Frankly, I'll go with the experienced, knowledgable, nuanced, strong guy who has killed bin Laden and multiple Al Quaeda operatives, not the inexperienced guy with zero foreign policy experience, who offends our allies and wants to start war with Iran.

I have had you on ignore for a long time now but wanted to see your opinion on this firestorm of a video that has been released so I took a look. I would love to hear more of the President behind closed doors, or even answering a single unscripted question for that matter but we will never have that besides "that's why 'they' cling to their guns and bibles".

I have never given any flack to the President for his continuation of Bush's policies that led to the discovery and killing of OBL and will continue to give credit to the operatives that performed the task and the President for giving the order.

Here is the entire "guns and religion" quote by President Obama. The obvious difference between Obama and Romney? Obama wasn't dissing anybody, he was showing understanding and empathy.

Obama was also saying he would represent and help these people - as opposed to Romney saying he would ignore half of America.

President Obama: But the truth is, is that our challenge is to get people persuaded that we can make progress when there's no evidence of that in their daily lives.

You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, a lot -- like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them.

And they've gone through the Clinton administration and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are going to regenerate, and they have not.

It's not surprising, then, that they get bitter, and they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. At least in some communities, anyway.

There are many one-on-one interviews available on YouTube of the President talking, unscripted, both to individual reporters and press pools. Oh, and a major meeting that was televised live between Republican leadership and the President - which caused the GOP to cancel the idea of a monthly publicized meeting as Obama raked their asses over the coals on CSpan.

And there are several books discussing the "behind the scenes" of the administration's first years in office.

Do you not read or watch television?

PS - your statement is called "a red herring" Nice try changing the subject to an untrue falsity.

Always available for the hard hitting questions. Please.
Your defense of the President in all facets is a joke and you are the only one here that still seems to believe he is somehow different than the rest of DC, it is still a joke to watch you defend Him over and over again despite the fact that he is a typical Chicago style DC retread of those before him and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wall St.
Back on ignore with you.

Of course - ignore is easier than reading the info that you allege you seek. Or debate and discussion based upon questioning, rationality and facts. It's how cults like the rabid right wing (not conservatives) keep their members and keep the Obama Derangement Syndrome of fear and scare tactics brewing.

Look out! His middle name is Hussein! MUSLIM! KENYAN! NOT ONE OF US! ANTI-AMERICAN COLONIAL VALUES! BIRTH CERTIFICATE FAKED! APOLOGIES FOR AMERICA! COMMUNIST! CHICAGO POLITICS! OWNED BY WALL STREET! SOCIALIST!

I especially like the "owned by Wall Street" one - LOL

Good for Romney for having the guts to stick by his words unlike the lying weasel Obama who couldn't admit that he attended a church every Sunday for 20 years and listened to some nut job spew racist hateful garbage.

I am still trying to figure what was wrong with what Romney said, big deal he insulted lazy, freeloading moochers who weren't voting for him anyone. He correctly stated that he doesn't have to worry about getting their votes because they are obviously voting for their sugar daddy Obama. Besides the usual nut liberal writers and bloggers I really don't see anyone else making a big deal about this, but then again those nut job liberal writers have been trying to bring down Romney since day one so maybe most people have just tuned them out.

Personally I am more concerned that Obama is more concerned about the feelings of murdering, intolerant thugs over protecting the free speech rights of an American, if he gets away with this who knows which rights he will be coming for next.
