Why do you think all our sworn enemies support Obama? Am I the only one who gets nervous over this idea?

Update:

I never said who I supported, I just know that he received 250 million from countries. Some don't have our best interest at heart. It was that the name callers were the uninformed sheople.

Update 2:

Some of you don't pay attention, never said anything about the middle east. Don't make your own assumption. Please think "long and hard" before you answer. This was just a pondering question.

    I'm not nervous. I believe that Obama is a symbol of change for our country and our relationships with other countries. He is a lot different in his thinking than most people that have been in his position. Change is scary ... but a lot of the time it's necessary and successful. Lets just give him a chance first before we start worrying. Maybe those " enemies " you speak of, have hope that we can work through our differences and come to a mutual understanding rather than all this war going on. Just a thought ...

    Post 9/11 the world mourned with us. During the Iraq offensive, the world hated our government for what it did. No matter who you are, war gets tiresome after a while. Cooler heads sometimes prevail.

    Edit:

    I actually brought into the lie that if we don't fight the terrorist in Iraq, they'll fight us here INCONUS. You know as well as I do that terrorist can hide and strike anywhere in the Middle East and in the world. Just like the WMD lie. Where exactly are the WMD? Condi Rice was so adamant that there were WMD in Iraq. I guess Saddam sold them all? Such BS.

    The only sworn enemies we have is Al Qaeda. And I guarantee you they want Obama dead just as much as McCain.

    Is every middle eastern country a sworn enemy to you? Are you a racist or something? Don't you think the other middle eastern countries are just afraid another Republican will mean their country might be next on the invasion list?

    Al-Qaeda supported McCain's campaign, reasoning that he would bankrupt the US more rapidly than Obama would.

    All McCain's campaign could offer in response was that Hamas and (the recently rehabilitated, no-longer-terrorist) Qaddafi had made statements in support of Barack.

    Then they tried to say that the statement on the blog was just some isolated terrorist sympathizer cynically trying to discredit McCain, not someone who thought that a militaristic American foreign policy would be perfect to further radicalize islamist militants and hasten the demise of the American Empire.

    You should read up on this and come to your own conclusion. Several of us have given you different links to the same story.

    I don't. Everyone just sees what Obama being President means; a better USA and therefore a better world. With Obama, comes the confidence that no other country will be invaded. If Mccain had won, I would be on my tiptoes, scared of a nuclear attack. Especially, for Iran. Also, he has anger management problems. America has the greatest army in numbers, no one wants to be attacked by it. Basically, your enemies can take a sigh of relief and try to communicate and neogiate with the US now.

    1. Not true at all.

    2. Most of the world at large supports him. Are Europeans our "sworn enemies"?

    3. Look at his policies before you get fearful. I don't care if people support him in the worst parts of the world, it doesn't matter if he's not helping them.

    Your a fool. Obama is not a terrorist. That was a crooked campaign tactic and look where that got McCain. Even if our "sworn enemies" supported Obama I would rather take my chances with him then Palin. She was just awful.

    Well, I guess the sworn enemies you are speaking of are sworn enemies of the Bush administration. I think maybe they're also very much open to change.

  • 1 decade ago

    Actually your enemies wanted McCain because Obama isn't hot tempered enough for their liking (not to mention that Obama might actually fix what's wrong with the US which your enemies don't want to see happen).

    Of course a lot of US 'conservatives' are insane and think that friends (like France) are enemies.

    Maybe you should think long and hard about that whole "sworn enemies" thing... According to my recollection wasn't Iraq was all about liberation?? The middle east is NOT our sworn enemy!!!!!!!
