    OMG, people. Lighten up! 1) Bush(es) led this country for 16 of the past 24 years. That seems to indicate a serious brewing that has bubbled over and left us in this "mess". 2) Obama was NOT elected because of his race. He was elected because he represents a change in the national government for the next generation. And if specteker believes we are all "idiot masses", what does he suggest as an alternative? 3) Excellent! If Obama, who has hit the ground running since BEFORE the election, can cause a bit of excitement in a country that sorely needs it, Bravo! And a "baby boom" of this proportion will hardly cause a mass over-population. The baby boom following JFK's election only created more jobs. Look it up.

    wow, I can't believe how misguided and non-objective people can really be. I think the big picture here with Obama is that he gave the country what Bush could not, hope for the future. If Bush isn't to blame for what is going on with the country, then who is? Surely you can't blame Obama! The man hasn't even been sworn in yet. The last 8 years have been a testament to the Bush legacy and if you can't see that, then you are blind and in denial. You need to set aside your prejudiced and wake up to the fact that this was just the shot in the arm that America needs. Join the ride! it's going to be a rush!

      I'm not a fan of any man, but seriously, Bush is not responsible for everything that's happened in the last 8 years, do some research, these situations take years of brewing before they bubble over. Our presidents are not dictators, they have many others under them (Obama being one of them), who direct America's path by the votes they cast on important issues. As far as Obama, as I said I'm not a fan of any man, but may God be with him and I wish him well, because the rest of us hang in the balance.

    Obama won because of his race...the idiot masses confused that for "change" with the MUCH NEEDED CHANGES that are required in this country...can anyone tell me WHAT EXACTLY it is he is going to change?...FU(K THE DEMOCRATS AND THE REPUBLICANS!!! They are all bourgeois politicians who ONLY serve the bourgeoisie...the proleteriat is not a constituency in their new world order agenda....

    Enough already. You would think he was Jesus Christ Superstar. Well he is not. Wait for him to lead and make good decisions, then gauge him on his progress. Then go have a baby - in a stable home with two parents, just like Obama and his wife did.

    Wow people are pathetic, I don't buy into all this celebrity bullshit and that is what Obama apears to be. Don't get me wrong I'll support him and the decisions he makes even though I don't agree with any of them. The reason I will do that is because I am a proud American soilder, and I will stand behind whatever leader simply because they lead the country that I love so dearly. Come on now people Obama is no God, he is a human being. Don't let one man influence such a huge decision, you are an idiot if you decide to bring a child into this world simply because Obama was elected president.

    Enough already. You would think he was Jesus Christ superstar. Give him a chance to lead and weigh his decision making progress then. Then go have a baby - and raise it in a stable home with two parents.

    Wow some people are really pathetic. I don't buy into all this celebrity bullshit and that is exactly what it appears Obama is. Don't get me wrong I'm a proud fighting American soldier and I will stand behind Obama simply because he is my commander and chief of the country I love, but I think people are dumb if they are going to let one man influence such a decision. Obama is not a god. He is just the leader of a great country, he is a human being, NOT A GOD!!!

    The problem with the world is that there is so many dumb people. why bring in more? Isn't 6.5 billion of us enough? We can have fun, but use birth control like smart people would!! We want barak to be President of a Country that is smart.

    Does anyone really want to know the circumstances surrounding their conception?
    Even if they did, would they be proud it was at the height of a rather absurd political furor?
    Seriously, no matter how good he ends up being, Obama is still the most overhyped politician in modern history.

    Thats all we need are more welfare babies.

  • Posted By: sloballer6438 @ 11/14/2008 8:03:29 PM

    Like we need another child in this world? Isn't 6.5 billion or more enough for you? I am very happy that Obama is our next president, but let's have fun and still use Birth control ok?

    What a shallow article! The scary part is that there might be a population of citizens who feel this way. Give me a break.

    Obama will go down in History as being one of our Best Presidents. Thank God for Change. We are overcoming!

    I hope these babies will be born into national security and not another terrorist attack since our country will not make national security a priority in the new administration. Did'nt Jimmy Carter try to negotiate with terrorists? That's what we can expect from Obama - Biden. I'd wait to bring a baby into this .

    A baby boom? Well, most people don't give enough serious thought to having a baby in the first place or this country wouldn't have thousands of children in Foster Care. Also, didn't Obama say that he was going to educate his daughters so if they get pregnant they won't have to "live with their mistake for the rest of their lives?" So, the country can rejoice and make jolly because "no worries" - the abortion clinics can handle any small mistakes. Dole some money out and out goes the problem and no baby boom! People in this country are covered so to speak regarding late abortions too - so if one doesn't get to the abortion clinic on time and has a late abortion it's really ok. The future President of the United States doesn't think there should be a law against it. Isn't that great? No American will have blood on their hands because without a law against it it must be absolutely fine. Not contributing to any baby boom here but I did buy a cute little bird and named it Obama - it poops alot and doesn't have Obama's flair with words yet. I'm hoping neither my little Obama or the President Elect will lay an egg this year! Good article however, shows how the federal schools are doing their job on a grand scale. It's so great being an American - we have no worries even when we make mistakes. Love being an American!
