Obama: taking the gloves off at last — 8 Comments

  1. Okay, so you made a couple of mistakes. It is believed that most, if not all of your followers would forgive these and more while being mindful of that one big redemptive move you made so long ago—–severing your previous political affiliation. And coming to your senses.

  2. Everybody on main street flyover country has the empty chair narcissist’s number. Evacuate the NE and left coasts and come to the real America in order to actually live free, prosper, and tilt the electoral game board. Yes, the weather is extreme, but you will find friendly, hard working neighbors.

  3. neo – Actually, you were right the first time. The Democrats gained 8 House seats in 2012, and 2 Senate seats.

    (Wikipedia has fairly good summary articles on those elections.)

  4. Yes, Neo: He’s announced for all to know that strategy, plans, etc. for the coming “liberation” of Mosul. And, today we hear that he’s agreeing to give the Iranians nukes in a few years. The laugh-track in Tehran is at full volume.

    But, do not worry, Obama loves America.

  5. Jim Miller:

    I had forgotten the exact figures, although I knew the change wasn’t significant enough to represent a change of party control for either body.

  6. neo – Those senate losses were too painful for me to forget. In 2012, the Republicans should have picked up a seat or two, net, at least. (They were running against the 2006 class.)

    By losing two, they put themselves in such a hole that it wasn’t until very near the end in 2014 that I thought they would take control.

  7. Putin will roll up the part of the Ukraine he wants in the next three months. The cease fire is a joke.

    And Iran will have nuke material within two years.

    Actually, Obama seems to agree with you! It’s reported that 800 Somali’s are being shipped into the Minneapolis area every month, and that isn’t including all the Syrian refugees. Here’s a good link to see what’s happening with refugee placement; “Refugee Resettlement Watch” – http://bit.ly/1AFBQg7

    Ten years ago I moved to a modest city on the upper plains, known for it’s Norwegian population. Now, however, the deep black of Africa and the dark brown of the Middle East can be seen everywhere – especially at the clinics and social service offices. Every night there seems to be strong arm robberies now, whereas 7-8 years ago there were seldom any robberies in the winter time – it was just to darned cold to be going outside to rob someone.

    Obama isn’t done remodeling America into a more acceptable paradigm (in his imagination). The big problem I see is that there are thousands upon thousands of people who agree with his view of how America ‘should’ be. It’s not a pretty picture to contemplate. I sometimes think that if people can just be placed in a position to realize there is something better than the Nanny State the Liberal Progressives offer, perhaps then they will turn away from this lemming race into oblivion.

    I can say one thing really positive though, this is still America where I live. No slums (yet), most people work hard and we’re a gun culture – unlike some parts of the East or West Coast.
