When the US taxpayers pay to envelope you and your family in the world's most expensive personal security bubble, it's easy to be brave.
Some of us bomb fodder have to fly commercial, ride subways, and shop at large malls. Nice to know our commander-in-chief is willing to let us explode with our children to make a point to the French intellectuals and the New Zealand columnists.
Well Barry here is hoping that if one of these maniacs do attack us again that you are at ground zero to show us all how you "Uphold Our Values!"
Don’t you love how they throw out
“closing Gitmo will make us safer”
just as if it was an obvious truth,
and no one asks “how will that make us safer” (except blasphemers such as ourselves).
As you know, I don’t believe he is an atheist. I believe he knows God exists and is working against Him. In fact, I believe that he is part of LEGION(S) who are doing the same.
Sure, if you value being killed, your family bombed, and children used as suicide Murderers. Glad to know OholyO Stands for something. Death to America seems to be it.
It is better to look good, than be good.
I believe that’s a cultural thing.
$200 sneakers, $500 rims, $100 nails, $200 hair...
and living in gov’t housing.
Bambi and his puppet-master, Bill Ayers, are little Chicago players and not ready for the big world. Bambi thought it would be all about making a favorable impression on the Muslims and never considered two things: (a) what we were going to do with them once we released them and stopped their trials; and (b) the fact that he does not have dictatorial powers over the military or even the agencies. Obviously, some people on the inside have simply said no, because Obama doesn’t have the right to just sail out and issue orders when they contradict a policy that is established and even generally written; that’s why, for example, the CIA is still going to continue its rendition policy.
Obama really believed this was Kenya and that he could just give orders and it would all be done as he wished. And Bill Ayers thinks it’s Russia and the agencies are basically just like the KGB, the personal tools of the ruling individuals.
This reminds me of the British marching in red coats in straight rows as they “honorably” fought the colonists who often fought guerilla style. Failure to adapt to changing circumstances is a prime reason for extinction.
They would seem to include fraud and trashing the Constitution.
It’s pretty easy to prove that liberalism is doing Satan’s work.
Just step through the 10 commandments, especially the last 6 “horizontal” commandments.
Liberalism not only revels in breaking all of them, they encourage others to do so as well, and get the gov’t in on the game to force the rest of us to promote and monetarily support the breaking of God’s law also.
Here is my favorite Obama quote from that article:
“But what I can guarantee is that if we don’t uphold our Constitution and our values, that over time that will make us less safe.”
I wholeheartedly agree that we must uphold our Constitution. Does that mean when Obama chooses to ignore it, that he is trying to make our country less safe?
Who sent Obama, and who is he working for?
I think when he said “our values”, he was referring to the values of the muslims that he said he would stand with.
In one year,Gitmo will still be open,the press won’t cover it and the sop has been given to the leftie loons to shut them up.
This is a created non-issue that no one will care about in a year.It was just a hammer to hit Bush with and the ignorant masses fell for it.
And the Euro who tsk-tsked at Gitmo won’t take the prisoners.How unpredictable!Not.
You mark the date and check back in a year.
No kiddin.
Can you say “sacrifice”?
I knew you could.
Bottom line Barry is just making it up as he goes along. This is complete and utter BS of the highest order. He is clueless nothing more than a puppet of George Soros and the left-wing nut jobs that hate George W. Bush. If he thinks we will be safer by shutting down Gitmo then he is living in a very skued alternate reality that has nothing to do with keeping America safe from attack.
This is absolutely insane. The charming folks at Gitmo are enemy combatants in a global war. They wore no uniforms but rather insinuated themselves into civilian populations to spread terror, death and destruction. Most succeeded.
The fact that only the US has a facility like Gitmo reflects the fact that only the US has taken the war on global islamism even half-seriously, under Bush and Cheney.
We tend to forget that one of the greatest attributes of Bush and Cheney was that neither was a lawyer. Now we have two lawyers at the helm, neither with military experience, and the results are clear: they want to take a lawyerly approach to vicious, bloodthirsty enemy combatants, read them their Miranda rights, apply Geneva Convention niceties to them even though the plain language of the Convention specifically excludes their stealthy, cowardly ilk... and now this is “values”?
I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed a President jumping the shark so early and so spectacularly as Obama. The guy is just sans clue in every respect, and it shows. If the GOP cannot make 100-proof, kick-ass lemonade out of the lemons of this past election, we are truly beyond hope.
