OBAMA, BOB MENENDEZ FIGHT OVER IRAN SANCTIONS GETS PERSONAL
BreitBart ^ | 16 Jan 15 | Dan Reihl

Posted on 01/24/2015 7:25:57 AM PST by LSUfan

Everyone involved seems to be trying to put the best face on it, but Barack Obama went so far as to suggest senior Democrats like Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ), who take a hard line on Iran, are doing so purely to appease their donors.

Obama said that as a former senator himself, he understood how outside forces — like special interests and donors — can influence senators to act, one of the senators recounted.

No balls Demon Rats.

They’ve kissed Obamugabe’s hind end for 6+ years.

Like they worshipped at the feet of the Clintoons.

Schizophrenic and moronic behavior from the political class.

If Brady’s lying it’s about a FOOTBALL! Hardly a matter of national security or survival. And note that his football is not the nuclear one.

I asked on a different thread, the same basic question-except I was wondering are his family/ancestors Shiite or Sunni?

Well stated question. The Grand Kenyan’s end game is coming into focus. As a Marxist Muzzie he loves the Cuban model which, because of their half century isolation, is the best example around. Equally shared misery is the goal except for the exempt top floor dimokrats. His constant fight against modernity in every thing he touches and his perenial support of muzzies and migration pretty much completes the picture. If you understand this you’ll understand everything he does/doesn’t do.

To: willywill; All

can someone please explain to me, why, if Republicans/conservatives value our military so, they would let a CAIR supporting man named Grover Norquist, married to a Palestinian, talk everyone into signing the kind of anti tax pledge that has resulted in our military being crippled and hamstrung by the Sequester. And why everyone seems more worried about Obama’s muslim tendencies than those of Norquist? Are they in secret cahoots or something??

Some people are still alive only because it's illegal to kill them.

This was a transparently bigoted, anti-semitic statement from Obama...


That’s worth repeating.

Obama is not a fan of Israel but he is a fan of the Muslims who want to take out Israel and the US.

“Obama said that as a former senator himself”

All we really know for sure was that he was "present" . . .

Obama’s vicious tirades in 2009 against Wall Street were reminiscent of Joseph Goebbels at his shrillest. Though in Obama’s case when he wasn't vilifying the financial sector he was quietly begging them for money.

Menendez is a bit of a foreign policy conservative, he was on Cuba and apparently is on Iran, probably other matters. That is established.

“....Persian Empire is in the making and obola clearly wants that to happen. ...”

And who will be the 300 Spartans to resist said Persian empire?

the obambam was raised and trained in indonesia [sunni]and he did bow to the king of mecca too......

if/when the mullahs get a nuke, they WILL hit Israel...

then the obambam can use US power to crush the shia...

kills three of his avowed enemies without losing the first sunni terrorist warrior...

just speculation of course...

I guess fantasies will have no place in the real world.

Sagar,

Not fantasy, just an analogy.

The Iranian nutjob in charge wants to revive the empire of the Persians.

Some of the West want to emulate the Athenians ....

Who will emulate the Spartans?????

Who will say, “thus far, and no farther?”
