Of all the possible ways to refer to our uptight president, "dude" is not the first one that springs to mind. Comedian Jon Stewart changed all that Wednesday night, and President Obama was not amused.

Cisca Zarmansyah : If Republic was really serious about cutting the budget, the opportunity was already obtained in 2002, when they controlled almost all the government's joints in Washington.
A much subdued President Obama admitted yesterday that he took a "shellacking" in the midterm elections. Despite that meek concession, he doesn't appear to have gotten the order voters sent: Cease and desist. The Obama agenda has become a zombie, dead but continuing to walk among us.

Conventional wisdom suggests the 2010 midterm election was a referendum on the economy. That's not all it was. The public's distaste of Democrat-controlled government is much more profound.

Congressional Democrats are poised to lose the largest governing majority in a generation. The House certainly will return to Republican control after only four years, and the Democrats' 60-seat Senate supermajority effectively will be reduced to a tie.
The first Congressional districts to watch tonight.
Tonight, Republicans will watch the election returns hoping for an upset takeover of the U.S. Senate. And if President Obama has any sense, he will be rooting for the GOP as well.

Indeed, responding to America's fighting between Iranian is a dilemma. But, certainly it doesn't mean that doesn't support Iran means helping the US. Perhaps the best alternative is to break away from them and give support to the struggle of Mujahideen in Iraq and Afghan, which clearly fighting for Islam.
