His approval is only one point shy of Ronald Reagan from 1988!

Hey...even I like the guy. I question his policies, but you can't deny that Obama himself is a likable character.

Obama's definitely brought his own special style to the oval office and people have grown to appreciate that Obama is his own man and does things his own way.

Cheers!

Peter! I always thought of you as an extremely cranky aging hippy....but I never previously suspected you of being an Archie Bunker type who runs around screaming about "treason" when he hears a political opinion he disagrees with and isn't articulate enough to discuss.

cheers!

You don't understand how the US government works. President's don't declare wars---Congress does. Congress never declared war on the "Axis of Evil." Try to get your facts straight. Read something. Educate yourself on this subject.

Consider this fact:

Because Congress never declared war against Libya and Syria, Obama's wars against those two countries are illegal wars.

pstarr wrote:
So yes, it is treasonous.


What is treasonous? Opposing an illegal war is treasonous?

No, actually as Thomas Jefferson said over two centuries ago, dissent is the highest form of patriotism.

You do know who Thomas Jefferson is, don't you?

You're the one engaging in partisan BS. Anything the Ds do, no matter how outrageous, is fine by you. You consider yourself anti-war, but you won't even criticize Obama's illegal wars in Libya or Syria because the illegal war was done by a D.

Hey----Aren't you old enough to have alive during the Viet Nam war?

When you were young, did you think the Viet Nam War was great because LBJ was a D?

In 1968 Pstarr had a crew cut and wore a business suit while arguing that the Viet Nam War is great because LBJ is a D. :lol:

So says Planty, once supporter of the McCain/Palin ticket that brought us such greatest hits as "Bomb, Bomb, Iran". Such a peacenik he is. Crocodile tears about AGW and crocodile tears about pacifism.

I've never said I'm a pacifist, you liar. The US has a perfect right to defend itself from attacks.

By the way, its been fascinating watching you turn from an earnest person interested in Peak Oil to someone who now visits the site mainly to spread lies and troll other posters.

Thats what I thought.

Then why are you so gung ho now about Obama's illegal wars in Libya and Syria?

Did you lose all your youthful idealism and turn into a pro-establishment type like 6 and like so many old people do?

Yea, me and Starshine here and the rest of the commune were like all anti-war back in the 60s, but since Obama has been elected President we've learned that wow man war is really good for corporate profits and all so now we back war 100%. Bring it on, man.

When the banksters want something, our policymakers move with the speed of Mercury and the determination of Ares. It’s only when the rest of us need something that there is paralysis.

How free are we today with the dominance of globalist capital and militarized security apparatus?

Wow! Obama has really had a rough week at the G20 meeting.

First the Chinese refused to bring out an airport stairway so he could exit Air Force One and get on the ground. AF-1 has a built stairway back at the cargo door, so eventually the crew cranked it down and Obama exited that way. Then a minor Chinese airport official started screaming at the US delegation that "China is OUR country." And apparently there was a minor scuffle when one of the US reporters tried to walk away from the official delegation.

This was obviously all a pre-planned effort by the Chinese to insult Obama. The Chinese detest Obama.

Then there were the "negotiations" with Putin designed to reach an accord on Syria that obama babbled about for days. Of course there was no accord---the Russians obviously detest Obama and pictures of Putin and Obama show them locked in a stare-down contest

Lastly there was the incident where the president of the Philippines said that Obama was a "Son of a Bitch." Some US media are reporting it as a son of a whore, but it sounded like "son of a bitch" to me. This is remarkable behavior at a diplomatic meeting, and indicates that the Philippine leadership also detests Obama.

I'm not even sure Obama got any golfing done---it was a very tough week for Obama.

It was bizarre watching Elizabeth Warren at the Senate Hearing berate the Chairman of Well Fargo because he isn't being prosecuted for financial misconduct.

Doesn't Warren understand how our government works?

Its not up to the Chairman of Well Fargo Bank to prosecute himself----its up to the Obama administration to prosecute him. And the Obama administration does't prosecute people who are Ds. Wells Fargo is a major donor to the Clinton Foundation, so they have bought themselves protection from federal prosecution.

Quick! Give more money to the Clinton Foundation!
