Largest moist eyed, liberal media wankfest I've ever known: Obama and the BBC, some team.

There was a link on one of these threads to one of the nutball sites with people complaining about Obama, this below made me laugh though![]()

this is a good read IMO, fair bit of dirt towards the end. hippy-terrorists, slum-landlords, electoral massaging (bit vague that bit) www.davidicke.com/obama

It must be a really great time for black Americans, especially those of an older generation who suffered active discrimination. I can appreciate the gravity and significance of such an inauguration but it's not something I'm going to throw a party over!![]()

oh piss off with the icke link
honestly, the man is a nutjob



Why do people keep calling it Obamaina anyway? Obamarama where it's at.![]()
He's not George Bush. That's probably part of it. A worldwide sigh of relief if you will ...

Is this aimed at me?Are you really sure he did offer the olive branch to those who did not support him? Peace money and the bible means more backing of Israel while maybe in public some well chosen rhetoric. In six months time you may be able to make judgement on where the US is going![]()


Why would anyone want to know who the US President is? He's not President of the fucking World![]()
Yes, yesterday was an auspicious day here in the United Empire of American Consumerism. I voted for the guy, and it's historic and all for us, but truth be told I'm far more interested in taking a look at him a year from now than I am in jumping into all the hoopla and hype. He gives a good speech and a trained wombat would be better than another minute of Bush, but until he actually starts to DO stuff, I am withholding judgement. All the hype right now reminds me a lot of the buzz when Bill Clinton was elected (big change, younger ideas, etc) and look how that turned out. I wish Obama the best, and I hope he does live up to the image, but I'd like him to earn it first.
An American told me this:
Great stuff, a good solid down-to Earth opinion without all the manic "Change garn'curm" chanting.
Have to admit tho, catching the news lately I find myself eager to catch footage of the guy doing President stuff.
