barack obama

I know, i'm not one to post much, yet have done so in round about ways not always liken to the topic at hand. Please forgive. So there's been much discourse surrounding Barrack Obama's 60th Birthday party, whereas one crowd cited it was nothing short of a mask-less crowd of elitists thumbing...

I, for one, find America’s 44th President’s use of drone warfare deeply problematic and so I think he should be erased from American history.

Did Putin Fear John McCain so much that they used me to save Jerome Corsi, knowing he would try to smear Barrack Obama, or Clinton and that would Keep McCain from winning the vote in 2008. Here is the way I see this Arguement. [A.] Russian TV monitors this forum and found out that Dr. Steven...

Why, because only a member of the Republican Party would say something like this... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-50239261

First, the link to the evidences: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/brigid-kosgei-marathon-kenyan-runner-shatters-womens-world-record-at-chicago-marathon-today-2019-10-13/ And now, THE EVIDENCES: AND: AND FINALLY: There can be no doubts about it now! Everything must be rolled back to the way...

I have been asked to rebut this nonsense reposted by radio personality Mike Gallagher. https://www.truthorfiction.com/mike-gallaghers-president-obama-it-was-you-essay/ I cannot find a single source that addresses this list. My Google-fu is not strong. Is there a site that addresses these...

... I write my own books." Not a direct quote. The writing has been going more slowly than he’d expected, and according to several people who have spoken with him, the 44th president is feeling competitive with his wife, whose own book, Becoming, was the biggest release of 2018 and is on track...

Kind of surprised there's no thread on this yet. I put it in social issues & current events because I hope we can confine the discussion to the portraits themselves. You can get a decent look at both pictures here. As portraits go, these are certainly non-traditional. Barack is sitting in a...

President Obama accomplished a lot of great things, and many great things happened in America during his administration. Most of these things have been preserved by Trump and are likely to stay strong. These accomplishments are: -the ACA/Obamacare -FDA regulatory authority over tobacco...

Some joker in France have put 500 posters to ask Obama as president of France. http://us.cnn.com/2017/02/24/europe/france-obama-17-president-trnd/index.html Normally I would laugh, but seeing the grim list of candidate we'll have... I can't help to think he would be IMO the best of the crop.

Folks please note this has been moved to the "History..." section. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/all-time-best-president-united-states-rankings-235149 Compared to Trump Obama comes off as very moderate and conservative indeed. Despite Republican's trying portray him as being "leftist"...

Well, that didn't take long. Obama's actually had vacations in Hawaii that lasted longer than his respectful silence on his successor's policies. 11 days. That's it. George W. Bush has kept his mouth shut for over 8 years now, and Obama lasted 11 days. And when he opens is yap, he even...

Truly one of the funniest things I've ever seen on Saturday Night Live. It had me laughing until I retched. Or maybe it was retching until I laughed: 31ETEUsWhdo Of course that wasn't the only funny thing that happened yesterday. The million sore loser march was pretty funny too.

This is an excellent analysis of Obama's legacy in spite of the spin from his eloquent mouth. The only legacy he can claim is that he was the first Black President. Anything further than that is pure political spin. Some of the unilateral actions he claims will be undone in the coming weeks...

May 17 release date. Thank God, figuratively. This is one sorry chapter in America. A step in the right direction.

I'm breaking this out to a new thread in order for logger to support his claim without derailing. No more whack-a-mole. Please present specific evidence that addresses this claim. I hope people will hold off a while on posting counter evidence, and wait for logger to post his evidence first. TIA.

The Republicans made believe that we cannot have the President nominate anyone for the Supreme Court during his last year in office. There is no precedent for this. Several Supreme Court Justices have been nominated and approved by the Senate during a President's last year in office, several...

It's on but I'll set it to DVR (it's on through Mon. I think) because it looks recordable just from the few minutes I've seen. I don't care for Oprah, and see little of Michelle... but already they're throwing up clips of unique, meaningful White House events and moments that are due to her...

Obama has vowed to retaliate against Russia for their interference in the election. What form will that retaliation take?

I'd actually forgotten. Saw him promoting Clinton. Mostly ad lib. Dudes a walking machine. Just had that charisma thing mixed with intelligent points. Better even than Bill I think. He will not be a poor man after the election

What a piece of ****.

Who is Sid Blumenthal? He has been described as Sidney as a "confidante," "henchman," "advisor," hatchet-man," former aide," "intel-provider," "prolific email correspondent," and most colorfully: "Clinton’s enabler: a rumor-mongering Wormtongue." We know he was so despised by Obama and his...

It strikes me as a rather under reported story, but the Red Cross has declared the Louisiana flooding to be the worst US natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy four years ago. Obama is finally being criticized for seeming rather aloof and unconcerned about the disaster. Will he be criticized...

Somebody claimed recently in another thread that Obama's presidency will be treated very favorably by historians. I'm sure that many active participants in USA Politics would agree. My question is "what are his major successes?" It would also be relevant to explain how he, personally, was...

It's breaking all over the internet, so choose your source. The emails Hillary deleted are being released by WikiLeaks, and it includes proof regarding the US arming ISIS in Syria. The urgency of changing the narrative to Russia being the source is clear. But it is extremely dangerous. In...

The following are excerpts of a conversation had in another thread: [edits by me for focus and because I made a typo originally] That was probably the wrong thread for that conversation and nobody seemed to want to answer the question. I've heard similar statements on Facebook and similar...

This is a very nice bunch of pics. http://twistedsifter.com/2016/07/pete-souza-white-house-photog-favorite-obama-photos/

I'm surprised there is no discussion of this event (I couldn't find one at any rate), but yesterday President Barack Obama, along with forty members of Congress, a contingent of American business people and the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team, arrived in Cuba. This was the first time an American...

While there could be many reasons, here's one. There has been speculation of her storming into Oval Office, and demanding Obama call off his dogs. To which he replied, he can not! He recently gave an interview many saw as support for her. Since she did at least two things that could have pissed...

*Cue Jeopardy theme* We are now five days into the last year of Obama's presidency. And five days closer to a Clinton/Sanders administration....or Trump...brrrr Well Obama has some work cut out for him. Only one year left to: Take all the guns Institute communism Get oil prices above $200 a...
