A year ago, the right-wing was hammering Obama for using military power against Libya -- an action that cost no U.S. lives -- unlike Iraq. Now, they criticize him for not doing anything about violence in Syria, Egypt, Libya, and Iraq. Do they want to commit U.S. forces? Can't have it both ways but they do.
Re the bolded, ever hear of Trayvon Martin? Or do you just choose to ignore Obamas actions (or lack of actions) when you choose to?

As for the situation in the middle east, try reading the laws that Obama is violating by his inaction and push for status quo. Oh, never mind! You might actually learn something that could change your devotion to this wannabe demi-god.

What racist part are you even talking about?

That's right, make up your own set of facts.


Upset that someone else is taking your tactics to show how biased you are?

OK, you don't like what Obama is doing. What is your alternate policy for
Syria, Egypt, Libya, and Iraq?
As you lefties just love to proclaim, Obama was elected. Now when he continues to screw, you demand someone else provide answers to his problems. Way to go.

One thing Obama has done, I now look at Jimmy Carter in a more favorable light. He no longer gets to claim the title of worst president in my lifetime. That is now Obama's privilege.

He could have made some great points by speaking on these issues also and maybe gained some respect.

Something to the effect of "You all could have been me, but now you can't. You chose a bad path. So you were bored, huh? Read a book instead of killing people. You, too can be anything you want to all depending on the choices you make through your lives".

But instead there are crickets and the comments about him not giving a s@$t about a lot of things are just proven further.

This guy has wasted many leadership and teaching opportunities for this country.

Should the president have commented at all, is the quesiton?

I know how the left acts (here on CD), and becasue I spoke up, it's typical of the left to call people names...

Does it really matter that he commented? Why do you think he needs to comment on everything that happens in the world?

Maybe if he didn't simply pick and choose and appear one sides, it would be ok.

I get your point.

According to you. Yet you cannot and have not provided any actual argument in defense of your savior, only tries to ridicule any statement that makes you uncomfortable (like any comment that does not praise The One).

But, of course, this is what we have come to expect from those like you.
