Am I the only one astounded by the overt strong arm tactics employed by Obama and his puppeteers? (racist, terrorists)

You meant to say To defend Obama...

FIFY, and you're welcome.

You don't like the majority (Dems) telling the minority (GOP) what to do.

The majority in the Senate makes the rules.

The majority in the Senate can change the rules.

If the GOP wants to abuse the filibuster rule, the Dems can abuse the reconciliation rule. Nothing illegal about it.

That's politics. Go win an election if you don't like it.

If you disagree have the GOP go get a good lawyer and tell it to the Judge.

Oh, the elections will prove out come November. And the only ones needing a judge will be the libs when they are screaming and crying come November about "rigged" elections. That'll be their only recourse, as usual, to shop their whining agenda to a court.

And the US government is tasked with this just WHERE in the Constitution? And this has benefitted the US how?

What end result? This is far from over, the end result may well be an Islamic state targetting the US as an enemy.

Funny how your outrage started on 20 Jan 2009 when a black, centrist man became president.

History did not start on that date.

Obama is NOT black. His momma is white as white can get.

Centrist, he doesn't even now where the center is, he just scammed you into thinking he did.

History did start on that date, its the date of the biggest mistake in American political history that we need to fix.

His performance or lack of performance is proof. His failures and poor decisions are proof.

The essence of your argument:

Damned if he does

Damned if he doesn't

There isnt a dam thing you can say to justify the war in Afghanistan that cant be said about Iraq..

I have noticed that about the Democrats...

Talking about the US, they use 'benefit those less fortunate' as justification for everything and anything, but when it comes down to international affairs, its all about 'me'...

selfish!!!

Don't they usually bribe members of the other party?
