@kuvasz,
Yes, thank you for the correction. It is indeed Evan Bayh, the Democrat Senator who is leading a group of moderate Democrats determined to slow down the Socialist BO. BO did not reckon with Democrats who know Socialism when they see it.

By the way, kuvasz. How is your dog? Still sick? I hear that Setanta's dog acquired a nasty infection from his master.

Careful!!!

If the Unemployment numbers continue to go up in the beginning of next year when the campaign season starts(and they will), BO will lose many seats in the House and some in the Senate--I don't know how many are too young to remember 1994 when Slick Willie's Health Plan was summarily rejected by the American people and the Republicans took over the House and Senate.

We will see. In the meanwhile, BO just doesn't know what to do about the moderate Democrats (led by Evan Bayh) who just will not accept BO's Socialist plans for the USA.

The major Iranian card in the Asian integration game is the gigantic South Pars natural gas field (which Iran shares with Qatar). It is estimated to hold at least 9% of the world's proven natural gas reserves.

As much as Washington may live in perpetual denial, Russia and Iran together control roughly 20% of the world's oil reserves and nearly 50% of its gas reserves.

@genoves,
When will President Obama take our troops out of Afghanistan? Every American life is precious. At least 5 74 American troops have been killed and 1,722 seriously wounded in Afghanistan. What are we doing there? President Obama has not explained our presence there.

Bring our troops back home!!!!!

Okay, I'll bite. Which president do you think had control of congress - regardless of party.


i didn't say president. or congress. i said government.

the republicans held the congress for +/- 13 years. for 8 of those years, there was a republican presidential admin. during that same 8 years, as i remember it, there was a majority of republican state governors.

sounds like a pretty good lock on government to me.

It will be very clear what Obamas policy is based on how he handles the coup in Honduras that replaced democratically elected leader Manuel Zelaya with the School of the Americas (SOA) graduate Romeo Vasquez.

@DontTreadOnMe,
Then, you assume the president of a given party has control of congress has a majority of the same party? I concede Dyslexia's example of LB Johnson. Can you think of another?

Late November" Generals, senior aides to President Barack Obama, defense experts and special-interest groups debate whether more U.S. forces should be sent to Afghanistan. Some push for no increase; others favor a boost of 20,000 to 40,000; and still others aim for as high as 80,000.

Dec. 1 " Obama orders 30,000 more troops for the war, saying Afghanistan can’t continue to be an incubator of global terrorism by al-Qaeda, the Taliban and other extremists. He also sets a deadline of July 2011 for U.S. forces to start withdrawing, although that’s later cast as a flexible target.

Early 2010 " The Camp Pendleton-based 1st Marine Expeditionary Force is sending units to the Taliban stronghold of Helmand province in southern Afghanistan.

April 2010 " By this time, Camp Pendleton commanders are expected to lead about 20,000 Marines in Helmand province. Their mission includes combating insurgents, providing day-to-day security, training Afghan forces and helping improve the region’s infrastructure.
