The city of Oakland, CA has already cut funding for its police force. What more could they do to Oakland in light of this?
He doesn't know how to lead. So he tosses the political equivalent of "in yo' face!" insults around instead. He thinks it makes him sound tough and decisive.
He can RESIGN. That would do wonders.
Hey, Zero, the complaints are REAL, not politics! Dare ya to find out!
I’m keeping the faith as well.
That is the city/states funding that was cut this would be the federal funding. For Oakland it would probably mean much more than it would other places like here where they just decided to cut the OT to the police dept. IIRC I believe that about 10%- 20% of LE budgets comes from the federal government?
Obama declaring War on Conservatives. Obama sees Republicans and Conservatism in general as his enemy. This is his bring it on speech. Cut the 40 percent of the Useless government and you will solve the defecit problem but no, no, no, he won’t be agreeing to that... His plan is to increase taxes, Vat Taxes and a whole host of other business punishing steps that will ensure bankruptcy in the USA.
He means that he will offer, as a means of debt reduction, to slash the defense budget. When conservatives balk, he will claim that they are not serious about debt reduction. Conservatives should anticipate this and preempt it.
Cut all federal spending to 2005 levels. Problem solved.
Zero plans to give roughly $200 million to Hamas as “a down payment on the US commitment to Gaza, The Palestinians deserve a chance to take part in building a viable, independent state of Palestine, together with those who live in the West Bank.”
Just think of that paragraph’s implications: a “down payment” on a “US commitment,” that is, not an act of generosity for which the US must get something in return. Rather, the phrasing makes it seem the US owes them the money.

okay, I am a little tired so I’m not sure if I am tired or if he just isn’t making sense. Calling our bluff on what?
Brief translation:
“It’s all about me, so shut up!”
See, what we ought to do is say “YES! but you forgot some things:”
NASA
DOE (energy)
DOE (education)
NEA
USDA
FDA
DOT
[and so forth]
That is so incredibly sad... I knew he was clueless, but this confirms it. I think he’s delegated ALL of his duties to others and thinks it’s “All Under Control”. He can’t be bothered with any briefings — much less a few hours a day keeping track of the war like his predecessor did, and forget about handling the oil spill — he’s got golf to play, dangit!
What does he mean about “calling our bluff”, anyway... What ‘bluff’??? I honestly think he may be trying to bankrupt the US on purpose, and then stoke the fires of people’s misery by cutting off all gov’t programs saying “we’re broke”, sorry! THEN maybe he’ll try to pass a tax bill to ‘make sure everyone’s getting their SS, SSI, and Welfare checks’.
It sounds to me like he’s definitely wanting to cause a violent “revolution” from the ‘inside’, so to speak. They’re already IN power, so they don’t have to cause the violence themselves directly, but they still need the violence and chaos in order to secure absolute power.
When Barbara Boxer said at Obama’s inauguration that the world was witnessing a “peaceful transition of power”, she didn’t mean the ‘normal’ Republican to Democrat transfer... And, it sounded like an omen of sorts — that we may not have such ‘peaceful’ transfers in the future. I hope I’m wrong though...
My brother in law met this evil creep this spring as a CEO of a decent size US/ Inmternational company.
He was shaken by the meeting and by who in control of the White house.
He descibes him as a snide black radical ghetto thug surrounded by a creepy all black staff.
He felt like the guy was not in charge but a front man
but he was a third rate front man.
When you think about it, what else could he be?
That’s where he comes from ...
BTW great post with first hand evidence.
The problem with starting any war - especially a civil war - is that the dogs of war may turn on the author of the conflict and rip him to pieces.
Just ask Charles I of England whom Cromwell made a head shorter...
We have alot of rino in congress who don’t really believe in spending cuts. Obama is calling their bluff
True. And it appears he expects them to be in charge next year. At least that gives me hope.
