At one time politicians, even a usurper occupying the White House could not waive a law. They could repeal, or had it repealed but they could not waive it. But I guess that is what happens when the voters of what once was America decide they want a muslim in the White House.

His, I suppose. And it will stand because no one has the courage to oppose him. And in all honesty, why should they? The few that stood were beat down be the Democrats, the Republicans , and those who referred to themselves as Conservatives.

How could that shooting have happened?

The Navy Yard was a “gun-free zone”.

So no way could have been a shooting.

Shootings in “gun-free zones” are illegal.

So can’t happen.

(this logic makes perfect sense to any Dem/Liberal/raving idiot)

The president of the United States has the authority to waive the restrictions if he “determines that the transaction is essential to the national security interests of the United States.”

So, what are our national security interests - especially now that chemical weapons are being dealt with through Russia?

We need to stay out of this mess and allow Allah to continue to sort it out.

So now they can continue to persecute Syrian Christians with our U.S. tax dollars.

The real question is who are the people executing his zeronesses edicts. These people must be identified as the traitors that they are.

In other words, Obama is willing to break every law, ignore the Constitutional prerogative given to Congress, and even public opinion to achieve his aims. Has any President in US history ever used executive orders to enforce or suspend laws and agreements by decree as Obama?

This is what Obama is supporting!!

According to Syrian Truth's Facebook page, the below photo is of a toddler living in the Deir ez-Zor Governate in eastern Syria, bordering Iraq.

She was tied up in chains by members of the U.S.-supported "Free Syrian Army" — which is dominated by foreign, Sunni jihadis — and made to watch as her mother and father were killed for being Shia.

Here is how the Obama administration is using your tax dollars — mockingly in the name of "freedom."

Yes, just a huge train wreck.

With no clear hero to back, and no wherewithal or will to colonize, Sarah Palin’s suggestion just to let them feud unmolested seems as good as anything.

What puzzles me though is why there isn’t even a fig leaf of a peace process here. Who says a rescuing party has to back one side in a feud. Why not both sides, but for peace. If their ideology will yield, and it might not, but one doesn’t know for sure till one tries.
