Does Obama think anyone is going to forget this temper tantrum when it’s over?

Do the leaders of the Democrat party have the authority to replace the traitor in the WH? What is the procedure for replacing an unfit-to-lead President?

It’s worth remembering that the federal government didn’t implement the original Amber Alert, Governor George W. Bush did in Texas.

Then other states followed. Pretty soon, 50 states had set up their own Amber Alert systems and interfaces together.

Later, when Bush won the Presidency, the program was nationalized.

The above means some things, though.

For one thing, the states can fund the Amber Alert system again if the feds can’t.

For another, states can get things done nationally without the federal government.

That’s how CCW laws went national, after all, one state at a time.

He is hoping to be able to make a huge media circus over all the pain caused by the tea party.

The leaders and contributors to the democrat party could remove/replace or shut down this human vermin with hours.
They haven’t and won’t.
They are in agreement with him. So is his media.

The national level dimrats want a collapse so as to rebuild the country in their image of power and control. Because there won’t be elections that we would recognize after that.

this is actually a sign of weakness, it’s a sign that obama knows that the shutdown is not having much impact so he has to artificially try to ramp up the pain

He’s too stupid to realize how bad this makes him look.

Did he arrest any priests today?

This reminds me of local news a couple years back.

At the ten PM break, they blurt out “Local community urged to boil water. Details at 11”

I was boiling mad! So some kid might get E-coli or whatever and die, and you ONLY care about keeping people in suspense so you can boost your damn ratings at 11?

Turned out to be not so bad, but I was furious for a week!
All they had to do was (name the community) should boil water details at 11!!!!

How much does amber alert system cost?

If the GOPe didn’t have it’s head up it’s collective butts they would trot out kids saved via Amber Alerts and their grateful parents.

Of course, the libs would hire profesional actors and if caught the MSM would spin it as they were informing the public of the programs importance.

I read about the Amber shut down here, along with the others.

It was on FR very early on the 5th:  Amber Alert System Down Due to Lapses in Federal Funding

He’ll just say “the Republicans made me do it”. And at least 1/2 the people will either agree, won’t know, won’t care.

They’ll see the most powerful man in the world as a victim. that’s what he is counting on. After all, they think they’re winning.

Being a kid is tough under obama. If you don’t get aborted, you’re forced to eat garbage in the indoctrination center, get arrested for pointing your finger, totally ignored if abducted, or denied your medicine if you have cancer.
