The Leadership Factor - Do you think 0bama has any?

Question:

Answers:

I would have been more interested in a question written by YOU instead of reading something written by Bill O'Reilly.

The damage all ready done, it doesn't matter who got in there, it take time to fix the problem.I got nothing against his color,leadership no, young generation voted for him. probably the worst will continue for a while.

the reason his health-care plan is falling apart is because Congressional Republicans are being too pig-headed and partisan to support anything he tries to do.

You can judge him on what he do now as President.

Obama makes a great leader as opposed to Bush and the otherwise would be McCain.I so agree with Pringles.Empty suit factor, if Americans didn't know this ahead of time, what can I say, I did research and found out just what he was up to, but Wow he knew how to brainwash everyone didn't he? He hoodwinked a lot who are now fighting for their health care and bank accounts, its a disgrace to what the USA stands for and its been this way for many years!! Gob less our nation!!Imaginative - Make timely and appropriate changes in your thinking, plans, and methods. Show creativity by thinking of new and better goals, ideas, and solutions to problems. Be innovative!I'll keep this simple and short. Compared to our previous president , he is leaps and bounds ahead as far as leadership ability. Obama has the respect of many important foreign leaders, and they aren't laughing behind his back like they did with Bush. Obama is not a fool, and sometimes it's best to sit back and let everyone else make fools of themselves. It is much too early to judge his leadership ability based on health care reform which is far from over, just on a temporary recess. We shall see what happens when congress gets back from their break. Obama poll numbers might be down as far as issues are concerned , but his personal rating is still higher than ever. I, for one, am glad we have an intelligent man in the White House who knows how to think and who doesnt have some secret agenda as did the Bush administration. The Bush administration was an embarassment to this great nation, and Obama cannot be expected to come in with the load Bush left behind and do everything picture perfect. I'd say he's done a good job at stabilizing the economy as well as turn things around in our relations with a lot of the world. Yes,Obama is very much a leader, a cool calm collected leader which is just what this country needs at this point, not someone who is freaking out every step of the way or getting angry. Sometimes , the best leader is the one who sits and watches quietly while the rest bark away. By the way ,any industry with billions of dollars at its disposal is going to put up a good fight towards any kind of change, this was to be expected. Money buys a lot of things including shouting people at town hall meetings, and politicians with theirs hands out,and thats the stuff we see up front. Money also buys all the subtle way and means of influencing policy , the stuff we dont see, the uglier stuff you might say. I say reserve your judment and dont be so ready to throw in the towel on this man who very well might be 2 steps ahead of us already.

How do I get my husband back if he's "left" on Separation, due to fights and divorce papers being filed?

Question:

So we get close to home, and he butters me up and says he's sorry and I forgive him...partially b/c my parents have just flown into town that day and I'm heading back from b'day vacation trip to have to go see my

Answers:

i honestly think u 2 need counseling if u really want to make it work! need to get everything all out in the open and just deal with it.

that's messed up right there. its good ur in counseling. but its not just u that is causing the problems. and don't sit there and take all the blame, its his fault too, i mean he is the reason that u r nit-picking. u cant let him walk all over u and tell u its all ur fault.

It would be a shame for you to split.

Let him go... it sounds like you two need to go your separate ways!

Judging from your 1st 2 paragraphs (too long, I have a short attention span!), this is not a health place for your children or you. Move on and and find someone who is healthy!

Is it normal for a husband to only communicate by text when away for two months?

Question:

We have a second home 800 miles away and is tucked away in the mountains The house had a leak in the basement , weeds were way high and we had a mice problem. My husband could not leave to help me for he said he could not get away from his business for even a few days. Just a few days after I arrived and I had been working like a dog with the yard and cleaning the basement,my husband calls me to let me know that he was bringing some of his friends at the end of sept to play in the member guest golf tournament here. I was so angry and i yelled at him because i needed him here to help me that this was no get away vacation that i was having and he had been planning this little getaway with his friends. He told me he needed peace and could not stand my yelling and only wanted to communicate thru text. I have been here two weeks and at night I receive a text saying "Are you safe"? my response "yes"

Answers:

It takes two. Be the sane one.

don't text back, just call him. yeah is weird that's your husband! you should have waited until your husband had time and went with you to clean up, if you decided to clean up on your own, now don't complain.

My question what are you still doing up there? Come home and file your divorce papers. Your husband is an ***.

Find a good lawyer

You are a pain in the butt to him.yes he is saving money he knows already you are both in loveStrange.

Was this unfair, was she over reacting ?

Question:

Thanks in advance .

Answers:

I'm not much help with questions like that because my parents trust me alot, since I never did anything to make them. I just don't find a point in that. Stuff that shouldn't be done brings consequences- smile now, cry later.

That was a little... overprotective of her. But she's your mother and she protective, you were in a whole different country she was probably worried to death.

Completely overreacting.

Kill them all.

she is defo over reactingWith this i don't think i deserve the negatives or if anyone would care for debate i'd be happy to oblige.Either your mom has always been over protective (some moms are like that), or yeah she really over reacted. Your mom shouldn't keep you away from your dad if you want to be with him, you have rights too. I'm not sure but from your story it sounded like your mom just wanted to pick a fight with your dad. I hope she is just being over protective but if it's because she doesn't want you to be with your dad then you probably have to go to court or have your parents sign legal documents agreeing when each of them have custody over you. (sorry, i don't know how these things work). Try calling your dad, that would better than just leaving a note. He's probably worried too.Hope I helped :)woooooowwwwww you mom is over over OVER reacting at first i thought she was just gonna yell no tv etc but when you said she was cursing at you what mom does that, and she forcing you back with her can she do that. stand up for yourself yell alittle, your a teenager its perfectly normal. and its your freakin COUSIN how can you not start gagging when you think about it. tell her nothing happened again and again, yelling would help and she doesn't need to know where you are 24/7 shes in a different county for crying out loud she isn't in charge of you now you father is. and i'd 'have it worse than ever before' sounds like a terrible way to spend your vacation. and you are on vacation you should have fun not even worry about the most irrational mom ive ever heard about in my life

Am i the only one who thinks this is unfair ?

Question:

Thanks in advance .

Answers:

Sorry you're in this situation and I hope all of you can work things out in a calm and respectful way. Let us know if thinks work out OK or not.

Good luck xx

Try to have your dad talk to her and if it comes down to it he can always take her to court and get rights to you. sounds like shes missing you so much shes trying to run your life while shes not around you she just doesn't want you to make any bad choices and i understand that but to take you away from your father the way she did that is really not cool and you should talk to your dad he has rights to you didn't have to go with your aunt you could have stayed with your dad really talk to your dad and maybe all of you can come to some understanding or do the dirty thing and make it legal

Good Luck!

Good luck :)Yes she is over reacting. Does she have sole custody of you or somehting? coz if not by sending your aunt and uncle to take you from your fathers house she may be interfering in his custody time.I opened this question thinking 'this is going to be a typical teenager who did something wrong and now won't accept the punishment,' but now I feel very sorry for you as your mother is acting wholly unfairly. First of all, like you said, he is your cousin, so she should be able to trust him around you. Second of all, when you woke up at 1 your mum had already called and spoken to your dad, so knew you were in the house and safe (and hadn't left the house at all at that point) so I don't know what she had to feel angry about just then. You're a teenager on holiday - what's the big deal if you go to bed late and sleep most of the day away? At least you were in and not going out drinking. Thirdly, you had gone to the beach with the permission of your father, were only there for 4 hours, were never alone, and were back by 9pm. Perhaps, I might be able to understand she thought that was a little late, but then she only needed to ask your dad to ensure you were given an earlier curfew. As for not letting her know, it is ridiculous to expect a child on holiday with one parent to inform the other parent of absolutely everything she does. And as for demanding that you leave your dad's house right then and there, that is plain stupid and incredibly cruel towards both you and your father. It is not fair to cut short his time with you when she moved you away from the country and so he doesn't see you that often as it is. I hate to be mean about your mum, who I am sure does have many good qualities and does think she has your best interests at heart, but I don't think anything you say is going to make much difference as she is obviously very needy and stubborn. The best thing to do would be to have your dad talk to your aunt and uncle and have him persuade them to let you come back to his. As you are not their child they really have no right to keep you from him. Then your dad should calmly tell your mother that you are remaining with him for the rest of the holiday, she can phone at 6pm every day to talk to you (or whenever is convenient for him and you), and she will see you at the prearranged date of the end of the holiday. Your dad needs to maintain the upper hand of being calm and sensible, but he really should hold his ground as he deserves to be able to spend time with you. I mean, for goodness' sake, when I was 8 I went away with the Brownies for a week and never spoke to my mother once! At 15 she needs to cut the apron strings a little, as a friend of mine had a mother who was also very controlling, and the girl eventually began having panic attacks all the time and now at the age of 27 rarely leaves her mother's side. Hopefully that wouldn't happen to you, but if she's not careful she'll push you away and you'll end up choosing to live with your dad and not her at all.
