It’s time for Obama to make a choice: Lead us or resign
New York Post ^ | 11/15/2015 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 11/15/2015 9:45:22 AM PST by safetysign

In any time and place, war is fiendishly simple. It is the ultimate zero-sum contest — you win or you lose.

That eternal truth is so obvious that it should not need to be said. Yet even after the horrific slaughter in Paris, there remains a distressing doubt about whether America’s commander in chief gets it.

President Obama has spent the last seven years trying to avoid the world as it is. He has put his intellect and rhetorical skills into the dishonorable service of assigning blame and fudging failure. If nuances were bombs, Islamic State would have been destroyed years ago.

In some instances I thing you have a valid argument. In this one, what does he gain by being a dufus? He really does care about how he is perceived by others, even if it’s only Islamic adherents. CowTowing to Putin won’t win him points with that crowd. He doesn’t grasp body language.

I did recant my former opinion but not based on your theory here.

The third and only realistic choice is impeachment and removal.

Paul Ryan: that is your charge.

The only choice Obama wants is more time. More time to destroy.

Absolutely. Leftist always have to screw up royally before they see the light. Even then they spin, so it doesn't accomplish anything even then.

Look at France and how the Right is being blamed, and "Islamic Extremism" isn't even on the table.

Perpetually blinded... (and our leaders are no better)

At least Trump gets it.


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding this
to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our turn is
coming again soon. We stand united against Islamic
extremists, oxymoron or not.

The asshole in chief is not going to resign; even if the prog/lib/pukes lose the election, (makes you wonder doesn’t it).
He certainly can’t lead; first you have to know the deffinition of the word.

He is leading. He just not leading America except down the path to destruction. Congress didn’t vet him in 2007. They are to be blamed.

“Lead or resign”? It’s time for us to remove him from office.

He is not a fool.
He’s a collaborator in the destruction of our nation.

Yes, Trump gets it.

I've had morons tell me--with a straight face--that George W. Bush created ISIS.

It's hard to know whether Leftists are stupid, delusional, or dishonest. Probably all three, in varying combinations, but only a fool would empower them.

Congress didn’t vet him in 2007. They are to be blamed.

We, the collective we, are the ones who are at fault. We do not "vet" our reps and Senators fully. "We" elect those who promise us the most. "We" either take them at their word or expect them to change. We need to look at their past record and judge them on that. No do-overs, no second chances.

This is not third grade, this is our very lives and the lives of our progeny. All the marbles are on the table. We need someone who will treat them like the jewels they are. Some one who realizes that while this country was handed to us, it wasn't cheap.

It is a treasure that commands eternal vigilance. It is NOT a magic genie. It requires a people who understand the price paid for it and are willing to pay that price to keep it.

Without That devotion and dedication, we are headed for the dustbin of history.

It is not over yet, but I can hear the fat lady warming up in the background.

“This country is no more.”

Okay then, why don’t you just curl up in a fetal position, suck your thumb, and cry for mommy. While your doing that, the rest of us will fight these bastards to the bitter end.

“We, the collective we, are the ones who are at fault. We do not ‘vet’ our reps and senators fully.”

Our mistake has always been to elect someone to do the vetting for us so we can continue our acquisition of material possessions without being bothered.

Realizing this, our reps have also been getting rich for themselves. It has been going on since this nation was founded, esp. since W. Wilson and the income tax and fed reserve bank.

Communism has been going full blast for over 100 years. Whittaker Chambers revealed it to Roosevelt, but he only grunted when told of their infiltration. Richard Nixon prosecuted Alger Hiss and many others with the help of Sen. McCarthy. Dems still want Hiss exonerated.

Commies have taken over the Dem Party. We slept while the commies and muslims found and used Obama to destroy us.

Even the Sen. Judiciary under Leahy, vetted McCain to the point of distraction of all else, esp. Obama, who was on the committee with Hillary. No wonder the Repubs were overwhelmed, but it was their job to vet Obama. They FAILED (RE: TOM COBURN.)

We had another warning when Roy Blunt made a speech at the secret closed door meeting on Mar. 13, 2008 telling our future in the NWO: imminent collapse of the US economy, imminent collapse of the US government finances, possible civil war as a result, round-up of US insurgents against US gov, public retaliation against Congress, merger of America, Canada and Mexico. Issuance of new currency called the Amero of the three nations as economic solution. It has not been released but there is a note in the Congressional Record that a meeting was held. Bush had the treasurer make a plan for a run on the banks and the stock market which stopped a collapse.

Members were sworn to secrecy but the leaks above first appeared in a newspaper from Brisbane, Australia. Using Obama to destroy the US was planned over twenty years ago. The CIA and Muslims approached him at Occidental College in California.

He knew the Black Panthers and of course, the Weathermen, but realized if he got caught helping them he would be deported as a foreign student. That is why, as a presidential candidate he needed a birth certificate (he had to have one made) and Selective Service card (one had to be made for him), and he had to use someone else’s Soc Sec # from a state in which he never lived. (Fed courts refused to intervene.) The worst part of all is that the fed courts, Dem party operatives, Repub leadership all knew Obama was not eligible ! The NWO leadership controlled all.

AS was stated, we all are at fault for not protecting our Constitution and being aware of Congress.
