I agree that Obama has, since day one, lacked the combativeness and consistency that a crisis President needs to have.

Ah, or you can blame the Tea Party as they are totally focused on taking everything from the poor and middle class and giving it to the rich. Now THAT's class warfare. Beginning to wonder just how far we ever made it past serfdom. My guess? Not too dang far, after all. | |

You may not have noticed, but the Tea Party controls the House of Representatives and spending money for science is really not an agenda item for them. 'Bama cut NASA well before the Tea Party could claim any influence. His budget, with a at the time Democratic House and Senate, so I will blame him. I will agree that none of the political parties grabbing the sensational headlines seems to have any future plans; any plans they have all seem to revolve about schemes to scam the most from the public for their private use in exchange for blocks of votes. ____________ | |

I thought it was bad enough when, under the provisions of the Patriot Act, as a permanent resident, living in the US without the protections of a citizen, I could be picked up off the street and detained indefinitely without access to legal counsel or to representatives of my nations embassy. Now I live in a world where, even with those protections, I can be killed by executive order without having been indicted, let alone been found guilty, of any crime. Is the accusation (and, perhaps, some evidence that is not in the public record) of being a terrorist sufficient grounds to kill any one, any where? | |

Is the accusation (and, perhaps, some evidence that is not in the public record) of being a terrorist sufficient grounds to kill any one, any where? You see there was this president shrub who had a lawyer who wrote opinions that the war powers of the prez were absolute. The country elected a prez who swore he would reverse all that. Now he finds it expedient to use all that prez power. The more you hope for change, the more things stay the same. Short answer to your question is yes. No judicial court will review. Only review is if the house votes articles, and the senate convicts. Sentence is pretty light for the crime however. And this is the same that came up with the last targeted execution our Perz did. Apparently we can be at war with a group as the power to do this flows from the war powers of the Prez. As an aside, if a not recognized state declares war on the USA, does the USA have to recognize it as a sovereign state to declare war back on it? What minimum must be in a declaration of war? Who can issue one? (On USA, not by USA) ____________ | |

Who can issue one? (On USA, not by USA) I think the answer to that may well be that famous line by Dubya prior to the Iraq war, and the UN saying they didn't have a mandate to go in. "No-one tells America what to do". | |

Now the choice will be between Obama and someone that the republican party does not have. | |

Most of us here in the US knew she was never a serious contender. | |

even if she tried she'd have been a laughing stock. With her you get ignorance of anything of substance and a pretty face. Though she has learned to take large sums of money from the Koch brothers to endlessly give speeches at Tea party rallys | |

Oh No! Potus is off The Bus and is Speaking! Say it ain't so. The problem with the hypnotically suggestible is: (1) When they come out of hypnosis, they claim everyone else is (still) under it. (2) They just go look for someone else to hypnotize them, instead of avoiding hypnosis. | |

It is what it is.. People voted for him cause he was supposed to be so great. The largest % of people that voted for him were black. And they have been hurt worse than anyone in the country. Yet 90% of them still are going to vote for him again. Doesn't make any sense to me. | |

Black americans are not in the Majority in this country so thats a lie. What is true is that Democrats actually showed up and voted. White black and hispanic and every other ethnicity. | |
