…neither have we.
As a petulant Poser in the White House whines about his petty protocol, the Prime Minister of Israel worries about a suicidal terror-state going nuclear on his country.
(And Deroy Murdock makes a great point…Obama doesn’t consult Congress when he wants to skirt the law…he should be familiar with the ‘evasion’ concept.)
BlueCollar suggests Netanyahu has the edge in any ‘concern-meter’ standings.
Let Us Be Clear…Israel’s survival trumps Obama’s feelings.
PERIOD. FULL STOP.
Obama’s UN ambassador now justifies allowing the world’s most active terror-state to acquire nuclear capabilities, saying it’s not achievable or realistic to stop them.
By that logic, why try to stop LA street gangs from acquiring .50-cal chainguns? Why try to stop Mexican drug cartels from getting Hellfire missiles?
Short answer…because Evil cannot be allowed to get MORE LETHAL.
Can it be Obama’s team just admitted they’re not up to it, or W did the impossible?
Hint: why doesn’t Obama call former President George W Bush, and ask for help? W can give him pointers…on how he convinced Libya to forego nuclear efforts.
Msg. to Obama…the first step to recovery is admitting there’s a problem.
Obamacare…the Democrat gift that keeps on taking.
Gushing over the Bronze plan, HHS Secretary Burwell reveals the Liberal mindset.
But Investor’s Business Daily crunched the numbers on the ‘Success Story’ of hers, and the example Burwell used gets UGLY if that family incurs any serious illness.
Seems that family of four with $38.3k annual income faces a $12,600 deductible.
Only a Liberal can see a potential loss of 1/3 of a years pay as a ‘success story’.
Yes – the Supreme Court ruling against Obamacare’s illegal subsidies ‘won’t be a disaster’…but the way Republicans handle it from that point might be.
This week the Supreme Court will hear Obama lawyers try to explain how it’s okay for the federal govt to give subsidies to consumers in states using fed exchanges.
(O’care’s adviser Gruber openly bragged about coercion used against GOP states by adding language withholding consumer subsidies if states didn’t set them up. Now he says that language doesn’t mean what he said it means…yeah, right.)
It’s pretty obvious the subsidy rule in Obamacare was coercive, deliberately written to force states into setting up their own exchanges (thus bearing the brunt of cost).
But, if the Supreme Court rules Obama’s HHS is doling out subsidies illegally, and must discontinue that practice, shutting off that subsidy spigot will be blamed on…
…Republicans (it was GOP-run states that refused to set up the exchanges).
Democrats won’t be blamed, even though they wrote the law in the first place.
Democrats won’t be blamed, even though they passed it without one GOP vote.
Democrats won’t be blamed – they broke their own law, to give people subsidies.
Democrats wrote bad law (deliberately)…
…broke that law (deliberately)…
…and can now put the blame on Republicans…
…for inflicting Democrat law! (Damned if they do…)
The best way to stop the ‘blame Republicans’ scenario is full repeal of O’care.
Until that happens, it would be advisable for Republicans to strap in.
(DAMNED…IF THEY DON’T.)
Emailed protests assert references of an ‘Affirmative Action presidency’ are racist.
What else can it be called, when a community organizer with no business or political leadership experience and zero foreign policy skills is elected to the presidency?
Labeling a lowering of standards as ‘Affirmative Action’ is not racist.
(After all, that’s the classic definition of Affirmative Action.)
What’s racist is the fact that lowered standards enabled his election.
The Attorney General wants to lower standards for proving civil rights offenses.
What else is new?
For Democrats, nothing defines Affirmative Action better than lower standards, and nothing more clearly reveals the Obama administration for what it is.
Standards were lowered for qualifications of a President…and cabinet posts;
Standards were lowered for burden of proof when black thugs defied the law;
Standards were lowered for qualifying Gitmo detainees as ‘not terror risks’;
Standards were even lowered for qualifications to be an American citizen.
‘Lowered standards’ is what Obama and Holder are all about.
In AG Holder’s America, where military-garbed Black Panthers brandish nightsticks and threaten white voters on election day with impunity, are we surprised?
Over the last six years, Americans have lived Affirmative Action…every day.
Obama’s Treasury Dept. gave health insurers $3 billion of your money last year.
Just one BIG problem – that money wasn’t authorized by Congress to be used.
Congress refused to allow the appropriation for those payments…he did it anyway.
And Obama’s minions won’t say where the money came from.
Until Obama’s toadies disclose the source for this illegal spending, it’s fair to ask…
…how many veterans or children will die, because of $3 billion diverted from their programs…so Obama can enrich fat-cat insurance companies?
Now it’s being reported Obama’s using an executive action to ban bullets. Without bullets, a gun becomes little more than a hammer.
And his FCC just imposed Internet regulations that have serious consequences, yet refuses to let anyone know what’s in the language of those regulations.
Unconstitutional as his actions are, a gutless GOP won’t do what needs to be done to stop him…the only thing that will stop him: impeachment.
Short of that, all they can do is de-fang him…as noted in our previous post.
Obama threatened consequences for border agents who don’t follow his lawless executive amnesty action, even though a Federal court has stayed that order.
But in Obama’s eyes, agents are breaking the law…if they refuse to break the law!
He will get away with it – GOP congressional members are cowed by his supporters. They do not want to be branded as ‘racist’, and refuse to consider impeachment.
So, some are calling for a ‘Convention of States’ (U.S. Constitution, Art. V) to create an amendment that will help stop Obama’s lawlessness…
…but how does creating another Constitutional amendment force Obama to obey a Constitution he’s currently in the process of deliberately shredding?
Remember, he swore to ‘PRESERVE, PROTECT, and DEFEND’ it…by no stretch of the imagination can anyone claim he is obeying his sworn oath.
A ‘Convention of States’, to create an amendment he will ignore anyway, is futile. His actions demonstrate that futility…with impeachment off the table, what now?
How else can one control a lawless President…who controls the Justice Dept?
Here’s a thought: Congress has the power “to constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court.” (U. S. Constitution, Article I, section 8, clause 9.)
Create a Congressional Court with full legal powers and enforcement, controlled by the Congress, to prosecute, fine, and jail directors of government branches who fail to properly carry out established laws of the land.
Leave Obama alone…but take away the minions willing to do his lawless bidding.
Throw a few of them in jail, and their replacements will think twice about following.
Obama may be untouchable…but his toadies aren’t.
Obama-philes have played the ‘race’ card anytime someone opposes his policies.
No reasoned argument is acceptable – opposition is because Obama’s black. It’s especially effective for shutting down dissenters who are using inconvenient truth.
But if it’s fair to say it’s merely ‘racism’ that motivates opposing Obama’s policies…
…it’s also fair to say that it’s merely ‘racism’ that motivates supporting his policies.
