    Comment: I think that busby needs to look at the other direction Limbough, O'Rielly etc the talking heads who do nothing but bash anyone who disagrees with their point of view. It seems like the people in the media who support Obama are supposed to act like the rest of talking heads. By the way have you ever heard a positive thing said about Omama from ANY of these so called media big shots.

    Comment: Whether or not Helen's assessment of GWB as the worst president ever is totally accurate, the damage his attitude and resulting actions toward the rest of the world has been the most severe and will require decades of fence mending to try and restore the respect previously enjoyed by both friendly and unfriendly countries.
    But more importantly, his ambition to be that which he is not has allowed the economy of this country to become mired in unprecedented debt--mostly to countries less than friendly to the U.S.
    And the myth that the U.S. is the "only remaining superpower" militarily has been exposed as not up to the billing any longer. That alone allows Russia to defy the U.S. to do anything about it's agression toward it's former soviet union allies. It allows other openly anti-American regimes to defy the U.S. to interfere with their agressive actions.
    And, more importantly, long standing allies of the U.S. have distanced themselves from cooperation with the U.S. on it's foreign relatiions policies.

    Comment: This is a great comment for swift-boat monsters: To let the American people know what is being done in their name. To undercover unnecessary and unfair secrecy aimed at protecting the manipulators of the truth. The role of the press is to seek the truth???and that's what should be done.

      Comment: Let's not forgetr brown noses like MSNBC, particularly Matthews and Olbermann, who bend over backwards to keep anything negative about Obama OFF THE AIR!

Isn't it ironic: Xerox is hoping it can profit by teaching companies how to reduce their printing.
