Two-pronged final approach 10:25am on 02 Nov 2008 Bobsy26:

I must admit, I wasn't aware that Obama is so pro-israel, speaking from the country who's mismanagment and ignorance is basically responsible for starting the middle east conflict, I never quite understood why the US is so pro Israel, is it simply the number and influence of the US Jewish community?
Two-pronged final approach 3:14pm on 01 Nov 2008 DHIMMI:

Whilst I agree New Labour has made many mistakes, find me one government in history that hasn't? As much as I look at the negatives I also look at the positives, Minimum Wage, record investment in NHS, 11 years of growth (granted thats over now, and we can debate what degree Labours polcies have contributed and whether if they had done things differently we would still be in the same situation: virtually EVERY country on the planet is suffering, I can't believe that they all played the game same way as us which leads me to believe that whatever New Labour did, we would still be in this financial crisis now regardless)

I see Obama not neccessary for what he will do, but more about what he won't do (invade Iran, unconditional support for Israel, unilateral unqualified action across the planet,) If having an Obama / Democrat governement in the US just stops the above I will be happy.
42 and 44? 10:43pm on 30 Oct 2008 Nice Article, Obama has to be careful that he doesn't look like a man who knows he has it in the bag.. I guess it's a bit of a balancing act between looking like the president but knowing it.
