Netanyahu is just Rumsfeld and Cheney in a yarmulke. BTW; it ain’t the faith, just like with Islam and Christianity, it’s the nuts.

Not a real American, like Ted Cruz, hero to so-called "conservatives/Fox “news” viewers.

Republicans hate Obama, therefore Obama is the most divisive President in history.

After a brief look at governing after the mid-terms and numerous lofty declarations of getting things done and working across the isle, the Republicans decided naa.., governing is hard, making decisions opens you up to criticism, we don’t have the people to govern sensibly and with compromise. So let’s just do what’s easier and what our people are more capable of doing – criticising Obama. So it’s back to questioning his birthplace, questioning his patriotism and love of America, blocking needed reforms, repealing Obamacare, Benghazi, etc., etc.. Not surprising people revert back to their comfort level. Meanwhile Obama works at getting things done to improve America, and of course the Republicans claim unconstitutional. But use of the military to solve complex international problems is good. Anyone who thinks those Republicans should be given more power should be administered with a saliva test.

I find it interesting that people who so intensely hate rationality are so proficient at using these nasty methods for scrambling dialogue. The one that I notice the most is the technique of completely changing the attack. You respond to one nonsensical statement, and get back “What about … (something completely out of left field)”. I no longer respond to that technique; for me, the conversation just ended. Or, more accurately, I just acknowledged that there never WAS an actual conversation.

You sure must not read very much or listen to very much talk radio. It’s still there and when the left mentions it is from quotes of what a small but loud number of the far right are still saying. It’s the small extremist who give a very bad name to the GOP and the leaders of the party don’t have the guts to call them out because they are afraid of them.Reality check is the only solution but the extremist will have nothing to do with reality.

The cartoon is not even ABOUT the media, logic. It’s about Republicans. There are fully elected Republican wackos who have said all of those things. Because believing in true things is now considered a serious defect in Republican politics.

From Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly, Logicalone… ^http://www.foxnews.com/transcript/2015/02/19/bill-oreilly-judeo-christian-philosophy-versus-jihad/^ The important statement in reply to your comment to Martens is this…Now, some of you believe Mr. Obama is a Muslim sympathizer. Others on the far right even say he’s an actual Muslim. There is absolutely no evidence to back that up.^So even Mr. O’Reilly knows that many conservatives consider Mr. Obama a Muslim. Though I was pleased he corrected that for his listening audience.^There is also this youtube video from Mo Brooks explaining how Mr. Obama’s time attending a Muslim school is affecting his current policies.^https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAxHwvSIuT4^I can provide more if you need it. Ample proof from conservatives who consider him Kenyan as well. Sadly, when liberals make these statements, it is usually as a form of sarcasm towards the comments of conservatives. It is not helpful, but neither is the divisive tools used by our two party oligarchy and the corporate media outlets that serve them.Logic alone would suggest our neighbors should make a stronger effort to educate themselves and inform themselves by using a large and diverse pool of information sources, but most don’t have the time or energy and choose to use those sources that they trust the most and, that agree with opinions they already have.Respectfully,C.

Ahab: saw that ROFL, and thought it could have come from Coburn, their now absent OBGYN.

As a rule, the more people say they love America, the more Americans they hate.

“The only people I see referring to the president as a Kenyan muslim are the left.”

And here’s a good example:

A Muslim, a socialist, and a Kenyan walk into a bar, and then he makes everyone get an abortion.

The left is not laughing with you, they’re laughing at you.

Just a thought: Barack Obama, community organizer, and Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Marine and minister, have spent their careers trying to make Americans’ lives better.

Dick Cheney, draft dodging chickenhawk, and Donald Rumsfeld, four years "peacetime"Air Force, chiickenhawk and Cheney’s mentor, have spent their careers trying to make Americans’ lives, especially in our military, shorter.

Which represents the better “American”?

Those you mention were during peaceful times, because we had leaders who cared enough to keep us peaceful.BTW, I never check back on comments, just add my 2 cents,

This would only be valid if the accusations were obviously false. Maybe not all are true, but most are not provably false.
