At this point the Dems have no other reasonable candidate.

You see the numbers.  Why would the democratic party try to have another?

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Flaming right winger Jonathan Turley on Obama. Just watch the video.

That could be interesting....that whole lawsuit thing might actually put a muzzle on all parties involved.  That could only be a good thing.

Especially, since in every single instance that is being quoted by the extremist right as a justification to try to throttle Obama has been done 5 times or 10 times as much by his direct predecessor.   Things like signing statements.  Executive orders.  Embassy killings.   All those "evil things" - Bush did MUCH more.  And Reagan even MORE than either of those.  Clinton was in the middle somewhere.  I wonder if people in Oklahoma can understand actual facts...?

Even something as simple as running wars - Obama followed through with winding down Iraq and got out combat troops out on schedule.  Stopped the killing of our kids and squandering of wealth in Iraq.  Even caught the chief architect of evil, when Baby Bush prove inadequate - taking about two years to do what Bush couldn't get done in 7 + years. 

And deficits - instead of taking a $300 billion surplus and turning it into a $1.9 trillion addition to the national debt, like Bush did, Obama has presided over taking that last Bush budget and seeing the annual shortfall reduced every year since he was inaugurated...cutting it roughly in half by the end of his first term....just like he said he would.  Now we are under $500 billion estimated additional debt for 2014.  About 1/4 of where it started.   I can understand how reality can really suck for the Murdochians and Koch-heads.

GOP Lawmaker: Bicycles Pollute Worse Than Cars

http://www.newser.com/story/163807/gop-lawmaker-bicycles-pollute-worse-than-cars.html

QuoteAll that sweaty cycling can kick up a lot of carbon dioxide—right? So said House Republican Ed Orcutt in an email as he defended a bike tax proposed for Washington state, reports the Seattle Bike Blog. Writing a constituent, Orcutt wrote that bicyclists emit more CO2 than car drivers due to "increased heart rate and respiration." Orcutt later backed down, Seattle Bike Blog reports, calling his statement "over the top" and "not one which should enter into the conversation regarding bicycles." But this slice of his original email is still worth the read:

"Also, you claim that it is environmentally friendly to ride a bike. But if I am not mistaken, a cyclists [sic] has an increased heart rate and respiration. That means that the act of riding a bike results in greater emissions of carbon dioxide from the rider. Since CO2 is deemed to be a greenhouse gas and a pollutant, bicyclists are actually polluting when they ride." Click on the Seattle Bike Blog to go deeper into the bike-tax debate, or see BikePortland's comparison of CO2 emissions from bicyclists and other modes of transportation.

Awesome!  I'm doubling down with cycling and home-brewing.  Think of all the CO2 released during boiling and the fermentation cycles!

Hell, most politicians emit enough worthless CO2 during exhaling that they should be charged a hellatious carbon tax.   ;D

Couldn't get the video...



Everyone does realize that the only amnesties that have been done in the modern era (post WWII) ever done were by Reagan and George H W Bush, don't they?   And Dubya proposed another one that never made it through....

Or did they not cover that in "Selective US History From the Oklahoma Viewpoint 101"??

You're going to have to get an electric brewing system to replace that turkey fryer.
