Jeff, do you ever hire/train any young people on the job? They are very
personable, socially aware, "different", they love change, but they
can't do jack **** without someone holding their hand for awhile - who's
gonna be holding Obama's hand?


Obama is 45 years old.

My favorite president, Theodore Roosevelt, was 42 years old when
inaugurated.

But he had years in training, years in leadership roles, years of
worldly experience. And, there were no nuclear weapons in the hands
of terrorists. Hell, the U.S. didn't even *know* what a terrorist
was. The world is a helluva lot different that it was 100 years ago.
I think Teddy would be ok today, but I have my doubts about Obama.

It's not looking like it will be her, but should it happen, remember to
thank all the Republicans who did nothing to reign in the Unitary Executive
with no common sense.

You mean to tell me that Hillary is running because Bush is POTUS?
She'd be running and complaining if Jesus Christ Himself was POTUS.
The Dems control the House, yet I see no impeachment proceedings.
Until then, all of your complaints are worthless, Scott.

No, I mean to say that if Hillary is the nominee, she will win because Bush
is POTUS. You don't need impeachment proceedings to rope the guy in-- and
he has been pretty well impotent since the Dems got the majority.

In fairness, I would like to see the Dems do more. If the Dems demand a
timetable, they would get it. It's Bush who is over the barrel. You don't
need the 60 votes for cloture-- its the 51 votes you need for passage that
hold the most power. I think the Dems are foolishly trying to avoid an
even worse "do-nothing" label.

I'm not complaining, Dave. I'm pointing out that the GOP did not need to
let this guy kill your party. Bush said "Trust me, guys", and he really
meant "Bend over, guys". When it became clear that the man could barely
manage flushing a toilet bowl, let alone a war, it should have been the
Republicans in the lead demanding simple competence. It should have
started right after the last election. If a high profile conservative took
the lead, that man would have been a strong contender in this race.

sorry for replying to my own post, but ...

in his 45 years and as a state and national legislator what exactly has Obama
done that matters?

and I don't mean what has he said or how does he make you feel!

is there any legislation with his name on it?

has even been pesent to vote at a reasonable level of attendance?

what about earmarks - has he answered that question?
