re: #433 JamesWI

I really don’t see why he hasn’t been blocked (and I’m not saying this due only to his comments tonight). I mean, this is ALL he does on this site. Once every few weeks-to-a-month, he comes on, trolls, and fills up the bottom comments. It’s obvious what he’s doing, and he’s never going to add anything to the debate like even someone like DF would do.

He’s simply a troll, and given that his account is over 7 years old with just about 200 comments, he’s almost certainly a sock.

You don’t get out much, do you ?
My views on Obama are actually quite moderate compared to about half the patrons in an average bar. I don’t “hate” the guy, I just find it astonishing that people are taken in by him. He’s roughly equivalent to a Neil Kinnock type, who even us Brits were sensible enough not to put in office.
I’ve seen how much damage a “moderate” left-wing government can do.
One of the things that appealed to me about the USA is, or was, the general suspicion of big government and attitude of self-reliance which Britain has mostly lost.
If he’s re-elected, then this country ain’t the same place it was when I came here.
