Why does Obama think with his heart and not his brain?

[Slayer537]

Because Obama does not think at all! He may be a good speaker, but that's about where it ends!

[Bothermenot]

Yes, you're right King Steve, you should have run against him. The world needs great intellects like yours.derrrrrrrrrr

[MichaelL7528]

Siding with radical muslems? When and where did you get that idea? You have to stop reading the dribble from Rush Limbaugh, and Ann Coulter. They know *nothing*.Regarding:"Because Obama does not think at all! He may be a good speaker, but that's about where it ends!" and what do John McCain, or George W Bush think with? Mr McCain keeps saying "we can WIN we can WIN" like he's coaching a losing high school foot ball team.

Obama doesn't think with either.Obama is a hollow shell. He is locquacious, a fine orator, like many other demagogs, but he does not seem to have any really creative ideas and is extremely naive. He is great on the stump, when pontificating but he seems to have trouble when in actual debate with another person. He's like a windup toy which talks a lot but doesn;t say anything.

[MistahCool6842]

well, he definitely does not use his brain when he speaks about certain things and does a helluva great job pissing people off like his comment about residents of small-town America “cling to guns or religion". That comes straight from the heart and was a brainless thing to say because he threw away so many votes. Hopefully he keeps up that good work :P

1. He is not siding with radical Muslims.2. He's giving back the money Bush stole from the government to pay the rich.3. He's not ending trade agreements, he's going to revise them and make them work for Americans.4. He's not going to make college free, but more affordable. There's a difference. Entrance standards are biased and need to be removed. Only certain schools should have entrance standards.5. You must think bums choose to be on the street and prefer not working. How naive!6. What war? We're in an occupation and the violence per capita is the same as here in America. What does Bush want? A Utopia? Hello 100 years! Iran is talking peacefully and Bush is not talking. Who looks more like a terrorist here? Does Iran not have the right to nuclear energy because they're an Islamic state?7. Republican fairness=legal slavery and further separation of classes. Democratic fairness=help for those who need it and God forbid we force those with money to help.8. He'll do better than W or Sidney will!

You are making a lot of assumptions, and most of them are exaggerations. He never sided with the Muslims, he just said he wants to talk with them. He never said anything about expanding the welfare rolls--and those 'with the greatest ability' (where ability means money). I fail to see how expanding education makes our economy less competitive--you are bass ackwards on that one. I could go on, but let's look at the alternative. A guy who wants to take away the tax break to your employer for giving you health care. Do you think your employer is going to give you a raise to cover the difference, or is the $1200 tax break you get going to cover that. It sounds nice and fair in theory, but in real life, we're screwed. (I haven't seen a health care plan I like out of any of the candidates, but messing up the status quo without trying to improve it is asinine.) Let me sum up what the Republicans will do for hard working Americans. Tax and spend--on the rich. The republicans have never made things cheaper for the 95% of Americans who aren't rich. They have encouraged the rich to get richer, at the expense of the hardest working americans. Then they blame hard working americans for not making enough money. If big business had kept up their end of the work ethic, a lot of Republican ideals would make sense. But when the bottom line is all that matters, people get screwed. If the government doesn't prevent that, we'll be back in the 30's by the 30's.

[Speedfreak2975]

Because he is just another uninformed and misguided LIBERAL.

Certainly you can disagree with some of Senator Obama's positions but why don't you research his actual positions first? The statements you make are NOT his positions.Senator Obama has never stated that he sides with radical Muslims. If you believe that he has provide us with a quote or link.He has never stated that he would provide money to those who refuse to work. If you believe that he has, provide us with a quote or link.He has discussed renegotiating trade agreement. With the value of the U.S. dollar almost nil our product could hardly lose their competitivenessHe has not suggested making college education free and reducing entrance standards. Actually the federal government has not control over either as colleges are not run by the federal government.He has not proposed providing health care to anyone. He has proposed universal health insurance. Providing private health insurance to everyone is a long way from nationalized medicine.Ending the occupation of Iraq makes Iran a world power? How does that work? What is the mechanism?How is Senator Obama being unfair to you?

[NancyB7283]

He thinks with his head, heart and has a BRAIN. He was the ***Lada in his Harvard Class and what Prez has ever had that kind of knowledge?? None that I ever heard of. Let us see, you were the big bully at school that never was told to stop it but to act like it because it was macho?? I hope I am wrong.Those trade agreements that Hillary and Bush pushed through again, are the things that are killing us. Prez.Bush went behind the American Peoples back and signed an agreement with Mexico and Canada signing OUR RIGHTS away. How did he do this???? I always said Cheney was running the government from his V.P.Position. His health stunk, and he still was allowed to run the U.S. He is the presidential one not Bush. I still believe that!Just wait and see.The 9/11 commission was formed to find out what happened, no word was said (that we ever heard) when the Pres. was going to be questioned, they told the commission that no recording of the questioning and that they would not be questioned separately. So the Prez. and V.P. were questioned, NOT UNDER OATH EITHER. I ? this as an American . And you still think Obama doesn't use his brain.Peace!
