David, if you don't quit criticizing our wonderful president I'm going to have to assume you're a racist.

^ I would not recommend voting on a George Carlin YouTube clip.  I'm fairly certain your vote won't be counted.

Some things you might or might not have missed from the US elections:
Reince Priebus, Take out the vowels and you get RNC PR BS.
It's huuuuge.
"Stop it!!! This is hard."

Had you read up on the amendments in advance?

Speaking about pulling the strings, who here reads about Agenda 21 and why there isn't strong opposition elsewhere, with the exception of the United States, I know it's a part of the Republican national platform.

Obama is defended because he has a great big feck-off P in front of his name, as would any American leader regardless of their political persuasion. Foreign policy is determined by people who you don't get to vote into power and who don't change from one administration to the next, the civil servants, the military and the various security agencies - American foreign policy hasn't changed a great deal in decades (if ever).
What?

Am I getting it right that the only takeaway some of you are getting from the presidents reign of terror over the middle east is that republicans are hypocritical?  Are you guys f**king serious?  It doesn't matter two sh*ts what party he represents, he's a goddamned murdering b*****d.  Do you guys also miss the hypocracy you're spewing in calling republican rhetoric hypocritical?  You're defending neo-con foreign policy simply because of the D next to obama's name.

Oh my, they'd be saying a lot more than this - if you remember the Libyan campaign, there was such a surrealistic cacophony of  critical voices, Republican and otherwise ... to summarize:

"Obama is no good, because he went into Libya without Congressional approval, but didn't go fast and deep enough, so get out of there NOW, and also send in ground troops already, and give more money to the rebels, but dontcha dare raise taxes or increase the deficit, and arm those rebels with heavy weapons, but keep away from them, as they sure are Al-Qaeda czar bolsheviks".

I do find this Bengahzi thing some epic bullcrap.
Obama lied. Ooooooo stop the presses!

I guarantee if the same happened under Wubya he'd be applauded for "not scaring the country" and not "emboldening the enemy". That whole administration was a secret anyway.
Does anyone remember that news story about the secret group not even Congress knew about, with the authority to assassinate people, and answered directly to Cheney? Guess there was nothing wrong with the VP having a personal army, after all Bama said Fuhgedabout it and we did.

Damn, I was just coming to post this.  I'm sure the disgusting hypocricy of our terrorist-in-chief won't be pointed out in the mainstream media.  I'm also sure that our beloved progarchive's democrats aren't bothered at all by this and will continue to wipe Obama's ass so long as he continues to rob from the poor and future generations to fund his corporate welfare projects.


Time always wins.

How long did you wait in line and what day did you vote?  Just curious, no point to be made.

I will offer up that we went in for early voting on the second day it was open and it was quick and painless.  We live in Georgia.
