They all have oversight I am sure. Yes plenty w/ billions. Just go look em up.

Although a bunch of smaller funds invested doesn't make much difference. Still adds up to billions and trillions. Just a bit harder to track and add up.

Did Obama also order that OBL's body was to be dumped into the ocean without a trace?

lol. Mighty convenient of him.

Has anyone considered that maybe Bin Laden was simply used to prop up a failing administration?

Let's be honest; when's the last time a President had so many alligations and scandals? There's something new every week. When I think back on scandals, it's always ONE (1). Reagan/Contras, Nixon/Watergate, Clinton/Hummer in the OO, Hillary/Whitewater, Kennedy/Marilyn Monroe, Johnson/Viet Nam, GW Bush/Iraq.... I mean seriously, I'm running out of pencil lead counting up Obama's scandals. I think there's an unwritten law that a president is allowed one. Obama is out to prove that there are no limits.



This scene comes to mind when I think about the Obama administration.

And what really scares me is that he must believe it's 2008 all over again. He could play all of his commercials and dust off his signs, and nobody would even know the difference. I can't wait for him to compare Romney to Bush.

False. In reality, Obama recreated the intelligence agencies tasked with finding Bin Laden, years after GWB had them disbanded. He also ordered the successful raid on Bin Laden's compound.

This has to be, without a doubt, the most narcissistic individual ever placed in the white house. When our nations elderly realize he pulled a fast one after their Advantage plans take a dump they are going to be pi$$ed and they should be.

Can we get back on track? LOL.. Maybe I should have started a thread asking for clips showing his narcissistic behavior or clips where he claims credit for things he had nothing to do with..That should be pretty easy.. Simply find every public speech the guy made in the last 3 1/1 years and your golden.

Yep, I've actually made that plausible argument here because Bin Laden has never been found guilty in a court of law, and following our laws, he was executed as an "innocent" man..

But, lets also be real because it would be very difficult to find a single american who wouldnt have done the exact same thing Obama did.

You know, if Obama were a white man, everyone would be applauding him. Please, everyone, pull the curtain away from the thinly veiled racism you are exhibiting.

and for everyone who just wants to disagree just to disagree, I would put it to you: Put your name in the hat and try to get elected AND DO BETTER THEN OBAMA HAS.

I can't argue with results. And the fact of the matter is, that we had BUSH for 8 years and he couldn't get close to Bin Laden. OBAMA was in office and the people responsible that he IS COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF found him in 3 years.
