holy crap that fool has let loose 5 of the most dangerous Taliban that we held at gitmo and did so without the approval of congress now they think that we will negotiate with them it is time for him to go before he destroys this great country he is by far the worst president we have ever had the grizzz

Agreed.

Agreed as well

Five of their top guys for one deserter. What a deal. Treasonous, and perhaps grounds for impeachment if there was someone in power with a set of stones.

He never should have been elected in the first place! More scandals and spending and let's not forget all the vacations he takes at our expense than I've ever seen in a presidency. What a do nothing scumbag!

Do you really think none of this would happen if any other person was in office? Both parties are sheets over the real leaders. No matter which puppet sits in the chair the only change is a few "hot button" issues of the party that puppet represents that gets attention. Everything else would still be the same.

No president will change anything until business is removed from politics.

Every politician owes "favors" to corporations.

Oh and while everyone was fighting about Obama, or whoever, They removed the corporate campaign contributions cap. You guys know that?

So you think things are bad now? Wait a few years when a corporation can just out right buy a politician 100 times worse than they can now. You don't think a $200,000,000 contribution dosen't come with strings?

Obama does suck, but he sucks no worse than another person that would be in his "puppet shoes".

Look for the real problem.

The US government has been broken for many years. Politicians have been bought and sold for years. If big banks, big pharm, big oil, big coal etc want something done, it happens.

Wake up. Stop listening to the talking heads and use your head.

The funniest thing is that the 1%ers have all the normal guys fighting to keep them rich. Makes no sense to me at all.

Again, I'm not a fan of Obama. I have not been a fan of any of our puppets I mean, presidents.

So in a few years I'll come back to this thread, and when the new guy/gal is in place and nothing gets better (and I mean really better, not just the surface changes that will happen to appease their party) what will be said then?

Most likely we will see the thread title change to "IMPEACH ******** (fill in the blanks)"

You want a real improvement?
-Impeach the entire government and all their BS careers.
-Get money out of politics.
-Get rid of lobbyists.
-Get rid of the electoral college, let the peoples votes actually mean something.
-Set term limits on all government positions.
-Reinstate campaign contribution caps. $100.00 per. Let politicians use their brain to get elected not commercials and BS media.

As as a people, stop blaming a president, blame the system. The system is what the problem is. The puppets just obey the system.

the rest of the gov. did not negotiate with terrorist the grizzz

I don't know if I would call trading what amounts to the Nazi high command for a deserter "negotiating." Then let's the POS's father chant Muslim shite in the rose garden and smiling about it.

You guys think you got the rough end of the pineapple ? Come downunder where those funny fury jumping things live , I think there called kangaroos ! We have Tony Abbott , a real dumbass . You could probably you tube all the stupid shite that he has spewed forth . Make sure you've had lunch and grab a pillow cause your gonna be awhile . One thing i notice about the USA is that whoever is in cops a roasting but the pres always gets in for a second term , no matter which side of the fence they sit . Cheers the pope

he had to get his bro's out somehow before his term ends

i want to share something with all of my RC airplane friends:

If any of you are football fans, you may have heard of Lou Holtz. Some of you may not know this about me, but i am a huge Miami Hurricane Football fan. For me, being a Hurricane, we were not big fans of him and his team, however, without a doubt, he is a great coach and under his belt, he led his team to the national championship in 1988.
Today, my partner forwarded to me something that Lou wrote, and i believe all of you should take the time to read this:
Subject: Two Americas - Lou Holtz nails it
Semper Fi
The Democrats are right, there are two Americas. The America that works, and the America that doesn’t. The America that contributes, and the America that doesn’t. It’s not the haves and the have not's, it’s the dos and the don'ts. Some people do their duty as Americans, obey the law, support themselves, contribute to society, and others don't. That’s the divide in America. It’s not about income inequality, it’s about civic irresponsibility. It’s about a political party that preaches hatred, greed and victimization in order to win elective office. It’s about a political party that loves power more than it loves its country. That’s not invective, that’s truth, and it’s about time someone said it.
The politics of envy was on proud display a couple weeks ago when President Obama pledged the rest of his term to fighting “income inequality.” He noted that some people make more than other people, that some people have higher incomes than others, and he says that’s not just. That is the rationale of thievery. The other guy has it, you want it, Obama will take it for you. Vote Democrat. That is the philosophy that produced Detroit. It is the electoral philosophy that is destroying America. It conceals a fundamental deviation from American values and common sense because it ends up not benefiting the people who support it, but a betrayal. The Democrats have not empowered their followers, they have enslaved them in a culture of dependence and entitlement, of victim-hood and anger instead of ability and hope. The president’s premise – that you reduce income inequality by debasing the successful –seeks to deny the successful the consequences of their choices and spare the unsuccessful the consequences of their choices. Because, by and large, income variations in society is a result of different choices leading to different consequences. Those who choose wisely and responsibly have a far greater likelihood of success, while those who choose foolishly and irresponsibly have a far greater likelihood of failure. Success and failure usually manifest themselves in personal and family income. You choose to drop out of high school or to skip college – and you are apt to have a different outcome than someone who gets a diploma and pushes on with purposeful education. You have your children out of wedlock and life is apt to take one course; you have them within a marriage and life is apt to take another course. Most often in life our destination is determined by the course we take.
My doctor, for example, makes far more than I do. There is significant income inequality between us. Our lives have had an inequality of outcome, but, our lives also have had an inequality of effort. While my doctor went to college and then devoted his young adulthood to medical school and residency, I got a job in a restaurant. He made a choice, I made a choice, and our choices led us to different outcomes. His outcome pays a lot better than mine. Does that mean he cheated and Barack Obama needs to take away his wealth? No, it means we are both free men in a free society where free choices lead to different outcomes. It is not inequality Barack Obama intends to take away, it is freedom. The freedom to succeed, and the freedom to fail. There is no true option for success if there is no true option for failure. The pursuit of happiness means a whole lot less when you face the punitive hand of government if your pursuit brings you more happiness than the other guy. Even if the other guy sat on his arse and did nothing. Even if the other guy made a lifetime’s worth of asinine and short sighted decisions.
Barack Obama and the Democrats preach equality of outcome as a right, while completely ignoring inequality of effort. The simple Law of the Harvest – as ye sow, so shall ye reap – is sometimes applied as, “The harder you work, the more you get." Obama would turn that upside down. Those who achieve are to be punished as enemies of society and those who fail are to be rewarded as wards of society. Entitlement will replace effort as the key to upward mobility in American society if Barack Obama gets his way. He seeks a lowest common denominator society in which the government besieges the successful and productive to foster equality through mediocrity. He and his party speak of two Americas, and their grip on power is based on using the votes of one to sap the productivity of the other. America is not divided by the differences in our outcomes, it is divided by the differences in our efforts.
It is a false philosophy to say one man’s success comes about unavoidably as the result of another man’s victimization. What Obama offered was not a solution, but a separatism. He fomented division and strife, pitted one set of Americans against another for his own political benefit. That’s what socialists offer. Marxist class warfare wrapped up with a bow. Two Americas, coming closer each day to proving the truth to Lincoln’s maxim that a house divided against itself cannot stand. "Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it."

And former coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks.... we all love Lou when he was here as our head coach. Glad you posted that Cam ... Lou really describes Obama's philosophy and actions to a tee. So it's shouldn't be surprising that he got voted worst president since World War II
