Experts?!?

If they were querying experts why would they be talking to a moron like O’Hanlon?

“It is important that Senator Obama hear from centrists on Iraq.”

Really? Important to whom? To a pack of ego-inflated maniacs
concerned with their failed ideology more than with humans, having spent their lives in their cocoon “think-tanks” boosting each other’s egos, many the spoiled brats of their parents semi-demetia elaborated theories on what makes the world go around.
They will continue to be invited as “pundits,” a polite word for wind-bag, to the shows that are watched less and less or serve as sleeping tablets to those who do.
Remember that word, innovation, now reserved for kitchen gadgets and new face-lifting techniques, while thoughts are taken out of the closet covered in dust and cobwebs and these right-wing chatter-boxes explain again and again they just haven’t found the “right” person yet. It is not their fault if Bush/Cheney blotched the job, all they want is for everyone to realize how right they are, listen to their advice and soon it will be the night before Xmas.
Cross their hearts and hope to die, it is not their fault if Santa is no longer coming to town.

Doesn’t he mean fascists? And I’d like to see some real liberals on TV this Sunday. Neither one will happen

Hey Obama, I say it’s really important for you to appoint a hedgehog to a key Pentagon post! Also, a penguin! Do what I say because I’m some guy! DOO EET!

O’Hanlon is a delusional fantasist. We listen to him at our peril. We make him relevant by listening.

O’Hanlon and Bloody Billy Kristol have been forever wrong about everything. Who listens to these liars?

Ahem. Yes, I also believe that Obama should appoint people who are committed to undermining his own policies.

Diversity don’t extend that far, bub.

“…ill-advised proposal for a firm and rapid withdrawal…”

As opposed to the ill-advised proposal for a firm and rapid insertion?

There are exactly three people who are listening to O’Hanlon and that is three to many.

Warhawks, I think, are much of the reason McCain lost. They are not interested in the economy and would put America further into debt.

And O’Hanlon wants more of the same?

“The scary thing is that Obama – no friend to true progressives – will probably do exactly this. Several Republicans will be on his advisory team and in his cabinet. Not much change there…”

There’s a couple like Hagel… well 1… that I wouldn’t be mad at.

OT: Have you seen Anthony Hopkin’s movie “Slipstream”? I was suprised of how much it reminded me of David Lynch’s style.

Eraserhead: “It is important that Senator Obama hear from centrists on Iraq”

When people say centrist I think unelected Washington consensus.

And Im quite sure Obama already knows their position.

Why does anyone care what OHanlon says – this is the guy who has never been correct.
He is a toady, a sycophant, suffereing from arrested development, who pretends to be an adult.

I now see a few comments that uhhhbama is actually showing the human development index. The Scandinavian countries also have the highest disposal incomes and the highest happiness factor. Sweden also has one of the highest longevity rates, lowest illiteracy rates, lowest unemployment rates (long tern less that 1%), the list goes on and on with these countries. The trashing of our constitution, torture, illegal spying on American citizens, disregard for the rule of law, perpetrated be the likes of George Bush and his conservative cohorts would have never happened in these countries. Uhhhbama’s mis-information and attitude for not caring about the facts is about the most un-American you can get. Maybe someday he and others like him will become true Americans and support all of the great things about this country and other countries of the world. People like him are examples of everything that is wrong in the world.
