DC Tom Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Really? He lead the charge to overthrow a dictator without ever putting one single American boot on the ground and somehow this makes him a bad leader? Actually, he didn't lead the charge, and specifically stated numerous times that NATO forces weren't choosing sides and the only goal was to protect the Libyan people, except when he said Qadaffi had "lost the right to rule", implying that Qadaffi once HAD a moral right to rule, and we had arbitrarily decide that he'd lost it and were justified in removing him from power, except that wasn't what we were doing, in as much as we were doing anything because we weren't because the Europeans were leading the effort to not remove him from power even though he had to be removed from power and that's what we were supporting, even though we weren't taking sides... Yeah, that was great leadership. Right up there with the reset button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

/dev/null Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 He could never lead me because I wouldn't want to be led by him. To be fair that's your problem, not Obama's Dave's head just exploded. I doubt. To explode there has to be something exerting pressure outward. There's not enough grey matter in DiN's skull to exert sufficient outward force.

IDBillzFan Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 So because the French couldn't get it done on time it's Obama's fault? Whatevs dude. Yes, that's precisely what I said. Geez, did you really come to this board because your old board shut down, or did everyone just pretend it shut down, lead you over here and then leave you behind because they were trying to find ways to nicely get rid of the biggest dumbasses?

Jauronimo Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I just don't understand why that chickenhawk Obama has gotten us involved in regime change in foreign countries who pose no threat whatsoever to US interests. While he wages war in Libya and Yemen, unemployment remains upward of 8% here at home. Why does Obama need to police the world? Is it because Libya and Yemen have oil? And he's increased drone strikes, which we all know are of questionable legality, by a staggering 800%. Speaking of questionable legality, why is Obama holding detainees indefinitely in Guantanamo without due process? Aren't alleged terrorists entitled to the same rights as US citizens? His bloodlust knows no bounds. Any of this garbage sound familiar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 WOW I know..............."he leads the charge to overthrow a dictator".............................finest bit of revisionism that I have read this week. Meanwhile a bad president has a bad administration. WASHINGTON, Jan 12 (Reuters) - The number of Americans applying for first-time jobless benefits rose last week, a report showed on Thursday, reversing a recent decline and suggesting the labor market remains brittle. Unemployment claims jumped to 399,000 in the first week of 2012, the highest in six weeks, from an upwardly revised 375,000 in the prior week. The four-week average of claims also marched higher to 381,750 from 374,000. The Labor Department report also showed 3.63 million continuing claims, up from 3.61 million. Including the millions of workers receiving benefits under emergency federal programs, some 7.3 million Americans were receiving unemployment benefits as of Dec. 24, the most recent date for which comprehensive figures are available. The U.S. unemployment rate has fallen sharply in recent months and was 8.5 percent December, but some economists worry the drop has been due in part to discouraged workers dropping out of the labor force. .
