Presidents and the government have had this power for quite some time. Before drones, they had cruise missiles. Before that, air strikes. Before that, the CIA. Well, I suppose we've always had the CIA. Lets try not to frame the American citizens who've been killed overseas as if they were innocent and just tending their garden or something. They wouldn't have even been a target if not for the activities they were engaging in, and getting them out to stand trial wasn't exactly an easy option. People would have died, more Americans to be sure. I'm sorry, but if you're helping an organization who's stated goals are to hurt and destroy America, and who've been involved with acts of that nature in the past, I'm really not worried about whether you get a trial. Nobody made him be there. Nobody made him take the actions that he did. He chose to, and he paid for it. I find no reason to be outraged by this. If it was something that happened domestically, where it was far more feasible to capture him alive to stand trial, then we'd have something to be angry about.
Just because some republithug sore loser calls something a scandal doesn't make it one. Hallucinations is a more accurate description of the GOP flatulence. They are trying to distract the American people from the GOP record. If Americans concentrated on the issues and on the republithug response to the issues, the GOP would be hard put to elect a dog catcher, except, of course, in the South where they are still mad about losing the Civil War (which they started).
Obama and his administration are hoping to 'run out the clock' on all these investigations. Today, Congressman Jim Jordan just questioned FBI director Muller about the IRS investigation and asked what Muller could tell them about the investigation, and if he could identify any 'rogue' IRS agents. Muller took cover under the 'ongoing investigation' mantra. Jordan then asked if Muller could say how many agents were put on the case and Muller said he'd 'have to get back' with that information. Jordan then asked if Muller knew who the head investigator is, Muller said he didn't know. Jordan asked Muller if they had talked to any of the targeted groups (Tea Party victims) Muller didn't know. Seems to me the administration is dragging their feet in hopes to run out the clock on this one.
I voted No!!!! Regardless of how culpable Obama is or isn't in these alleged scandals, or how incompetent or even malicious his actions and/or inactions may be, I'm quite certain we would NOT be better off with nut case Joe Biden as President. I mean, think about it!
What part of "King Obama is the most corrupt president in the entire history of the United States" do you find confusing? Is it because King Obama is the only "president" to surpass Clinton in that field of endeavor? - - - Updated - - - The Mayor knows the United States can weather fools, we survived Carter. Having a traitor who is also a fool, and having every DemocRAT and every RINO actively helping that traitor....the nation isn't going to survive this.
Was he not also asked the name of the lead investigator? His answer was "I'll have to get back to you on that". Clearly Muller should be placed in prison as a impeding material witness to see if his memory improves.
Yes, he sounds like an American that wasn't stupid enough to vote DemocRAT. Many, oh so damn many people, sound like they WERE stupid enough to vote DemocRAT, and many of those sound even stupid enough to have voted for Obama, which must be really embarrassing for them, he being a fascist and traitor and muslim and all.
If you are so stupid that you can't see what's going on here, there is no hope for you as a human being.
Yes, I see what's going on, the right wing is making up another fake scandal, and as the truth comes out, and it dissolves into nothing, like the ones that came before it, it leaves some people looking like morons, because this is what, the tenth time in a row you've been fooled? I'll bet you're still waiting for "real birth certificate" to get here from Kenya, and Fast and Furious should cause Holder to resign in disgrace, right, any day now, and Benghazi will destroy Obama and Hillary Clinton, and this IRS thing has "IMPEACHMENT" written all over it, right champ... You really thought that they had the Kenyan Usurper nailed when they had the head of the IRS having 157 meetings in the White House, sorry chump, fooled again. Those weren't 157 meetings, they were clearances to attend meetings, he only signed in for 11 meetings (and not actually at the White House, mostly at the New Executive Office Building, and he attended 3 events with the President, the White House Easter Egg roll, it was just him, the president and 6000 other people. The White House Hanukkah Reception, an intimate gathering of 690 guests, and his photo-op with the president, Department heads get their picture taken with the president, he was with the president for 1 minute according to the log, what do you think they discussed? Not only that but the Secret Service lists who he met with, and just like he testified, they are mostly people who are working to implement Obamacare. Darn, and that whole "He needs to explain the 157 White House meetings" sounded like you were really onto something this time. Sorry Charlie Brown, Lucy pulled the football away again.....
Obama is either more devious than most believe, or he's more incompetent than most realize. Either way and for other reasons he should be impeached.
So's he's devious, because he made you think you had him with the 157 meetings, when he cleverly had the Secret Service put in the same public record, that the IRS guy in question only signed in for 11 meetings. So he's devious for putting out that information, information that the Bush administration tried to keep secret, when it showed a male prostitute signing into the White House 14 times, but not signing out...
"Whose" not "who's." I realize I'm a few days late on this - my apologies. 1) I don't give an aerial fornication what technology has been used to commit the crime of assassinating an American. 2) I don't give a foul rodent's posterior whether or not it has been done in the past. 3) I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The only reason we "know" Anwar was a "terrist" is because we are being told so by the people who killed him!!!. Any thinking individual must agree that the government is biased in this regard. And any light perusal of history must dictate that many governments - yes, even the Federal government of the U.S.S.A. - have and do and will and are misusing their massive power merely because the people trust them. We do not trust people who are potential murderers only because they claim they are innocent, nor do we trust the people who accuse them just because they claim they are being honest. The government is also made up of people, friend - do you trust the people who tell you what to think so completely that you are beyond reasoning? If this is the case, there is nothing any measure of logic or circumstance can do to dissuade you from your dangerously naive denial, save divine intervention. May God have mercy on your soul.
As for the IRS scandal, he may not have been the mastermind, but I'm quite sure he knew about it befire he claims he had.
