That’s the consequences of voting a SECOND time for this narcissist in chief.

Canadians… ? I’m not so sure.
“PLEASE explain…”
No I can’t. Of course just pulling out at the beginning of his term would have been political suicide for Obama. That, the drones and taking out bin Laden was what made his re-election possible… oh yeah and Romney is a Mormon; that helped too.

But I was against the invasion in the first place. If we gone after the people responsible the way it finally worked with bin Laden and had spent all the money the invasion has cost us on (American made) “trinkets” (I mean small useful products) and food, and just dumped it all in random places all over Afghanistan, we would be much better off. I doubt the Taliban government could have withstood $85,000,000,000 worth of trinkets a year. As for training terrorists, has that stopped with the invasion? And of course Irak was dumb beyond words. Was that despot abusing his people? And how many died as a result of the invasion (not just Americans and Canadians…) And how much better off are the people of both of these countries? Getting to vote does not mean your have a democracy. But you probably know all that.

It is interesting that a man who suppoerts such radically liberal social policies could be the one to make ‘Skynet’ a reality.

Didn’t you hear? After election, all US Presidents are taken to Area 53 where they are given a “rider” that implants in the base of their skull and takes four years to mature. After 4 years, if the rider is a successful bond with its host, it can stand for re-election and continue the implementation of the alien agenda.
The only US President who has successfully thrown off the rider is James Earl “Jimmy” Carter, whose brain was too occupied with thoughts of adultery to be useful. George Herbert Walker Bush was successfully colonized, but proved to have an adult rider already (having adopted Reagan’s rider when the host developed brain illness late in his second term) and the two fought a death duel for control that left the poor host animal unable to follow any single course of action for more than a few hours.

The toon is cute – thats all just creative and cute! Some of you people watch way too much cable tv. As for the killing Americans OR Canadians , remember waco and ruby ridge – Slick Willie and kill em all, let God sort em out Janet Reno proved that to be quite possible. Just please spare Red green and the possum lodge.

How about “The Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. military thinks he has the right to authorize military strikes against enemy combatants plotting attacks against the United States.”

Red Green? Is that idiot still alive? And CANDORVILLE is one of the best strips out there today, along with TOM, TOM THE DANCING BUG and THIS MODERN WORLD. And although, CANDORVILLE isn’t exclusively political in its daily presentation, when it is its message is quite trenchant. And deservedly so.

Candorville boldly goes where Doonesbury dares not go. Or ever will.

Like a 15 year old kid whose sin was to be the son of an alleged but unproven “terrorist”?

“Radically liberal social policies”? Please name even one that Obama actually supported. Single-payer health care? Nope, he killed that one right quick, replacing it with a system that guarantees private insurance companies will continue to siphon away 20-some percent of each health-care dollar on administration (that is, attempting to deny claims) and executive salaries. Social security? Heck, he’s in the forefront of people who want to gut the program (even though it’s self-funding and contributes not one dollar to the deficit). The Bill of Rights? He’s been indistinguishable from Dubya in his assault on our Constitutional protections.

Oh, right, the gay marriage thing… which he had to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into accepting. Making a speech cautiously supporting something that (according to polls) is already supported by a substantial majority of the public is not exactly “liberal.” In fact, a more accurate word for it might be… conservative.

Which all makes perfect sense, when you recall who Mr. Obama has repeatedly expressed his admiration for: Ronald Reagan.

Get used to it, Lemont. The future rarely comes on schedule.

1984 was a lot more like “2001” than “1984,” but 2001 turned out to be much more like “1984” than “2001.”
