POLL: one-third say Impeach Obama

Like I said you have no idea what TRUE tyranny really is.
Allow me to educate you. What you describe as TRUE tyranny is the end state. You are foolishly arguing that because we have not arrived at the end state where people are thrown into concentration camps as Roosevelt did then we are not living under tyrannical rule.

It does not take long to get there with "watchdogs" like you snoozing away.

America is not under a tyranny no matter how bad your hyperbole is.

[h=3]Definition of tyranny[/h]Tyranny is usually thought of as cruel and oppressive, and it often is, but the original definition of the term was rule by persons who lack legitimacy, whether they be malign or benevolent. Historically, benign tyrannies have tended to be insecure, and to try to maintain their power by becoming increasingly oppressive. Therefore, rule that initially seems benign is inherently dangerous, and the only security is to maintain legitimacy — an unbroken accountability to the people through the framework of a written constitution that provides for election of key officials and the division of powers among branches and officials in a way that avoids concentration of powers in the hands of a few persons who might then abuse those powers.


You are simply wrong.


My proof is the fact you are allowed to make such ridiculous statements online unlike other countries such as Iran, NK, and China. Your proof is....well...nothing.
See above. The Islamofascist says he has a pen and phone and he will act if the legislature doesn't. He is a tyrant and no one is stopping him. Least of all you leftist "watchdogs" who are just as tyrannical in your thoughts as the fascist is. The only difference between you and him is that he is in a position, unhindered by the pathetic establishment Republicans while you are just some guy on a web site.

Carry on with your "chicken little" comments. They are amusing to see that much ignorance in a post.
I agree about the ignorance. I disagree about who is displaying it. I do not believe you care to be educated.

The fact is you hate what the president is doing, I get that and agree. But to call it tyranny is simple bad hyperbole and my FACTS prove you wrong.
Which facts, exactly?

Principles of Tyranny

Try it. But I doubt you will like it.
 
Your team has been fundraising off of issues such as birtherism for over six years.
This sheer denial of what GOPs have fundraised on and now blaming Dems for is a B.I.L.
Nonsense. If Obama does something worth impeachment, then it should happen, but as of yet I don't see it. And talk about raising money off it, I think you need a mirror.
 
"Unemployment is down because so many people without jobs are no longer counted as unemployed."
Any particular reason they should be if they aren't trying to get a job?
Only if one seeks insights into the actual condition of the nation.
 
So, unless my math is off, it's 3 to 1 against impeaching Obama, eh?

Looks like Obama's in good shape.
Does everyone agree wjth that?
One third want the Islamofascist impeached. One out of every three.
Two fellow travelers want to keep the fascist in power for every one right-thinking individual who wants him removed from office while there is still time to recover.

Notice the definition, cruel and oppressive. Yeah you're so oppressed you're posting on the internet. Seriously your comments show nothing but ignorance. In 2 more years you'll still be free so spare me your idiotic "tyranny" which you know NOTHING about.

You are absolutely WRONG.

See above. The Islamofascist says he has a pen and phone and he will act if the legislature doesn't. He is a tyrant and no one is stopping him. Least of all you leftist "watchdogs" who are just as tyrannical in your thoughts as the fascist is.

Islamofascist? HAH you can't even term the word right. You just keep spouting moronic right-wing rhetoric. He is doing NO DIFFERENT than Bush did with executive orders.

You've even gone to lying about me since you know NOTHING of my values. I didn't vote for Obama, I don't agree with his policies, and unlike you I've actually PROVEN my comments and shown them. Your lies are all you have.

I agree about the ignorance. I disagree about who is displaying it. I do not believe you care to be educated.

The minute you said there is no difference between me and Obmaa, it showed your lying comments. I have proven MANY times I don't agree with Obama, but you have to lie instead of proving your point. You lost son, go to Iran where there is REAL tyranny. You wouldn't know tyranny if it bit you in the butt.

Which facts, exactly?

The fact I've proven with my comments I don't agree with Obama and his policies, but that doesn't mean I follow the bat-**** crazy rhetoric that he is an Islamofascist and we are under tyranny.

You bore me, go chicken little elsewhere, NOONE is buying it except other extreme right-wing IDIOTS.

Try it. But I doubt you will like it.

You have yet to prove ANYTHING. I already owned you son. Now go lick your wounds.

I feel bad for other TRUE conservatives on this board, you give them a bad name.
 
That particular congress (democrats and republicans) and Reagan owned it. Reagan did not write it and pass it all by his lonesome. He did make the mistake of trusting the democrat controlled congress to follow through on border security. They never did....and likely never intended to. The point is that the promise in the bill of border security was broken. That's why the American people today do not trust Obama or congress(democrats or republicans) on the passage of another comprehensive immigration bill without securing the borders first. I am sure you have heard the term: "Fool me once, shame on you...fool me twice...shame on me".
Personally, I'd be fine with much higher legal immigration numbers, up to and including the current illegal immigration numbers - so long as the border is also more secure, and those we absolutely do not want entering our country are kept out (violent criminals, rapists, terrorists)
 
Notice the definition, cruel and oppressive. Yeah you're so oppressed you're posting on the internet. Seriously your comments show nothing but ignorance.
There was never any doubt in my mind that you would prove to be unteachable.

In 2 more years you'll still be free so spare me your idiotic "tyranny" which you know NOTHING about.
I clearly know more than you do today and, based on your foolish attitude, will know tomorrow, next week, next year or into the next decade.

"The Islamofascist says he has a pen and phone and he will act if the legislature doesn't. He is a tyrant and no one is stopping him.

Islamofascist? HAH you can't even term the word right.
Really? Obama is a fascist. And, he supports the rest of the Islamic fascistic world. He supports Hamas and bullied Israel. He is antisemitic. He is anti-American. He despises the Constitution and the rule of law.

You just keep spouting moronic right-wing rhetoric. He is doing NO DIFFERENT than Bush did with executive orders.

You've even gone to lying about me since you know NOTHING of my values. I didn't vote for Obama, I don't agree with his policies, and unlike you I've actually PROVEN my comments and shown them. Your lies are all you have.
I have observed the fruits of your labor. You cannot hide who you are.

"I agree about the ignorance. I disagree about who is displaying it. I do not believe you care to be educated."

The minute you said there is no difference between me and Obmaa, it showed your lying comments. I have proven MANY times I don't agree with Obama, but you have to lie instead of proving your point.
You have the same spirit as the Islamofascist. You fail, again and again, to recognize the beginnings of tyranny because you are ignorant about tyranny. For you it begins with concentration camps and gassings. For me that is its logical end.

You lost son, go to Iran where there is REAL tyranny. You wouldn't know tyranny if it bit you in the butt.
I am amused.

The fact I've proven with my comments I don't agree with Obama and his policies, but that doesn't mean I follow the bat-**** crazy rhetoric that he is an Islamofascist and we are under tyranny.
Is this what passes for reasoned argument? You are of like nature whether you agree with him or not. The differences between you are a matter of degree and style, not substance.

You bore me, go chicken little elsewhere, NOONE is buying it except other extreme right-wing IDIOTS.
You will be one of the bewildered who wonder what happened.

You have yet to prove ANYTHING. I already owned you son. Now go lick your wounds.

I feel bad for other TRUE conservatives on this board, you give them a bad name.
I have given you a good starting point for understanding tyranny so you might recognize it if you survive this time.
 
One third want the Islamofascist impeached.
One out of every three.

Not going to happen, no matter how much some people on the right whine.

Barack Obama will be living in the White House until another Democrat move in when he moves out in 2017.

Wait and see.




"Better days are coming." ~ But not for the out of touch, running out of time people in the GOP.
 
I think it's cute how you only use a graph that starts at the beginning of this presidency, instead of including the decade prior for context.

I was responding to Misterveritis, who proclaimed on the previous page, that my statement that unemployment is down under Obama is a lie. To disprove his lie I naturally needed to show the job growth only under Obama. As the graph clearly show, private sector jobs are higher now than when the President was inaugurated.

However, if you have some other claim, you are free to post a graph making that point.

Yes. Really. You lie with a graph. It is your style. You like with rosy projections. It is what you do.
I have already show it is you making false statements. The difference is I tell the truth and use evidence to support it; you make false statements from thin air.
 
"Unemployment is down because so many people without jobs are no longer counted as unemployed."

That doesn't answer my question. If someone is not trying to work, obviously s/he can't be hired. So what does the fact that someone who cannot be hired is not working tell us about the labor market? Adding them in distorts the picture of how easy/hard it is to get hired.

Says the person who doesn't provide ANY proof.

I clearly know more than you do today and, based on your foolish attitude, will know tomorrow, next week, next year or into the next decade.

Yeah, you're a "big deal" in your own mind that's for sure. Too bad NOONE but extreme right-wing whackos takes your partisan hackery comments seriously. You make comments about me and can't back them up with ANY proof because it isn't there. Your posts here are a joke and you know it. Instead your comments are nothing but lies, but then you've been owned more times it isn't even funny at this point.

Really? Obama is a fascist. And, he supports the rest of the Islamic fascistic world. He supports Hamas and bullied Israel. He is antisemitic. He is anti-American. He despises the Constitution and the rule of law.

Hitler was a fascist, the fact you can't even use English words right is pathetic. Your comments yet again are a joke and pathetic.

I have observed the fruits of your labor. You cannot hide who you are.

Yeah, so much you can't even provide ONE quote from me to support your assinine claims. All you post are comments that are lies and can't back them up with FACTS. Your posts yet again are a joke.

You have the same spirit as the Islamofascist. You fail, again and again, to recognize the beginnings of tyranny because you are ignorant about tyranny. For you it begins with concentration camps and gassings. For me that is its logical end.

Still waiting for you to actually prove your points with MY quotes. You don't because you know your comments are lies. I enjoy letting EVERYONE see you for who you really are. Someone that can't make their points with FACTS and insteead makeup comments that are lies.

I am amused.

Yeah, I'm amused at how you prove your own comments to be lies post after post. You, like many extreme right-wingers, make up lies and then expect people to believe them. The problem is they see that when you can't actually back them up with proof, your comments are nothing but lies. Keep posting so the whole board can see how your comments are lies. I don't mind, I'm laughing every single time you post and don't provide ANY proof to your claims about me.

Obama is a horrible president, but I'm not going to follow the extreme right-wing meme that he is some super secret, fascist, socialist, communist (BTW any intelleigent person knows he can't be ALL those things at the same time).

Is this what passes for reasoned argument? You are of like nature whether you agree with him or not. The differences between you are a matter of degree and style, not substance.

Again, the fact you provide NO proof and NO quotes from me says it all to everyone else. You only dig your hole faster and deeper with each comment you make. People can see your comments are lies. MY misssion is accomplished each and every time you post to show others how dishonest your posts REALLY are. Keep em coming, I love proving how extreme right-wing people should not be taken seriously.

You will be one of the bewildered who wonder what happened.

The only thing I'm bewildered on is how you can keep posting comments that are lies. You are only proving me right in the fact you cannot back up your claims with ACTUAL posts.

I have given you a good starting point for understanding tyranny so you might recognize it if you survive this time.

You don't even know what the word tyranny means. Pathetic. You're dismissed son and if I were you I'd stop posting, you're only embarrassing yourself further. But I'm MORE than happy to continue showing EVERYONE how dishonest and whacked out your posts really are. :lamo
 
`
POLL: Two-Thirds say Do Not Impeach Obama
BUT ... that same 2/3 were divided between lethal injection, gas chamber, & electrocution.
Moreover ... a small but particularly vocal minority selected hanging because they said they wanted to see if he could do that Obama jaunty strut off the ground.
Don't blame me ... I'm just reporting the news.

Several on the political right would be satisfied if Obama's ego inflated to such a degree that it exploded. It could happen spontaneously at any time now.

Adding them in distorts the picture of how easy/hard it is to get hired
1) can't be hired because they're not looking, or because they have nothing to offer, or because they're getting money to not look?
2) not adding them in also distorts the employment number.

... stop all the hatin', willya?

Tell me, Hum, when did he roll out that down home comic drawl he's been using?
I mean "he been usin' "?

O picked that up from Hillary, who picked it up from Bill, who picked it up from Jesse Jackson in one or their prayer meetings at the WH after Monica was exposed. Jesse wanted a view, too, soooo....

In response, I was going to say he could also blow up if some posters here exhaled any harder but that would be crude and that would be inappropriate so I won't do it.

Sensitivity to the moral and ethical nature of some here certainly would prevent that. I do have a very high speed electric blower here I'd be willing to loan to the weary here as a help - I'll even throw in a 100' cord for those who stray too far off topic. I should mention that I did hear a rumor that Ann Coulter is advocating for pickling Obama in brine. Palin was rumored to respond, "Hey. I can make brine. Darn skippy I can."
 
1) can't be hired because they're not looking, or because they have nothing to offer, or because they're getting money to not look?
Why does it make a difference for their chances of getting hired? And "nothing to offer" is subjective.


2) not adding them in also distorts the employment number.
How so? The whole point is to measure people trying to work who are unsuccessful.
 
I despise the administration as much as the next guy, but this shows the unintelligent of the American people. Even the GOP is not gunning to Impeach the President (granted they might not be because they know they don't have the numbers in the Senate). Impeachment as it is defined in the Constitution is to remove somebody from office as a result of committing a serious crime. The only crime that Obama has committed is implementing flawed policy. And don't give me this "he oversteps his Presidential boundaries" BS. While I agree that he has overstepped his boundaries, Obama has issued less Executive Orders than any President since before World War Two. Lastly, think of the alternative of impeaching Obama.....Joe Biden *shudder*

So essentially you're saying the unemployment rate is solid and truly reflects the job growth vis-a-vis the workforce.

"A poll found that about half of unemployed workers say they have given up looking for a job.
A Harris poll on behalf of Express Employment Professionals conducted last month found that 47% of such workers say they have "completely given up looking for work." The survey of 1,500 unemployed adult Americans also found that 82% of those who receive unemployment compensation say they would look harder for a job if those payments ran out. The other 18% agreed with the statement that they would be in such despair, they would give up looking for work altogether."

"The question of impeachment turns on the meaning of the phrase in the Constitution at Art. II Sec. 4, "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors". I have carefully researched the origin of the phrase "high crimes and misdemeanors" and its meaning to the Framers, and found that the key to understanding it is the word "high". It does not mean "more serious". It refers to those punishable offenses that only apply to high persons, that is, to public officials, those who, because of their official status, are under special obligations that ordinary persons are not under, and which could not be meaningfully applied or justly punished if committed by ordinary persons."
