Obama moves to end the Don't Ask Don't Tell Policy
Don't Ask Don't Tell is the military term referring to the policy regarding gays and lesbians. The policy, signed in 1993 by former president Bill Clinton, was implemented as a compromise with legislature which opposed a repeal of the prior ban on gays in the military. According to the Department of Defense the policy states: Established under the premise of privacy, discretion and protection, the policy bans gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender people from serving in the military and preven...
Obama deserved the Nobel Peace Prize
There has been a lot of stir about Obama's winning of the Nobel Peace Prize. I believe he was an excellent candidate, because of the wars he does not promote. Many of the below-mentioned wars are promoted by certain politicians and past Presidents, and since Obama does not follow in their footsteps he deserves credit (even if he hasn't been active in condemning them up until now). 1) WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST- Obama obviously cannot be blamed for starting this, and he has done a good job so far...
The KKK will likely initate plans to assassinate President Obama.
First of all, I would like to inform the audience that I am in no way, shape, or form a racist. I was struck by this question on a foriegn talkshow actually. I will begin by opening with observations, followed by points. Observation 1: The resolution does not say definately whether or not they will, but the probability. Observation 2: Even if they do not carry out their plans, they would still formulate one. Observation 3: The KKK refers to any member of the Koon Klutz Klan, from a...
Obama's Stimulus Bill Will Succeed
I stand in negation. As my opponent is PRO, I will allow him to open. You must prove how the bill WILL succeed....
Obama's idea for "Universal Health Care" will only tear down America.
Obama's idea for universal health care will not help America. It will hurt the economy, the middle class, and anyone who pays taxes. Rich people know this. They make lots of money and don't want to loose another penny to another one of Obma's idiotic plans, such as heavily taxing anyone who makes over $150,000 a year (that number has been lowered three times since August). Resolution: If this plan of the President's is put into action, America will only fall into a deeper recession....
Obama has trouble speaking without a teleprompter
I stand in affirmation. If you will view this video, you can plainly see that when Obama's teleprompter doesn't work, he can't speak very well at all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDJSVPAx8xc he stutters and can't think! He makes the excuse of not getting enough sleep, but eh messes up constantly on different occasions! He thanks HIMSELF at the white house St. Patrick's Day party For the party! more videos to follow. I implore you debater, prove me wrong, there is no doubt that Obama continual...
Barack Obama is Unqualifed to Be President
OK so Barack Obama has been head of the Harvard Law Review, helped his community as a "Community organizer", served in the state senate, and has now served in the Senate for 4 years, although he has not authored or headed any Bill or agenda. I'm being kind, because that list on it's own is laughable. Barack Obama is an intelligent man with alot of Charisma, however, you could say that about alot of people out there. I just want some substance, true raw substance that qualifies Obama as Presi...
John McCain would be a better president than Barack Obama.
I'll let my opponent go first, but I'll set some parameters. First, we are talking about the ones running for president, and second PRO has to show J-Mac would be better than Barack, CON has to show that J-Mac wouldn't....
Obama isn't the first African American president in the world born from USA
Obama: The Most Honorable President in The Last 50 Years.
After winning his reelection, President Obama can be considered the most honorable president since the assassination of President Kennedy. President Obama, unlike most of his predecessors, has been able to distance himself from political scandals, corruption, love affairs, military interventionism, and any other event that could have damaged his legacy and image. Fortunately, the American people are enjoying and experiencing a historic moment in the construction of the best democracy arou...
