But convict Booshe or Cheney or any of the other members of that cabal on war crimes, nah, not interested.



Every day, it gets just a little harder to understand (digest) what is going on here.

And the unrecing crew does it's dirty work.

1. I disagree..
What's happening is easy to understand..

Hard to stomach perhaps but that's something a bit different.

2. Harder?
Seems to me it's easier to understand, the more this administration reveals itself to be every bit the fascists' pawns as the last one.

3. There's a Trojan Horse in the White House
That's what needs to be understood.

He's not stupid.

He's not on our side.

17. Look for that big D on the label...............
Is it really that hard to comprehend that there are people who may be working against our Constitution under the guise of this Administration, maybe leftover plants from the Booshe misAdministration?


If you need an example, look no further than Governator Christie of NJ, former U.S. Attorney left in place during the Corzine administration, he came out of the woodwork to fuck the state of NJ.

21. It should have been spelled out if that was the intent.
As it stands it stinks.

6. Perhaps you've never heard of the fillibuster?
Maybe you should be blaming the republicans for the Obama administration doing stuff like this?

9. Sorry. It was sarcasm...
Mockery of those who no matter what transgression gets reported or commented on coming from the white house and this administration, wants to lay blame for everything at the foot of a dysfunctional senate.

I don't agree with that at all.

Sorry, I should have included an indication that I was being snarky.

12. Combine wiretapping the internet with assassination by whim...
I dunno. Seems a little weird to me.

But it's all good because it is the Obama administration doing it. I love Barack Obama and I would never, ever do anything against the government, not even speak against them. Got that, government? I am NO THREAT (please don't kill me).

23. It's already been done. Like a Reese's pnutbutrcup, the inevitable mashup of 2 technologies
it was bound to happen. In the future, when we all get our PCs from the govt licensed store, it will just happen more quickly.

14. not difficult at all if one had taken off the hopey glasses when it mattered!
Edited on Mon Sep-27-10 10:59 AM by flyarm
but i guess it takes many people different time frames to wake up..but then the rest of us suffer for those hopey glasses!

Not that we had any choice really..the shadow boys made up their mind long before we did!
