Gee, I wonder if any of the cadets were thinking about this as they listened to this moron run his jaws?

For the first time in American history, live, before the future commanders of the greatest military on the face of the Earth, the true empty, void of conviction, void of America, queer-in-charge-of-nothing, was shown to the world.

Now, maybe we can find a way to get this THING out of office?

When was the last time we saw a poll on Barry’s approval/disapproval? Seems like quite awhile. I’ll bet those numbers are downright ugly.

But can they operate together as a team? Can they operate the high tech equipment? It will be a clusterbuck of the kind only the state is capable of.

Recently I saw a US Navy recruiting TV add that features a Wave dressed in full combat gear telling what the US Navy stands for. The two points that struck me was when she said the US Navy's mission is to protect and promote democracy around the world and to follow the orders given them. Maybe I'm being too critical but between the line implications don't cut it for me. She said nothing directly about serving with honor to protect our Constitution or the country. The following orders spiel sounded like she got that talking point directly from a traitor.

I just checked and the Galloping idiots have him at 43%

They show Bush at 32% at the same point in his presidency. Of course the media endlessly bashed Bush on Iraq, supposed lack of intelligence, and lying.

Plus, most of us that supported Bush were not blind followers like many of Obama’s lemmings. Most of us had issues with Bushes spending, Harriet Mires, not defending himself against the media and the left, not prosecuting many of the Clinton cronies, and not cleaning the leftist vermin out of the state department. In short, we conservatives are more honest.

Ya think? Did you see the faces of the poor schlubs he had standing behind him at Bagram AFB the other day?

“He’s killing the Democrat Party.”

They can still steal any election they want. Even in 2010, their heavyweights won with the exception of Feingold. They just gave up the guppies.

Ayn Rand delivered a speech to West Point cadets in 1974 and gave West Point permission to include her speech in a new Philosophy textbook. That speech is titled “Philosophy, who needs it” ... and it can be found at http://fare.tunes.org/liberty/library/pwni.html

He really has to get busy and develop his own military because this one isn’t going to shoot me.

He’s killing the Democrat Party.

did you forget the /sarc tag?

The RATs agenda is moving forward and accelerating.

Please tell me how that will be reversed?

Please tell me how the 100's of thousands of hard-core leftists that infest the bureaucracy will be thwarted?

Please tell me how (and when) the onerous EPA rules will be reversed?

Tell me how the very likelihood of 100% Amnesty (granted with the help of Boehner & McConnell)to 40million third world criminals will help our Republic maintain it's culture and language?

The left has been relentless and unstoppable -- Obama has little to fear.

One of the comments said it best;
“one man commanded respect, the other DEMANDED respect.”
That says it in a nutshell...

POTUS Obama is not in deep trouble...he is finished, failed and an instant “Lame Duck”!!!

I am astounded that you would type such. Can you see reality?

He is not by any means a "Lame Duck."

Over the next two years will do greater damage to our Republic than his previous 6.

He is working outside the Constitution working to destroy the very foundation of our Republic. "Lame Duck" can only apply to Presidents that respect the Constitution.

Please, tell me how he is a "Lame Duck." I am curious to know.

POTUS Obama is not in deep trouble...he is finished, failed and an instant “Lame Duck”!!!...If the rank & file Democrats had one iota of a brain....they would strut down to the White House and demand that he resign...immediately!!! They are too dumb...and won’t....and, they will go down with him politically!!!

The cabal that is behind Obama and, thru Valerie Jarrett, runs him,, has invested a great deal of time, effort and money to put him where he is. I have speculated that this cabal consists of a network of domestic Communists (e.g. William Ayers), with the monetary backing of the Muslim Brotherhood.

From their standpoint, the Obama administration has been a major success thus far. But they are still short of achieving a permanent crippling of the USA (or the Great Satan, depending on which side of the coalition we're talking about).

And, in that regard, Barack Obama has become a burden. He is no longer a useful tool. Indeed, his personal failure is now jeopardizing their entire enterprise.

At this point, Obama would be of value to them as a...martyr. And only as a martyr.

And, in the event, you know who will be blamed...

Personally, I would volunteer to be a human shield for the next 2 1/2 years.

There is NO election that the Dems cannot win by putting Free Sh** on the table. None.

They've set the table to win the next one with Student Loan Forgiveness.

Totally disagree with you!!! But....you are entitled to ur opinion!!! The one thing you are dead right about....Obama from day one was on a mission with his “hate America” Democrat traitor cohorts to destroy America and the American economy!!! It has been the plan all along!!! Problem is, his “hate America” Obamabots never vetted him out and discovered what a not-too-bright, untalented, loser...Obama is!!! I think we will have a clearer picture, after the Mid-Term elections of November, 2014 are in!!!

It was a painfully awkward speech to be sure, but we are reminded that 0bama isn’t, nor will he be, running for anything. He’s got the job and we’re stuck with him for the next couple of years. He can make all the clunkers he wants, it doesn’t matter except that he’s in Jimmuh Cahtah territory when it comes to credibility. And the last time I checked Jimmuh still gets quoted at length every time he opens his superannuated yap.

Obama is all about symbolism over substance. There is no substance at all, but the media do their best to help him pretend that the symbols he creates as needed actually matter in the real world.
