I thought it was quite clear, 0bama said he would resign over something as trivial as photos of him in his boxers, but he is running for reelection even though his failed policies have caused the nation about $4 trillion in debt, and started a useless and foolish war with Libya.

Which do you see is the bigger failure? I thought the left could care less about issues of morality or the sexual peccadilloes of politicians. that is of course if you can take of your politically partisan glasses for a bit.

Most politicians fail at oh so many things and continue on. Look at Bush.

I know you're just looking for a bash party and you seemed to have found one with yourself but your correlations here are kind of weak. But party on dude...

Weak?

It was 0bama who said tweeting photos was so egregious an act, that he would resign. As far as reasons to resign go, I think wrecking the economy with failed policies trumps a couple of silly photos that were sent to an adult woman.

Still very silly. If we are to make your case, just about every President should resign. I'm sure you don't see it that way though, do you? By the way, the economy was wrecked long ago.

Maybe Breitbart can sneak into the White House, slither under the bathroom door and snap
a photo of Obama's penis and then post it on twit box....

I'm thinking every POTUS, hell every politician..every person, has failed plans and policies. Only idiots take those kinds of pics and send them over the internet or phones. Seriously...does ANYONE still this they will forever remain private? If so, resign from everything now because once you have shown yourself to be an idiot you loose..

Long ago? We had years of low unemployment, since 0bama has been president we have a future of high unemployment, and he has equaled Bush's eight years of deficits into three of 0bama's.

Remember, it was 0bama who said he would resign over something as silly as photos of him in his boxers, he set the bar, not I.
