What happened Obama.. caught in a lie AGAIN!
Yes -- but Obama just took an oath saying he would defend the Constitution and that is about as big a lie as he's ever told, he has no intention at all of defending the Constitution, he means to end it.

Yes, Biden and the majority of Senate Democrats voted for war then pretend like they didn't.
Based on faulty intelligence from the President (Bush). And Bush invaded the wrong country despite the UN and other agencies stating there was nothing in Iraq. But he had to use the excuse of "patriotism" and "Bin Laden" to start the Iraq War.

Wow, into a second term of Obama and the Obama losers are still talking about Bush. Since they will not acknowledge Obama then we can ignore everything Obama did including ObamaCare.

Cool!

The name 'Al-Qaeda' means 'the base'; there are currently dozens of groups with 'al-qaeda' in their name. It is perfectly possible for Obama to be right and wrong simultaneously in that the group that the US has always identified as 'Al-Qaeda' might well be in decline but there are others, which are part of the main, which are not.

Quote:
. . .There is no single al-Qaeda organisation in Africa, but many groups claim the name. It is a name that strikes terror, but often there is nothing in common among these "al-Qaeda" groups. In this sense, the many al-Qaedas of Africa are harder to defeat than one giant entity. And, if hard to defeat, it is impossible to have joint negotiations with them. Wars and their endings will have to be piece-meal. The ideological core of all who call themselves al-Qaeda is, however, a common one. There is a subscription to the austere and literalist teachings of Wahhabi Islam, a strict form of Sunni that arose in the deserts of Saudi Arabia in the 1700s. To this day, Wahhabi Islam has Saudi Arabia's clerical establishment as some kind of centre point. It was from Saudi Arabia that Osama Bin Laden took Wahhabi teachings to Afghanistan and found ready partnerships with the Taliban of the 1990s. In Afghanistan, Osama created al-Qaeda, the "Base" or the "Fortress". The first "Base" was bombed by the Americans, but many arose in its wake. . .

That statement is vile.

And exactly what were Democrats feeling with over 58,000 dead and over 153,000 wounded during the Vietnam War?

Get over it and accept it. FFS this schit is really old.

Hunker down and prepare for the worst. Bit*ching about it isn't going to stop the schit storm that is going to take on full speed starting this year.

Wow. If what you people are saying about your opposing parties are true it confirms my suspicions that BOTH parties suck and we need to have a party that actually gives a damn about us and not their own agendas. And no, the Tea Party isn't the answer either.
