Expert on pants creases says Obama’s assertion of executive privilege was a dumb move. “It’s funny – it hasn’t really registered with the country yet, what the government has done. When – if – it gets out: ‘Wait, they were sending guns to Mexico?’ — I think it’s such a thing that will startle people. I think it’s a clear winner for the Republicans.” By asserting executive privilege, Obama has drawn attention to what he is hoping everyone would ignore.

I have to agree that Obama can murder someone on live TV and there will still be people that vote for him of course those who aren't zombies or highly dedicated liberals will be able to pick and choose from the MANY scandals in the past three years as well as mismanagement of the country to decide that at least for now they won't vote for the man even if they don't vote for Romney.
The lame stream media has been doing it's best to keep F&F as far under the radar as possible. Looks like it's time to press the issue, truth is Eric the Red is lying his ass off, and "Dear Leader" knew about it as well.
Unless F&F makes one of these idiotic reality shows (is there any other kind?) most people will never hear of it.
He owns it now. Before this, he could maybe get away with it not touching him too badly. But now... no way! He owns it like a bad pair of sneakers.
I think there may be a little too much optimism in this piece. (And I say this as someone who has had the nickname of Pollyanna for most of her life.) I have become completely convinced that we could learn the Democrats gather once a week on the White House lawn to play a game called, "Let's Kill the Cute Little Puppies By Smashing Their Heads in with Shovels!" and liberals would *still* vote for them. And then blame Bush for all the dead puppies.
The people who would say, "We were doing what?!?" have been saying that for awhile now. I have actually talked with liberals who have insisted this is "nothing" and only a "smear attempt." I really do think they will rationalize anything and nothing will shatter their delusions.
Yeah, what was it that Maddow said...Oh yeah...
The Fast and Furious investigation is “based on a crazy conspiracy theory that the Obama administration is fomenting gun violence in Mexico in order to make Americans anti-gun so they can rescind the Second Amendment.”
So it clearly has nothing to do with the deplorable gun-walking tactics used, hundreds of dead Mexican citizens, Attorney General Eric Holder’s misleading testimony, or slain U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry. It’s all about a “crazy conspiracy theory.”
Of course Maddow also claims to be an "objective journalist." Now, please excuse me as I now go and LMAO on that last bit.
I honestly think that poor woman may have some form of mental disability or brain damage. It really is the only explanation for some of the nutty things she says.
Her brain is still waterlogged from Hurricane Andrew (1992).
I have run into this attitude with so many people I grew up with and used to think of as friends. It is too depressing to even mention anything about government with them.
My husband says sometimes when he talks to the "twenty-somethings" at work, he has to excuse himself so he can go off and bang his head against the wall a few times.
Your hubby should ask his co-workers if they voted in the primary, he would really go nuts.
When I took my lunch break I told my boss I would run a little over time, I was going to the courthouse to vote. None, not one, of my co-workers voted yet they bitch about Obummer and goobernment in general. When I asked them why they did not vote I got the same answer from all 8 of them. "It won't do any good so why bother?"
Apathy, that "what good will it do" attitude, is what is killing this country and that is exactly what socialists like the Obummer want. "We will take care of everything, don't worry, don't vote!" That's pretty much what Hitler said to the German people, after he got elected by the people.
I know, right? He had one woman proudly tell him that she would be voting for Obama in the upcoming presidential election, because, "He really cares about young people like me." When he replied, "What gives you that idea?" she said, "He's nice. Everyone knows that. The people who don't vote for him are racists who only care about themselves." Hubby came home and said to me, "I really wanted to tell her I was considering suing the public school system on her behalf, because they committed fraud when they awarded her a high school diploma, but I figured she wouldn't get it."
Well said, Jenn. Spot on. This is the very reason our Country is in so much trouble today.
Yep. Sadly enough.
If the liberals I know were t find out about the puppy smashing game, they would say, "Well, at least they're not Republicans." The media has demonized the Republican Party to that extent, and the liberals have accepted it all as fact.
