I don't think it's disinterest. I think most people are waiting to see what the truth actually is, because the far right end of the R party has ranted over NOTHING so often, and then been proved completely wrong, that pretty much no one except those on the fringe believe anything they say anymore. They have zero credibility.

We are not in that worse case scenario.
Sorry, but the accepted rule of online political debate is that once you compare your opponent to Hitler, you've lost. Deal with it.

Absolutely.

Which is why I'd never do it.

I don't bother trying to "protect" the president. He's able to take care of business w/o my input.

But even that doesn't work, so they resort to childish play ground antics with name calling.
Let's revisit all the sturm und drang the Pubs are generating over these "scandals" in 12 months and see exactly who has playing silly, counterproductive political games rather than addressing real issues, OK?

Of course, once these current fluffy little trifles blow over, you guys can revert to your default birth certificate obsession.

That one's kinda fun.

And the information and informants keep coming forth and the details continue to come out. And the Obama supporters continue to be in denial that anything is amiss. Deny it and it will go away. Shout down the opposition. But as I said before, even if it was proven beyond a doubt that there was substance to these "scandels" and it was tied directly to the nation's administration, they would never resign. Too arrogant. Too much in denial. Too relative as to what true "right and wrong" are. It would do no good to impeach him with an attitude like that. It is like the Clinton Administration of the 90s. Clinton was like a modern day Houdini, you could wrap him up in scandels, sink him in a sea of falsehoods and he would come right back up to the surface, smiling, thanks in part to the liberal media. Obama supporters, what will it take to make you see that something (and I don't mean involving the right either) has seriously gone wrong here?

American politics - takers versus makers.
In this round, the takers are catching heat for scandalous acts in furtherance of mass taking.
Recipients are feeling threatened - must rush to defend!
Makers are rising up in annoyance. Will the sheeple rise up on two legs?
Oh, the humanity!

Let's do a quick fact check on your claims, OK?
