I have seen no substance to him. I have only seen him parrot his prewritten opinions and or agree with his opponent or avoid the question when he doesn't. I think he is an excellent orator. I would vote for him if I could believe he is his own man. I can't.
Also please know. This forum is not my thing. I don't have thick enough skin to play in here. I saw this post and curious, I read it and agreed.
I personally don't care one iota if any of you agree with me at all. I don't mean that in a mean way, I just really don't care. So I am not trying to influence you in any way by casting aspersions on Obama, and I won't defend my opinion any further.
I think he is really scary.

I guess my point would be there is no more substance in the post associating him with being a puppet than there is in the statement
"I have seen no substance to him. I have only seen him parrot his prewritten opinions and or agree with his opponent or avoid the question when he doesn't. I think he is an excellent orator. I would vote for him if I could believe he is his own man. I can't.". There are plenty of opinions out there, I just can't for the life of me see how all of the name calling and aspersions are productive. We are all certainly entitled to an opinion I just have a hard time seeing it degenerate into essentially name calling and accusations(not refering specificaly to the above post BTW) based on propaganda and spin.
If someone appears to be controlled by a puppeteer the logical question would be who does the puppet master appear to be. It simply behooves us to try to look beyond fear and emotion to substance and facts.
I honestly and in a non-malignant way also could care less if you agree with me...it holds no importance. And intelligent exchange of ideas based in fact does.
