Reuters via MSN ^ | 3/30/15 | Roberta Rampton

A third of Republicans believe President Barack Obama poses an imminent threat to the United States, outranking concerns about Russian President Vladimir Putin and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

A Reuters/Ipsos online poll this month asked 2,809 Americans to rate how much of a threat a list of countries, organizations and individuals posed to the United States on a scale of 1 to 5, with one being no threat and 5 being an imminent threat.

The poll showed 34 percent of Republicans ranked Obama as an imminent threat, ahead of Putin (25 percent), who has been accused of aggression in the Ukraine, and Assad (23 percent). Western governments have alleged that Assad used chlorine gas and barrel bombs on his own citizens.

Putin and Assad probably like the USA more than Obama does.

If we walk away from war on Russia’s doorstep we won’t be further menaced or expend one more dime. But if we walk away from Obama he will complete his transformation of the US into a copy of some middle eastern failed state.

Anyone who thinks that Foreigner in the White Mosque is friendly to the U.S. is practicing rectal/cranial immersion.

I agree, and one, we believe, is a president with little time left in his time in office, about 21 more months. The other is president for life.

Only a third? What’s wrong with the other two thirds?

Hard to believe it is only a third.

The other two-thirds were shamed into lying by the poll interviewer.

Well they're all sitting at the table in Lausanne Switzerland trying to do the deal with Iran today to meet the deadline by Tues....

Russia's Lavrov, Kerry, Britain, France, Kerry and EU representatives all sitting around the table with Iranians.

Now this is just exactly how it will be once the “New World Order” is in place.....this seems to be a trial run and why Obama constantly refuses to do more than stir the pots..then retreats... and when world leaders see he isn't responding as is customary for the US Presidents to do... then the Nations Leaders come into the fray as we see here in Lausanne....as we saw in Libya...as we saw in Syria...and on and on.

Seems to me Obama’s puppeteers are forcing/manipulating nation leaders to act as a “Unified Body” by the US not acting...an Obama is more than happy to co-operate.

I think we're (the people) getting primed to accept the World Events and Conflicts can no longer be led by any one country....rather it must be a collective effort on everything. Thus a One World Government is already operating on the fringes though not yet declared as so.

Wait until the pardons start. We ain't seen nothin' yet.

And even that won't wake up the Obamabots.

And yet.
The enemedia never even blinks when Obama sees conservative, gun owning Americans as a threat.
And, weaponizes the government for attacks against us.

hillary is still regarded as the unstoppable Democratic nominee. Why aren't we seeing the Republicans using their legal skills to get her charged for her criminal activities, even jailed for erasing the emails after they were subpoenaed?

I'll answer my own question. The conspiracy theory stuff about there being a global shadow government that manipulates almost everything of importance does indeed exist, and the puppetmasters are becoming less subtle about keeping it in place.

“Western governments have alleged that Assad used chlorine gas and barrel bombs on his own citizens.”

What’s this supposed to mean? Western government would just give up when faced with civil insurrection? Conventional wisdom has it that when the SHTF, cops will be the first ones to go rogue ... followed by the politicians via the Military.

True. Any President who is deemed more dangerous to America then leaders of our nation’s foes needs to be impeached ASAP.
