Talking of diversions..........and President Trump does represent you, like it or not. |
????Did you ask me a question to which I didn't respond????
And, Trump does not "represent me". He won the Presidency because he obtained more "representative" votes than Clinton did. My State, and thus my representative elector, voted for Clinton. By the definition of our democracy he is not a "representative". That's the civic definition.
From a moral perspective, he certainly does not represent my beliefs and morals.
I suppose he represents the US when he meets with a foreign leader...I'll give you that. |

Hiding at an "all male" resort island in the south Pacific, he should stay there for his own good. |

Wow, from the NY Times no less, it kind of reminds me of when LBJ said something to the effect of "if I've lost Walter Cronkite, I've lost the war".

For Obama, Syria Chemical Attack Shows Risk of ‘Deals With Dictators’
4-9-17
WASHINGTON — When it came time to make his case for the judgment of history, President Barack Obama had a ready rebuttal to one of the most cutting critiques of his time in office.
Although friends and foes alike faulted him for not following through on his threat to retaliate when Syria gassed its own people in 2013, Mr. Obama would counter that he had actually achieved a better result through an agreement with President Bashar al-Assad to surrender all of his chemical weapons.
After last week, even former Obama aides assume that he will have to rethink that passage in his memoir. More than 80 civilians were killed in what Western analysts called a sarin attack by Syrian forces — a chilling demonstration that the agreement did not succeed. In recent days, former aides have lamented what they considered one of the worst moments of the Obama presidency and privately conceded that his legacy would suffer.
For the rest~

If Obama had dropped a MOAB on the thousands of massed ISIS animals when they were sitting ducks at the border, he could have set those vermin back for years to come, saving thousands of lives. I can't believe a handful of extremists actually criticize that counterattack. |

As pointed out by the other madman why would he use chemical weapons, what could he get that his conventional bombs were not achieving in this exact situation....
It is a very curious point.
Who would gain from it, the russians and Trump.
again trumps complete reversal on everything he had ever said is troubling. again the time assad had used it to kill some 1400 trump said obama should rebuild america. _________________ when good people stay silent the right wing are the only ones heard. |

can you tell us exactly what date the military found that there were this many isis sitting in a tunnel?
Again you seemed to forget he sent in some special forces to capture and or kill Bin Laden. again this was flying into a another country that had an active military. Remember Bush saying he did not care about Bin Laden. Remember Bush was the greatest recruiter of terrorists in the history of the world. _________________ when good people stay silent the right wing are the only ones heard. |
