    Fore!

    Call me naive if you want, but I think this is the greatest thing I have seen in American politics in a long time.



    It sure would be great to see less of the hatred and vitriol we see in our politics these days, spurred less by the people's right to know what's going on and more by the media's need for sensationalism to sell copy.

    We are led to believe these guys hate each other, but I bet you for all of the posturing and grandstanding they do for the media, they have never had a harsh word to each other

    If you are the speaker, is it bad form to beat the president?
    You don't always need cards, just courage.

    I don't think Obama would let him lose, I think the President has seen enough of his crying.

    They all work for the same interests, has it occurred to you thats why the vitriol is all a show for the dumb dumb public? And you think this is healthy?

    You're right MF. Obama and Boehner played as a team against Biden and Kasich.

    Obama and Boehner won. No word if it was a match play or stroke play contest.

    Also no word if a deal was struck on raising the debt ceiling.

    Oh ...wow typical from you. Well I see people that can leave their political differences aside for a good time while discussing something important. People can still like each other even if they are on opposite sides. I think your hate for Obama is apparent. Just write "I hate Obama" 100 times and I hope it will make you feel better. But Billbob what good is your hate for him doing? It is just making you angry and narrower by the minute Try and see 1 thing good every1 has done. Try and make the best of an undesired situation...it helps

    I would not care who was President, if they were running the Nation like he is, I would say the same things !! Do not hate the man, hate the man as President !! what is the "good" thing he has done, other than raise the National debt, if you call that good. Maybe you like what he has done, and that is your right.I personally would vote for a pet monkey ( and that is not a raciest thing) before I voted for him, and thats my right.
