That's what you gotta love about politics: you have people voting for these candidates, then complaining year after year when they're in office. You vote, you don't get to complain. Like George Carlin said, it's not like these politicians magically fall out of the sky into their respective positions.
Oh, and Cheney as a real life villain? He'd make a good one, he'd shotgun pop anyone who disagreed!
@Dragonpol: Precisely- there was one reason and one reason only that Obama was elected into office, and it certainly goes without having to be said. He pulled the typical "hope/change" slogans to appear ready for the Oval Office, but what has he done besides wrap his administration up in scandals such as Benghazi, the IRS, and this most recent prisoner swap escapade? He's an incompetent airhead and a true enemy to the United States, and the world, for that matter. I am fully convinced that he's dirty- there's no way he doesn't have his paws into illegal, anti-American activities. He's way too soft on terrorism, never speaking out against the Muslim radicals, and he is turning our culture against its roots through all of these bogus minority special privileges that put the majority down at the expense of mainly people who aren't supposed to be in the USA in the first place. Talk about a real life villain, there he is, ladies and gentlemen- Barack Houssein Obama!
How? He actually has had real success and experience, particularly with the economic side of things, which would have been an incredibly valuable asset to the Oval Office, what with our national debt being the way it is. Obama is only digging that hole deeper each day he is still in power.
I remember hearing something about that. Didn't he trash the lack of security for the Olympics or something?
Yeah and saying he didn't think we were ready to host it. What a muppet.
Him and his running mate wanted to keep the glass ceiling or whatever to keep women's pay grades less than that of men's and his running mate in particular wanted to completely ban Gay marriage. That's not a step forward. That's a big step backwards. At least Obama was talking about relevant issues and not issues that went against his religion. Neither were great, but Obama was obviously better. Ever hear of separation of church and state? I live by that philosophy.
Well said.
I don't mean to start a debate, but a man who is clear and genuine does not spy on his own people, and then brand the man who exposed this CRIMINAL activity a traitor.
As Bond once said. "Governments change, the lies stay the same."
Separation of church and state has everything to do with keeping government OUT of religion, and nothing to do with keeping religion out of government. Liberals these days have managed to twist that phrase into a weapon against conservatives, namely Christians. Not exactly an accurare philosophy to live by. And what's wrong with banning gay marriage? We've lived without it for this many years and been just fine. I'd much rather not have it- aside from my Christian beliefs, I also believe it'll ruin America. Once the gays have it, who's next for minority special privilege superiority? It'll never end. That being said, Obama is a menace who must be stopped.
Mods you can close this thread down.
We live in the 21st Century now and you have some growing up to do.
I know he's just about as opposite of a villain as can be, but the former pope, Benedict XVI, certainly LOOKS very villainous.
Yes and he's awesome. :))
George made a mess? What mess? He's the MAN who kicked the Islamists' butts when they tried to take us down- he did what Obama can't do- show a little backbone. Bush protected us. Obama is weakening us. George W. Bush is one of the greatest presidents who ever graced the Oval Office. We need his spirit in the White House, not an incompetent bozo whose experience might as well be non-existant. You're right, America is land of the free; I am glad that it is. But the Obama Administration is seeing to it that MY people, conservative Christians, essentially have no ability to proclaim God's Truth as it is. He's stripping Christians' rights to the bone- Land of the Free? I'd like to believe so too, but not with Obama. More like Land of the Illegal Immigrant or Land of the Any Ethnicity and Sexual Orientation Besides White Heterosexuals.
I live in the 21st Century- the 21st Century where Christians should still be able to express the truth without having to jump through thousands of political/social hurdles. At least George W. Bush made that a little easier for us. Talk about a real life HERO.
Oh I'm sorry. my sides are hurting too much. Great joke by the way. ;)
Let's see I'll name 31.
Took more vacation time than any other President
Invaded Iraq to get rid of WMDs which didn’t exist
Implemented protectionist steel tariffs
Outed a CIA agent for political purposes
Fired prosecutors who refused to abuse their positions for political purposes
Disregarded FISA laws and wiretappd Americans without warrants
Never caught Osama Bin Laden
Failed to plan for Iraq occupation after Saddam’s government fell and the subsequent occupation has killed 150,000 Iraqi civilians.
Created a vague “enemy combatant” status in order to indefinitely hold foreigners and even US citizens without trying or charging them with a crime.
Used torture to interrogate prisoners despite evidence that says information acquired through unreliable
Prematurely said the mission in Iraq had been accomplished.
Approved budgets that outspent our tax revenue by hundreds of billions of dollars.
Poor leadership on response to Hurrican Katrina
Little or no policy changes on our changing climate
Didn’t veto a single bill for six years and when he finally did it was to shoot down the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act.
Passed the Military Commissions Act, which removes the right to Habeus Corpus, one of the most fundamental safe guards against tyrannical governments.
Pulled out of the Anti-Ballistic Missle Treaty
Issues illegal “signing statements” when passing bills, saying which portions of the bill he will or won’t enforce.? This essentially allows him to rewrite legislation.
Pushed for elections in Palestine that lead to a Hamas victory, and then tried to overthrow them.
Allowed Don Rumsfeld to outsource much of the Iraq war to security contractors which are not subject to Iraqi or American military laws or standards.
Tried to appoint his personal attorney, Harriet Myers, to the supreme court.
Dangerous diplomatic philosophy that discourages peaceful negotiations with certain nations.
Appointed John Bolton, a man who said “there is no such thing as the United Nations“, as the UN Ambassador.
Consistent intellectual disinterest in his job.
Failed to act on warning signs of the September, 11th attacks.
Was dishonest with the American people about his National Guard service.
Lied about giving up golf in a time of war.
Dissolving the Iraqi army right after the war, putting thousands of trained soldiers into the insurgency.
Believing Paul Wolfowitz that the war and subsequent reconstruction would pay for itself with Iraqi oil revenue.
His policies contributed to a quadrupling of the price of oil.
Lied to the American people that Saddam Hussein was working with Al-Qaeda
Good one, Wes.
More vacation time than any other president? Obviously you haven't been paying attention to Barack "Let's Take a Trip" Obama- there's a vacation happy president.
Invaded Iraq? That was necessary- those Muslims had it coming to them, and actually the WMD's did exist- they were just hidden by the time we were able to get over there. That's fact.
Wiretapped Americans without warrants? Who cares? If you're doing what you should be doing, you have nothing to worry about. Only law-breakers cry injustice to wiretapping.
Never caught Osama bin Laden? Oh, and Obama did? All Obama did was press the go-ahead button. The military unit that carried out the operation did all the work. Obama just took the glory like a self-righteous tool.
Used torture for interrogation? Who cares? Prisoners are prisoners because they committed wrongdoing- if they refuse to give up information, torture is necessary to extract it. They could do it the easy way, but they wanted to play hardball, so Bush played it and got what we needed. Unlike Obama, Bush was effective.
Poor leadership on Hurricane Katrina? What was he supposed to do? Clean up all the streets himself? That's a state matter for Louisiana, with federal assistance where needed. What did Bush not do right, in your mind?
Policy changes regarding our changing climate? Global warming is a joke. It's not real. Bush used smart economic planning by not wasting money on a non-existent issue.
Discouraging peaceful diplomatic relations? How about those nations don't want to have peaceful ties with the USA? Bush lives in the real world where there are nations that are hostile to us, and it's a waste of time and money to try and establish "relations" with them. (Obama has been draining TONS of money trying to be friendly with the double-crossing, two-faced Pakistan for way too long)
I called you out and you just ignored it. If you can't be civil, I'm not going to waste my energy. Mods close up this useless thread.
It's amazing how little this community can get along and speak with respect to each other like mature adults when it comes to religion and politics.
Mods, please, I beg of you to close this thing down before it gets any worse.
