No. OThuga is not in charge.

But he is certainly a very useful idiot puppet.

I have been saying ever since Obamarx got elected that millions of people will die because of him. I pray that I am wrong but fear that I am not. He is weak and is a coward but thinks he is 100% correct. That is the recipe for disaster.

Left out if this is Latin America. A blow-up in the Carribean would certainly distract us from the Middle East:
1) A Chavez/Castro protege comes to power in Panama
2) Obama closes Gitmo and gives the base to Havana
3) Mexico collapses into chaos
4) FARC begins gaining ground in Columbia
5) Panama begins restricting US shipping through the canal
6) Bogota falls
7) Castro leases Gitmo to China and Russia
8) Oil embargo become oil blockade
9) War

“If Zero is doing what you’re accusing him of doing, of holding support for our troops in the field hostage to his getting his Fascist Healthcare package, then he deserves to be flogged out of the country. Where did you hear the ‘Rats are doing this?” ~ lentulusgracchus

I didn’t “hear” anything, I merely deduced what he’d be
doing based on what I kn ow about him and his Party’s priorities.

My opinion was backed up by Rush later in the day:

“White House sees war through prism of Obamacare.”

“..they are in fact making political calculations based on Obama’s health care bill. ..”

Excerpted from:

Gen. McChrystal vs. Gen. Biden
White House sees war through prism of Obamacare.

“..Petraeus, page two of this story, is a military superstar. He’s got the White House worried. Obama supposedly isn’t, but Democrat political aides fear the presidential qualifications of Petraeus. He hasn’t taken a public stand behind McChrystal yet, but he’s leaving that bit of politics to others. But clearly we’ve got a bunch of people in the White House in totally over their heads on this and they are in fact making political calculations based on Obama’s health care bill. ..”

Obambi said it himself not long ago.

Obama hasn’t responded to General McChrystal’s advice yet, has he?

UN Climate Reports: They Lie

A Poisonous Cocktail: Expanding the Community Reinvestment Act

450 Mayors Petition Obama To Adopt Broad Gun Reform Bloomboob & MAIG want to prosecute NICS "failures." Remember Ted Kennedy "failing" the no-fly list.

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

Wrong. The Chinese have been explicit in saying to one another and to us, for the last 40 years, that they can afford a general thermonuclear exchange, and still prevail.

They can say it, but they are wrong.

I fear their more likely strategy for finishing the United States is here.

IF that article/source is genuine.

Cheers!

[grey_whiskers]

Obama is acting like a total coward.

Bullsh*t.

He's NOT acting.

Cheers!

Obama must be realizing by now that the chance of a major war in the Gulf next year is rising to 100 percent. Ahmadinejad will have nuclear weapons too, and he already has enough radioactive materials for a dirty nuke, a low-tech weapon that can spread terror everywhere in the world. The Left always puts the burden of proof for WMDs on America, which can never prove their existence because the CIA rarely can penetrate totalitarian regimes. You can't prove a negative. Ever. So the Left is always asking the impossible. It makes them sound reasonable when they are just sabotaging common sense.

If we go to war with Iran on their terms and time millions of us will die - just a guess...

Candy cowboy president bump!

Very poignant article. It points out the reality of doing nothing is not an option. One of the most serious times in all of American History and we have a Marxist community organizer trying to figure it out. May God help us all. . .

Maybe the Pentagon is just going on without him. All the necessary steps, etc. .

Wow, interesting article on China. Thanks.

Sleep well tonight. .

Thanks for the ping!

He the Muslim’s man on the inside. The enemy from within occupies the highest office in the land. We are going with a whimper. I’d say we deserved better, but I’m not sure we do.

[lentulusgracchus]

Interesting. Looking at the quotes you brought in, I'd have to say you're right. Obama has decided to stake his entire Administration on getting the Democrats the final fetter on the electorate that they think they need to impose the one-party Superstate.

I think you've made your case.

[BIGLOOK]

Good points.

Our new RoE ought to be simplified. No Quarter.
