I'm trying to imagine what the reaction would have been had the man called 0bama used drone attacks against Bundy and his supporters.

Oklahoma City and Fort Sumpter come to mind.

Really, does anyone even bother reading what comes out of the Department of Truth?

I’m so very proud of the fact that the vast majority of the West Point Cadets evidently demonstrated their opinion of the Obamadork by not standing during certain times that they were perhaps expected to.

Remember, Obama couldn’t 1) even consider getting to West Point, 2) couldn’t have ever passed even their most simple academic course, 3) his military and athletic performance would have gotten him expelled one week after reporting for basic training.

In summary, each and every West Point grad is superior to the Obamadork in every possible measure. They are superior.

Period.

And they think that the dork is....a dork.

Now, what does this say about Harvard’s “standards”?

Usually, it would read, “some idiot on the staff suggested, and everyone in the room wadded up paper balls that three it at him. Because that is illegal.”

Not so much any more.

Why would he use the military when every two-bit department has a swat team? Throw in a few drones and they’re good to go.

Another site with same statement. Possibly from same original source.

“...A U.S. official said the Obama administration considered but rejected deploying military force under the directive during the recent standoff with Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and his armed supporters.”

Use of military troops shouldn’t even have been under consideration.
Posse Comitatus forbids it.
But then when has that stopped Zer0 .

Smart tactical move! To do so would have lost the democrats not only 2014 but also 2016. Nobody can say he is not tactical!
