President Obama Too Weak & Ignorant To Quit Smoking, Can He really Lead the USA?28 2009

The question comes immediately to mind whether, President Obama, possesses the intelligence, strength and human willpower to lead the most powerful democratic country in the world if he allows himself to be physically and emotionally dragged round by “tar & nicotine.” The question goes deeper. How powerful and potent a leader a President can Obama truly be if too weak to quit the smoking habit.

Read Bill Clinton's Dodging the VIetnam Draft Letter and He Says He "loathes the US Military!"

Dear Colonel Holmes, I am sorry to be so long in writing. I know I promised to let you hear from me at least once a month, and from now on you will, but I have had to have some time to think about this first letter.

One thing which made the bond we struck in good faith somewhat palatable to me was my high regard for you personally. In retrospect, it seems that the admiration might not have been mutual had you known a little more about me, about my political beliefs and activities. At least you might have thought me more fit for the draft than for ROTC. Let me try to explain.READ»

GAY RIGHTS ARE CIVIL RIGHTS (!) END OF SUBJECT OBAMA (!)

In seemingly unending arguments for or against gay marriage in America, we hear continual reverberations of identical redundant and outdated arguments emanating from mouths of our politicians merely towing their party lines; creative thinking doesn’t seem to be involved. A student of United States Constitutional Law, I strongly believe their rhetoric is not what America’s founding fathers’ envisaged.READ»
