yes!

I agree. If you were talking face to face with a person, you would think very, very hard before you ridiculed him. There is a chance that you might get a swollen eye or worse.
Anyways, I feel that it takes a coward to do it behind a computer, where you can feel safe and secure, while you are demeaning other people. Just saying, that's all.

I've been called names
 

and insulted on this forum more times than I can count. We all get carried away, and say things in the heat of the moment that we later regret.

Almost sounds like a pre election participant....

anonymity is the most efficient amplifier!!!

Yes, your right, of course. It is human nature to strike back when you feel like you have been attacked. I am as guilty as anyone. Sometimes I walk away and come back later when I calm down.

If I've Offended Anyone
 

or hurt someone's feelings, I am genuinely remorseful.

Apology accepted. I also apologize. OK Lets have a group hug.:D

Not being disrespectful to you but trying to understand, you do not know who the Republican nominee will be, you do not know how much worst our country will be in 2012 but you say vote Obama 2012, what do you want more of from Obama, are you happy with the mood, direction of the country, economy, etc? Again just trying to understand.

I just have to weigh in with the attached article from CBS News at the time that George W. Bush left office.
_____________________________________________

"President Bush will leave office as one of the most unpopular departing presidents in history, according to a new CBS News/New York Times poll showing Mr. Bush's final approval rating at 22 percent.

Seventy-three percent say they disapprove of the way Mr. Bush has handled his job as president over the last eight years.

Mr. Bush's final approval rating is the lowest final rating for an outgoing president since Gallup began asking about presidential approval more than 70 years ago.

The rating is far below the final ratings of recent two-term presidents Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan, who both ended their terms with a 68 percent approval rating, according to CBS News polling.

Recent one term presidents also had higher ratings than Mr. Bush. His father George H.W. Bush had an end-of-term rating of 54 percent, while Jimmy Carter's rating was 44 percent."

___________________

At the present day, I believe the Obama approval rating is 41%. It is not high by any means but a heck of a lot higher than GW Bush's final rating.

I do not know how they conducted the poll, but I think Carter's rating would be closer to 5% at the most.

This, quoted above by KatzPajamas, would be why:

"Canada has one of the lowest rates of MRI scanning machines per capita in the developed world, with 6 MRI scanners per million people, compared to 40.1 in Japan, 14.4 in Switzerland and 26.6 in the United States. Pittsburgh alone has more MRI machines than all of Canada..........


MRI scans have become an essential diagnostic imaging tool, revealing problems that aren’t detectable by other more common tests such as x-rays and ultrasounds.

Also, MRI scans have the advantage of avoiding the ionizing radiation that’s used in other radiology tests such as X-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans and positron emission (PET) scans. ....

The social safety net that is Canada’s health care system was designed to ensure everyone is able to access necessary exams. But what do you do when you simply can’t wait the typical 12 to 18 months’ delay for your MRI scan?...."

Plain and simple. I am a lifelong Democrat and in the 12 presidential elections that I have been eligible to vote in I have yet to find a Republican candidate that I would vote for.
As far as the mood, direction of the country and the economy, no I am not entirely happy but I firmly believe I would be even less happy if McCain were now in the White House.

What could he have done to damage this country more that the Obama Administration?

Suspend his Presidency to figure out how to fix the economy????? :(
