and "leading from behind" has done what??? Do I need to point out the obvious to you??? your smarter than that... and I don't play....

please think about that a second.... prolly the smartest thing PBO has done in office, is staying safe.... you do know the alternative, his potential replacement right???

I'd go in their stead... And I promise, I'll be sure to have what I need to defend American property, like the embassy, BEFORE any "diplomacy" is discussed... Instead of anothe apology tour by the staff at the embassy in Cairo this time, PBO should have been on the phone with his couterparts in both Libya, and Egypt to expain the fact of life..... and death... to them... Goes like this.... PBO... I understand you have a bunch of radicals about to attack our embassy??? Reply... We think we have it under control Mr President... PBO... Good, but just in case, I just want you to know I have 20 stealth bombers on the way to, well, you understand, help the situation?? Reply... Yes, we understand, our troops will protect the embassy as you suggest... PBO... I thought you might see it my way... but know, the bombers will circle for a while just in case we need them... Good day gentlemen...

Impressive argument.... so, your good with 2 people forcing a single person, to follow what they want him/her to do??? WanA

No one knows what is going to happen in the next 7 1/2 to 10 years let alone the next 75-100....

Yeah, but the problem is, if he wins re-election, is he still gonna talk about the mess he inherited???? From himself????

This thread, like so many others I've seen over the years, disparaging the Electoral College, is absolutely disgusting.... Where do I start? Even people on here I have respect for seem to favor it?? So.... 50% plus one, should elect the POTUS?? Didn't we learn anything from deciding that was the way to elect our Senators? I even see folks say, well, it's eroded so far already, why not?? WTF OVER???? What happens in a society that always has majority rule?? Besides not lasting very long?? Any guesses??? No #@$% Sherlock!!! I know, old white men wrote the Constitution.... Awfully smart old men they were, knowing, that if a majority could take over, it would be to the detriment of the minority... What is the smallest minority in America???? None of you, even the ones I thought I respected, will get that one right.... Finally... someone, anyone???? Show me where in the Constitution, that says you have the "right" to elect the POTUS??? Anyone?? Show me where it even mentions YOU as an individual has that right??? Scrap it??? Darn, I've even seen mention that maybe people weren't so smart, or had little social media back then, but whoever it was, is an idiot.... It doesn't matter if they did or didn't, because.............................. The United States of America, is a REPUBLIC!!!!!! Not a domocracy.... I'm so tired of this bull crap...

circular reasoning???? just a guess...

Dorothy??? wake up!!! Kudo's for the Wizard of Oz reference!!

Good thing I use a pneumatic stapler... They work very well, always willing to shoot the load I fill it up with. Admittedly, sometimes the head valve can get clogged up, but is easily cleaned and re lubed with intimment attention... Switch it to Bump fire for quicker operation or sequential for the slower, safer way to do it.... whew... back to PBO... no... not even a stapler....

It's gonna take a Really Big Douche this time!!!

Who took my crayons???

I don't agree... Basically, during the W, the WH press corps as you alude to, had decended more to asking, and not investigating on it's own and had started taking their jobs of reporting, less seriously. Under W, Tony Snow in particular, came the reminder, that as a part of the prestigious WH press corps, it was a job of privelege, not one to be taken lightly... He reminded them that they had a job to report to the Amercan people, and not write "opinions" of what they heard.... All POTUS since I can remember, try to prepare themselves for a press briefing, knowing the questions that may be asked, and picking "reporters" they expect soft ball questions from... PBO I think, has taken this a step further though, limiting his appearances drastically, but also cutting the time to a minimum.... I would argue, it's no wonder even the soft ball media then, is throwing a curveball or slider instead... Don't get to question PBO very often, better try harder for the Pulitzer.... JMHO...

Now ^^^^THIS^^^^ is a rebuttal of substance!!! And it obviously proves it's all Cain's fault!!! Or maybe it's pizza... Or maybe, it's the 9 dollar pizza conspiracy.. Mozeralla!!!! It's foreign!!! I get it now!!!

Isn't this fun??? Look... Before the bailout, when GM SHOULD have filed for bankrupcy, someone with a mere 2.2 billion, could have bought the company outright. Owned it in it's entirety... Then, along comes PBO, uses YOUR money, to the tune of over 6000% the value of the company, not counting scewing the current bondholders out of any hope to redeem anything, to try to prop up one of his chief campaign donors, the unions.... Hmmm want to talk about cronyism anyone???

I like that... after all, hasn't FJ lectured the right that a slogan wins the election??

But.... but..... Obama has a smart teleprompter and a cute slogan!!! That will trump experience any day of the week..... Sarcasm off

Why is it "welfare" to allow an entity to KEEP money it made??? Your not GIVING them anything like true welfare does....

Ha!!! Sorry, thought everyone knew where the Buffalo Bills Message Board was.... http://boards.buffalobills.com/showthread.php?421229-BadLandsMeanie-Ball-Burglar-Camp-Report-Opening-Day-July-26-2012-quot-A-Gift-From-God-quot

Over at BBMB Badlandsmeanie mentions him. Said he looks stout and that on a rush be Carrington, Jasper not only held his ground, but stopped him dead in his tracks... It's a really good story by BLM, worth taking the time to read...

wow.... boooooosh did it again....

Yeah, I realized that when I got further into the thread. Yet I can't help but KNOW, the gubment will use this to try to force more gun control. But, can you imagine, how far would this have gotten if carry by honest Americans was more prevalent? Say only a couple people, in the front row, were packed....Reports say he came in one of the fire exits, I'm assuming, one on either side of the screen. Threw smoke/gas bombs, and people panicked and ran, FOR THE OPPOSITE DOORS and the other end of the theater... Hindsight, I know... If I'm one of those in the front row packed, and see someone bust in a door, I'm reaching... He throws the bombs, I'm pulling... He might, get off a shot before I hit him... I always shoot body first... bigger target.. he'd fall or stagger from the impact, but if he looks capable, and willing to fire again, I empty my gun, aiming for the smaller target, his head... Oh, and since I mentioned 2 people packing.... It never got as far as mentioned above... The "other" guy, was carrying a S&W 29 with wad cutters... game over... DING-DING!!! We have a winner!!!

I hope that's being sarcastic. VT HAD a ban on guns in place at the time of the horrible incident, as did, and still do, every major college I'm aware of.... Just saw your post about your friends.. sarcasm font might help...

Ha!!! Like the ones the PBO admin is full of???
