Gallup has released its list of "Most Admired Woman and Most Admired Man" living anywhere in the world, and for the 11th year in a row, Hillary Clinton tops the list of women, while Barack Obama is the most admired man for the fifth year in a row.
Kevin Lamarque / Reuters
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton delivers a speech "Frontlines and Frontiers: Making Human Rights a Human Reality" at Dublin City University in Ireland in this file photo from Dec. 6, 2012.
First Lady Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey and Condoleezza Rice are next behind Clinton.
Behind Obama are Nelson Mandela, Mitt Romney, Billy Graham, George W. Bush and Pope Benedict XVI.
The "Most Admired Man" poll began in 1946 and was expanded to include "Most Admired Woman" in 1948.
Clinton has topped the list 17 times in the last 20 years, starting in 1993. Eleanor Roosevelt comes in second as the most "Most Admired Woman," a designation she gained 13 times.
Dwight Eisenhower was the "Most Admired Man" 12 times, the most for any man, followed by Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, who each had eight first-place finishes.
The results are based on a Gallup poll taken from Dec 19 to 22nd.

Let us all wish Madame Secretary Clinton a full and speedy recovery!
Have a Happy & Healthy 2013!
Hillary Clinton will go down in History as one of the Best and Brightest Americans.
Please get well.
You Go Girl. See you in 2016 Democratic Primaries, See you in 2017 Inaugural as Madame President.
Yes,
A speedy recovery. We need her in 2016. We need someone with the guts to stick to what all of US believe.
It looks like Obama is doing his usual CAVE and the tax threshold is now heading to $500K.
He has ALL the cards, yet he's "negotiating" them away. We need someone more like Hillary,
President Obama, Yes, We admire...you.
.
Yes, we do...yes, we do.
.
yes, yes, yes, yes .........................
Get Well Soon, Hillary!!
With that said, How in Hell has President Obama & Senator Reid LOST the advantage in these Fiscal Curb talks? I expected The Turtle to outmanuever Reid, but President Obama also!!!!
Lets Hope Senator Bernie Sanders Filibusters it ALL. At this Point, he's the Only saving Grace for America.
You Betcha!
Occupy SoggyBottom!
New Year's Resolution: admire Pres. Obama even more.
I totally admire American voters who have elected Pres. Obama twice.
I totally admire the decency of the average American people - the silent majority - we have heard you loud and clear.
I would like to find out what the author of this report has been smoking and the number of his dealer. Must be some great stuff.
I bet that Bush nominated himself, and found a way to vote for himself enough times to make the list, just like he did in order to get into the Oval Office.
GWB was the most hated president in recent history and left office with something like a 12% approval rating, which is why I can't imagine how, or by whom, his name was introduced in the first place unless, of course, he did it himself.
New Year's Resolution for RepubliCONs: admire Barack and Hillary; then you GOP can be better too.
Better late than never.
Small Business - I don't think President Obama has caved - he is negotiating and it takes compromise. I wish he didn't have to but I do think SOME compromise is necessary.
Clearly the polls got it right - President Obama and Hillary Clinton - great choices! Not quite sure HOW Mitt Romney made the list???
Secretary Clinton, have a complete and speedy recoveery.
Small business. Have you ever made a deal with anyone. when negotiations are going on, You never start out where you want to end up. You start in the President's case low, $250K That was never where he wanted to end up. He would settle for $500K But if he started at $500K he would never get there. You never start out negotiations where you want to end up. Use your head fore something other than a hat rack. President Obama knows he can't have it all his way. And he has other things to deal with all the time. The Tax deal also has unemployment tied to it. There are 2 million people on Unemployment that will lose that Unemployment. So its not as simple as you think it. Our system is a give and take system, that is the way it was set up.
Hillary Clinton is very admired by me. That said, I do worry about her health. I did mention her age at a yoga class and was almost hung. Hope and pray she is here for the fight in 2016.
Seeking, we'll see. He caved on the upper end tax cut extension completely in 2010. He compromises when he doesn't need to. I agree compromise is needed, but within reason. He has every advantage right now. Why give up so much?
Do you think Republicans would give up anything if they didn't have to?
feisty , pigitry , sbo and all you fine folks out there, you all have a very Happy New Year and best wishes to all.
old man - I hope you have an OUTSTANDING New Year. And, I hope the same for all of you out there - Feisty, pigotry, Exito, SmBus, Chilled, American Girl, etc. - all of you. I hope 2013 is the best year yet for our country. And, since 13 is my lucky number, I'm counting on it!
SmBus - I understand but I also know, in some cities $250,000 doesn't go as far as in others. So, a tax floor of $500,000 is not a bad compromise.
I see none of the usual characters are spouting off about Hillary - since she clearly DID have a concussion that has now resulted in a blood clot. Funny how when they are shown to be wrong - they just don't show up!
Chuck, sometimes you don't have to give up anything. Have you ever bought a car? Not all negotiations are two-sided. Sometimes the price is the price.
Unemployment is a card Republicans have, but do you really think that's a strong one? Are they really going to get away with cutting off millions of people? They might, but it's only because they truly don't care about Americans at all. But that's not news. Unpatriotic Republican Swine. It will just help their departure in 2014. That's the only thing they don't want.
Thanks Old Man. Same to you and yours :- )
Back at ya' Seeking!
Get well soon Madame Secretary.
I disagree that an additional tax bracket above $500K is a loss. I consider it a gain, as it takes away the Conservative argument "but you'd raise taxes on people almost like you and I, except they make slightly more money."
Our current large and widening income disparity problem isn't caused by professionals married to other professionals. Yes, they're in the 2% but there's a certain validity to the argument that they have a good deal in common with the rest of us. The real problem is that slightly above that the incomes and net worth of those above (particularly when you get into the top fractions of 1%) run away from the rest of us like the Starship Enterprise engaging warp drive.
EVERY YEAR those at the very tip-top of the heap have been getting income increases of 15-25% while the rest of us have had income progress that hasn't even kept up with inflation over the long term.
Widening income disparities have barely even made the radar screen in terms of public discourse and that needs to change.
Same to you old man...
I always look forward to reading your comments! ☺
All right, maybe $500K isn't so bad. Someday, I hope to make just under that amount ;- )
Best wishes and Happy New Year to my FR friends :- )

We asked Republicans to compromise, and we need to do the same.
The only way Bill and Hillary were able to do so much when they held the White House was by "compromising" with Republicans, and meeting each other half way.
The biggest problem that I've seen with President Obama is that he wants to compromise. But it's compromise with a party that does not know the meaning of the word.
AG, John,
This is the difference between Democrats and Republicans, and the reason we are where we are after 30 years of getting rolled by Republicans. WE compromise. THEY don't.
I'm not saying digging in is any kind of solution, but giving when we aren't required to isn't something Republicans ever do. Why should we?
Who did they poll? Liberals? No wonder these people are considered the most admired. This poll is the most skewed poll I have every seen.
Just more liberal propaganda while the Obama administration tries to take away your attention from the fiscal cliff.
President Obama hasn't "caved"; there are other issues in this so-called fiscal cliff that are as important, if not more important than whether it is $250K or $500K. Extending unemployment benefits, a fiscal cliff deal, not forcing draconian spending cuts during an economic recovery which would be devastating to the economy are critical aspects. According to polls, the American people want both sides to compromise.
Quit your hatin' Unhappy, and maybe you'll be less unhappy.
The poll has picked Eisenhower, Reagan and W Bush. It's not a "liberal" poll.
Get out of the bubble and look around. The sun may be shining where you are, even if Obama got picked this year.
old man, Happy New Year to you, too!
I may be wrong Jody. I know you know there is a history of Democrats compromising away their principles to get to a solution. Obama has done it himself. I just think you should only give what you have to. Republicans NEVER give more than they HAVE to. Why should we?
Unhappy: "Who did they poll? Liberals?"
Hate to make you even more unhappy, but it's even worse than you think - they say that "Behind Obama are Nelson Mandela, Mitt Romney, Billy Graham, George W. Bush and Pope Benedict XVI.", but what they don't mention is that if you go to the poll itself, President Obama got 30% of the vote and none of the others mentioned got more than 3%.
But if it'll make you any happier, they also indicate that "Obama's position as the Most Admired Man is not unusual. Sitting presidents, with their extremely high visibility and essentially continuous presence in ongoing news coverage, have won the Most Admired Man honor 56 times out of the 66 years in which Gallup has asked the question -- including each of the past 32 years in a row".
So cheer up - that means the President - whether Democrat or Republican - has won every year since Jimmy Carter in 1980.
And hey, at least we didn't pick Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber..... :)

If you had someone in mind that might have been overlooked, why not name the person?
At least you would have made better sense than just blaming Democrats all the time!
Instead, Republicans do the same wrong things over and over again -- make complaints without naming their idea of a solution. At least if you had provided a name of someone that would have been "food for thought" instead of the same old useless Republican rant.
Why is it so darn difficult for Republicans to communicate, instead of just name-calling all the time?
SmBusiness, I just disagree. Also get a tired of democrats whining "we caved" everytime we don't get everything we want or we disagree with some aspect of negotiations--makes us sound like Boehner's whining crowd. We don't even know exactly WHAT was given in return or even if any deal has been reached; all we know is speculation. We've heard the "close to agreement" song many times and each time, the repubs walk away--I don't expect repubs to agree to anything today. It looks far better for democrats and President Obama to have compromised from $250K to $400K or $500K when the republicans walk away than the reverse. I'd like to think they won't but they've had far better deals offered by President Obama and democrats in the past, including before Christmas; in fact, that's how we ended up with a fiscal cliff in the first place--the GOPers walked away from the "big deal" over raising taxes on the 2%.
SmallBusinessOwner, by the way, I don't disagree with everything you said; I just think we're all getting ahead of ourselves without all the details. I almost always agree with you and enjoy your posts. Happy New Year to you!
Jody,
I don't think we know if there has been a "cave" or not, so I don't think it's time to decide if we disagree.
I'm just going on what I perceive to be history. Democrats give more then they get. Maybe that's just my perception because I'm a Democrat.
Perhaps Republicans feel the same way, but the facts are that the rich, represented by Republicans, have done quite well over the last 30-40 years, while everybody else, represented by the Democrats, haven't. Those are the facts.
If Republicans walk away now, it would only be because they believe they will get something better if they wait. History also shows that the do win this way. No taxes were raised at the end of 2010, or in the summer of 2011 coming up to those two precipices. They got their way. When it looked like they were going to give more than wanted, they punted.
Because Obama actually cares about Americans, the Unemployment card is a very valuable one. My thought is he will give a LOT, more that it's worth to avoid that. Everyone will come together and take credit for avoiding the cliff, even though only one side really tried, and only one side gave anything.
SBONY, we are in full agreement on at least one very important point. Democrats have a history of caving that goes all the way back to the heyday of the Democratic Leadership Council...if not farther. The problem with "triangulation" is that once the strategy is known it's easy to start from a REALLY extreme position in confidence that the final outcome will be just about what you wanted in the first place.
I admire the political skill of Bill Clinton but I believe that during that era Democrats gave up entirely too much ground and established a precedent that's helped lead us to the ridiculous GOP that we have today. That's not to say Democrats "created" the present Conservative Movement, but I do mean to say that chasing your opponent at top speed to the right doesn't lead you to the center.
TO: Unhappy-1583758 who wrote:
I don't think so. I asked a couple of times who Republicans would name, but I got no response.
Obviously, Republicans just don't have anyone in their Party they can name, so, whose fault is that?
GTR,
the dealer was Gallup.
Well, they don't say where they take the poll. So, I can believe this is true since most of the world hates America (it's jealousy), then the rest of the world admires Obama for destroying America, something which the rest of the thugs of the world have been unable to do.
Lord have mercy, this has got to be killing a select group of Americans, THREE BLACK WOMEN, all behind the MOST ADMIRED, Hillary Clinton!!!!!
What a moment in history!!!!!!!
Hillary Clinton....2016!!!!
On the other side:
Romney, Graham, and Bush is such a cruel JOKE!!!!
Romney, corporate raider of American companies sent overseas to save money and give bigger pay raises to CEO's.
Graham, what a hypocrite!!
W. Bush, actually the one that has America in the toilet right now!
Happy New Year Madam Secretary! I'm praying for a speedy recovery so you can relax for two years and then RUN RUN RUN for President 2016. I'll work my a$$ off for you.
Begging the question. You might try again with an argument that's actually supported by facts.
John: What part of my statement isn't fact? Most countries of the world are run by thugs and they hate the US. That hasn't changed since Obama took over, as he pledged it would. The economy is still in the tank. Remember that "stimulus" package that was needed to keep unemployment from going above 8% (Obama's words, not mine)? We never saw unemployment under 8% during Obama's first term. Well, the very last month they claimed it went below 8%, but they had to stretch that by claiming all of a sudden a ton of people were no longer looking for just, and thus weren't counted as unemployed. Annual income for families has been dropping. Mainly because the new jobs are that Obama claims to have created are the dreaded hamburger flipper jobs that the libs so lambasted when a repub was in the WH.

Keep up the great work for submitting in your thoughtful and factual commentaries on the NEWSVINE and FirstRead! Looking forward to reading all of your future entries!
-- R. Oliver Radiko
Same to YOU, Oliver!
Seeing you on the board always brings a smile...
Bill Clinton? what a joke,
1. He Was Impeached.
2. Lied to a Grand Jury.
3. Missed Bin Laden 3 (5) times.
Hillary "Mrs.Impeached" Clinton has a lot of explaining to do about Benghazi so do not be so quick to nominate her.
I bet you that the family of the Border Patrol Agent who was murdered during the Obama* Holder, "Fast and Furious" conspiracy has another point of view, and the family members of the public employees and the ambassador Killed at Benghazi would also have a very different point of view.
Polls are just ways to try and tell the people what to think. And A Lot Of Liberals Fall For It.
perhaps the people who were polled just came across the border at a slow walk and were polled as they carried a 75 pound pack filled with Heroin , Cocaine or 100 pound bale of low grade pot.
so many paid posters on here. feisty redhead,americangirl ect. I hope that you like your tax increases.
OMG, who takes part in these polls? Mostly crack addicts?
Obama, Hillary and Bill "The Pig" Clinton. And Reagan and Bush?!? They should rename the poll. "Who's destroyed the country, more".
or "Worlds greatest con men (and women)" maybe. Or "worlds most cold blooded sociopaths".
"People you'd hate the most if they lived next door", how about.
And next to Nelson Mandela? Wow, "surrealistic" is the word for it.
This is what happens when the advertising industry and PR departments are allowed to pour their vile, poisonous, hallucination inducing brew down people's ears and especially, eyes, all their life from the time they are able to crawl in front of the TV set.
No wonder the country is so F'd up.
It is with a happy heart that we go into this New Year with the Knowledge that President Obama has won yet another victory over the oppressive GOP House. We the people deserve a better and brighter future that only a Democratic run Government can bring about. Hillary Clinton will shine in 2016 as the next Greatest President in my time. I have been privileged to have witnessed 2 really spectacular Leaders so far, President Clinton and President Obama. I only hope I can see the 3rd of such great leaders in 2016, President Hillary Clinton. And may God have mercy on the Republican GOP and Tea Party obstructionist.
Fiesty
Didn't know you had it in you. Would you also have such kind words if it were John Boehner in a situation like this? Didn't think so.
"Just more liberal propaganda while the Obama administration tries to take away your attention from the fiscal cliff."
witchrunner;
1) You haven't proven that "most of the world hates America", in fact polling shows that the standing of the US has improved in the eyes of most of the world since the election of President Obama.
2) The economy is still soft, but it has improved IMMENSELY since the dark days of the Great Republican Recession.
3) Your conclusion that "most or the world admires Obama for destroying America" cannot be supported as there are no facts in evidence. (one of several instances in your statement of begging the question)
4) Since you yourself state that unemployment was NEVER below 8% it is obvious there was never a promise within the legislation as passed that unemployment wouldn't rise above 8%.
5) Unemployment has been counted in the same way for many years...if you think the books were cooked at the end of 2011 then they've been cooked in the same way for decades and the numbers are consistent, therefore still meaningful.
5a) Cooking the books would be a massive conspiracy requiring THOUSANDS of government employees and private employers to collude. It isn't plausible.
6) Annual income for families has been falling for YEARS, thus proving the failure of the Conservative economic experiment rather than any policy of President Obama.
7) In the dark days of the Bush Administration Conservatives told us manufacturing was dead, the USA was now a service economy, and we'd better learn to subsist on burger flipping wages.
7a) Manufacturing has been one of the leaders in the most recent recovery.
I can't help that you choose to argue with no facts in evidence. As long as you choose to do so this will be the result.
Besides being the worst President Ever how can G. Dam bush be classified as anything other than the most disgusting human being now alive!
The "Gallup" pole should have kept right on galluping. What a crock.
Obama liscense.
You are a broken record! what about the employers that knowingly hide the fact that they are hiring these workers at far lower wages that they pay legal workers to add to their profits and Greed! Why do you keep ignoring the greed of business, corporations and the rich????????
Ironically the same poll showed that many people think the Earth is flat and communism brings communities together. And the same poll showed that Bill Clinton's 8 mistresses rated higher than he did among women who live in trailer parks!
Hillary should realize that the best cure for the benghazi flu is merely to answer a few questions! BTW, she too had a high approval rating for Bill's mistresses... they kept him from bothering her, lol!
@gtr5
I guess this explains why President Obama and Ms. Clinton are successful and are winners and you're well...NOT!
You might be a whiner but that's about it.
@Zed
And yet the majority of Americans do trust and admire PRESIDENT OBAMA. The fact that some loser doesn't like it is of zero consequence to us.
Every time some loser calls the President Barry they lose more credibility and show themselves to be rather ignorant. So, go wallow in your hatred and bile. You baggers stopped counting awhile ago.
The most hilarious part is, the right wing clowns above who are ridiculing the "Gallup" poll, are the very same ones who were singing Gallup's praises when it showed Willard had the "lead"...
*grasp meet straw*
Your desperation is showing... again! lmao
Thanks for starting off my year with a good laugh at ya'll!
Where was your outrage when 10 were killed in 2002 at the US Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan?
How about in 2004 when 2 were killed, 9 injured in an attack on the US Embassy in Uzbekistan?
Were you looking for answers later in 2004 when 8 lost their lives at the US Consulate in Saudi Arabia?
What about in 2006 when the US Embassy in Syria was attacked with the loss of an American live?
Do you know if anyone was brought to justice for throwing a grenade into the US Embassy in Serbia?
Ten lost their lives when the US Embassy in Yemen was bombed in 2008, but I don't recall any calls for a Joint Congressional Committee to investigate.
So save us your phony outrage. State Department posts in unstable countries are dangerous duty and always have been. It isn't all cocktail parties and schmoozing the Emir, you know.
Happy New Year Feisty!
Happy New Year to you JohnB!
It's so good to see you spending more time on the board, with your special blend of rational wisdom!
The poll is a great example of how far our great country has fallen! That a inept and dishonest president who is spending the USA into bankruptcy and a womanizing boozer have been selected as most admired is shameful! I'm sure a few porn stars made that list too (Rachel Maddow maybe?)!
I wonder which enemy of obama will be appointed Ambassador to Libya? I'm sure Hillary would like to see Bill get that job, eh?
True story - I had two parakeets named Barack and Hillary. My parakeets were named after two real live bird birds.
America has spoken. How refreshing. Obama and Hilary deserve the votes and the Republicans deserve exactly what they got.
The answer is in the article. Ask an adult to read it and explain it to you.
Correct, he certainly was. So was Ayatollah Khomeini (1979).
From your tone, it's apparent you're unaware of Time's criteria for their 'Man of The Year'.
Their criteria is "the individual or group of individuals who have had the biggest effect on the year's news", according to their web site. The biggest effect....not necessarily the most positive effect.
After all, the drunken little bush won once, too.
Poll: Obama, Clinton most admired again - by progressives, liberals, communists and socialists.
OO-BAMA LicenseToBore
Hitler was once TIME MAGAZINE's Man of the Year!
He is again only now it is Obozo.
Killed four people in Benghazi & still most admired......
What does this crew have to do for the left to finally WAKE UP?
I think it is a safe bet that the pollsters have a pretty good idea of the affiliation of the people that are being polled in advance. Count all the Obama and Clinton supporters and circular file the non Obama/GOP responses supporters! There are no such things as non biased polls in this country any more when Obama and his minions control the majority of media outlets! I knew there was a reason I vote strictly Independent nowadays.
What did obama do the last 4 years that could be admired by even the most discriminating American!?? Most Americans who work and pay taxes think he's a failure and has a socialistic agenda for our once great country!
Name one real contribution the neighborhood organizer did to help reduce the deficit, cut spending, negotiate a budget, propose a budget (that got more than zero votes that is... lol)!
I can see MAYBE Hillary, but Obama? Not in a million years. They probably only polled Obama supporters.
florida: Of course they did. Same thing with the voters in the past election. We were all gassed, tead, fooled, propagandized and gifted. And none of us realized it - classic mass hysteria. Cool Aid, anyone?
Vern: Neanderthals got their vote too.
With Hill of Beans obvious health issues, she is not suitable to be POTUS. We can't have a president who may blackout during a critical situation. I'm not joking either. Say nothing of her throwing our ambassador to the wolves in Benghazi.
I'm pretty much a social liberal but I almost want to vomit at the comments read within.
You people worship politicians like Christians and Muslims worship their gods... THEY (Obama and Clinton) ARE POLITICIANS!!!! They make a living LYING to all of you and YOU ADMIRE THEM FOR IT???
Good-golly-miss-Molly, you're ALL NUTS!!!! Furthermore, you deserve what is happening to this nation!
Whether you are a Republiturd or Demorat, BOTH PARTIES HAVE SENT THIS ECONOMY INTO THE TOILET!!!
It is not a surprise that Clinton, and Obama are the most admired, they work for the people. The republicans work for the rich and the corporations, who don't even admire them for it.
Happy New Year Feisty, and all the liberal voices out there. I would wish the same for conservatives but it would not be returned. Lets all join Feisty in hoping for a speedy recovery for our next president.
We are ready for Obama's 2nd inaugual.
We are a Chololate Nation.
I am a chocoholic pig.
Michelle Obama is one of the most naturally gracious public figures on the national stage. I also admire her physical fitness and healthy diet! She's an inspiration to me.
Amy - I totally agree. Michelle Obama exemplifies class, elegance, integrity and everything we want in a First Lady. She is such a great role model for young women - and the rest of us too!
SeekingSanity: She is a role model for all!
amy...you are either kidding or you are blind. I would like to know what she eats when she is not in front of the camera. She is more of a lobster roll than a role model.
John,
Happy New Year to you too! ☺
I ♥ the sound of that!
Johntho, listening to you and the others I can only think how completely and utterly polarized you are about conservatives and liberals that you fail to understand the huge gradients that exist in-between. It would therefore surprise you to know that many conservatives and liberals (not politicians) have the same ideas in common but are bombarded by the media to keep us fighting. By far the biggest difference is that Republican law makers are indeed fighting to help small business while the last 4 years has seen a historic rise in roadblocks that impede small business. From Dodd/Frank to Obamacare to thousands of regulations that have completely tied the hands of the private sector and prevented the recovery that we all need. Frankly, a strong economy is the only priority for this country.
I am sure you are surprised to hear that I am a huge fan of Hillary. She screwed the pooch with Bengazi but would have made a far better president than Obama. Yeah, she is a lefty but she would have done the things necessary to get our economy going, and that would have been good enough for most conservatives. You need to know that indeed conservatives are quite fearful, but not because of gay marriage or other social issues but because Obama is a terrible president who, in the end will cause continued and relentless hardships for the poor and middle class in his pursuit of policies that only satisfy the fringes.
I'm just baffled at who else made the list... Wow! Sarah, Johnny, and Mitty?!?
Baaaaaaaarffff!
SmBizGirl, seriously, and you know that Hillary would have made a better president than Obama exactlly how? Republicans did their best to destroy both Bill and Hillary in the 1990's; during the 2007 primary, the GOPers were skewering Hillary Clinton when they thought she would be the nominee so it isn't likely she would have been treated any better or any differently had she won than Pres Obama was treated; the GOPers would have blocked, obstructed, denied her presidency as well. In my opinion, the only reason you are a Hillary "fan" is because she isn't our President right now.
CT - you are so clearly jealous of Michelle Obama it is sad. Your lack of integrity when talking about her says everything about you - nothing about her. She is elegant, classy, sophisticated, stylish, intelligent, successful and a GREAT role model for any and every woman! Too bad you are so hate-filled and have absolutely NO TASTE whatsoever!
This is the funniest article yet -- way to go lame stream media. I admire NEITHER of them but I know they admire themselves -- very much!
50.9% admire, 49.1% hold their noses.
Barrack Hussein Obama*, Hillary "Mrs.Impeached"Clinton, sure did a lot of work for the people at the Benghazi consulate. and Obama* and Eric Holder did a lot of work to get guns to drug cartels.
You liberals should be proud of their failures.
Obama* Lied and People Died.
Benghazi happened for a lot of reasons, some failure by the Administration and the Congress but mainly because terrorist are always trying to kill and have been thwarted countless times in the past 10 years, but once in a while they get very lucky and manage to carryout their rein of destruction and death. By many people America is considered to be terrorist when their innocent children and citizen are killed with our bombs and guns as we seek to enforce our will overseas. Unfortunately when you choose to live by the gun you may find you die by the gun. Violence breeds violence and make no mistake we are a particularly violent nation. Take a look at what Romney said he would do, cut all aid to Egypt, send armed troops into Benghazi and not give their own government a chance to bring things under control. Had he been in charge we would have had a terrible disaster on our hands and very likely a new war in the Middle East. Glad that Obama was my President and kept his head even with all the screaming and yelling of the totally politically oriented and totally wrong radical right.
"Barrack Hussein Obama*, Hillary "Mrs.Impeached"Clinton, sure did a lot of work for the people at the Benghazi consulate."
President Obama and Hillary Clinton have dome more for this nation in one day of their lives than you teatard ditto-heads will do in your entire lives.
charlie, fixed it for you..
President Obama and Hillary Clinton have done

Thank you!! Never proofread your own stuff.
The last time America had a lady with as much class and elegance as Michelle her last name was Kennedy.
Benghazi had 4 Americans die... That's it 4! Sad, yes... but it's only 4 compared to the multitudes that die on a daily basis due to violence both overseas and in our homeland.
Multiple people died in multiple embassy/consulate attacks during the GW Bush Administration as well. Unfortunately embassy duty in unstable regions of the world is dangerous work. It's also important work, though, and we're fortunate there are people who care enough about our nation to volunteer for these posts.
President Obama, Happy New Year!!!!!!!
Oh how the people's choice must boil the blood of the Republicans. But that's what happens when you side with the people rather than the special interest elite.
Side with the people? OK.
This article is just more political propaganda.
They hope you won't notice when they raise your taxes next year.
Blood boil? Of course not, it just goes to show the obvious liberal slant the media has towards Democrats. Just like on this board....it's definitely skewed to the left.

Conservatives clearly haven't learned a thing. Remember when they were all whining about how the polls were biased...in October?
How'd that turn out?
Special interest and elite???? Really???? Believe that was Mr. O with Beyonce and JZ -- palling around with Hollywood, hedgefund mgrs, and unions. You really are a hypocrite or just extremely uninformed, but of course if all you do is suck up what MSNBC feeds you you will always be a lapdog -- just what the dems want you to be. It works both ways you just can't or won't admit it.
Perhaps "dotties girl" will resolve to develop the emotional maturity of a 5 year old.
It will take a lot of hard work and self realization, but I think she can do it. Let's all give her our support and a lollipop.
Yes,Small Biz Girl he said "side with the people". Thats what Democrats do as opposed to the GOP who side with the 2% and corporations. Any other questions?
'How'd that turn out?'
Republicans hate reality. The right wing entertainment industry (Fox, Rush the junkie, Beck) tells them what they wish was true and they swallow it hook, line and sinker.
I'm not surprised in the least by the survey what will surprise me is if there aren't any derogatory comments about the President, Hillary or the "lame stream liberal media" in 5, 4, 3, 2.....
Because this article just came out 1 hour ago. Even I was surprised to see it.

ahhhhh can't stand the fact that some of us aren't lapdogs for the left? Keep feeding at the taxpayer trough, that's all you lapdogs are good at. No responsibility or accountability.
So..."lapgog" is the nazi word for the day...Yawn... Who is responsible for your teabagging reps not showing up for work until yesterday? That would be the responsibility of your favorite drunk, Mr. Boehner. How are you going to hold him accountable, "dotties girl"? How have you held your party accountable for the two unfunded wars and Medicare Plan D?
Where is Kim Jong Il?
Why is Obama even on that list? What could he possibly be doing that would warrant admiration from any sane person. I get the fact that many liberals like the idea of a liberal president but he only has his friends and bundlers best interests in mind. If he truly cared about this country, the middle class and the poor we would have a thriving economy and 5% unemployment. That's the first step and one that is 4 years overdue.
SmallBizGirl - ooooooh still can't get over the fact that the moron you ran lost, huh? President Obama is on the list for all the obvious reasons: he kept us from a depressiona; he got the economy moving forward even though he was blocked at every effort by the Republicans; he is the most admired man in the world.
Must really suck to be part of the do-nothing try to wreck everything Republican party!
not that smallbiz need me to defend her, but why is it that anyone that disagrees with you and your love fest with the entitlement society that you desire so much, others can't express their opinion? This is the problem with you idiots. In America, we have freedoms that you want to see gone. You are so caught up in the corruption and promises of free stuff you don't even want this great country to prosper. Get back to your free flat screen and eat your government cheese doodles you freak!
Seeking - Sadly, you have no clue. We are at 8% unemployment and all economic indicators are pointing bad. Your victory dance only saddens me as you have closed your eyes to reality and simply like the man in the nice suite.
CT your free to express your opinions. Why would you claim your not? You do everyday on this blog and maybe others. Free speech, the most important of all human rights. Quit complaining.
Smallbiz - that would be 7.7% and dropping like a rock. Boo Yah.
SmallbizGirl - So the surplus that the party of "No ideas" inherited and squandered, driving the world into the worst recession since the great depression, and 4 years, blocking American progress, your progress, is not taken into account.
If this president was a Republican you would want his sculpture on Mount Rushmore. Imagine......President Barack Hussein Obama. You know I like it! It has a nice American ring to it.
LaserFox: Who's spending the money now? After 4 years, we still see no improvement. The recovery as of now is propagated by debt that is passed on to our children. Where is Obama's progress?
In four years he has accomplished nothing except to raise taxes on people to accomplish what he thinks will be of importance. Once he leaves office, he won't care if he made the country go off a fiscal cliff. But it is democrats like you who will still blame republicans for obstructing "progress".
What taxes has the President raised on people, unhappy? Maybe you ought to change your name to uninformed. He hasn't raised any taxes - yet. Please take a course in comprehension.
SmallBiz and CT - you two have no concept of reality and it shows. Your hatred of everything left of over the cliff rightwing is so sad and reflects on just who you are.
The silly comment about flatscreen TV and government cheese show how desperate you two are. I've been fortunate enough to never need government help although I don't begrudge anyone who is having a difficult time from getting help.
You two are truly sad desperate people. I hope you find a way to get better. Must be difficult to wake up each day and be you!

I very much admire President Obama and both Bill and Hillary Clinton because, for one thing, they have done more for the elderly, middle class, and the poor than anyone I can think of.
It's Republicans who are doing everything in their power to stall our Economic Recovery because Democrats have been so good for this country AND the American People that there's no doubt Democrats are more likely to win elections than Republicans.
When are Republicans going to start moving this country ahead, instead of backwards? And why aren't Republicans able to put the American People and our country first, instead of only concentrating on the rich and their interests overseas?
The hateful teabaggers still can't get over the fact that McCain/Palin lost!!! We're supposed to believe that they are "fiscal conservatives" when they sat around during the BushII years with their thumbs up their butts, eyes crossed and drooling over themselves to Fox "news" calling everyone
They didn't stand up for their country until their nazi leadership told them to and everyone knows it.
Undoubtly you are part of the 47% Romney doesn't care about, BUT, you voted for him anyway. LOL!!!
Your last sentence, I love when people like you lose, such a sore loser, I'd bet your BP is through the roof.....LOL
Woops - second paragraph should have read..."calling everyone that disagreed with Dick Cheney a traitor."
Trying to do too many things at once...
The Russians admire Obama* for the Flexibility that he now has to further sell out america.
The chinese admire Obama* because he sent Biden over there to promise them more jobs.
The Taliban admire Obama* because he gave Iraq back to the Taliban.
Alqueida admire Obama* because he is giving afghanistan back to them.

it is in your state also.
As oppposed to what Small Biz Girl. The reason your economy is in a slump and unemployment is so high is the result of 8 years of your boy George W. Bush's failed policies. He was even worse for our economy than his daddy.
"but why is it that anyone that disagrees with you and your love fest with the entitlement society"
Hey CT -- I'm 66 years old. I started working when I was 12. I worked 30 hours a week when I was in high school. I put myself through college, started, ran and sold several businesses. I've been in the private sector my entire life. Try to understand this ditto-head -- it IS NOT a " love fest with the entitlement society" -- it's a disgust with people like Romney, George W. Bush, and the Koch brothers who were born with a silver spoon in their yaps and now believe they are somehow morally superior to anyone who isn't a member of the lucky sperm club.
Hey Charlie ! I see something in the corner of your mouth! mabe some of that lucy stuff! just saying!!!!
Hey Tom --- typical moronic response for a ditto-head. I know 9 year old kids who could make up a better slam. Keep you day job (if you have one. You won't make it as a comedian.
Cheers to President Obama and Hillary Clinton; the world's most admired. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Secretary of State Clinton.
Mitt Romney, George W. Bush? Seriously? A bald-faced liar and an incompetent who was appointed President in 2000? I'm curious, how many times was George W. Bush the most admired? I'm thinking maybe 2001, 2002 and that was it for Bush 43. Definitely, "Dubya" nominated himself and Ann and Tagg nominated Mitt because, after all, Mitt really didn't want to be president!
Happy New Year, Jody!!
Prior to the campaign when I think we saw the true Mitt Romney I might have said I admired him. He did seem ambitious but he also seemed to be motivated by public service and true to his religion. He surely did not wear well under the glare of the national spotlight, though, did he? I wonder if Mitt really wants to be admired or if that is for Ann? Notice she isn't on the list anywhere!
This is hilarious reading this love fest between the piggy and the red head fister!! I do not want anyone to suffer, but it is a very strong possibility that Hillery is still ill from the Benghazi Flu. It is conceivable that it could last until the 2916 primaries. Let's face it...she is just as phony and dishonest as the rest of the liberal leadership, and the morons that post on this site are nothing more than lemmings following their leader to the free stuff lines. You are certainly entitled to your opinions, but that is where the entitlements should end!
PS...did the piggy just call this a chocolate country? Wow, that pig is more fluked up than I give here credit for. What a disgusting racist!!
CT-delusional as ever I see, and just as jealous. Let's see, a blood clot is something - in your small mind - you just make up? The morons on this site are you and SmallBizGirl - just can't hide your jealousy for those who are heads above you in leadership and integrity! So sad to have such small minds as you clearly do!
seeking free stuff...delusional? You do not think that Hillary is above having a subordinate say what ever she wants them to say? Is it a coincidence that every time she was scheduled to testify she was unable to? Just like the administration. They have the entire media in their pocket saying whatever takes to stay in power. This is the definition of corruption, you jerk. I am not sure where jealousy comes into the picture. I work for a living, own a nice house, and enjoy a comfortable way of life. I have earned and paid for everything that I have. My wife works and I am teaching my son the importance of self reliance. I do not need to brag about myself, but If more people worked for a living, this socialistic agenda would not even have a chance. So seeking, get a fluking life, you idiot!!
But you just couldn't resist! lol
Please spare us from your self-importance in the future!
We don't give a rats ass about your fantasies.
For your wife's sake, I hope Santa gave you some anger management classes for Christmas!
BTW: You might want to lay off of NewsforDumbFux for awhile, you write like a "classic" viewer! ;o)
PS: What is a "fluking"? I can't find it in the dictionary...
Feisty - I think CT is beyond help. His hatred has taken over and he just can't help himself.
I hope you and your family have a GREAT New Year! 2013 is going to be an outstanding year!
Same to you Seeking & I PROMISE we are going to have that drink together early in 2013! ☺
Hey fisty...having a job and being self supporting is not bragging and should not be considered a "fantasy". It is a way of life in America. I guess in your circles work is a bad word.
"Fluking" is an admittedly bad play on words paying homage to the phony that you and your band of narrow minded ill informed lemmings look up to. You know, the one that cannot pay for her rubbers to get laid.
I do agree on one thing...2013 will be better than 2012. At least it will get us closer to seeing the liberals out of office.
You and your merry band of idiots really should relax and perhaps look beyond NBC and the other hideous mainstream media that you parrot. Even consider watching Fox a little. You might even learn something...although I doubt it.
Give my best to seeking...maybe someday she will find something truthful!
Man, what's up with this CT dude?
That's the kind of dudes that drop dead from heart attacks......Chill out bro, quit being such an arrogant, sore loser!
Moshulu,my guess is that "CT" is short for "ClusterFux Troll".
That or he was being even more self-descriptive but knew that he could never get the U and N in the middle past the censors and just went with CT.
The more people like "dotties girl" and "ct" post, the more normal Americans with some sense of morality see what hateful liars the teabaggers really are.
Keep posting, little teabaggers! It provides us with the daily nazi talking points without having to to listen to your sacred drug addict, hours of entertainment and then leads to your political demise. What could be better than that?
CT-- I know this is very hard to believe, but, I think Piggy et alia honestly feel this way. Yes, it's a very romanticized perception. I think for many women Hillary symbolizes something well beyond Hillary herself.
One thing I have noticed is the degree to which so many posting here impugn the intelligence of other posters. The other thing is that these people really have a lot of hatred and anger that they want to lay on someone.
Strange thing. As I recall, both Obama and Hillary at various times have made appeals for Americans to come together. Yet when I read the vitriol on these comments, I can only assume they think those comments were addressed somehow to "other" Americans -- not to themselves.
On the other hand, could you all keep it clean?
Happy New Year. I hope it is a better one for us all.
kenny: Have you ever listened to anyone resembling yourself? Sad....even pathetic. There are subjects in this world other than genetalia........really. When you mature, maybe. Brilliant post - in a bus station restroom.
The top 5 of the 6 are African Americans. Things are looking up America. This takes place at the 150 anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation.
Thank you President Lincoln. It took great courage to do the right thing. You worked for the greater good of all Americans, black red and white, not the party. You would be shocked to see what has become of your party.
Yup, not surprised in the least.
The other vine announcing Hilliary's blood clot was full of nay-sayers and haters. Made me want to quit reading these sites. So full of hatred.
SuzQ,
It is all they have left!
Sad...
Happy 2013 to you & yours!
Thanks FR -
Happy 2013 to you as well.
PS I always enjoy your postings.
Same with you SuzQ! You sure know how to set the right wingers follicles on fire! ☺
Having W in the mix just doesn't square. To many casualties from lost wars and the economic collapse of 2008 are the reasons he hides, painting pictures of dogs. He wasn't allowed at the repub convention so even conservatives know he is a fool. To have his name in the mix makes the results very questionable.
and drinking again. That's why he doesn't go out in public!
W had a great economy, 5% unemployment and passed pretty much everything he wanted. Compared to Obama he was a huge success.
Is that why his Treasury Secretary, Hank Paulson, told him in September 2008 that the entire world's banking system is going to collapse unless he (Bush) passes TARP? Yea, one great economy alright?
"Having W in the mix just doesn't square"
Again, go to the link and look at the actual results. President Obama got 30% of the votes, while Bush 43 got all of 2% and Bush 41 a whopping 1 %. And they indicate it was an open-ended question, so their names were only "in the mix" because a handful of respondents volunteered them.
Sorry, no conspiracy here, just a semi-interesting but ultimately meaningless survey.
Ho hum.
SmallBiz - you truly DON'T have a clue! Bush spent as quickly as he could - to hell with any budget - remember he started with a surplus! And, yes, he got bills passed because Congress didn't vow to block everything he proposed - unlike the treasonous Republicans today. Plus, Bush put 2 wars on credit cards - didn't include them in his budget.
You don't know anything and it shows!
I think "smallbiz" knows exactly what the truth is and, for what ever demented reason, thinks that being a deceitful liar will make his/her side look better.
Thank God that the majority of Americans see them for the disgusting people that they are.
Time's criteria is the person (or group) who have the biggest effect on the world during that year. Note that it's not necessarily the most positive effect.
Consider that Adolph Hitler and the Ayatollah Khomeini have both been the Man of The Year.
Thank God for President Obama and Secretary Clinton.
I believe that's thanks Allah.................
Yes him too! I am thankful for our great president and the defeat of the capitalist pigs.
That's nice!! You would prefer Communism?
duh
They should also have a poll of most despised woman and man. That could be interesting. How many of you Tea Party retards would nominate Obama over the likes of Hitler or bin Laden?
I guess Barack gets to be Prom King and Hillary gets to be Prom Queen.
Michelle and Bill might get a little upset when King and Queen dance in the spotlight to strains of "Faithfully" by Journey.
This popularity contest is so much high school sugar-coated hooey. That's right, I said hooey.
I mean, Richard Nixon won 4 times himself, so that pretty much sums up the importance of this poll.
Liberals can never be accused of being very intelligent or have a memory longer than 30 seconds.
therockofages - and yet liberals rank heads above conservatives every day. See we were smart enough to re-elect an excellent President instead of a flip-flopping idiot who couldn't keep his own campaign on the same track from one day to the next. Again, must REALLY suck to be you!
I am sure it does not "suck" to be Mitt. I think he would be happy to compare checking accounts with you to see whose life sucks.
Celtic - my life is great and I wouldn't change any of it to be like Mitt. It would suck to be such a classless, moronic loser like him!
Morons do not go to Harvard and obtain an MBA and a law degree. Losers do not have 250 million in the bank. Class? and you have it? please. Have you meet Mitt? do you know one person that does know him personally? yet you can judge him based on your dogmatic ideology
Celtic - we saw Mitt's "class" every day he campaigned. He showed he has NONE. All the money in the world can't buy you class and he and Ann showed it. I don't have $250 million in the bank but am VERY happy with what I have. I am successful and don't need Mitt's millions to prove anything to myself or anyone else.
Give me an example of his lack of class?. The fact is SS, you are biased against Mitt or any Republican.You offer no facts, just your anti-white anti-Rich, anti-Conservative OPINION, which I would defend your right to offer. In this case you are simply wrong. Furthermore to bring up his wife is classless on your part, but what do we expect from Democrats. I have a personal friend who worked with Hilliary during the 90'S the inside stories of her "class" would make your hair stand on end I suppose that is not fair either.
I can give you dozens, but we will start with him insulting a famous bakeries "cookies" in someones backyard!
WTF says to your host that these cookies don't look homemade and they came from a 7-11?
Yeah!
Real class act you righties are! lol
Red your class shows through with your "WTF comment" - nice. Who said I was a rightie? I have read your comments in the past and you rate very high on the vomit scale of obnoxious bloggers . Now if you want to discuss politics, religion, or other topics in an adult fashion, let's have an discussion
This is what you classify as "adult fashion"?
Nah!
Get back to me when you earn a seat at the adult "table"...
Until then, I noticed you couldn't dispute my point about Mitt and immediately had to pivot to a personal attack!
Oh, so, predictable! lol
Dispute some stupid story about cookies? that proves class? my God. I am not personal, I am sure your a decent person, your posts are just ridiculous and nothing more than simple name calling and tauts stale, pale, and male and the like. If this is your adult table, I will pass.
I have to say that I'm biased against investment capitalists. They collect money from investors (other people), buy companies for pennies on the dollar, send the employees down the road, sell off the capital assets, and make a fortune. Mitt Romney is a perfect example of this exercise. Has nothing to do with the party - has everything to do with the man.
Exactly so SDN. The story of Tribune Companies this week is a perfect example. The holding company collected a bunch of newspapers through leveraged buyout, saddling them with enormous debt. Then they went to bankruptcy to write down a huge portion of that debt, with the holding company collecting THEIR management fees and other payouts the whole time. Now they sell the properties for whatever they can get for them, and the papers have been steadily laying people off the entire time.
"Poll: Obama, Clinton most admired again"...
By who, the leftist, media, the MSMBC crowd... Give me a break.
Not much has changed in 150 plus years of US Government - Big Loop of BS. Most leaders have not produced or changed all that much just get caught of in the loop.
Eisenhower really is probably the only predsident that accomplished some great things and vocalized the issues to come in the future that became pretty much true. With the press/media - and military government infrastruture.
Never trust the press or the government - They will tell you what you want to hear to serve there best self interest - simple as that........ (Get your Vote)
Also just remember our government is not run by the people for the people.
ITS all Big business and self interest NOTHING ELSE
I see the top two,are what really matters.
The rest are second and third rate losers,and then we have bush. And Romney,,about as popular as cancer,,
Welcome to 2013 same as 2012.
Not wanting to rain on the Liberal parade, but this poll was a random sample of 1,038 people. Hardly a worldwide ringing endorsement. The poll is also weighted according to gender, race, and age. But hey Obama won the election so he is popular in some circles.
I think they are jerking in those circles.
celtic: What would you say if Romney or Boehner had won?
harold still has his hands, and his mind, in his pants. After reading most of these posts, I find that those disliking, or hating, the President, have nothing to offer but sophomoric one-liners, and not a single "Happy New Year".
And yes, the responses will be predictably predictable.
Drunk bush,,loser
Neither drunk, did not vote for Bush and clearly I am not a loser. Get back to the car wash, break time is over.
So we have 4 big winners today: President Obama, our next President Hillary Clinton, the Redskins and the Vikings. Boo Yah!
God help us.
Agree 100%... on the Vikings.
This poll is the result of media corruption. The Benghazi Report (bipartisan) shows that Clinton and Obama basically murdered the US people in Libya. Obama and Clinton should be charged with negligent homicide. The US new media should be charged with domestic terrorism.
Amen!
We await.
Yes Andrea, when can we expect your investigation of the Benghazi disaster? I'm sure you are looking into Clinton and Obozo's decission not to rescue those Americans trapped there.
I bet your just about ready to release your story any day now.
Ha ha We know you've already forgot about those 4 Americans. No big deal for you Liberals.
We await.
Clinton and Obama basically murdered the US people in Libya
And here I was thinking it was the people that actually pulled the triggers that murdered those four people. Guess the conspiracy theorists have access to better intel than the rest of us.
Wait till the freebies run out, will the sheep still worship their Savior? When the Kenyan genious runs out of other peoples money will they turn on him?
Obozo is there for 4 more years, lets see how he does it.
We await.
show us on the doll where daddy touched you. what a sad, sad child.
@justaplumber
Your ass crack is showing. It's just above the collar of your shirt.
plumber, I take it you didn't vote for Mr. Obama?
I had the bad timing of taking a sip of coffee as I read your post. Now, you owe me a new keyboard, having caused me to spew coffee due to my spontanious outburst of laughter.
I can see that goosestepping tea bagger parrot of a plumber now.
More tripe from the tripe-writers... Just as a reminder: Hillary and her hillbilly lapdog, Bill, came close to bankrupting the state of Arkansas while they were "First People" there (not to mention the foolhardy shenanians they pulled on us as Prez and First Bitch), and as far as Moo-chelle goes --- it don't matter what kind of bag ya put it in, it's STILL trash! Oh, excuse me. That makes me a bigot, I forgot! (Yes, I am a bigot --- I'm bigoted against ANY piece of crap that feels like playing "God" with my nation, whether the POS is black, white, half black and half white like the current pretender, red, or purple polka-dotted!)
Okay, Bruce - or the other people who voted for this comment - here's the deal: I won't call you a bigot if you can explain to me why you feel it's so necessary to call ANYONE these sort of names. Is this what your mother taught you? Is this what you're teaching your own children? Or did you learn to act towards other people this way in school or in church? Is it okay with you if people refer to YOUR mother, YOUR wife, or YOUR daughter as a bitch or cow or trash? Does it really make you feel proud and superior? Do you honestly think you're winning anyone over to your point of view? Can you explain to us exactly what you just accomplished with this post?
Again - I'll refrain from calling you a name if you can explain to me why you can't do the same.
We'll be waiting.....
Amen, JoAnne. It amazes me how folks who may disagree with the policy of the current President do not articulate their disagreement and propose a counter argument but, rather, resort to name calling and derogatory references of his family. How quickly these comments flow as they type. Trash? Hardly. The President received a BA from Columbia University, a law degree (doctorate) from Harvard Law, was Editor of the Havard Law Review, (appeared in Newsweek), was a State Senator, then US Senator from Illinois, has written two books (along with collaborating on two children's books) and became President of the United States of America, the greatest country ever formed, by the time he was fifty. He was just re-elected by 4 million votes. Respect is hard to give, however, if there is no self-respect and I believe that is what is at play here. Along with Fox-fueled racism.
You must be high on something. Were are his college records. Were is his real soc. sec. #. What is his real religion. Think about it.
Henry -
No, YOU think about it, because you've apparently got nothing better to do. The rest of the world has accepted the truth and has long since moved on.
Read what Ceelle just wrote about self-respect and then maybe you'll understand.
Oh, and Bruce? Still waiting......
Ceelle, thank you for your comment. Excellant. I admire both the President and Hillary. They each speak and work for the people, that is why they are admired. The President is at the White House working this evening, not with his family, but staying at work to try and make a compromise for the people. He is admired because the people of this Nation realize he is there for them, speaking for them. Congress is so locked into their ideology they would rather see this Nation go over a cliff than compromise. I sleep better at night knowing that Obama is our President. Someone has to represent us, the folks that are not rich, work hard and do not have the power of the connected and rich.
Bruce, get over it. No one cares, old record, boring, move on, call your buddy Trump and visit. Do not bore us with this story.
your buddy odumbo is one who is out to lunch no leadership just points figers not a true leader, both clintons and obama's are fake obama never gave to charity until 2006, clintons only do it to impress people they brag about it, Michelle obama was a hateful lady until she hit the whitehouse I think that hate is still there, barry still hasn't figured out about the constitution, maybe he could teach it in china. Respect he just needs to stop being a pompous ass.I wonder how much his christmas vacation cost, oh I'm sorry his winter break, don't want to offend anyone!
Stream of consciousness posting rarely works, especially when it's nothing but a hateful rant.
Henry: We all thought about these things - before the election.
Bill, the election is over....you lost. The world moves on, with or without your ilk.
