Does a president deserve a certain level of respect for having been elected to high office by a majority?
Q. I don't think that pointing out that the previous president's name is a homonym of a slang word for female genitals, as many people have done, is appropriate. The same applies to the current president, not to mention everyone else. I think it is childish, and does not promote constructive discussion. What do you think?

A. Yes he does, but he does not deserve a blanket of immunity for his actions. His popularity is down, not because of being elected, because of his actions. This applies to Bush and Obama.

What if the President refuse to carry out a ruling of the supreme court?
Q. What if the President does an Andrew Jackson number and refuse to carry out a ruling by the Supreme Court? For example, lets say in today federal court ruling that they government must release 5 suspect terrorist inmates from Cuba, but the President says no I will not do so and invoke constitution power over the courts, by saying we are at war, so therefore I am charge by the constitution to carry out the war tactics and prisoner of the war. And as an equal branch of government I refuse to do so Would that argument hold water?

Is President-Elect Barack Obama beginning to impress many of his detractors?
Q. By assembling a team of competent players in his Administration so quickly, isn't President-Elect Obama demonstrating that he is going to be a very competent President in very demanding times? He is putting his Cabinet together even faster than organizational master President-Elect Eisenhower did by having his assembled by December 1, 1952. President-Elects have traditionally taken about 7 weeks to assemble their Cabinets.

A. No. There is so much hatred in the hearts of wing nuts in this country the man could cure cancer and they d still call for his head. You see, there is a large part of this country (namely suburban, rural Protest whites) who feel this country is slipping away from them. In their perfect world all houses have white picket fences, everyone goes to church on Sunday morning and you only read about minorities and homosexuals in books. So no, they ll hate him no matter what.
