I never liked Bush very much but I certainly didn't HOPE for his failure at the expense of my family's future. With Bush, you at least knew your family had a future! And it wasn't the third-world impoverished future that looms under the Obama administration. Bush couldn't get Congress to act responsibly in regards to the country's economy, but at least he understood the nature of the threat from jihadists who claim no country, but desire control of the world. Now we have a President who we know little about, but that which we DO know is highly disturbing. Birthers may be wrong about Obama's nationality, but their request for more personal openness by the man in the nation's highest office is totally inline with fair expectations. By the way, the Constitution that is being ignored (or worse, belittled) by the President provides for the continuation of government during various crises. Obama simply has to step aside for the duration of the court proceedings (as if he would do that voluntarily, but there is guidance for that, as well.)

It seems that YOU want to see the government SHUT DOWN right in the middle of the most serious economic situation since the 1930's Sometimes doing nothing is much wiser than doing anything. and doing pretty much anything other than what Obama is doing would be a better path....including nothing.

I never liked Bush very much but I certainly didn't HOPE for his failure at the expense of my family's future. I hope for Obama's failure because his success will be at my family's expense. Other than Obama's blatant racism, his policies seem to be based on a dreamy teenage idealism rather than any common sense. He's like a kid with a no-limit credit card buying everything his little heart desires. Unfortunately, we are his parents and will have to pay the bill at the end of the month. And worse yet, there's no way we will be able to pay the bill, so our children will have be saddled with the bill. Talk about paying for the sins of their fathers. Supporting Obama's policies is the ultimate in instant gratification. Something we expect from teenagers, not from mature adults. And it is incredibly selfish to pay for our current wants with our children's future. I can't think of one Obama policy that I want to succeed because it is at the cost of my family's well being. But than that, because his policies are childish and immoral.
