Well then the obvious question arises. How can anyone be for turning over their healthcare to a bunch of politicians? How can anyone be for larger government, more bureaucracy?

I know some people are masochists and some are sadist and even some are sadomasochists but, gosh, you'd think it would get old at some point continually being a puppet and calling for more puppeteers.

I WISH they would really start to focus on improving the economy or do anything that might benefit the middle class. Endless investigations that go nowhere are just wasting my tax money and isn't helping the middle class one bit.

Go tea party.
Well apathy is a cancer on this society and apparently folks like yourself are waiting for something Devine to intervene for the cure.

Umbrellgate - was never even on the radar.
Benghazi - liberals should be the most curious considering there was a CIA annex in a foreign country that was virtual unknown before the attacks. Liberals wanted to know every detail about Bush's CIA secrets but with Obama "eh, nothing here to see, move along." Then of course you have weapons that we funneled to Libya that were used to kill an US Ambassador (the first since 1979) and liberals are once again, apathetic. Who cares? It's all a conspiracy theory... (Pathetically)

You want republicans to improve the economy? I thought the economy was moving right along and despite the screeching of a bunch of liberals about he imminent destruction of the country with an $85 billion/year cut to the budget it wasn't two months later that they were championing $500 billion in lost economic activity as pragmatic.

It's really quite pathetic and disturbing how liberals seem to have no needle in their moral compass.

Is that reverse psychology? Accuse the oppositition of the very action of the accuser?

Doing Nothing and waiting for "devine" intervention is kinda the Conservative right's forte...?

Who is blaming Obama and where are you getting that idea? People do want the answers, and yes, it is illegal to target any group, regardless as to their overall views, but right now, not many are directly blaming him. All we want is to know if he did know anything about this and if so, why didn't he stop it? Hopefully the truth will come out, more than likely, it never will. At best Holder is appearing everyday to be more involved in a lot of shady activities, the White House has no answers, other than to say: gee we doing know about this or that til we say it on TV, and these are all reasons to wonder, what is really going on? Goodbye Holder, if nothing else.

Exactly. What this reveals is that liberals have "no moral compass" or set of values, but only blind allegience to ONE MAN. Liberals tolerate killing US citizens with drones, auditing groups for political beliefs, and initiating government cover-ups to reveal mistakes during the Obama administration, but would be screaming at the top of their lungs for the same acts during a republican administration.

This reveals that it is not the action (or crime) that is an issue for liberal. It is the universal belief among libs that the rule of law does not equally apply to every citizen. In short, by their inconsistencies and lack of belief in the rule of law, the libs have become fascists. Witness how many of them actually applaud the IRS auditing and harassing conservatives- they think it is great!

Obama is going about the business of demonizing his political enemies, then hiring thugs to destroy them without regard to the law. Hardly a week goes by without an Obama attacking his political opponents or on the rich by which he means the men and women who actually built the businesses that created jobs, not the ones he and Michele hang with in Hollywood and on Martha's Vineyard. He urged Latino voters to help him "punish our enemies and reward our friends. He told his supporters at one rally to think of voting for him as "an act of revenge. Vote, vote, vote for revenge. Demonize your political enemies, then hire thugs, and the result is precisely what happened in Germany after 1933.

There will not be a document that links Obama directly to the IRS's targeting of conservative groups, or to the Justice Department's unprecedented legal actions against the Associated Press and Fox News reporter Rosen. Just like there is no document -- not one -- linking Hitler to the Holocaust. Why not? Because Hitler didn't need to sign a document. All he needed to do was to demonize his enemy in speeches, on the radio, and from one end of Germany to the other -- then hire people who know what he wants and will do what is needed to get the job done.

Listen to Obama, his speeches always demonize his opponents, in precisely the same way that Hitler and his fascists did it in Germany. Read your history books.

What sort of country we'd be living in if the president had gotten away with this.

Everything up to, and prior to, the big bang is Obama's fault.

Do you read anything or are you a simple Obama cheerleader. Listen to Obama, his speeches always demonize his opponents, in precisely the same way that Hitler and his fascists did it in Germany. Read your history books.

I used to wonder why the German Jews didn't flee. I now know why. No one believed the warnings, no one believed that one man can convince the masses to do what they did. No one imagined it could happen so quickly and so quietly.
