The only arrogance is that of the President. The presumptive certainty that he speaks for all Americans. I think that one could say that he doesn't speak for the thousands who so arrogantly sacrificed their lives that day in the hopes of securing a better world for all of us.

I believe if you read the speech given by Chamberlain and the actions of Jimmy Carter, you would have a better understand of our current President.

Then again, why can't you and I build a nuclear power plant here but are forced to build wind and solar yet Obama supports Iran and their claim that they need nuke plants for power? Iran has far more sun and wind than many areas of our country, yet Obama wants them to have nuclear power. Whose side is the premier on?-

Just wait until they force the republicans to have senate meeting in the basement, oh wait, the GOP did that to the dems. You guys lost, suck it up and get over it. The american people voted and we decided we've seen what "your side" does and we said no thanks we're tired of it.

There is no mention in my comment of who won or lost. It is obvious that 'you won' and 'we lost'. What I was referring to was to whose side Comrade President was on. I simply stated he is on his own side and no one else's.

Yet, your comment is almost as simplistic as mine, which I find rather interesting in that you, as a well educated Neo-Marxist OBama liberal, should have been more erudite in you digression from my original comment.
Later Comrade Cuddy.

What I find interesting is the constant chant of "The government is incompetent" and then the desire to just continue to throw money at a department of that government. That is typical of all the accusations of liberal thinking. If the government needs fixing, you fix it before continuing to throw money at it.

This is the exact principle the beav was commenting on in another article. You do not continue to throw money at banks or other corporate entities without fixing them first.

pc25 - I gave you a positive on your first post. The article and your post were touching and fitting reminders of the bravery and sacrifice of the American soldiers on that momentous day in history.

However, this post is just another skewed. political jab that has no place in this board to honor the American military.
You are whining that Obama is arrogant in presuming to speak for all Americans. He may not speak for ALL Americans, but he certainly does speak for the MAJORITY of Americans.
The most arrogant of presidents was George Bush who lied and seduced the American public into accepting the illegal and immoral invasion of Iraq. Then even when the foundation of supposed evidence of WMD's was found to be all lies, even when the war spun down into chaos and sectarian hatred, even when France and Russia offered to replace our troops and finish the reconsruction, even when the American public grew disenchanted with Bush and disillusioned with the management of the invasion, Bush continued to pursue his little war and plunge our country ever deeper into debt.
He ignored all advice not conforming to his rigid ideas on the war. He ignored all public opinion polls that said Americans were tired of the war. (I recall the lowest point of the polls was 19% favorable at one point.). He proudly proclaimed himself the "Decider." He adamantly clung to his old, wrong decisions that have affected our country, its economy, the countries of Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and now the entire global economy.-

Absolutely.

Bush didn't speak for me AT ALL.
But I didn't "whine" about 'who' Bush spoke for.
As the President, he DOES represent America - period - for better or for worse. So whining about that is silly.
If you want to debate policies and actions of Obama or Bush or whoever - based on fact and documentation - have at it.
Otherwise, stop whining about whether or not Obama represents "you". He represents America - he does so because he was ELECTED to do so, just as Bush was elected to do so. -

I have to agree, President Bush was one arrogant SOB presuming to speak for all Americans and leading us into an unjust invasion and occupation of Iraq that has cost, and continues to cost us dearly. Nothing like the threat that these brave men help put an end too. Good call.
