Left-wing Decoder; Obama Speak Interpreted Liberal Translation What does he really mean? Does he really mean what he says? Do words really matter? Will he really (More) What does he really mean? Does he really mean what he says? Do words really matter? Will he really do what he has promised? Do I use the word really, too much? The answers are: I dont know, I hope so, yes, we shall see, and yes.
I just hope that Obama is not like Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton would stand for anything if it would get him elected and keep him popular; he was a complete phoney. He would have sold his soul to the Devil to become President.
A quick example is when after the so called assault rifle ban was implemented, he signed an order that allowed a special shipment of some 100,000 assault rifles into the United States from China. Now if that is not an example of a man with no core values, then I dont know what is.
Even though Obama is a flaming liberal, and Im an arch conservative, I would in the end respect Obama if he stays true to who he is, and what he stands for. Obama needs to be Obama, which is what his supporters voted for.

Obama: Closing Gitmo 'a challenge'
Barack Obama suggested he's not likely to actively pursue criminal charges against national security officials who were directly involved in unlawful interrogations or wire-tapping, and said it would be difficult to quickly close down Guantanamo Bay.
On Guantanamo — which he repeatedly promised to shutter during the campaign — Obama, in an interview on Sunday with George Stephanopoulos on ABC's "This Week," reiterated his intent to do just that but also sounded a pragmatic note.
"That's a challenge," the president-elect said about the prospect of closing down to the detainee facility within the first 100 days of taking office. "I think it's going to take some time and our legal teams are working in consultation with our national security apparatus as we speak to help design exactly what we need to do.
On the question of prosecuting crimes that may have been committed during the Bush presidency in the course of the war on terror, Obama continued the theme of "looking forward as opposed to backwards" he took on the campaign trail and reaffirmed since winning the presidency last November.
While aimed at attracting consensus from a broader electorate, the position is not exactly what many in the liberal base of his party would prefer.
As Stephanopoulos noted, the most asked question on Obama's own transition website relates to investigating the "crimes" of the Bush administration.
Asked if he would appoint a special prosecutor to investigate such matters as warrantless wire-tapping and torture, Obama demurred.
"We're still evaluating how we're going to approach the whole issue of interrogations, detentions, and so forth," he said. "And obviously we're going to be looking at past practices, and I don't believe that anybody is above the law.
"On the other hand, I also have a belief that we need to look forward as opposed to looking backwards. And part of my job is to make sure that for example at the CIA, you've got extraordinarily talented people who are working very hard to keep Americans safe. I don't want them to suddenly feel like they've got to spend all their time looking over their shoulders and lawyering."
Pressed, Obama said twice more that he wanted to get "things right in the future, as opposed looking at what we got wrong in the past."
Asked specifically about the idea of a "9/11 Commission with independent subpoena power" to look at torture and warrantless wiretapping during the Bush years, Obama said, "We have not made final decisions, but my instinct is for us to focus on how do we make sure that moving forward we are doing the right thing. That doesn't mean that if somebody has blatantly broken the law, that they are above the law. But my orientation's going to be to move forward."

MTTSTT #2 METTA SUTTA http://web.ukonline.co.uk/myburma/p1metta.htm - weak or strong, without exception, long, large, (More) http://web.ukonline.co.uk/myburma/p1metta.htm - weak or strong, without exception, long, large, middling, short, subtle, blatant, seen & unseen, near & far, born & seeking birth: May all beings be happy at heart. Let no one deceive another or despise anyone anywhere, or through anger or irritation wish for another to suffer. As a mother would risk her life to protect her child, her only child, even so should one cultivate a limitless heart with regard to all beings. With good will for the entire cosmos, cultivate a limitless heart: Above, below, & all around, unobstructed, without enmity or hate. Whether standing, walking, sitting, or lying down, as long as one is alert, one should be resolved on this mindfulness. This is called a sublime abiding here & now.Not taken with views, but virtuous & consummate in vision, having subdued desire for sensual pleasures, one never again will lie in the womb. Alternative Translation : Translator's Introduction While the Buddha was staying at Savatthi, a band of monks, having received subjects of meditation from the master, proceeded to a forest to spend the rainy season (vassana). The tree deities inhabiting this forest were worried by their arrival, as they had to descend from tree abodes and dwell on the ground. They hoped, however, the monks would leave soon; but finding that the monks would stay the vassana period of three months, harassed them in diverse ways, during the night with the intention of scaring them away. Living under such conditions being impossible, the monks went to the Master and informed him of their difficulties. Thereon the Buddha instructed them in the Metta sutta and advised their return equipped with this sutta for their protection. The monks went back to the forest, and practicing the instruction conveyed, permeated the whole atmosphere with their radiant thoughts of metta or loving-kindness. The deities so affected by this power of love, henceforth allowed them to meditate in peace. The discourse gets divided into two parts. The first detailing the standard of moral conduct required by one who wishes to attain Purity and Peace, and the second the method of practice of metta. 1. "He who is skilled in (working out his own) well being, and who wishes to attain that state of Calm (Nibbana) should act thus: he should be dexterous, upright, exceedingly upright, obedient, gentle, and humble. 2. "Contented, easily supportable, with but few responsibilities, of simple livelihood, controlled in the senses, prudent, courteous, and not hanker after association with families. 3. "Let him not perform the slightest wrong for which wise men may rebuke him. (Let him think:) 'May all beings be happy and safe. May they have happy minds.' 4.& 5. "Whatever living beings there may be feeble or strong (or the seekers and the attained) long, stout, or of medium size, short, small, large, those seen or those unseen, those dwelling far or near, those who are born as well as those yet to be born may all beings have happy minds. 6. "Let him not deceive another nor despise anyone anywhere. In anger or ill will let him not wish another ill. 7. "Just as a mother would protect her only child with her life even so let one cultivate a boundless love towards all beings. 8. "Let him radiate boundless love towards the entire world above, below, and across unhindered, without ill will, without enmity. 9. "Standing, walking, sitting or reclining, as long as he is awake, let him develop this mindfulness. This, they say, is 'Noble Living' here. 10. "Not falling into wrong views being virtuous, endowed with insight, lust in the senses discarded verily never again will he return to conceive in a womb." Alternative Translation : Who seeks to promote his welfare, Having glimpsed the state of perfect peace, Should be able, honest and upright,Gentle in speech, meek and not proud. Contented, he ought to be easy to support, Not over-busy, and simple in living. Tranquil his senses, let him be prudent, And not brazen, nor fawning on families. Also, he must refrain from any action That gives the wise reason to reprove him. (Then let him cultivate the thought:) May all be well and secure, May all beings be happy! Whatever living creatures there be, Without exception, weak or strong, Long, huge or middle-sized, Or short, minute or bulky, Whether visible or invisible, And those living far or near, The born and those seeking birth, May all beings be happy! Let none deceive or decry His fellow anywhere; Let none wish others harm In resentment or in hate. Just as with her own lifeA mother shields from hurt Her own son, her only child, Let all-embracing thoughts For all beings be yours. Cultivate an all-embracing mind of love For all throughout the universe, In all its height, depth and breadth %G****%@ Love that is untroubled And beyond hatred or enmity. As you stand, walk, sit or lie, (Less)
