Mayor ... good comments, a little misplaced since it seems like we're slowly sliding into the dustbin of history.

The country is broken ... need a little race war lesson ... just look up the street at Zimmerman, you know, the poor "white" hispanic who Sharpton, Jackson, and all the brothers condemned (even Odumbo waded in with the "my son" comment) -- yet, in large cities across this nation they senselessly "pop" one another over drugs or "gettin' dissed".

Obama is a socialist at heart, in deed and thought ... he, you, and Klaus can deny it all you want. Doesn't change reality.

Anyone thinking Obama should be reelected is either of color or has bought into the class warfare being shoved down our throats. This country IS exceptional ..... we got lucky with size and geography, but it's the people that have made it great. Look at the Olympics, go stand in the middle of a really big supermarket, freely travel to San Diego by air, car, boat, bus, or bicycle and take a tour of the Midway.

It is US capitalism that has enabled US citizens and much of the rest of the world to thrive. Who doesn't thrive under capitalism? Dictators, theocracies, and socialist states. Obama, idiot-in-chief, doesn't get it and never will. Out the door in November!!!!!

I guess I just see things a bit more optimistically than you. The fact that there was no race war as a result of the Zimmerman event proves my point. Yes, some people vented and groused a bit - and it continues - but there were no riots like after the Rodney King event or others. If anything, Obama and Rick Scott calmed the situation.

How exactly has there been an erosion of capitalism in the US since Obama was elected? Even under the president you hate, the US Olympic teams have won a record number of gold medals and medals overall. We just landed the most sophisticated probe ever on Mars and the economy is recovering - although more slowly than we would all like. We have successfully privatized space travel (something all good conservatives should applaud,)gas is up a bit this week but still down from W and no where near the $5 - $8 Republicans promised us with Obama. The Stock market has recovered and the housing market is finally showing signs of life. Oh, and we got Bin Laden, but still no WMDs

It doesn't sound like the sky is falling to me. Don't let them try to scare you. Open your eyes and see what is really going on around you. Its really not so bad.
