Questioning Society discussion

What do you think of Obama? What do you hope he'll do in his time in office?

I hope he will fix our economical state and that whatever reform he uses will be long lasting.

I agree with that 100%

I'm sorry, but I really don't like him. I'm not impressed with what he's been doing latley. For one thing he has signed the Freedom of Choice Act. NO NO NO NO!

I'm not sure wut we are talking about but my picture is of Obama and it has my name in it!

why yes aliya, yes it does. lol. And I'm pro-choice, I think it's a good thing.

So do I.

haha. we have like the same name, your aliya and im alia!

I know how do you pronounce your name?

(all-lee-a)

like yours i think

SAME HERE!

sweet! thats so weird

I know! Whenever I see your name I fell like Ii spelled my name wrong, because sometimes I forget how to spell it.

Lol, just like Brooke.

Funny story. Today when we had to write our names on the ISAT test booklets I had to ask Brooke if I spelled my name right because it didn't look right.

Wait? You asked Brooke, the person who hasn't been able to spell your name for like a year?

I don't understand your logic, Aliya.

I know I wasn't thinkng at the time. Which I should have been because we were about to take a test.

Haha, yeah taking the ISATS typically involves thinking.

I know hey check out this saying I found it ina book it's pretty creepy, "Young girls love a hose and a sandbox. They also love to to rip off their clothes after they get them wet. Don't freak out."

Wait what? What kind of books are you reading Aliya? lol

My brother showed it to me it's a parenting book I decided to read it because it has some funny sayings in it.

Ohhh. Strange parenting advice though.

I know thats what I thought.

interesting...

ha ha you all had isats- I didn't!!!


Bringing up what Ally said earlier, what did you think of Obama's Freedom of Choice Act?

Good thing :) very very very good thing.

i Think its a good idea to!! I am soo excited for Obama! I think he will do great and he is soo much better than Bush in my opinion

I completely agree.

me too.

i don't trust him at all

and no it's not because i'm racist, or think that he's a terrorist

it's more the fact that he seems to live in that fantasy world where all the problems will be solved in the end

lies...

I am starting to question his ability to be president. He's only been in office for a few weeks and he's put the nation in more debt. Also he's talking about banning guns, basically taking away are right to bare arms and which Im not happy about. I don't approve of guns but that is messing with what our founding fathers created and fought for. My brother in-law even thinks that with Obama aspresident, we are headed for a dictatorship. I think it's a bit suspicious that he has his birth certificate locked up in Hawaii and wont let anyone see it. Sounds like someone has got something to hide.

I personally think that none of the canidants would make a good pres., we need a GOOD leader who will do more than just talk of change for our economy. We need one that will take action, with out putting us into debt.

but thats really hard to find

not really. infact one of the best leaders would be a teenager.
Why?
-They've had some schooling and know what the world's about. They aren't stupid.
-Their mind and plans are simple, and reliable.
-They'd get to the point quickly.

But when I say teenagers, I say teenagers who won't try to pass laws like banning parents and other foolish things like that. I mean teenagers like some in this group. Teenagers with an Enlightened and imagitive mind.

ha ha

NOT a good idea if you ask me, but whatevs

but if he bans the right to bear arms, we're just going to be taken advantage of by a later president someday

Couple things!! 1 he is NOT trying to take away the privilege to bare arms- some stupid ass fanatics think that -but hes not. its really not

2 yes we are in debt but he is doing this to try and help our country- he is taking money and sending to roads jobs health care- its a stimulas check- so that the jobs can have more money and so the taxes will lower-
Yes its scary but he is doing his best he can he is talkin to anyone and every one who will give him advise- he is even talking to Republicans- he doesnt know how this is going to turn out but he is TRYING!! He has only been in office for like 3 months give him a break a chance jeez- you cant see how well he will do as a president in 3 MONTHS! YOU JUST CANT!

i'm not saying it's all his fault! or more like any of it. I'm saying that the bush family really brought us here, cause we've been in debt for ages, just bush and his lousy family made it worse.

(no offense to bush fans.)

exactly - The Bush's got us into this mess and obama is just trying to fix it. thats all.

exactly and it's not gonna change with the wave of a magic wand it takes time.

a LOT of time.

YES!! exactly exactly - it takes time some people think that oh now hes president for a week everything must change- it doesnt work that way not even close

I know, its stupid to think that after a few weeks either the country's all better or he's not fit to be president.

well, we're all human, and quite a few of us aren't that smart.

i hate it when ppl judge another person or their actions to quickly.

i hate it when people judge others on what NBC and the New York Times (maybe even Al Gore) says :)

Well, they are followers NOT leaders.

I love Obama.

I hate it when people do stuff like that and don't even glance at them!
