grinreaper Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 To be honest, that hasn't happened since Reagan left office. I think 41 and 43 were/are decent men. Didn't agree with all of their policies though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, so is Obama, but those 3 go down as time-wasters in office.... Those that weren't time-wasters in office... FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan. Many before FDR though.

That's not entirely wrong...but he shouldn't have made the "red line" comment in the first place, then. Deciding that maybe your earlier tough talk was over-the-top might be brave, but damaging the international credibility of the United States so seriously was not a "politically courageous" move.

It would be a lot easier for the left to make the case that Trump is the biggest dumbass around if Obama would just STFU for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deciding that maybe your earlier tough talk was over-the-top might be brave, but damaging the international credibility of the United States so seriously was not a "politically courageous" move. This is true of course, but the red-line stance makes way more sense when you factor in 44 was given deliberately falsified intelligence about the Ghouta attack in '12. He was told the attack came from Assad's forces, was preparing to strike - and then was told, by his own IC, that the attacks actually came from US backed rebel groups. Knowing this, he did not order a strike because he feared the fallout should that intelligence come to light. After all, by then the media had already tried and convicted Assad for that attack and there was no going back... unless 44 were to admit the US and its allies were funding rebels who are using chemical attacks to stage false flags. But you can't say that, because it then opens up a whole can of worms that would take true courage to sift through. So instead he just hoped it would all go away...

B-Man Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 TO DO THAT, DONT YOU HAVE TO GO AWAY FIRST? Obama Attempts Government In Exile. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/may/25/obama-attempts-government-in-exile/ The unprecedented extent to which the Democrats have tried to delegitimize Trumps presidency, starting the day after the election, has done tremendous damage. But most of the tongue-clucking from pundits is aimed at Trump, for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many before FDR though. I agree, although I think if you look deeper 43 and 44 could go be remembered far worse than just being time wasters. 43 has done an amazing job of manipulating the Trump situation to make people think he was a great guy.

grinreaper Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Even the staff who thought he was an idiot (of which there were more than a few) thought he was a very nice guy. While Obama left town for all holidays, necessitating staff to go with him and away from their families on those holidays, Bush didn't travel for the holidays for the specific reason of allowing his staff to be at home with their families. When the Iraqi war started Bush gave up golf, feeling that it just wasn't right to be seen on the golf course while he commanded troops attempting to just stay alive trying to avoid IED's in 110 degrees heat. Obama, on the other hand gave a eulogy for fallen troops while tying up his golf cleats (hyperbole, but only barely). One can tell much about people just by the way they treat subordinates. Barry and Michelle weren't much liked. George and Laura were loved, while Hillary was despised. Edited May 29, 2017 by grinreaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
