0bama is most certainly the equivalent to Putin, only worse. More than half of the US population is against what 0bama is doing.

Obama was elected twice with the two highest vote totals in US history. Despite his executive actions and autocratic behavior, Obama is constrained by the Constitution, the courts, and Congress. We can argue why the other branches of government have failed to act on Obama's unconstitutional actions, but Putin has no such constraints. He is a dictator who has run the country essentially since 1999.

And America is totally unable to get “in this fight” until he is gone.

Totally unable? Tell that to the guys in Afghanistan or those flying bombing missions over Iraq and Syria. Americans are in harms way right now. We need to do more, but it is dishonest to say that we are not in the fight.

Our troops are the best, but are powerless without a leader. They can do nothing by themselves, and that is according to US law.

Please point to the instances where the Constitution has stopped 0bama from his many illegal activities. He operates by executive order and via edicts from his many (unconstitutional) department “Czars”.

Even Putin followed his country’s law by requesting authorization before starting the bombing in Syria.

Obama never did in Libiam Syria, Pakistan, etc, as he is REQUIRED to by US law.

We have Americans in harm’s way, but why? Can anyone give a succinct statement of America’s strategy or even interests at that point? Obama has left us here, but there is no “Obama Doctrine,” no purpose other than demoralization.

I have been irrationally loyal—sticking it out through two Bushes and a Clinton, but Obama is our well-deserved judgment. Putting you trust in politicians to save America is like go to Planned Parenthood to have your baby. God is not mocked

“Obama was elected twice with the two highest vote totals in US history. “

Highest number of votes not percentage. Big difference. He has NEVER polled above 50% of the population, and now languishes barely at 40%.
