- DoD Watchers Mull the Next President
  Posted by okami from Military
  Kansas City Star | By Scott Canon | February 20, 2008 Truman had MacArthur. Kennedy stumbled into the Bay of Pigs. George W. Bush returned the force of nature that is Donald Rumsfeld to the Pentagon. Whoever becomes the next commander in chief will wade into the sometimes uneasy world where admirals and generals cross paths, and sometimes swords, with presidents.

You cannot be a Christian and vote for Obama

I agree with Okami again: freedom of speech is the most important issue.
However, as they are free to say whatever bull**** they want, still we are free not to waste our time on them! As I said, I am not that optimistic about Obama, but let’s see whether he has got any idea behind his smile, especially as welfare and international politics are concerned…

. . .gonna be a while. . .got a helluva lotta damage to undo. . .and if this is really gonna be a ‘free’ country, it’s gonna pop up again and again. . .it has to, otherwise, there’d be no freedoms.
i don’t like it. . .now one whit. . .but if this is truly ‘free’ country, we must expect that we will encounter thngs like this. otherwise it negates the very principle of freedom.

Hi okami,
I don’t know if USA are a racist nation, I don’t think so and I hope not. But I agree with you 100% on the other bits of your comments!
