That reminds me of a question I have had; when the news calls someone heavily armed, what is the threshold for "heavy"? It seems to be having one firearm.
The threshold for "heavy" is the same as the threshold for "assault weapon"...meaning that if the weapon is capable of inflicting bodily harm and weighs more than a fly, it must both be a heavy weapon and an assault weapon.
Obama's "tears" were total BS reminiscent of William Hurt in "Broadcast News". It was obvious that he practiced the slow cadence which he never uses, which allowed him to well up equally practiced tears. He also touched his eye which probably had an irritant on his finger. There is not one ounce of emotion in this pathological liar. Anyone who was moved by Obama's performance really ought to start thinking rationally.
The pResident's attack on the US Constitution and Americans is nothing but a diversion from his utter failure in foreign policy. This bastard has doubled down on President Bush's Iraq mistake (which Bush had corrected with the Surge) and has exponentially increased the probability of World War III. Consider: * Worldwide apology tour. * Removal of European missile defense. * Russian "reset". * Abandonment of Iraq. * Abandonment of Afghanistan. * Abandonment of Israel. * Falling in love with the mullahs of Iran and funding them with $150 billion dollars. * Decimation of the US navy. * Purging the US military leadership leaving a bunch of yes men. * Line in the sand. * The lies of Benghazi to protect his 2012 election campaign. * Abandonment of our diplomat and soldiers in Benghazi. * Creation of ISIS. Yes, Hillary and Obama created these barbarians. * Embracing the Muslim Brotherhood. * Refusal to arm the Kurds. * Releasing Gitmo terrorists to rejoin the war against America. * Embracing the traitor Bergdahl. * Fervent denial and refusing to acknowledge Radical Islamic terrorism. * No response to the invasion of Ukraine. * No response to China.
Perhaps World War III has already started?
Yeah, Obama has our back. WTFU and don't even consider voting for Obama's third term.
This Loser of Losers can now be officially called pResident Quack as he is the lamest of lame ducks. Go golfing, pResident Quack and leave us alone. You have already done enough damage to America, pResident Quack.
So the rules of tonight's drinking game are simple. When the pResident make a reference to himself, everyone does a shot. The last one not passed out turns off the TV.
Ryan's subdued smile of disbelief at what he was hearing throughout the whole ordeal, coupled with the raging glares from the Joint Chiefs, told the real story.
Not the fairy tale Barack was spinning. It was difficult for me to sit through but I made it.
Seven years of the whiny voice of pResident Quack has been unimaginable torture. The SOTU brought a tear to my eye. I would rather be transferred to Gitmo and waterboarded than listen to his fantasies.
How can this POS thank the Iranians for humiliating the United States? Some of you Badwebbers actually voted for Kerry in 2004. Are you beginning to see the errors in your judgement?
Over the past decade, the percent of student loan borrowers who are not making their debt payments on time has increased significantly. This trend has generated a large debate because the government subsidizes a very significant share of that debt.
...For 2010:Q4, we find that about 45 percent of student loans were not in repayment; this implies that only about 55 percent of student loans were in repayment. As a consequence, if we adjust the delinquency rate to consider that only a fraction of the borrowers have payments due, this level of delinquency is very concerning: A delinquency rate of 15 percent for all student loan borrowers implies a delinquency rate of 27.3 percent for borrowers with loans in repayment. This level of delinquency is much higher than for any other type of debt (credit cards, auto loans, mortgages, and so on).
I told you earlier, all the talk of America’s economic decline is political hot air. Well so is all the rhetoric you hear about our enemies getting stronger and America getting weaker. Let me tell you something, the United States of America is the most powerful nation on earth. Period. Period. It’s not even close. It’s not even close. It’s not even close.
It's sad to see that this idiot can't even keep a campaign promise that he made without breaking another campaign promise that he made. Even when both promises are completely within the realm of his executive branch of government. In his rush to close Gitmo (a terrible idea), he is breaking his promise that we would give the detainees a fair trial. Instead he is choosing to simply release them. Of course releasing them isn't quite that simple. We first have to pay off some other government to accept the terrorists. We the people, aren't allowed to know the details of those deals though. What an incredible steaming pile!
