Barky is nothing more than a juvenile delinquent and revels in getting even.

[jsanders2001]

At one point the Obama’s will need the police for something and I’m betting the response time may be a little slower and their investigations may go unsolved when they drag on forever

34 days until this illegal alien and his trans-sexual wife get the hell out of our White House

Is there any way to shut him the hell up?

[marktwain]

I warned the establishment that ostracizing the police and military was a bad idea.

They did not listen.

We got Trump.

We got the better deal.

[AU72]

The Long Goodbye is going feel very long.

Not legally. With any luck, he will continue to shrink the Democrat brand.

[Fungi]

This childish buffoon has done nothing but kick the entire country in the teeth during his entire sinecure. This child is a disgrace, one the entire country will regret for a long time.

[nobamanomore]

I think in a dark way, that Obama was a blessing. He let the American people see what direction true hard core leftism leads. They rejected him.

[dsrtsage]

“Seen as”?

More like “Intentionally Is”

[kaehurowing]

Obama did a good job of further being a jackass today.

[heterosupremacist]

"Debo Adegbile" ~ surely a trustworthy American patriot!

[Iron Munro]

From the article:

The Obama administration announced on Thursday that it was nominating Adegbile for a six-year term on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.

Characterizing it as a nomination seems to imply that some further action is required to approve the nomination before Adegbile is actually appointed to the position.

Is that correct?

[pepsi_junkie]

Obama’s decision to appoint Debo Adegbile, a top lawyer for cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal whose nomination to the Justice Department was rejected by the Senate in 2014, to a federal commission was met with harsh criticism from Sen. Pat Toomey (R., Pa.) and a top official at the nation’s largest police union, who called it a “kick in the teeth to the cops.”

Imagine how they'll feel when Obama pardons Mumia.

[KyCats]

No. I think it goes something like this:

The dems get to pick 3 and the pubs get to pick 3. Can’t veto or fire the other side’s selection.

[Major Matt Mason]

More juvenile, in-your-face buggery from President-Reject Obama.

[butlerweave]

this nomination does not require approval from the Senate

does that mean Trump can Fire him

[bigredkitty1]

President-Elect Donald J. Trump will be cleaning house. This piece of filth better not get too comfortable.

[Phil DiBasquette]

Mumia and Shakur will be pardoned, bet the ranch
