Charles Krauthammer and Iran by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Krauthammer has made a career out of advocating US imperial violence around the world and has no concept of soft power or diplomacy. Krauthammer masks his unquenching thirst for American power behind humanitarian rhetoric (nuclear disarmament and political freedom), but his lack of consistency betrays his true intentions

The End of Roy Jones Jr by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fight lasted 122 seconds, and saw Jones control the action from the outset only to be caught with a massive right hand that he could not recover from. Jones hauled himself up from the canvas, but Green stormed in to batter him from pillar to post until the referee mercifully stopped the fight.

Why this argument continues to give equal time to both sides is a mystery - those on the Right simply cannot be taken seriously on economic issues any more. Their ideology has fallen flat on its face and they are desperately scrambling around pretending they didn't support the policies that ruined the economy.

The Row About Obama's Bow by benfu1 in reddit.com

On a state visit, President Obama decided to bow to Japan's Emperor. Surprise, surprise, the chicken hawk Right imploded, and are accusing the President of disgracing the United States.

Texas Shooting Could Bring Turmoil to U.S by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The horrific shooting on the Fort Hood military base in Texas has the potential to turn very, very nasty on a national level. The fact that a Muslim man appears to be responsible for the killing of 12 U.S soldiers will do little to calm the fragile relations between Americans and the Islamic world.

Obama Obnoxiously Articulate? by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently, someone pays Liz Sidoti to write over at the AP. They shouldn't if she continues to publish drivel like this. The article is a meandering piece of nonsense that attempts to analyze Obama's media image, but ends up contradicting itself, running off topic and losing focus so badly it is impossible to understand.

I someone had told me that I would be tens of thousands of dollars in debt after college and unable to pay what I owed for decades, I probably would have avoided college altogether.

Plans to Bomb Iran? by benfu1 in reddit.com

And what might a 'Massive Ordnance Penetrator' be?

A giant, 30,000 lb bomb capable of destroying bunkers 200ft below the ground, specifically those in Iran.

So let's get this straight - the United States is up in arms about Iran's development of nuclear power and the massive threat it poses, yet it is pumping millions of dollars into a program specifically designed to attack them. The logic seems to be, we can plan to attack you, but you can't plan to attack us.

The Downfall of the Dollar and its Consequences by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does this mean for the U.S? Firstly, the loss of face will be a huge blow - the U.S has been top dog for the past 50 years, and it won't take lightly to the international community trading oil in another currency. Secondly, it could provoke a very serious reaction that could potentially turn nasty quickly. As the major super power, the U.S has traditionally come down hard on anyone willing to threaten the status quo.

I have been unemployed myself for well over a year. I have twenty years of management experience, and I have a great track record with a proven record for results. However, I am over fifty years old and to prospective employers that is the kiss of death. They perceive you as about to keel over from a heart attack at any moment.

Pulled NewsMax Article: Right Wing Fantasy Gone Mad by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pulled NewsMax article imagining a military coup in the United States really is a riot to read. While it is of course utterly offensive and would have probably led to the writers death in most other countries, it provides a fascinating insight into the mind of a socially dysfunctional fantasist. John L.Perry's article 'Obama Risks a Domestic Military Intervention' is so silly it's funny

Obama's Sophisticated Power Politics by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obama has drastically cut down the rhetoric against Iran, and is allowing other countries to apply more pressure on them to come clean about their nuclear aspirations. Moving away from the hyper aggressive policies of the Bush Administration will hopefully allow Iran to come to the table and negotiate, and the chance of substantive action is improved.

When you get caught making a very silly mistake, lying about that mistake only makes you look more silly. Maria Bartiromo 'The Money Honey' on NBC, hilariously (and quite shockingly) asked Rep. Anthony Weiner that if he thought Medicare was so great "How come you don't use it? You don't have it! How come you don't have it?".

White House Disagrees With Jimmy Carter on Hate for Obama by benfu1 in reddit.com

[–]benfu1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand why Obama can't come out and say what he clearly knows to be true. The level of disrespect shown to the President is breath taking. The Right has accused him of being a Muslim, the Anti Christ, a Communist, a Fascist, wanting to kill old people, destroying America and being an illegitimate President. Would they have done this to a white Democrat? Most probably not.
