How quickly you forget that he killed America's #1 enemy, Osama bin Laden.Why doesn't Obama call congress back into session?
The pubs wouldn't come back.
The whole idea is to Do Nothing and then blame the president.
"...then blame the president."
His two most significant foreign policy achievements will be a nuclear Iran, and the restoration of the Islamic caliphate.
With a view to his actions, and non-actions, one would tend to believe that the above was his aim from the beginning.
The House controls money spent, not the Senate, you fucking dumbass.Repub congress refuses to work. They refuse to do the job. Their impotent "leader" (no, not Limbaugh) has even said that they see their job as obstruction of government.
And yet, RWs whine when the president does his job.
Why doesn't Reid let them vote ?
Vote for public financing.Doesn't matter---big oil is telling Obama what to do. Sound familiar ?
Which us why the Government shouldn't be allowed to have any more interaction with Business than ensuring nothing comes into or goes out of the country in terms of products or money.
Let me know when you can figure out a way to get money out of politics in a capitalist nation.
This was a Republican undertaking.
Why haven't they cut short their vacation, LIKE..SAY THE PRESIDENT.
Where are these guys??
You have reduced your contribution to this board to being nothing be a troll.
First of all it was a bipartian vote to go to war in Iraq, you know that, thus you lie.
Second, almost all the senior democrats backed the war in Iraq, you know that, thus you lie.
Thirdly it is the responsibility of the POTUS to handle thise situation at least short term. you know that, thus you lie.
Bottom line, you lie.
You keep trying to perpetuate THAT lie.

I admit that I'm late to this argument, but I don't see that he lied. In the House of Representatives, 215 Republicans voted for the resolution while 6 opposed it. 82 Democrats voted for it while 126 voted against it. In the Senate, 48 Republicans voted for it while 1 was against, and 29 Democrats voted for it while 21 voted no.
The Democrats who voted for it were: Sens. Lincoln (D-AR), Feinstein (D-CA), Dodd (D-CT), Lieberman (D-CT), Biden (D-DE), Carper (D-DE), Nelson (D-FL), Cleland (D-GA), Miller (D-GA), Bayh (D-IN), Harkin (D-IA), Breaux (D-LA), Mary Landrieu (D-LA), Kerry (D-MA), Carnahan (D-MO), Baucus (D-MT), Nelson (D-NE), Reid (D-NV), Torricelli (D-NJ), Clinton (D-NY), Schumer (D-NY), Edwards (D-NC), Dorgan (D-ND), Hollings (D-SC), Daschle (D-SD), Johnson (D-SD), Cantwell (D-WA), Rockefeller (D-WV), and Kohl (D-WI).
You can look it up, if you like.
World's oil using nations say (i.e. everybody): The oil must flow...The puppet Iraqi government installed by the US is being overthrown. We, the World, must compel the President of the United States to re-occupy Iraq. The ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi will soon control Iraq's oil, and possibly much more.
We have plenty of oil here once we start shooting environmentalists when they get in the way and firebombing the homes of the NIMBY types stopping nuclear power plants. Now you don't have a backyard. GTFO of the way.
Since President Obama has licensed more drilling than any other president in history, you must be one of his biggest fans.

We're not talking about a budget.The House controls money spent, not the Senate, you fucking dumbass.Why doesn't Reid let them vote ?
True, but the budget still has to get through the Senate, even after it's passed by the House. When was the last budget approved by the Senate before December 2013?

Again, it wasn't a declaration of war. It was a resolution giving Bush the power to invade as a last resort, if all diplomatic efforts failed and if the inspectors determined there were WMDs.
It was sold at the time as a resolution to not tie the president's hands, not to go to war.
Congress has no control over war??? I see, next...
The Patriot Act, and attendent legislation, greatly increased Presidential power; panic legilation is rarely good law. After 9/11, Bush decided to invade Iraq, without any link to the attack, and ignoring al Qaeda funding & resorces. We are left with the remains:
Rumsfeld dismissed National Security Agency (NSA) intercept data available by midday of the 11th that pointed to al-Qaeda's culpability, and by mid-afternoon ordered the Pentagon to prepare plans for attacking Iraq.[44] According to aides who were with him in the National Military Command Center on that day, Rumsfeld asked for: "best info fast. Judge whether good enough hit Saddam Hussein at same time. Not only Osama bin Laden."[45] A memo written by Rumsfeld in November 2001 considers an Iraq war.[46] The rationale for invading Iraq as a response to 9/11 has been widely questioned, as there was no cooperation between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda.[47]
Obama has been president for 5 years. Republicans have done everything they can to help him.
That means it's all Obama's fault.
Yea
sure

How many continuing resolutions did the Republicans pass under Bush to keep the war money flowing, all off-book so they could dump it on the next president?
Rightwing stupidity is endless.Congress has no control over war??? I see, next...
Their reality is so different than the rest of the world. Imagine corn eaters and cow milkers from America's bread basket knowing what's best for goat milkers and camel riders who live 15,000 miles away.
I suspect people in the middle east knowing what's happening to them and why is equal to right wingers knowing what's best for people they know nothing about. What it did was create lots and lots of people who will hate this country forever.
Worse, those same right wingers have convinced themselves it's Obama's fault. These are the same people who think Obama was "slow to act" in New Orleans after Katrina. Huh? You mean there are right wingers who believe even that? Unfortunately, too many.
Boehner opening a bottle will not accomplish anything; US military are doing well, this a PLANNED mission. The Kurds are taking back towns, biggest assault today, we are not the servants of King Abdullah anymore, and the free world is again behind the USA! Beautiful.
