Biden...Obama will be tested in his first 6 months.

[MrLabGuy]

Great...Biden even sees Obama as weak. I guess that is why earlier in the campaign before being nominated as VP he doubted Obama's experience to be President and in fact said the job did not lead itself to on the job training.

Just what America needs...Our enemies to test our new Weak commander in chief.

Regardless of who is Commander in Chief, the will be tested. True, McCain has already been tested, and we've seen his answers to the test...

Bomb, bomb, bomb...Bomb, Bomb Iran.

Bombing works, hence no terror attacks in the US since 9/11/2001. May be an ugly answer, and perhaps not the only answer, but the answer worked.

IMO, nobody is going to get 'tested'. Al Queda is near nil, Taliban couldn't organize an attack outside of the ME if it tried and the economy is so torched globally, nobody is making enough money to attack.

What you should be asking yourselves is whose tax plan over the next 4 years will leave you better or worse. Well, that and as a NRA member I couldn't vote for Obama because his stance on personal guns is way out of line with mine along with the majority of his supposed policies.

You'll pay for my $500 tax refund and my wife and I do pretty well. We're by no means poor.

I don't know about your definition of "works", but my definition of "works" is that nobody gets killed, including those who live in other countries.

Well your definition in war time is WRONG then Probably why you've never worked for DoD.

Eric's response reminded me of a movie where war was sanitized by computers assigning casualties to civilians who were then put to death in a "humane" manner. For the life of me I can't remember the name of the movie.

Bombs that don't kill Let's just drop leaflets on the battlefield with smiley faces and valentine cards.

Kind of reminds me of the "enabling act" passed in Germany in 1933. It specifically stated that the increased powers were only as long as the current conflict lasted, which of course was forever.

"in war time" = forever

Name a year in the past 70 years when you believe we were not at war, and I will provide you with examples of where our soldiers were fighting at the time.

That is probably true but what is your point, we should just stop bombing?
