Obama Count-Not Even A Week
So, let’s see: not even one week since the coronation, and Obama has already
- signed an order putting a temporary halt to G’itmo detainee trials, which was pretty much his second order.
- The first was signing a proclamation declaring 20 January 2009 a national day of renewal and reconciliation.
- signed an order closing Guantanamo Bay detention center, but has no idea where to put the jihadis
- signed an order closing CIA “black sites.” In the process, he told the world how many there were, which was, you know, secret
- Blew off Medal of Honor recipients
- Reversed policy which had previously stopped federal money from being used for abortions, including abortions around the world
- Blew off bipartisanship, which he had promised would be part of his administration (say, has he nominated a Republican for anything yet?)
- Got in a spat with a reporter who actually asked him a tough question
- Sided with Bush in a spying case
- Bombed Pakistan
- Goes after a private citizen engaged in Free Speech
- Sent Robert Byrd and Ted Kennedy to the hospital (OK, not Barry’s fault, but, if Bush can be blamed for everything…..)
- Pissed off press photogs by not inviting them to take some photos of him and Rham Emanuel in the Oval Office for the first time
- Called Mahmoud Abbas as his first overseas call as President
- Tightened the rules on lobbyists in his administration, then blew them off and hired a lobbyist
And that was all before the weekend. And just to make it all special, he has received a special blackberry to allow him to continue his addiction. I have no problem with it, but, I wonder who paid the $3,000 for it, plus for the service? Something like that should come out of his pocket, and, yeah, I would say the same for any Republican.

If anyone thought this left-wing douchebag wasn’t going to show his “colors” (no pun intended……)as soon as he was sworn in they must live on another planet. He is simply picking up where the last Dummycrat president, Mr. Bill “Please keep it in your pants” Clinton left off. He is decidedly anti-military at a time of war, will allow the Muslim extremists we are fighting more freedom to continue their terrorist tactics, will push to make America like that former, wannabe world power (World power…..oh, like back in the 18th century?), France. He’s going to tell you how great America is and do his damndest to make us “loved” throughout the world. But his every action will make us more likely to be attacked, diminish our freedoms (hide your guns NOW!), and provide help to the rest of the world’s Socialists. Personally, I don’t give a rats [edited] about how the rest of the world, especially those Third World outhouses parading as countries, has to think about us. This guy will make Carter look somewhat intelligent simply because Carter did not administer during a time of war. Look for more media driven drivel about how we are losing the war and that a “vast number of Americans” want to end this “unpopular war.”
All wars are unpopular but sometimes they are needed to protect our shores. Hey liberals, remember 9/11? Hope you don’t forget. God bless of us who deserve His blessing.
We are going to be busy campers keeping tabs on this morphed Marxist
Roger Johnson:”Personally, I don’t give a rats [edited] about how the rest of the world, especially those Third World outhouses parading as countries, has to think about us.”
Well, that’s your problem right there. If they don’t like us, they’ll attack us, correct? So you do actually care what they think, you just don’t think you do. You probably think that the only solution to stop people from attacking us is to bomb the hell out of them, but the people you are bombing are human beings, not animals, which means they most likely have a reason for attacking. If we just attack them, more problems are created. Obviously attacking the Taliban for an act of war was the right decision, but declaring war on an ideology was not, because people don’t just blow themselves up for no reason. Compared to them we are giants, and now that we’ve messed up the war in Afghanistan because of the at one very long period of time almost failing war in Iraq, our problems will only increase, and you can thank George W. Bush for that. He attacked Iraq, which in turn gave the Jihadis even more incentive to join and recruit members, and which also diverted us away from our real terrorist enemies in Afghanistan and Pakistan. If we stop giving them more reasons to attack us, then most likely they’ll stop. And if they don’t, then at least they can’t use our actions to justify their attacks, and then the rest of the world and the majority of the American people would support an offensive against them.
Y’all might want to download HR 1. The stimulus bill kinda nationalizes everything in the country.
Better start calling your congressmen.

“signed an order putting a temporary halt to G’itmo detainee trials, which was pretty much his second order.”
Why not? It’s not like anyone down there is murderous scum bent on killing innocent people. *cough*
“The first was signing a proclamation declaring 20 January 2009 a national day of renewal and reconciliation.”
Obama? Giant ego? Can these things possibly go together? … Apparently yes.
“signed an order closing Guantanamo Bay detention center, but has no idea where to put the jihadis”
Of course, intelligent people would’ve waited to announce closing Guantanamo Bay until they knew where the inmates would be sent.
“signed an order closing CIA “black sites.” In the process, he told the world how many there were, which was, you know, secret”
Ah, but Obama is all about transparency – unless it’s something that could be damaging to him. (“Blago? Never met him before in my life and was never even in the same galaxy as him.”)
“Blew off Medal of Honor recipients”
But he had so many balls dedicated to him to go to that night. I mean, why go honor people that deserve it more than anyone else?
“Reversed policy which had previously stopped federal money from being used for abortions, including abortions around the world”
Abortion-man strikes again.
“Blew off bipartisanship, which he had promised would be part of his administration (say, has he nominated a Republican for anything yet?)”
What can you expect from a man that frequently voted along party lines through his career – y’know, when he wasn’t just voting ‘present’?
“Got in a spat with a reporter who actually asked him a tough question”
Given that things like the economy will not be as easy to fix as Obama and his supporters think, I have a feeling we’ll be seeing this a lot in the future.
“Sided with Bush in a spying case”
This one I’ll spot him.
“Bombed Pakistan”
This one, too.
“Goes after a private citizen engaged in Free Speech”
Well, it’s not like there’s an important document out there (like, say, the Constitution, for example) that guarantees freedom of speech for all citizens. *cough part 2*
“Sent Robert Byrd and Ted Kennedy to the hospital (OK, not Barry’s fault, but, if Bush can be blamed for everything…..)”
Oh, that is mean… but funny.
“Pissed off press photogs by not inviting them to take some photos of him and Rham Emanuel in the Oval Office for the first time”
Gee, I don’t know if I wanna pick on Obama for this considering I have so much disdain for most of the press.
“Called Mahmoud Abbas as his first overseas call as President”
Oh, I’m sure Israel just loved that.
“Tightened the rules on lobbyists in his administration, then blew them off and hired a lobbyist”
Hypocrisy? From Obama? You must be joking?
