Obama press conference just now
Posted: Jun 15, 2012
Obama needs treatment for anger management. I have never seen a president stand before the American public and act so ridiculous and unproffesional. In my opinion the reporter he addressed was correct!
;
Didnt see the conference but - feel just the opposite actually
[ In Reply To ..]In the face of the horrible things these people have called him and how he has been treated with such mouth-foaming viciousness I believe the man has shown remarkable constraint....much more than I ever possibly could have.
The reporter was rude. The president was addressing...sm - VTMT
[ In Reply To ..]the American people not having a press conference and taking questions. This was rude and everyone in the Washington Press Corp knows it. The president was surprised and showed he can get angry now and then. In fact, I was very proud of our president today and think he did the right thing. He partially fulfilled another campaign promise by this executive order. The do nothing Congress was not acting so he took the matter into his own hands, giving young illegals some breathing room and a chance to prove that they would be a good candidate for citizenship. Good job Mr. President!
Oh brother... - anon
[ In Reply To ..]A pack of bleeding heart Democrats no doubt.
I thought republicans were in favor of tradition. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]It is tradition for the Press to be respectful of the POTUS.
differ - anon
[ In Reply To ..]That would apply if I felt he was a president. He's a very overwhelmed, inept attempt to be a president.
You must be speaking of Bush, right? - overwhelmed, inept? NM
[ In Reply To ..]x
You must be speaking of Bush, right? - overwhelmed, inept? - NOPE CLEARLY KING OBAMA
[ In Reply To ..].
Exactly - Conservative
[ In Reply To ..]The reporter was not the least bit disrespectful. In fact, he was so calm and soft spoken, it was very difficult to actually hear his question. Obama on the other hand, behaved exactly with the same rude, obnoxious behavior he did when the Republicans were requested for the health care photo op Obama put on for 7 hours. Obama has no class at all. On top of all that, what about the reports of the LIBERAL press actually chasing the reporter down the street? Talk about a mob mentality! What did the liberal press think they had a right to do to the one lone journalist that actually asked a legitimate question that Obama did not like? Shoot him, tar and feather him? Nice to see there is one journalist left that does not succumb to the bully pulpit and the bully.
beg to differ - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I am so surprised to hear you state that "the reporter was not the least bit disrespectful." Since when do reporters interrupt the president in the middle of speaking? That's not at all appropriate or in keeping with accepted rules of order, with which, I imagine, you are well familiar.
Did we watch the same press conference? I did not find Mr. Obama to be at all "rude" or "obnoxious". Again, I am surprised to hear you say this, as I usually find your posts to be a little more circumspect and little less tainted by bias than the average poster here. I guess that's over.
I watched it - the reporter was not rude - anony2
[ In Reply To ..]I actually thought both sides were okay. The reporter was not rude. He was asking a question. He showed no disrespect. Just wanted an answer to his questions.
On the other hand I didn't think Obama was as bad as I thought he would be (i.e. his usual self). I think he handled it well. A little bit of stumbling on words. He's usually much worse than this. I thought he was okay too.
To me it looks like the reporter was asking a question Obama didn't want to answer. I think he should have gone about it in a different way, but he wasn't rude.
I do think it is wrong however, for Obama to be acting like he thinks he's King passing whatever he wants to without congresses approval. He needs to be held responsible for his actions. If he goes too far there are grounds for impeachment. You don't do whatever the **** you want to do and not get approval. We have laws in place. Just because someone is sitting in the presidents seat does not give them the right to do whatever they want.
Your last point is what truly worries - Trigger Happy
[ In Reply To ..]me about another possible 4 years under Obama. Seriously...who died and made him king? There are laws to be followed and steps to be taken. I know the democrats and republicans can't seem to compromise on much of anything....and both sides aren't budging....but there is still a process to follow and Obama is totally disregarding that.
Seriously makes me wonder if we don't have a dictator in the making here.
I agree. Obama, it seems, would like to be King Obama - No respect for the process, and he needs votes.nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
As a constitutional lawyer, I am sure Obama knows what his - rights as president are. nm
[ In Reply To ..].
Ahh, but he is not one. His license was revoked - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Mr. O's license was revoked. Oh, I'm sure he knows what the rights of a president are too. Doesn't mean he is going to follow them.

Now...onto the research, which is really pretty easy to find. That is when you want to find out the truth. Couple of interesting articles at the end too.

Love it - I had 2 dislikes literally witthin the first 1 minute of posting. - It's good to be what if
[ In Reply To ..]I just thought that was funny. I posted my message, it said successfully posted, when to the board to read my message again, make sure it said what I wanted it to say and saw 2 dislikes.
That put a smile to my weekend. :-)
Yeah what if, you must have hit their "lib" nerve - with a sledge hammer ;)
[ In Reply To ..];)
a reason you might be getting those responses - ...
[ In Reply To ..]You are providing links to "stories". These are not facts. It's important to note that just because you can google something does not make it true. If you were to research these "references," you would discover them to be unreliable.
I counld understand that, but don't think anyone can read that fast - just sayin - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I have no problem with people disliking my post - if they read the context of it and like you said my links. But when you go from hitting the yes button to post the story, then you hit the back button to go to the politics page, then you go down to the post and open it again to make sure it's okay (took me all of less than a minute, and you see 2 dislikes I highly doubt it was because they disliked the what was written or the links.
just sayin
Would bet it was only because of your moniker - It IS good to be what if
[ In Reply To ..]At least your post issues and substances...the others "not so much". That's just a story they tell themselves. :)
pifflewaffle - nope
[ In Reply To ..]That is patently incorrect. Do some research, stop reading right-wing blogs, turn off Fox.
Piffle Waffle right back - Assume much? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]You don't know me. You don't know what I watch or don't watch. Assumptions never work out well for the one making them, my dear.
Did my research. Not incorrect. Do yours, and do stop reading and watching left winger sites and stations. Try doing some independent research. It really frees the mind from all that brainwashing the left is giving you.
Chain email mentality strikes again. - FactCheck on your bogus claim
[ In Reply To ..]It's a long read. Hope you're up to it. If not, the gist of it is the Obamas law licenses were never "revoked." POTUS license is voluntarily retired, and FLOTUS is voluntarily inactive. The reasons they decided to do so are discussed in detail in the link....and NO, there is no public record of discpilinary proceedings against either of them, no ethics charges, ect. Clean as a whistle, those two.
Bottom line: False internet rumor. Looks like that pifflewaffle is right back in your court where it belongs.
http://factcheck.org/2012/06/the-obamas-law-licenses/
Again? Factcheck - Anything but factual - Piffle waffle back in your court - sm
[ In Reply To ..]It's a long read. Hope you're up to it. It's what we call research.
Obama - Ayers - and Factcheck all have ties to the Annenberg Foundation.
It was established before the election that Factcheck is not reliable.
Turns out that FactCheck - which everyone has been referring to as if it were the political Bible, is a baby of the Annenberg Foundation.
Senator Obama was the first Chairman of the Board of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which was a Division, or Project, of the Annenberg Foundation.the one with a board connected to William Ayers and Barack Obama.

Pages and pages more of proof, but I am not doing other people's research, especially when they don't want to know the truth. The truth is out there. Want to try again? How about an independent source. Not one linked to the political party they favor.
Sorry, mama don't play with factoids emanating - from the parallel universe
[ In Reply To ..]nor is she swayed or distracted by the irrevelant Anneburg Foundation side show approach. There is no public record of disciplinary proceedings on which alleged law license revocation could be based. Not only do you claim otherwise, when confronted with cold hard facts, you dig in further. Therefore, the onus is on you to produce the (fictitious) records that back your claim. You and I both know you cannot do that, so as far as I'm concerned, we're done here.
***
Parallel universe - that's where you'll find not-a-Fact check - Sorry, didn't know you didn't like facts
[ In Reply To ..]Sorry you are not up to wanting to know the truth or facts about anything.
Those who do not want to know never will do research.
Hope that works out for ya.
I'll take that as a no-you-can't come up with records - of disciplinary proceedings
[ In Reply To ..]against FLOTUS and POTUS. I'd be happy to pursue this further should that situation ever change. As it stands now, since you got nothing, this thread is dead.
What is it about research that is so hard for you to do on your own - Sorry, didn't know you don't like facts
[ In Reply To ..]Simple Google searches can provide the information. Adore him all you want, the facts remain the same.
BTW, never said any disciplinary actions were taken against them. Your words, not mine.
Here are websites, but then again don't expect you'll even read them as it's not what you want to believe.

As I said in my previous message there are plenty of links to prove this.
But like my other message, don't expect you'll even read these.
And since you don't have any facts to back up what you believe, now this thread is dead.
Looking for something that's not there is - a waste of valuable time
[ In Reply To ..]...namely, a bogus disciplinary action the wingnuts are trying to peddle in support of hateful lies they tell each other in silly, childish chain emails. The Obamas made a personal choice to inactivate their law licenses because they no longer practice law. Should they ever decide to return to practice, they both are eligible to do so. They simply activate the license and begin paying the fees again. What part of this simple, plain English reality do you not grasp?
You have been provided with links that include a snapshot of ARDC records (Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois)....an agency that is as nonpartisan as they come. Seeing is not believing in your world. Sorry, but I have no interest in pursuing an open-and-shut case with anyone who makes a conscious choice to remain willfully ***....it's just not my thing. Without providing a link to these fictitious records you so adamantly claim exist, you have no credibility. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. You can post these ridiculous replays about "research, research, research" 'til the cows come home, but it isn't going to change the facts in this matter.
Now, if you will excuse me, I am following the developments in Syria at the moment. Russia is deploying a couple of warships to this blood-soaked, war-torn region where I have family and friends, as the goverment continues to escalate its ongoing genocidal campaign to repress the revolution there. Body count is 13,000+ so far and it is positively unnerving not to be able to reach loved ones to see if they are dead or alive. I know it must be quite a shock to you, but there ARE bigger things going on in this world besides obsessing over how many different ways you can come up with to lie and hate on the the president and First Lady.
not that this will matter to you, but here are the facts - you know...facts??

Not that it will matter to you, but those are not facts - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I don't know how many times posters have to say this over and over. Snopes is not a reliable site. Snopes is financed by George Soros. That would be like me putting up a site financed by George Bush and pretend its the political bible.
Once again, Snopes does not have the facts. They write what George Soros and the left tell them to write. You may not like it, but that' is a fact. How about posting something that doesn't benefit one party or the other. I doubt you'll find anything to back up your claims.

What impartial fact checking site do you trust? - nm
[ In Reply To ..].
I like - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I get my information from various sources. You cannot get information alone by using just one site, as we find out with Fact check and Snopes (and others) they are backed by either liberal or conservative money and never are trust worthy (unless you favor the political party they are benefitting).
I look at Politifact. I also look at sites like Reuters. I read other countries news sites because they have no stake in whether a news story benefits one party or the other. Stay away from the MSM in this country. They all have an agenda.
When I hear a news story I will search it. I will read through three pages of articles reading both liberal and conservative sites. You cannot trust just one source. Research who wrote the articles and what their motives are. By reading everything, no matter who much you hate the other side (not you personally, just you as a general term) and no matter how "weird" something may sound, it just may be true.
When you find out that people like Soros, Ayers, or even Rove or Cheney on the other end of the spectrum or funding sites you cannot and absolutely should not trust them.
My two favorite sayings from the TV show, which are true is:
Trust No One & The Truth is Out There
So you like Politifact, huh? - Why then do you suppose
[ In Reply To ..]they too posted the thorough research done in the FactCheck.org piece on this subject?
Scroll down half the page and there you have it.
http://www.politifact.com/curation/national/archive/
What I said was - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I get my information from various sources. You cannot get information alone by using just one site.
Yes I read Politifact, but I also take what they say and research it more. That is with every site you read. Not 100% of everything they write is the solid truth.
Since Politifact did not write anything about their law licenses themselves, but preferred to put up a link to Factcheck, which we know is not trustworthy, that is one of those subjects you need to research, research, research. Just because Poltifact puts a link to it doesn't mean its correct. Try reading - Records at the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois. That is a court record on file. Not some site paid for by Soros, Ayers, Obama, or other liberals. Do independent research, court records, or people who have nothing to gain or lose by what they write.
I don't take any one site as the Bible. Also, another reason to research is because one of the sites they list in politifact is a site that write stories like Katie Perry's nude costume, what would dogs look like with eyebrows (had to laugh at that one), and 13 cats having a better summer than you (laughed at that one too).
Again, research, research, research. That's all I'm sayin.
Oh dear, that's hilarious - sm
[ In Reply To ..]...and you are obtaining "facts" from a website entitled "pragmatic witness"? I find that if I click on "sources", I am taken to a sign-in for the "modern militia unit"! Not too mainstream. (Plus, the article makes no sense and is all over the map.)
Snopes remains independent, per their website: "The snopes.com web site is (and always has been) a completely independent, self-sufficient entity wholly owned by its operators, Barbara and David Mikkelson, and funded through advertising revenues. Neither the site nor its operators has ever received monies from (or been engaged in any business or editorial relationship with), any sponsor, investor, partner, political party, religious group, business organization, government agency, or any other outside group or organization."

don't think so; you are making choices about what to believe - not based on facts...nm
[ In Reply To ..]
I make my choices about by researching and cross referencing - It doesn't matter what the outcome is
[ In Reply To ..]I research and then I research the research. When I have enough facts in hand I made up my mind about whether or not I believe something.
People should look at facts and stop being party loyalty. When people are so loyal to the party/man they never want to hear facts if it is against them.
As an independent I step back and examine the facts.
As a constitutional lawyer, I am sure Obama knows what his - rights as president are - TOO BAD OBAMA DOESN'T GIVE A DAM

Well, do some research on how many EOs each - president has done SM
[ In Reply To ..]and then come back and tell me who you think should have been impeached (especially research Bush record on this)
anony2 - good assessment - Conservative
[ In Reply To ..]I watched the entire press conference, and the reporter was not the least bit rude. Obama is so used to getting a pass from the press, with no hardball questions at all, and certainly never any push for an explanation, it was clear Obama was very, very angry that anyone would have the audacity not to roll over because Obama said so. To me, Obama looked very childish, like the little spoiled brat that he is. In Obama's mind, it is clear he does not care about the American people at all; Obama is only interested in pushing his socialist agenda down everyone's throat no matter what the cost.

[ In Reply To ..]
Anony2: Did you see the post below about - all the EOs that each SM
[ In Reply To ..]has done? Do you still think Obama should be impeached?
Was not rude and "everyone in the WA press core knows it" ??? - ashamed and disgusted - sm
[ In Reply To ..]This was not rude. He was asking a question that needed to be answered. You see, that is what the president is supposed to do. Answer the questions. And everybody knows that.
There was nothing to be proud of. There is a time and place for everything. Mr. O should have just answered the question.
As for him not getting Congress' approval. Shame, shame, shame on you Mr. O and anyone who thinking he can just do whatever he wants. Doesn't matter if he's a democrat or not. We have a congress for a reason. No one person even if they believe they are "King" has the right to just do whatever they want. There is a reason we have a congress. Both democrats and republicans do their job. If they don't approve of something there is a reason for it, and whether or not you agree with their decision makes no difference. President Bush didn't just do whatever he wanted. He always got congresses approval. Mr. O cannot come in and just say I want it so it is. That is not how the system works. I hope congress acts upon this and takes the correct administrative action.
Shame, shame, shame on you Mr. O and anyone who thinks it's okay. This is certainly not a day to be proud of treasonous acts but more to be ashamed of them.

Please research Bush EOs before you say - SM
[ In Reply To ..]" President Bush didn't just do whatever he wanted. He always got congresses approval" Where did you get this information anyway or is this just your opinion?
Please do your research. What specific EOs are you talking about - sm
[ In Reply To ..]No Bush fan, but please, do tell, what EO(s) are you referring to. I'm on my fourth page of Google searches and not finding anything, which is unusual because most of the articles regarding Bush are filled with hate. Can't find a link though so if you have one would be interested. I can tell you this. I lived through his presidency. We know what is going on through day to day happenings. Living through his presidency and watching and listening to everything he did I don't ever remember him signing executive orders without congress' approval on issues that congress HAS to approve.
So, do tell, which one(s) are you referring to.
History of executive orders. - see link

Yes, this clearly shows that Bush had more than - sm
[ In Reply To ..]TWICE the amount of Executive Orders that Obama has had.
I'm sure these FACTS will distress some of the cons on this board.
Reporter should have waited. - Trigger Happy
[ In Reply To ..]The president should not have been interrupted like that. No matter whether you like Obama or not, that position does demand some respect. However, Obama cannot handle any questions that aren't easy questions for him. He is so used to getting easy questions that when someone actually lets him have it, he gets flustered and angry. He isn't very good at hiding his anger.
I'd put Obama's ability to handle any - question handed SM
[ In Reply To ..]to him up against any republican any day. The covert racism that has gone on for so long with many has now become overt, and he has been able to maintain his dignity through all of it. Becoming a bit angry is a lot better than what Bush used to do, laugh and make jokes.
Obama ability? - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Anything king-wanna-be Obama has to say after the absurd statement he recently made professing the public sector is doing fine is mute because obviously reality does not live in his head.
Clearly his most recent decision was a campaign stunt.
With regard to the above comment on racism, please--open your eyes and blink occasionally. No one man will ever eradicate racism regardless of his power or position.

[ In Reply To ..]Can'the see anything about Obam, or anyhone else, unless you paint it with the "color brush".
Enough with the phony racism allegations - sm
[ In Reply To ..]This topic has nothing to do with his race. A reporter asking a question does not make him a racist. Especially when the same type of questions were asked to Bush. Besides, you do know he's half white don't you. No, that's not a rumor, it's true. He's said it, his genealogy can prove it. Not making it up. Just is very annoying every time I hear some statement about racism when no racism is involved. This phony racism card needs to stop. Don’t people even realize by constantly droning up phony racist comments it takes away the seriousness of real racism issues. There are truly some serious issues going on in regards to racism, so drumming up false allegations lessens the severity of the real issues.
And I would put any republicans ability to handle any questions against Mr. "uh, er, um, uh, uh, em, er, uh, uh, uh, er, em, er, uh" O.
A reporter was asking a question. If he would have answered the question that would have been it. But no, that was too difficult. He had to play the “I am king, hear me roar” game, only in the end looking like the court jester. Do you understand now why other countries are laughing at us.
His ineptness at his job, unable to think on his own, inexperience, lack of knowledge on issues, lack of compassion for the people in the country will be his undoing. If you think people with anger management issues are dignified, well don't know what to say to that.
I'll tell you this though...I will take President Bush's good nature, kind personality, witty sense of humor. Someone who understands the struggles that people like myself go through. Someone who understood not everyone is going to agree with them and actually has said “it's okay to disagree with me” instead of “who disagreed with me, I want their name”. Someone who would come out and actually admit if he was wrong on issues, take the blame for the mistakes made under his watch and give credit to other people when it was due and not take credit for things he had nothing to do with. Someone who puts you at ease and someone who makes you feel proud to be an American. No, Bush was not the perfect president. No president is (even JFK himself), but compared to what we are stuck with now makes me miss the jovial, caring President Bush. The President who I felt safe at nights when I went to sleep. I'll go back to when more people had jobs and could get jobs. Where I as a middle income person could make something with my life and could look forward to a future. Where we felt as a nation we were all in the same country working towards the same goal. Where the constitution and founding fathers were respected. I'll take that over someone with anger management problems, dividing the country according to party or race, proves he refuses to work with republicans and calls anyone not in his party the “enemy”. Someone who makes statements regarding individual cases before he has any facts about the cases or someone who thinks he can make it all better by having a beer. Someone who is first to jump on the ship and cry racism when a young black man is killed by another race (when he doesn’t even know the facts of the case), but stays silent when an innocent white young woman with young children is hacked to death in an obvious racially motivated case. Where’s the cry of “she could be my daughter”. Even Bush wasn’t that stupid so say something so racially hate bating as they “could be my child”. But no, Nothing! Silence! Tired of the unfairness, blame game, always someone else’s fault on decisions he makes himself. Making wall street and CEOs richer than ever while proving he doesn't care about the suffering the people are going through in this country, until it’s re-election time again that is. And people are now saying “and I thought Bill Clinton was the biggest megalomaniac”. Someone who feels he has to compare himself to every other president in our history, always of course inserting how he did it better than anyone ever did in history and puts himself above truly great leaders like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, when he has done nothing to justify that. Yep, sorry I’ll take someone who has compassion and humility and who cares and proves he cares about the people. Someone who will offer assistance when you need it and try and help find a solution to the problems instead of a beer.
And that is my opinion.
Okay, got my flame resistent suit on.
I'll help you put out the fire from the flamers - Sick of the hateful racist that accuses
[ In Reply To ..]everyone else of the deep-seated hatred and racism that poster has for anyone disagreeing with Obama, then tries to turn it on everyone else. Never saw anyone so hateful, bordering on maniacal obsession, regarding skin color; just ignore Comrade Obama's lack of character, compassion, dignity, ineptness, inexperience, incompetence - Ignore it all because OBAMA IS HALF BLACK. CANNOT GET MORE RACIST THAN THAT. POSTER TURNS A BLIND EYE TO:
* FACT: OBAMA DID NOT INHERIT worst recession (flat out lie); Regan did.
* FACT: Under Obama highest level of unemployed for longest period of time.
* FACT: Under Obama, household worth dropped 38.9% since he took office.
* FACT: Under Obama, highest level of food stamp recipients IN HISTORY.
* FACT: Under Obama, since taking office, net household income dropped approximately $ 4000.00.
* FACT: Under Obama, no budget for over 3-1/2 years.
* FACT : Under Obama, 26 jobs bills pased by HOUSE, completely ignored, refuses to even read.

There are loads more. None of the above has to do with race and everything to do with Obama's complete incompetence. You want more, don't believe above? Try ditching the entitlement mindset, Dems talking points, get off your lazy *** and start looking it up yourself. I owe nothing to anyone on this board; if you're too lazy to do any research - Oh well, guess you need a place to park you bike.
PLEASE QUIT WITH THE NAME CALLING ! ! - nm

There was no name calling - Moderator
[ In Reply To ..]A poster has shared her viewpoint and posted what she found. Every poster has the right to post their opinions and since she didn't call anyone a name there is nothing wrong with her post.
"get off your lazy ***" is not name calling? - nm
[ In Reply To ..].
No, it's not - See message - Moderator
[ In Reply To ..]What she wrote is not name calling. She did not call a specific poster that name. She made a general statement about what she feels. There are many general statements made on this board directed at both sides that are people expressing their opinions on how they feel, but unless a poster specifically calls another poster a name directly that is not name calling.
We may not always like what the other side has to say. Reading all the posts it looks like both sides do not want to hear the other side give their opinion, but the board is here for people to discuss issues and express their feelings. Every poster has that right. Also, that poster was not directing her post to you, she was responding and agreeing with another poster.
apparently, what is good for the goose is not - good for the gander
[ In Reply To ..]I don't really care if someone wants to use foul language or hurl insults. But if that is the case, the same rules should apply to all.
It's hilarious that some posters play these games; it's even more hilarious that we have moderators sticking up for them!
More hilarious is the hypocrisy of posters - that say what they want
[ In Reply To ..]endlessly accuse posters of racism and then want to restrict others free speech. What is "good for the goose is good for the gander". BTW - Try reading the OPs WHOLE thread. Posters constantly and directly called "racist" all the time by poster(s) with no fact to support slanderous attack of racism. When poster(s) don't get their way, they start with the tantrums and lie about what is posted. Glad to see OP did not back down to the false allegations. More glad to see the Moderator can see through these hypocritical poster(sS). If the shoe fits.....
that's right... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]The word racism was thrown around quite a bit wasn't it? I even happen to be one of those posters called racist "...by poster(s) with no fact to support slanderous attack of racism."
In fact, I was anointed the "board racist" by several warm and nonhypocritical posters who couldn't understand why "Imperial Wizard" brought KKK to mind for me. Color me confused.
There was no endless back and forth from me, no accusations of racism, and yet, here I am today: the board racist.
I seek not to restrict the free speech of others. I would, however, like to enjoy the same free speech in sticking up for myself as is enjoyed by those posters who seek to harass and assail.
Hoo, boy, Bush had a kind personality fo' so. - Just ask the folks in Iraq.
[ In Reply To ..]x
Well sure they feel the same way the folks in Afganistan feel - about yours truly
[ In Reply To ..]Reading all the links on the internet there were some Bush haters, but I'm glad I came across a lot of other links that had some nice things to say about President Bush and the good things he did while President.
I think I said no president is perfect. Some people in Iraq were glad to be out from under Sadam. But I'm sure there are those who didn't like him just like there are those in Afganistan who don't like Obama.
Interesting obseration I read - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Today I read someone wrote:
"If you cheered when a reporter threw a shoe at Bush, but you booed when a reporter threw a question at Obama, you might be a liberal".
Just thought that was cute and obviously true.
That was an ignorant poster that doesn't... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]understand that true American patriots defend their president no matter their party from attacks both foreign and domestic.
Your statement is wrong - see message
[ In Reply To ..]Want to think again about what you called that poster. Cos I see it here. What YOU don't understand is true American Patriots defend their country and the constitution from terrorists both foreign and domestic.
Military Oath:
I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic...
They wrote domestic in for a reason. We, as true American Patriots protect the constitution and the office. Not a man, especially if he is not working for the country, but for our enemies (not saying Obama is of course, I'm using the "man" as a general statement, could be about Bush or Clinton or Regan or anyone who holds the office).
Also:
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
That doesn't say I pledge allegiance to Mr. Obama or Mr. Bush, no "to the Flag of the United States".
All of these were written for a reason. Everything is for the country and the Constitution. Not one man.
Besides, where was this loyalty when a shoe was thrown at Bush. No defending him I see.
That poster hit the nail right on the head.
Too bad the Imperial Wizard Obama has no - interest in the oath he took
[ In Reply To ..]Imperial Wizard never misses an opportunity to trash America - a lot like the libs on this board. "Move to Somalia, I hear it's beautiful this time of year." Source: Misguided liberal/socialist on this board that is not nearly as funny to others as she is inside her own head.
Interesting obsveration I read - And accurate
[ In Reply To ..]Not to mention the rude treatment Regan got during amnesty news conference. Bad behavior is acceptable by liberals because most of it comes from liberals; otherwise, they would be on a steady diet of eating their own.

corrupt machine politician in the worst Chicago mold. He used the IRS to silence his enemies, and the Justice Department to protect his friends. His two major "achievements" — a health care law that doesn't work and a deal that increased the power and prestige of the terrorist state of Iran — were built on lies to the public and manipulation of the press. And that's according to his own allies! Only the leftist bias and racial pathology of the media kept his administration from bei ...
