MR. President and Switzerland!

Hello from Switzerland,

I thought he wanted to be the first black President of the USA. Seems to be
as if he likes green more!
As I have read this morning in the newspaper he wants to put Switzerland on
a "black list" together with countries that I personally do not want to be in
any connection or compared with.
Our family always bought, when ever possible, American products (cars, machines) and I have to say that I love your country.
But now I have to begin to think about that, sorry!

Have a better day, I am very disappointed.

Re: MR. President and Switzerland!

Keep in mind that the leader of a country does not always reflect the will of the majority of the people. President Bush was loved and reviled, and so to will President Obama. I think as time goes on more people who voted for him might find he is not what they expected, or at least has policies they oppose.
The coming years will be hard, and it will take smart and savvy leadership to captain the ship. Lets hope he is up to it without fundamentally changing our country.

1- Switzerland should turn over the names of people that have money stashed in Swiss banks. Most are hiding there money in Swiss accounts to hide the money from the US Government to avoid paying taxes.
2- Osama won by electoral vote and not by the majority vote. Quite a few Americans don't back his statements.
3- We are now living in a time of peril , cooler heads will prevail :thumbsup:

Why should Switzerland change their laws to comply with a request from the US?

2- Osama won by electoral vote and not by the majority vote. Quite a few Americans don't back his statements.

He has the power of Congress and the media behind him. The people do not figure in that equation.

3- We are now living in a time of peril , cooler heads will prevail :thumbsup:

I don't know that "peril" is the correct word for these situations. Only time will tell.............

IMHO only:)

Franz,

I don't see the US interested in "black listing" (no pun intended) Switzerland. Clooney raised quite a bit of money for Obama in Switzerland as I have read. Here's the latest I have read.

I'm disappointed you're disappointed. On the other hand, I and 80% of the American public (according to the latest WSJ/NBC poll) are very pleased with Mr. Obama thus far.

Regards. :cheers:

Wild and Blue,

Not sure where your last post went but it appears that over half of Tennesseans like Obama so far.

Pretty dramatic difference from results of Nov 4 where O lost by 15 points.

Re: MR. President and Switzerland!

I hope Mr. O. is your new Messiah and he makes no mistakes and nobody will be disappointed.
But disappointment could be enormous if the first glitter is off and reality rules the day.
I also think that there are other interests than get back some money lost from taxes.
I just know one thing exactly. Our politicians here are too weak in this "battle".
This is what I am afraid of.

Best regards,
