Obama just gave the order to send our guys into Syria to get another big fish terrorist. He's dead. Along with a dozen other terrorists. No American losses.

LOL! Soon we'll have a fine selection of presidential hopefuls, God save us.
"20 lunatics" in one illusion party, and a pay-for-play former secretary of state in the other illusion party. Glad I won't voting for any of those in the next staged election. It's sorta like pro wrestling. The outcome has already been decided.
As a member of the loyal opposition, I respectfully disagree - but that was damn literary of you. You should set that to music.
While we're tying up loose ends: I'm still thoroughly disgruntled with Mr. Obama. Wouldn't want to lead you folks off topic.

To understand the living, you got to commune with the dead.

When my son was 17, his political science class was spending time discussing Obamacare. My son volunteered me to come in and speak to the class as I am ACA certified and could bring some real world perspective to the discussion. His teacher was all in until he found out I was a conservative and then cancelled the visit. Too bad for the class as I have made it a career to NOT politicize the Obamacare discussion as I never know the political tendencies of potential clients.
To my Father. Even though you have crossed the plane, you will always be with me.
You were not just my Father, but my hero. My life has been a poor attempt to be like you
You taught me music, vocals, and how to fight. I can only hope I am half the man you are
When I close my eyes I can see you. And finally, Thank you Dad. for everything.

But that is as of today and doesn't take into account the popularity of the past president at the same time in their presidency. Still surprising that both Bush's have a higher approval rating today than Obama does. I guess it is easier on your popularity when your no longer in charge.

I debated about putting this in the health insurance thread or the Obama thread but I decided this article speaks more about him than Obamacare. Background: The Supreme Court will decide this month whether people who but their insurance through the federal exchange are elligible for subsidies. In the laws text, it states that subsidies will be available through state exchanges. Since some states didn't set up an exchange, the people had to go through the federal exchange but no where in the text does it extend the subsidy system beyond the states. That is what the SC has to decide.
So at the G7 Obama addresses this and completely lies about Obamacare as if this is circa 2006-2010 when he was selling it to the US.
- "President Barack Obama said Monday in Germany that his signature medical insurance reform law 'is working' as advertised. "
Bullshit! Didn't we go through this during the first open enrollment when democrats, republicans and even Obama himself said it didn't work as advertised
- 'There is no reason why the existing exchanges should be overturned through a court case,' Obama said
The case the SC is hearing says nothing about over turning the state exchanges.
- 'What's more, the thing is working. I mean, part of what's bizarre about this whole thing is we haven't had a lot of conversation about the horrors of Obamacare, because none of them have come to pass.'
What??? People losing their doctors, people who can't get a subsidy having their policies go up 40% or more, can't enroll because of the website malfunctions, huge deductibles, prescriptions getting effed up etc....
- The law, he insisted, 'hasn't had an adverse effect on people who already had health insurance.'
See bullet point #3
I guess if he gives a speech in a foreign country he thinks no one here will pay attention.

I'm apolitical, and seldom post on these types of threads, but here goes.
I love the United States; I still cry when I read the lyrics of the Star Spangled Banner and I don't appreciate people from other countries bad mouthing her or anyone abusing her flag, but I hate the government, and I'm not especially fond of Barack Obama, but I am disgusted by some of the remarks I've read about him on FB. I mean shesh, I loathe Richard Nixon but I would never call him a "Crackhead, homosexual foreigner," or compare him to Hitler (I've lost friends over this one) or wish somebody would assassinate him. The End.

The Congressional Black Caucus was organized back in the 1970's.

What a great speech he did in South Carolina today.

BO knows how to perform to his audience, whatever the demographic may be, provided he has a friendly audience. I was amused when he described Amazing Grace as a hymnal. That illustrates the ignorance of him and/or his speech writers. A hymnal is a book containing hymns. Amazing Grace is a hymn. BO put on a great show, even to the extent of changing his vocal cadence and flourishes some to match his venue.
Donald Trump giving the eulogy would have been lots better.
Trump's steaming comb-over glue fumes might create a super-saturated solution in air of the closed room, killing everyone in the room, then the police who show up to investigate would drop dead, they fumes would get outside, waft over the city where everyone would die. Eventually a weaker version would turn the populace into Trump-Walkers, who roam the countryside looking for extensions and weaves to eat. As it infiltrates the ground water, it would create a tenacious growth on all foliage, a sub-species of insecticide would be harvested by monsanto and all we would have left would be vegan squirrels.
Trumps been in the race for what, 2 weeks and his big mouth has already cost him millions. He's a cartoon character.
Glad to see he had a nice past week.

I'm didn't think saying hymnal was ignorant (though I am aware that is the book with the hymns in it) I figured it was just a mistake, as people make. He's not going to be perfect all the time, even with writers, especially at an emotional event. It's like when I use "me" or "I" incorrectly. I know the difference. I silently correct other people who use either incorrectly. It doesn't happen to me often, and I always notice it, but it's already been said and I realize I sound like an idiot to some. Shit happens.
Trump is God's gift to comedians everywhere . . . I'm sure they are all pulling for him to stay in the race until the bitter end.
Yes, I am reminded a little of Kennedy's Berlin speech and the still circulating urban legend that when he said "Ich bin _ein_ Berliner!", people were confused because he used the definite article and thought he was claiming to be a jelly doughnut. Completely ignoring the fact that jelly doughnuts, which are called "Berliner" in other parts of Germany, are actually called "Pfannkuechen" (verbatim, "pancakes") in Berlin. Like Kennedy's speech, I also think this will be seen as a defining moment in Obama's presidency.
On December 1, 1982, at a banquet in Brazil, President Ronald Reagan offered a toast to Brazilian President Figueiredo and “to the people of Bolivia.”

just wait until another Bush is in power(hope it never happens)
You Americans will miss Barack

Well, this is my two cents garnered from my facebook stream. Remember how much people hated W? And after Obama went into office those very people started hating him and talking about what a wonderful president W had been and wished he'd had a third term. SO. When another president--a Bush or not--comes into office the Obama haters are going to start whining about what a horrible president we have and how they wish Obama was still in office.
