Merc, it seems like there is always a reason to run up the credit card. With the last administration it was the two-front war, this administration it was continuing the bailout and stimulus started by the previous administration to save the economy and the war. You are putting much too much onus on Obama, and when you do that you lose creditably for your argument. ESPECIALLY considering the concessions Obama has made.

True. 9/11 must have been a non-event for you.

Iraq was and remains a completely questionable edevor in my mind. Don't expect me to whole heartedly support it. Afgan was the game and we took our eye off the ball IMHO.

Sooner or later you liberals have to stop blaming Bush. This is and was a Demoncratic operation, they controlled Congress when he took office and continued to control office til 2010. They control the purse strings, they own it....

No, you are giving him a pass... He is a complete and utter failure...

Your assessment of me is insignificant and carries no weight. This is not about me. It is about the failures of Obama and the Congress. I could give a fuck what you think about my credibility, this is about Obama's credibility, not mine. He failed.

There are published traditions regarding the Group coin among men. There is; also, an unpublished qualification for which women can receive it.
