Are die hard Obama supporters living in a fantasy world and are they blind to reality? If Obama went insane and ordered the attack on a country like New Zealand, would Obamanites claim he was a genius.

If Obama initiated a preemptive nuclear attack on New Zealand, would Obamanites still support him?
Would Obama attack Iran if they are close to getting nuclear weapons? Obama would just talk to them. Right?
I want to vote for good old Barack. He’s so nice. I just want to make sure that he would never pull a George Bush and order the invasion of a country to prevent them from getting nuclear weapons. Iran is just a small country compared to the old Soviet Union. The Iranians are just a bunch of harmless people. We really should try to understand their anger. Maybe we could drop a few bombs or something? Oh … I’m sure Speaker Pelosi could go over there and straighten things out! She could do it!
Can Obama stay focused on Health Care even under nuclear attack?
With many on the brink of bankruptcy and threat of nuclear war looming, Unemployment dangerously high if Pres. Obama gets control of Health Care then what industry will be next. What was his annual salary before he became President of the United States? Should his salary be brought under Government Control?
Will Bush Attack Pakistan just to beat Obama to the Punch / cheat Obama out of the chance to attack someone?

He’s a resilient guy I think if Bush cheats him out of Attacking Pakistan that Obama will find someone else to Attack
How will Obama counter a nuclear attack if he is away from his teleprompter?
How will he read the codes or ask for the briefcase?

Obama faces growing credibility crisis
By Edward Luce in Washington

Robert Gibbs, Barack Obama’s chief spokesman, got into hot water this week for daring to speak the truth – that the Democrats could lose control of the House of Representatives in November. But it could be even worse than that.
Contrary to pretty much every projection until now, Democratic control of the Senate is also starting to coming into question. While Mr Obama’s approval ratings have continued to fall, and now hover at dangerously close to 40 per cent according an ABC-Washington Post poll published on Tuesday, the fate of his former colleagues in the Senate looks even worse.
Add to that the continuing woes of Harry Reid, the Senate Democratic majority leader, in Nevada, where the Republican party’s recent nomination of Sharron Angle, a far-right and highly eccentric Tea Party supporter, appear to have had no positive effect on Mr Reid’s prospects, and the Grand Old party has a good shot at taking control of both houses of Congress. Worse for Mr Obama, political scientists say that at this stage in the calendar, there is almost nothing he can do about it.
“If you ask me where the silver lining is for President Obama, I have to say I cannot see one,” says Bill Galston, a former Clinton official, who has been predicting for months the Democrats could lose the House. “Just as BP’s failure to cap the well has been so damaging, Obama’s failure to cap unemployment will be his undoing. There is nothing he can do to affect the jobless rate before November.”
The direction of the data could hardly be worse. According to Democracy Corps, a group headed by Stanley Greenberg, a liberal pollster who is a close friend of Rahm Emanuel, Mr Obama’s chief of staff, a majority of US citizens see Mr Obama as “too liberal”.
Astonishingly, 55 per cent of citizens think Mr Obama is a “socialist” against only 39 per cent who do not share that diagnosis. The same poll shows 48 per cent support for Republicans against just 42 per cent for Democrats. The numbers are eerily similar to 2006, except that it was George W. Bush’s Republicans who were on the receiving end four years ago.

“The bottom line here is that Americans don’t believe in President Obama’s leadership,” says Rob Shapiro, another former Clinton official and a supporter of Mr Obama. “He has to find some way between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma City bombing, I can’t think of how he could do that.”
—[SO HOW COULD THIS "EVENT" SAVE HIM?]
In private, informal advisors to Mr Obama are almost as negative. According to one, the US public’s loss of confidence in Mr Obama’s leadership is a factor above and beyond their dissatisfaction over the state of the real economy, which continues to slow as last year’s $787bn stimulus starts to run dry. The adviser, who asked to remain anonymous, said the public did not know what Mr Obama really believed. Examples include his lukewarm support last year for a public option in the healthcare bill and his equally lukewarm support today for a Senate bill that would extend unemployment insurance and aid state governments to keep teachers in their jobs.
In both cases, Mr Obama has offered only token, negotiable, support. “I never thought I would say this, but even I’m unsure what President Obama really believes,” says the adviser. “Instead of outsourcing decisions to Congress, he should spell out his bottom line. That is what leaders are for.”
Next week, Mr Obama is likely to sign a historic Wall Street re-regulation bill into law. Earlier this year he did the same for healthcare. But polls show the public either does not care, or even opposes these otherwise big reforms. “The longer this goes on, the more it looks like Obama wasted his first year on healthcare,” said the outside adviser. “It’s still the economy, stupid.”

That is actually from the Financial times, and the article is putting a good spin on Obama – they are PRO-Obama.
It is not a diatribe, it is an article from a mainstream publication.
He was a top ADVISOR, excuse me.
Let me put it this way, the guy that said this was Clinton’s Carl Rove.
rz1971 – People rallied around George Bush after 9/11 (that was also the reason he was re-elected). People rallied around Clinton after OKC bombing.
Will there be an attempted attack on the Obama Inauguration next Tuesday?
With how many terrorist organizations in our country and in the world does anyone think an attack could happen next tuesday in Washington D.C.
Why do some Democrats attack my view-point about Obama when not everything I say is negative?
It almost democrats don’t like any debate on Obama’s programs as if it’s wrong to critique anything Obama does or say’s.
I’m VERY glad we have Checks & Balances….it made me sleep better when Bush was President AND had a very vocal opposition to him, I really like that system and I believe Obama should be scrutinized on everything he does………………it works!
I’m not against everything he does and say’s or stands for.
Here’s a pro-Obama issue I feel that is positive (to show fairness)
I believe Obama is an excellent role-model for black youth, Obama has replaced the rapper image of what a black man should be. He’s clean, well spoken, intelligent, educated, soft spoken with weird twisted rhymes that bash women, police and white people in general.
In this regard I think he’s an excellent example
Other than the 2nd Amendment,What other parts of the Constitution does Obama plan to attack?
We already know for certain he will do everything within his power to diminish or eliminate 2nd Amendment rights.It’s coming soon.But what other parts does he plan on attacking?
When is FOX News going to attack Obama again?
McCain is already locked up for the Republican Nomination, FOX News has a lot of time in their hands. So, when is the next big attack on Obama?
I can’t wait! I hope it’s something BIG – not like the one about the Muslim school story, that was lame.
Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud says he is going to attack the Obama White House, who put him up to this?
Is this the latest Republican attempt to derail the recovery from the Bush Depression? A Rush Limbaugh publicity stunt? McCain’s revenge?
