The Obama Administration: Re-Elected! 332-206 (Probably)

A name that is synonymous with death and ignorance.
I've noticed she's clammed up but good after the horribleness with Gabrielle Giffords. Only one or two blurbs in the media since then as far as I can tell. Although it might just all be going through channels I don't normally watch.
She actually didn't shut up then.
She shut up a bit after when it was discovered that Giffords was part of a national map she had a hand in producing, with very violent overtones to it. She at first tried to claim it wasn't real, then she tried to pretend it didn't exist by retconning the "target symbol" for Giffords out of the map. The internet being the internet, and her being fairly stupid, apparently she forgot that caches exist.
Notably, none of this stopped her from keeping the image up on her facebook page in its original intent. They just did some PR work so that only the "die hards" would see it, instead of the public.
How people can support that woman in good conscience is beyond me.
Also, it should be mentioned that that only shut her up for awhile. I recall hearing something about her touring the US on the dime of people who donated money, trying to drum up a fake "election prospects" thing. Which of course got her more money before she bailed and headed back to Alaska. I don't know the finer details of that however.

I don't know, it's a bit of a stupid boondoggle but it's not like they would have paid any tax anyway. At least it makes the canadians happy I guess, and Id rather have the oil transported in pipes than in trucks.
That wasn't an option for Palin. That would be giving into the liberals, which is perceived as a weakness among Republicans.

Deaf Student 'Speechless' After Obama Responds To Him In Sign Language
Unusually aggressive from them. To just call them morons.
You have to be bad at math or believe jesus is going to return soon to not base policy around that fact. Unfortunately, Americans fall into columns A and B
to be fair, "Thank you" is one of the easier ones to know. But, knowing what the kid said...
My heart, it has melted just ever so much more.
You have to fight through some bad days, to earn the best days of your life.

And I just don't even. I respected him a lot more before he got a Facebook.
Trump's investigators also uncovered a "ton of stuff" that we are still waiting to hear about.
It doesn't make most of us happy, only Herr Harper, our dictator (who it is looking like rigged the last elections) who is selling the country off piece by piece as rapidly as he can because he is realising that there is no way in hell he's getting another term.
God, why did I read the comments.

I can't tell the trollposts from the real ones.
It's World Net Daily, they're all real.
Obama completely owned this guy. This still speaks to the lack of civility and respect he gets from his opponents.
Ugh, I read the comments. People in this country do not deserve democracy. I suppose it's a good thing it's being taken away from us.
So was the heckler liberal or conservative? Was the book the heckler demanded Obama read about saving the environment or was it about lowering taxes?

EDIT: Krugman calls the choice inspired, so that's good news.
I have a tumblr.
Check it out.

FDR in WW2 maybe? Though I think that was just for the duration of the war obviously.
This is a bigger problem with out War on Terror! mindset. Congress (and most Americans) are so ready to fork over powers and rights in the name of defending us from terrorists. Lindsay Graham made that speech about how "if you're a terrorist you're giving up your rights!".
If it were me I would redo our entire approach to Homeland Security.
But at the end of the day, I trust Obama with this power a helluva lot farther than I'd trust Santorum or Romney.
More like a terrorist fist jab.
1. Veto the entire NDAA?
a. the veto would be overridden in days (2/3 majority was available and willing), or, just to twist the knife, a few months while congress took its well earned recession and THEN could come back and "save" all the military families who would have been "starving due to Obama's leftist agenda and hatred of the military" (see b.).
b. the NDAA is first and foremost the entire military budget. That means Obama would have VETOED VA benefits, soldier pay and needed armor for the troops. The horrible fact of the matter is that Congress allowed those essentials to be held hostage by this POS, but still.
=> end result: huge political damage to Obama's re-election chances, for ZERO real gain.
2. Drone bomb all elected U.S. representatives apparently to dumb to live that allowed those provisions to be added to this bill and THEN veto the bill?
While I would applaud the sentiment, you'd probably hear EVEN WORSE cries of (benevolent) dictatorship.
3.???? profit?
Oi, "progressives" whinging about this:
Obama avoided it by biting through it. Congress (and especially dumbass (D) representatives) allowed an essential piece of run-of-the-mill legislation necessary for the proper operation of the country to be usurped by horrible, horrible attacks on civil liberties, CUZ TERROR. The person to be blamed for this is NOT the president (who merely took the lesser of two evils, in choosing an enacted NDAA over an enacted NDAA + a side order of republican president in 2012).
Please refute the above, and then we'll get into the interpretation, if you want.
