He is so far in over his head he doesn't have a clue. The one thing he is good at is the parties at the White House on Wednesday nights. When is he going to make a troop decision? If he doesn't want to send more in then just pull out! Make a decision. My bet is that he will live up to his name: surrender-in-chief.

Can't we have a fair and balanced debate? This is our country and we have to work together, not waste all of our time pretending that we follow the news based solely on the fact that we post on a highly insignificant poll. Educated discussion is not synonymous with ljworld opinion poll

Last I checked, Ron Paul was suggesting that everyone be given the ability to print money so that the American dollar could prove itself in the marketplace.
He's insane.

BlessedSap,
Think about it for a second. I'm serious.
How many countries in the world have multiple currencies?

You should read Ron Paul's opinion on the subject.

“you and your ilk”, and other name calling isn't going to get anyone anywhere.
Sometimes I wonder why the people we elect are too busy fighting with one another and against one another to get anything done FOR us. I don't fricking care what party is in the white house if they are getting stuff done.

Oh, by the way, an analysis shows, Liberals, that your President has no credibility whatsoever. Everyone who blames Bush because of this Obama Economy is so full of it, I can smell it from here! Blame Bush? Yeah, well who is in the White House now?!?!?!

Do you have a memory? Do you not remember December of 2008? Banks and Insurance companies declaring bankruptcy? The economy has improved drastically since your little boy Bush was in office.
No sir, you are the one that has no creditability.
Go make up crap somewhere else.

Yes, I would gladly vote for McCain/Palin again. And I will be glad to vote for anybody who runs against Obama in 2012.

Funny how the Neocons want to blame the past 10 months on O'Bama, but they won't take credit for what happened in the first nine months of the Bush administration. 9-11 DID happen on Bush's watch.
The current economic disaster also happened on their watch. Funny how they are now “experts” at claiming to be able to fix what they never saw coming in the first place.

this is why I hate politics. People are so obsessed with “if my guy isn't in office, then to heck with” everything. What happened to helping their constituants, by voting for things that make sense, and not voting by party line. I know that isn't popular, but imagine what we could get accomplished. It doesn't matter whose idea it was, if it helps people, then it's needed. Everyone is so obsessed with making Obama (or any president) a failure that they forget about the American public, who become victims of pissing contests.
Obama isn't the enemy, but I sure feel like the forgotten prisoner of war sometimes.

mom_of_three, you're absolutely right. The sad reality, though, is that when people like myself despise the over zealous control our government has on our lives, we are vilified because we don't like those policies. Yeah, well if there are people here who don't like what I said earlier (babboy), too bad. This is a free country. Get over it!!

Yes, I would most definitely vote for Obama again, because I have patients. Some people need to see immediate results and thats just not going to happen.

Neither party had a decent candidate. The parties choose who they want, behind closed doors, and they're all playing us for chumps. They're probably having a good laugh at our great expense.
