you can go tell the families of those murdered by global militancy,
much of it fostered by an out of control military industrial complex,
no my fault I won the fucking nobel prize for peace

obama still has to prove himself; hope is cool but its getting mighty
stale--who gets any prize for potential. i should get my six figure
salary--hey, I got potential
its what global markets are all about when they're not being
rigged--money is potential.

hard not to be cynical dude--the bastards have fucked the system and
are getting rewarded still for continuing on--the US are major
shareholders (or warrants) of many of these companies--show some
balls, we own them now but u wouldn't know it so far w/ all of
erstwhile Goldman Sachs heads running the show. obama needs to feel
the anger in this country over that

can't we at least try to cut military spending in half?

I think I'm fairly informed about things. I surely didn't vote for
Obama to be another Clinton.
he's already practically a Republican or at least acting like one.

don't really care but getting rewarded for just being a president who
isn't prez bush is ridiculous--its like a novelist winning the damn
prize after writing one book.
and it really paints him into a corner
and for yr info, reagan did more for nuclear disarmament

Obama still got time to grow a pair but I ain't seen it yet
