Good Grief!

Isn't there any mechanism for this poor, beaten-down,emasculated remnant to be sent home to TX early before he does any more of obambi’s bidding?

All this marxist crap he has been spewing out.....no wonder he can't find time to pardon a couple of rail-roaded American border agents!

I try to be an optimist, but I’m getting the feeling America as we know it is truly screwed.

Arctic issues, she said, need to be handled with "a collective approach."

That "collective" is being pushed a lot lately.

Lock and load FRiends...

Great, so we will be able to lay claim to more resources that we won’t allow ourselves to produce.

Why is this a good thing? If we let Russia claim them at least they would be produced and put on the global market.

Yes, but you'll be told by those that worship big government politicians he's a real nice honorable guy.

I offer up this thread as still another reason why people, who consistently and constantly proclaim that within a short period of time we are going to wish we had Bush back, are dead flat out incredibly wrong.

Bush is a misguided New World Order wonk, just like his dad.

If the open borders didn’t seem like a clue to you all, you just weren’t tuned in.

Here bush fronts for the LOST treaty, the number one desire of the United Nations, an assured income stream from which to finance it’s real agenda.

This is the last thing a Conservative would advocate.

Is Freedom our desire as a sovereign nation, or do we wish to be lead by a ring in the nose by the United Nations? Touch call huh... evidently for Senior Buuuuuush, esta es.

Call me ignorant....what does this all mean? Why is this a case of national sovereignty in question.

I honestly don’t know so I’m looking for a answer, not a flame.

If the U.N. gains control of the seas, something it has been desperately seeking for a long time, it will be able to charge taxes on goods shipped on the seas. It will be able to tax energy products taken from the seas. It will be able to give or deny permission for the seas to be used in the manner our Navy has used it for well over 200 years. It will be in a position to control any energy production using currents of the seas, or other methods. It will be able to regulate fishing on the high seas. It will regulate what territorial waters are. There are a host of issues here.

It will put all nations in a subservient position. The United Nations will be the highest authority regarding use of the seas.

Nations that do not comply with it’s directives, will be subject to sanctions.

Our fearless leader not only doesn’t see the problem with this, he didn’t take measures to get us out of this filthy organization when he had the chance. Now he actually advocates for such a plan.

This man needs to step down now. Seriously, he is going to screw our nation into the ground over the next week, so Obama can start off with a clean slate.

The Republicans are now the ones supporting this agenda. It’s sickening.

Bush gives the US a final “screw you” before leaving office to fret over his sick legacy.

He was as big a fraud as is Obama. Yep, the torch was passed alright, the torch that burns the US dream to the ground.
