White House apologizes to lawmakers over secret POW Swap.....

Yeah ... so?

So.....humiliate the Mope everywhere he goes and opens his mouth. Especially in front of the camera and other World Leaders!

Trust me.....he wont like being treated like a Mope!
 
Actually, they really didn't but here, I'll ask you this: Has the media failed to report on the IRS "scandal", the Benghazi "scandal", Fast & Furious "scandal", the IRS scandal and the VA "scandal"? Well, according to you yes - but I bet if I typed up all those on even a ****ty search site like Bing, I'd get THOUSANDS of hits, hundreds of videos and dozens of reports. Where are the convictions after 6 years with all the media's reporting? Nowhere.

I did not know that the IRS scandal had been going on for six years. The VA has had problems for decades, of course, but aren't you referring to the VA scandal that broke weeks ago?
 
I wonder if Barack has also apologized for not complying with the annual report to Congress regarding AUMF? Maybe it was a 90 day requirement, I can't remember.

The record was clear that Bush did not comply with that part of the AUMF, so it's a safe assumption that Obama has not either.

Gawd, doncha just love that Unitary Executive?

Heya NB :2wave: .....did ya notice how after most of all last night and this morning. There is No News up on this issue or anything correlating to it. The 530 Meeting with BO and all 100 Senators?

Not much up on those in Qatar either. Not much up any of the Demos and what they came out saying either.

Do you think the left deliberately avoids this all due to not being able to cover for BO? That they would rather dumb things down and not talk about Whats Breaking Political News? Or is it they don't actually have a clue?
 
Good Morning Perotista,
Came across this article this morning discussing some interesting polling and thought you might find it interesting.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/relentless-incompetence-americans-giving-obama-100000019.html

Here is what I have been doing in the meantime, using CNN/ORC to get the approval and disapproval numbers on these same issues from 2012. There is quite a contrast, of course two of the issues, the VA and the Ukraine weren't around in 2012 so I left them blank.

CNN/ORC POLL
2. Do you approve or disapprove of the way Barack Obama is handling: (RANDOM ORDER)

June 2014 over all approval numbers for President Obama 43% approve 55% disapprove

The federal budget deficit……………… 31%................ 67%.... 3%............41%...............57%..........2%
 
So.....humiliate the Mope everywhere he goes and opens his mouth. Especially in front of the camera and other World Leaders!

Trust me.....he wont like being treated like a Mope!

He may not like it but after more than 5 years I just don't see him being dissuaded by anything.

Just now ... in front of "other World Leaders" he just described the attention to this whole Bergdahl mess of his as being "whipped up" for political reasons.

M ... the guy is capable of anything.

I just saw this too, and it's unbelievable. Claiming this has been whipped up for political reasons is coming from the voice of a party that views every aspect of life a political cause - from school lunches to contraception to the very air we all breathe. What a joke. Of course it's political. Obama's primary motivation for the whole mess was political at the outset. It's all he knows.

Yup ... it's the vehicle that takes him where he wants to go.

Pretty much. Have you noticed that we are slowly and resolutely handing over the ME to the jihadists? So far it includes Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and very nearly Egypt.

Oh yeah, I sure did.
 
He's still gonna do it, ya know.
Lately I've heard that there was talk of a deal of ransom for Bergdahl but that wouldn't have done anything re Gitmo so that was scrapped.

The one thing that brought O the shizz storm this time was all those fellow soldiers defying the non-disclosure about Bergdahl.
It could have been a lot easier for our motivated young President had they not done that.

Yes indeed, If it were not for these vets breaking the gag order and coming forth with their testimonies the welcome home to a war hero scenario would have played out to justify releasing five of the most ruthless detainees at GITMO. What to watch for in the near future is how quickly the military turns over all the documents they have on Bergdahl that they did not share with Congress in their previous reports. If they start stall tactics then we will know that the last institution has now been corrupted.

Yeah, but the Poles didn't fall for his flowery Speech. All they cared about is what BO can get them for a deal. They know he cannot be trusted with what he says. They also know more than 61% of BO's own countrymen.....consider him to be Nothing more than a Liar.

The Europeans are still trying to figure a way they can take back his Nobel Peace Prize.

...which is hilarious. "They" feel betrayed.
 
They should never have apologized. Congress and its inconsistencies can go **** themselves. :shrug:

That's total bull****, because Obama signed the law himself. Two wrongs don't make a right, and he broke the law (that he himself signed). Pure arrogance. Not to mention it was a bad deal and we got ripped off by the Taliban. Five top terrorists for that jerk! "Bitch please!"

You can pretty much bet that the soldiers that spoke up will not be standing with the President at a press conference. And I would guess that the 6 dead soldiers will not be mentioned.

That is reserved for victims like the kids at Sandy Hook during an anti 2nd speech and Parents speaking muslimese when their deserter son is exchanged for terrorists.

The WH has admitted they broke the law. The claim was "unique and exigent circumstances".
 
To Republicans & Conservatives: Good luck convincing the American public that bringing an American home was a bad decision.

hes not an american and he does not want to come "home" he was HOME....

This is the tip of the iceberg when people find out he was a used pawn of his deranged father and Code Pink..they had the common goal of freeing the monsters at Gitmo
 
Wow...this is the most 'concerned' I have yet seen the Obama White House.

I doubt it will cost the Dems the mid terms or get them impeached...but they seem to realize they might have messed this one up.

Well it was Unique Jimbo. :2wave: .....just not exigent. Then after they Breezed all the Senators yesterday. The Senate still had both sides coming out and saying.....WHAT?

Chambliss came out and said.....he wont trust anything they have to say anymore. Their apology means nothing.
 
You carry on as if there are no circumstances that warrant investigating wrongdoing.

Fast and Furious investigation proved the administration lied and tried to cover up wrongdoing. It's disturbing when the Atty General is found guilty of criminal contempt and the administration did nothing. It is disturbing when the Fast and Furious story broke, that Obama claimed he learned about it in the newspaper! It is disturbing when this administration willfully engaged in a "lying campaign" over Benghazi to the point of lying to the families who lost loved ones for political cover. It took Judicial Watch to obtain documents that this White House heavily redacted or didn't turn over at all to discover once again this administration at best lied and at worst was very incompetent in dealing with Benghazi. It is disturbing when an administration increased VA funding by almost 60% yet allowed mismanagement of those funds to go unchecked to the point veterans are dying because of lack of healthcare. It is disturbing that the president and members of his administration came before the American people making the claim there wasn't a "smidgen" of proof of wrong doing involving the IRS. But it took Judicial Watch having to go to court to get the documents that prove otherwise and now several Democrat senators are being investigated. And a Democrat appointee Lois Lerner, had to take the fifth multiple times before Congress for fear of incriminating herself. How stupid do you think the American people are that they can't discern a rat when they see one? It is disturbing that this president stood before the American people and lied numerous times when he told them they could keep their healthcare provider and their doctor under Obamacare when every damn Democrat member of Congress knew damn well that wasn't the case and congressional records verifies that to be so because of numerous debates on that very issue were argued in both houses of Congress. It is very disturbing that this president and members of his administration felt they had the right to violate the law in releasing GITMO detainees without informing Congress. There is bi-partisan agreement in Congress that Obama broke the law. Law experts Toobin and Dershowitz agree. While you contend these scandals are going "nowhere", when the Senate loses its Democrat majority, the stalling tactics will cease and this administration will lose its cover.

All that blabbering and still not a single impeachment campaign? I wonder why? Well, arm chair lawyers who seem to "prove" things from the internet and get lawyers to agree with them don't get anywhere really. At the end of the day, what matters are congress' willingness to impeach and the Senate's willingness to convict. If Republicans got a case, bring it. If they don't? Keep complaining and proving things from the internet. :shrug:

Crocodile tears in public - derisive laughter in private by the ones testing the limits of our gullibility? It sure looks like it. Where have Chambliss and others been all this time - this is nothing new. Better late than never though, I guess.

Greetings, MMC. :2wave:

Hmm, they gave you the bartender merit badge and now you grow the balls to come out and ad hom? Lol. Alright, look - you got something to get Obama on? Send a letter to your representative and get him on the impeachment wagon. I dare ya. I'll be diamonds to German sausages that he sends you a nice polite letter thanking you for your contributions and telling you he'll do all he can. Then, he'll go to congress, make a fuss and **** off on the matter after 6 months. The best part is that Conservatives actually sounded the drums to get him back by any means necessary. Then, like the Judas' they are turned on the administration. Try to impeach Obama on this and just like in 90s when you made Clinton look good over a blowjob. The most you'll get it is a goodhearted action which didn't have the benefits expected.

Heya DA. :2wave: Yeah they are concerned.....his numbers are going down and that means less money he can sucker out of his base.

Plus now he knows the Afghan government is speaking out. Since the New President said he would sign the agreement Karzai wouldn't. Which will allow BO to keep round for another decade. While the entire time.....increasing the risk on our people there.
