The Liberals, Atheists and democrats would say Obama really did not have a choice, but Conservatives, Christians and Republicans would say Bush really did not have a choice.
The only difference is that the Atheistic Liberal News and Entertainment Industry that elected Obama is going to try to put a smiley face on Obama where they put an ugly face on Bush.
Wouldn't it be better to impeach Obama now than to allow things to get worse?
I say impeach Obama now, before he drives America into a depression by implementing Socialistic/Atheistic programs.

Obama backs pet projects and signs spending bill
By PHILIP ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writer Philip Elliott, Associated Press Writer – Thu Mar 12, 1:41 am ET

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama, sounding weary of criticism over federal earmarks, defended Congress' pet projects Wednesday as he signed an "imperfect" $410 billion measure with thousands of examples. But he said the spending does need tighter restraint and listed guidelines to do it. Obama, accused of hypocrisy by Republicans for embracing billions of dollars of earmarks in the legislation, said they can be useful and noted that he has promised to curb, not eliminate them.

Actually, I think we may see G. Bush, Jr. put on trial as a war criminal shortly at the Hague Tribunal. Bush was a bad man. Every one realizes that nowadays except a certain minority faction of Republicans.

I would dance for joy if he were put before the Hague tribunal. No matter the veredict. Just put him up there. Him AND several others from his administration.

I know some very intelligent people who believe Obama is a Marxist. Why? They are utterly misinformed, uninterested and undereducated on the relevant fields, and so make stupid remarks. That does not make them stupid though. Just their statements.
So, as for Clirus, I don't think he's stupid. Just misinformed.

If he had done that then a video would exist of it. Please post the video or admit you are wrong, person who is uninformed.
I would hope the truth were told - and the videos shown - on other media outlets but Keith Obertmann of MSNBC explained the other night that it was actually McCain who make the draconian pledge to end all earmarks if he were elected President. Obama just pledged to REFORM the earmark system and eliminate bad ones and keep the ones that are justified as necessary.
Keith further explained that Obama went ahead and signed this bill because he didn't wish the congress to spends months fighting over it instead of focusing on health care reform - an actual promise of his - and also focusing on the economy. The earmarks in this bill are less than 2 per cent of the budget, plus 40 per cent of the earmarks are from Republicans. Knowing these facts reveal that the Republican politicians are hypocrites who are trying to make a mountain out of a teeny, tiny mole hill.
If all voters, whether Democrats, Independents or Republican would watch MSNBC they would get the truth of such matters, an actual fair and balance viewpoint, instead of getting a daily diet of lies pumped out by Foxx "news", which is NOT a real news organization but a dedicated propaganda arm of the Limbaugh/Republican party.

So who gets impeached for breaking campaign promises? If we impeached every President who broke a campaign promise, we'd have a new president every month. |

you do realize that every president has signed earmarks into law...right? Learn some history here. Bush did it, Clinton did it, etc, etc. I don't think earmarks are right, but they are certainly not an impeachable offense.
Stop trying to use religious superiority to bully other people. I don't care what religion our president is, our founding principles provide that every man or woman of whatever creed has the right to be our president. You, my friend, with your bullying believe that the founding principles of our nation are false and that only a Christian should be allowed to be president As such, you are an Anti-American and should be sent to Gitmo. [wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth], Gitmo.
Yeah, see how stupid rhetoric looks when I turn it back onto you? Shut up and go back into your uneducated corner.

Obama won an election because he promised to end corruption in government and bring transparency to government. Earmarks is a clear mark of corruption in government. Byrd of WVA sent a letter to Obama warning about Czars

Byrd Calls Obama's Czars Dangerous
Posted by Igor Kossov | Comment On This Post http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/02...y4828759.shtml
Robert Byrd, the longest serving senator in history, criticized President Obama's appointment of numerous White House advisors, also called "czars," saying the presence of the czars gives the president too much power.
These czars report directly to Mr. Obama and have the power to shape national policy on their subject area. So far, Mr. Obama has recruited czars on health reform, urban affairs policy, and energy and climate change. Unlike Cabinet secretaries, they do not have to be approved by Congress.
In a letter to Obama on Wednesday, Byrd, a Democrat, said that the czar system "can threaten the Constitutional system of checks and balances," Politico reported. Byrd added that oversight of federal agencies is the responsibility of officials approved by the Senate.
"As presidential assistants and advisers, these White House staffers are not accountable for their actions to the Congress, to cabinet officials, or to virtually anyone but the president," Byrd wrote. "They rarely testify before congressional committees, and often shield the information and decision-making process behind the assertion of executive privilege. In too many instances, White House staff have been allowed to inhibit openness and transparency, and reduce accountability."
Byrd has been a longtime critic of policies that concentrate power in the executive branch. He often fought with the Bush Administration and Wednesday's letter shows that he doesn't mind going after a president from his own party.
These days, however, Byrd's comments have less force as he is no longer the chairman of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee.

I just heard the Department of Education has 5 billion dollars of discretional educational funds that will probably have little congressional oversight.
Everyone wants to think the 5 billion dollars will improve education, but what if the money is used to implement the Massachusetts homosexual diversity training programs www.massresistance.org all over America?
So far there has been no end to corruption and no transparency.
Maybe there is nothing about this that is impeachable, but impeachment is the only thing I know that could stop what looks like a disaster in the making.
Obama has great Charisma and can deliver a great speech, but his actions do not match his words. I really fear that Obama is going to implement Socialism and Atheism in America, which will lead to more disease, death and destruction.
America is being asked to sell its soul in order to recover the economy. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
