I’m wondering how long he’ll last???
He's got the balls of a brass monkey. (No offense, Mav.)

They wanna test a ballistic missile. We say missile they say testing rockets for satellite launches, UN Resolution says they can't do either anyway. So S. Korea, Japan, and the US say if they do fire it, we will intercept it and shoot it down. N. Korea says we are preparing for an invasion, seals up it boarders, and says if we shoot it down it will be an act of war.
Most 'experts' are waving it off as more N. Korean rhetoric and testing the waters with Obama to gauge his reaction and strength.
It takes a lot of guts to do what you think is right... and no matter what ya think of the guy he's sticking to what he believes in.
As long as we stick to discussions on general views of how fast he is moving, why he is moving so fast, what factors are involved, etc we are fine.
We get stem cell research or politics into the convo, then yea we gotta move it outta here!!
I would like to think we can handle that... but just in case remember Evil Monkey sees all!!!!
(spooked yet?)

Really, what Obama is doing is blowing away what I used to say about all Presidents.
They were all just icons for the public to focus on, but the real power lied with the “advisors”, generals, etc that had been there for generations. Now, Obama is saying damn to them all and making decision based on his promises and own ideals. It seems we may finally have a President and not a puppet. It’s very interesting. Some may not agree with what he is doing, but he was elected, so I’m rather pleased to see him shaking some tress and not just sitting back and taking the handouts under the table. Right or wrong, he is definitely acting differently, boldly, and strongly.
I'm just surpirsed is all. But......if this thread does turn South, close it fast Mav!!!
That's the second time I have done that to that poor kitty!!!
And I agree, I like the take charge attitude, and we did elect him. But just as much as we don't want him to loose his 'voice' in the coming years, we have to make sure we don't loose our voice as well!
That voice brought on some change, we need to keep it up!
OK but lets not go past NON-embryonic stem cells please... I don't wanna have to stay up late giving everyone my Evil Monkey Eye!!!!!
(Note to self: invent Evil Monkey Eye look)
