At what point did your blood boil?

15 years ago when the internet revealed to me how many crazy people were allowed to wonder around freely among the rest of us.

or me it was when he did the press conference of the poor man being beheaded by isis and less than one hour later he was laughing and joking on golf course. I cannot imagine anyone, much less a president being such a POS.

I mean the beheadings are terrible, but how long is is the appropriate time to be (at least act) upset over a single death? 150,000 people (7000 in the US) die each day; should the president be in constant grieving over each and every one?

EDIT: I incorrectly stayed they 150,000 Americans die each day; it's 150,000 worldwide.

I will never understand y'alls obsession with him playing golf..

It's when he's most effective because he's not meddling.

When he flat out lied about what the ACA would do. Any person who gave a cursory examination of that bill knew that you would not be able to keep your doctor, premiums were going to skyrocket, and working people would end up paying even more out of pocket.

He knew it. Gruber knew it. Pelosi knew it. Reid knew it. They all knew the truth was we were all about to get fricked in the name of creating something so bad single payer would seem wonderful.

After that too many examples to name.

I think he is extremeley liberal, possibly the most liberal president in US history, but I think a lot of the infuriating things that he does (ie light up the white house for gay rights but not for Dallas cops, placing numerous executive orders) he does because he really feels that is the right thing to do and not for any sort of political posturing. He can't help himself but get involved in areas that he has no business in (ie Travon Martin) or further escalates the situation (condemning police officers).

I don't think Obama has been the race-transcendent president that people hoped he would be as his race has defined a lot of his beliefs and stances on particular issues. I don't feel that he's a bad man though. He seems like he would be a pretty good guy to have a drink with, but I will say that he seems too enamored with the celebrity of the office of president. No sitting US president should be reading mean tweets or slow jamming the news.

Never? I don't let politics ruin my day. I've read shitty stories and gone out and got drunk on a golf course hours later. No regrets.

Obama never ordered the IRS to do anything against the Tea Partry, give your paranoia a rest.

I'm sorry but this isn't close to being true

Yeah the estimate he's quoting is the world figure, not the US number.
