Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it cou

Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

Unfortunately the man-child president in 2014 saw it as an opportunity to spill another five of the Taliban's worse characters out of Gitmo without thinking about the danger he is putting remaining US troops in Afghanistan through.

Is that it I thought he had finally chosen his Taliban generals.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

Sorry, but I won't read through this thread. If Obama broke the law, take him to court. Otherwise, yer just boring the eff outa me.

American Idol not on? DWTS? Take him to court? LMAO you mean impeach him correct?

Yet you were not too bored to type in a response. Go figure. Actually
he did break the law concerning notifying congress...however that was not why I mentioned it. I am more concerned with the stupidity of releasing 5 of the world's most dangerous Taliban terrorists just for the sake of freeing a likely deserter. But I suspect that his only real motivation was emptying out Gitmo as much as he can get away with as fast as he can.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

Helps to read the article past oh the first few paragraphs
Obama 'clearly violated laws which require him to notify Congress thirty days before any transfer of terrorists from Guantanamo Bay, and to explain how the threat posed by such terrorists has been substantially mitigated,' House Armed Services Committee chairman Rep. Buck McKeon of California and Senate Armed Services Committee ranking member Sen. JIm Inhofe of Oklahoma said Saturday.

An official Pentagon report in 2010 concluded that he 'walked away' from his post, so the U.S. Army did not exert any extraordinary efforts to find him after an initial flurry of searches, according to an insider who spoke to the Associated Press.



but i guess you prefer to not be informed? maybe it might make your president look bad?


Well good then. Are they going to start the impeachment process or is this still a PR for the guy's book to come out Tuesday.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

No, I don't, although a conviction on impeachment articles would surely end his Administration.

Yet you were not too bored to type in a response. Go figure.

I just thought I'd clue you in to the reality outside of yer I Hate Obummer echo chamber. You people really should be embarrassed after all these years of claiming that he's broken the law … and then never getting anything done about it in court.

>>Actually he did break the law concerning notifying congress

You and others SAY he broke the law. You can say anything you want. What difference does it make in this context? See my point?
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

And you should try to answer what was posted.


This is your argument for your gross, overbearing, incorrect answer? Check your underwear. You give evidence that they are too tight.

His point had absolutely nothing to do with the topic. This is about a prisoner swap, not Obamacare.

As far as can tell...you do not have a coherent point. Have a nice evening anyway.

Then you should have passed it by instead of answering the question he did not ask. It was dishonest. And now you make excuses. What distinguishes your behavior from our liberal posters.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

Biden would be the incumbent president.

Not very wise to impeach him.

Yeah. I almost put that in there to. Could we take Biden for 2 years?
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

That would be the important qualifier.

My apologies for the typo. It should have read "As far as I can tell, you do not have a point."

Take care now.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

My apologies for the typo. It should have read "As far as I can tell, you do not have a point."

The missing pronoun was not an issue; I of course knew what you meant. My meaning was that the clause "As far as I can tell" provides the key to understanding yer assertion that I had no point. You apparently can't understand my point. I'll restate it for you: Who cares if you and yer political allies go around saying that the President has repeatedly broken the law when you can't ever get anything done about it in court? Yer position is quite simply pathetic whining, devoid of any substance. Got it now?
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

Absolutely not. As bad as Obama is, Biden is worse. That's why I get chills when people suggest impeaching Obama. Do we really want that moron sitting in the Oval Office?

And they're both comparable to or better than their predecessors. Quite a nice run we've had.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

IMO they are far worse than Bush and Cheney, neither of whom were good to me. We'll have to disagree on this, Kobie.

This "most dangerous" meme concerns me. If these asshats were so dangerous, why did the previous Gitmo prosecutor have no idea who any of them were?

We did not just free Magneto, ffs.

I'll rate Bush and Obama about even; IMHO, Cheney was FAR worse than Biden.

You seem to be the one who is whining. If you do not like hearing about Barack "Hussein" Obama's broken promises, use the scroll function. Nobody is forcing you to read or respond. Got it now?

Obama is an incompetent narcissist and Biden in my opinion suffers from dementia.

When did I say anything about "not liking to hear about" fabrications? Doesn't bother me. Feel free to spend yer time calling the President a liar and a criminal; my guess is you have nothing better to do. My point, which seems to escape you, is that if Obama is breaking the law, why can't you whiners get anything done about it in court? I doubt you'll ever get it. :)

I have posted no fabrications on this board on any issue. The president is in fact a liar and his administration has broken the law in many areas...in fact too many to discuss all of them here. He lied about his healthcare plan in order to get it passed. And he broke the law in regards to notifying congress within 30 days of the Taliban-5 for deserter trade. But then Obama picks and chooses which laws he is going to enforce or abide by. As for the question about "why do I not do anything about it in court? It's not my job, son. It is up to congress to hold the president accountable. And again......you are the only one I see whining. The rest of us are discussing the issues. You are whining about posts that you disagree with. I am betting that you are not a strong supporter of the 1st amendment.
 
Re: Taliban prisoner swap was ILLEGAL claims GOP as former federal prosecutor says it

I'd say you post nothing else.

There were no costs to Reagans tax cuts.

The real, per capita national debt increased by 92% under Reagan. If that's not a "cost," what is?

Which part of "The tax cuts resulted in nearly double the revenue" do you not understand?

Revenues, measured in constant (2009) dollars, fell partly as a result of the tax cuts enacted in Reagan's first term. (The other major cause was the very serious recession his overall economic policies threw the country into.) After taxes, especially the regressive payroll tax, were dramatically increased, and after the heavy fiscal stimulus that resulted from all that deficit spending took hold, revenues expanded.

1981 — 1366
1982 — 1310
1983 — 1214
1984 — 1290
1985 — 1376
1986 — 1404
1987 — 1517
1988 — 1562
1989 — 1640

That's a 20% increase over eight years.

I won't bother to go on. I don't see any point in it.

>>The president is in fact a liar

No he is not, and you cannot point to a single lie that's come from him.

>>He lied about his healthcare plan in order to get it passed.

No he did not. What lie?

>>his administration has broken the law in many areas...in fact too many to discuss all of them here.

Very weak.

>>he broke the law in regards to notifying congress within 30 days of the Taliban-5 for deserter trade.

No, he did not. If he did, where's the court action to enforce the law?

>>But then Obama picks and chooses which laws he is going to enforce or abide by.

That is a lie. Which laws has he violated?

>>As for the question about "why do I not do anything about it in court? It's not my job, son. It is up to congress to hold the president accountable.

Why I said "you," I meant the liars who call the President a liar and a criminal. Why doesn't ANYONE do anything about these alleged crimes? The answer is simple and obvious: there are no crimes. Understand?

>>And again......you are the only one I see whining. The rest of us are discussing the issues. You are whining about posts that you disagree with.

You can't point to a single instance of me "whining" because there are none. I'm not "whining about posts that I disagree with," but rather exposing them for what they are — nonsense, garbage, crap, fabrications, etc.

>>I am betting that you are not a strong supporter of the 1st amendment.

You can't seem to get anything right. The ACA is succeeding, and yer efforts to claim that it isn't are failing.

Do try to focus. My point was that the tax cuts raised tax revenue. That is a hard fact that you cannot deny. If not for the tax cuts, the debt would have been higher. You need to try to learn the difference between revenue and debt. Debts are certainly not caused by increased revenue. Debts are caused by out of control spending.

No he is not, and you cannot point to a single lie that's come from him.

How about "If you like your current healthcare plan....you can keep it...nobody is going to take it away from you...period!"

The rest of your rant was not worth responding to.
