IMPEACH that usurping SOB and hang him for treason!

Oil? We don' need no stinkin' oil!

Euwww, oil is s-o-o-o 20th century.

As President I can create all the wind power needed to run a fair and equal economy.

the manchild messiah needs to be impeached and tried for treason.

If these islands belong to Alaska now, where in the Constitution does the fedgov get the power to dispose of them and give them to a foreign power?

Where?

This OUGHT to be Obama’s waterloo moment, but I have this feeling it won’t be.

We are now the SOMNAMBULENT NATION, sleepwalking through our own destruction, a nightmare we seem unwilling to awake from.

To hell with the oil; check for cold loving algae(sarcasm directed at President Pond Scum)...

I'm trying to rationalize this myself. Since the power to acquire territory is considered inherent, maybe he thinks that inherent power works in reverse? I can't believe I'm writing this, but I miss Bill Clinton.

OK, this is like the 7th time it has been posted, and it is very misleading.

The Department of State has NEVER recognized any claim on these islands, and one of them was home to a small Soviet Colony from 1926 onward, as well as a small Soviet Airbase, and Early Warning Radar site in to the late 70’s.

These are Russia’s, already ceded by a treaty the Russians haven’t approved, for something like 20 years.

and America takes another one in the........

No, it won’t be. The fools, idoits,American haters, and parasites now outnumber the sane people and producers. And they love and worship him. Their only critism of him is that he isn’t moving fast enough to destroy the United States.

The resulting U.S.-U.S.S.R. Maritime Boundary Treaty was passed by the Senate and ratified by former President George Bush in 1991. Russia, however, never ratified the treaty because its leaders complained that the U.S.S.R. didn’t benefit enough from it.

Nevertheless, former U.S. Secretary of State Jim Baker and the Soviet Union’s Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze signed a secretive executive agreement the year before that bound both governments to the treaty.

This is no surprise! We are in the midst of a complete commie takeover. If Bam gets reelected the move will be to remove the two term restriction for POTUS. Our children and grandchildren will be viewing an American flag with a hammer & sickle on it . This coming after a return to the welfare state, attacks on the 1st and 2nd amendment, refusal to drill to enhance the economy and on and on.

What Constitution? obama threw the Constitution out the window the day he assumed power.

This is from 10 days ago???

And we're worried about George Snuffleupagus's access to condoms?

The media made fun of Sarah Palin when she said you could see Russia from Alaska, now she can say that parts of Russia use to be Alaska.

[Russ]

I couldn’t agree more. And all the while the Republicans in the House and Senate will hide in the tall grass and the candidates will endlessly debate gay marriage and religion. Who’s really to balme, Obama or our inability to mount any kind of attack on him?

SARAH WHERE ARE YOU, BRING IT TO LIGHT!!!!
