Obama sends former officials to Thatcher funeral

You're right! It would have been tacky of him to attack Second Amendment supporters from foreign soil.

Lol, only proving my point. The people that are so outraged at him not going keep bringing up gun rights, him playing golf, how much he pays in taxes etc...

You're not pissed that he didn't go to this funeral. If you were you'd argue that and only that. Instead you have to bring up other topics that are really the ones pissing you off. You're merely reaching for yet another thing to complain about. How typical.

No, because you and others on the right would be bitching and whining like babies about the cost of the travel.

Would they? You don't think they would understand that attending a State funeral in Britain for one of its great leaders is quite different from sharing a golf game with Tiger Woods or traveling the country raising political donations funds at taxpayers expense?

I believe the American people to be more intelligent than that.

It's Obama, yes, you and the others on the right WOULD bitch and whine about it like babies if he went. I could see it now "Damn that Obama he just won't stop spending, he's just going to pander he doesn't really care.".

On the other hand, perhaps it's all just a fantasy in your little mind.

For Far Right Wingers like you, He can't win to lose...

If he goes (after the Boston Bombing, Letters with poison and the explosion in Waco) he's abandoning his presidential responsibilities, and if something bigger came of it and he was in England, you guys would never let him live it down.

If he doesn't go, due to the Thatcher - Reagan connection which makes Far Right Wing loony toons cream their pants at night he's disrespecting an ally that those same far right wing loons will happily call European Socialists and Nanny State sheeple the sentence proceeding it.

So all in all, he wasn't going to win with you from day 1 no matter what he does.

So your opinion is naught.

Rather than dealing with "ifs" why not deal with reality? The speculations of a left wing nutcase holds little interest apart from those who have likewise drank the Kool Aid.

They WOULD, huh?

Your guesses are as credible as an Obama campaign promise.
 
Well, Obama needs to send somebody, just to make sure she's dead.

Yeah because we all know how objective you and the other right are with Obama. :roll:

Hell if the guy cured cancer, you would complain about how he wasn't doing his job.

More guesses, speculation. and wasted space.

Facts don't play a very important role in your involvement here, do they?

Facts don't play a important role with you either, shall I dig up some posts where you spout partisan BS about liberals?
 
Grant said:
You make the claim, you provide the link. That's the way it works.

Then you didn't even provide a link to your claims about Benghazi. Maybe you should take a break for a while and regroup.

Your feigning ignorance to something which was well covered for three months is not something I feel obligated to source. If you really want to find out badly, do your own research. I'm sure there's plenty.

You should do the research before you make a claim. If you can't back it up, withdraw it.
 
I don't blame Obama for not wanting to associate anyone in his administration with Thatcher's funeral. The Reagan era and its associates are an embarrassment given the groundwork they laid for future financial calamity.

She was a hawkish conservative who hedged most of England's economy on the financial sector, leading to its current economic problems. Not to mention all the lives she ruined with her drastic economic reforms.

Hopefully they bury her face down so she can see where she's going.

Please source this. If the game is now to require citations for everything which is generally acknowledged to be true, then you need to provide a credible link.

How dare you accuse him of feigning! He's the genuine article!

But it is not generally acknowledged to be true. That's why you sent a link that didn't relate to your claim. You couldn't back it up, and it was always obvious that you couldn't.

It's not generally acknowledged that Republicans tried to hang Obama with Benghazi? Were you cognizant during the last presidential election season?
 
Now the question arises whether you are dodging or lying.

Here is the question
Barrack Obama is responsible for the American people?

and here is how you responded

That's what I was told by Republicans and Fox News for three months after the Benghazi attacks. So I guess you'll need to ask them.

So Fox News and the Republicans said Obama was responsible for the American people?

I was. And there was very little info coming out about Benghazi in the lead-up to the election because the Obama Admin was aware that this could be damaging.

I find it amusing how quickly so many people on this forum resort to accusing other people of lying when they have been caught in a difficult position.

Romney brought it up in the 2nd debate and suffered a humiliating setback on it. Republicans were constantly throwing Benghazi at Obama, to lessen his advantage on foreign policy.
 
What advantage in foreign policy?
