are saying they are tired of Washington for being inactive, aren't these same fools who have been blocking President Obama for keeping what he said he would do during his tenure? These low lives have been blocking the President every which way and now they are saying Washington has failed! Gosh, the Clown Bus is full, hope none of those idiots get even close to the White House!

(5,704 posts)Hope Trump does not get the nomination, then America and Canada will be fucked. We already have Harper, mini Bush in the waiting. Hope those two fuckers get elected out!

(5,704 posts)that we have to be polite to those fuckers.
If a Democrat does something wrong, aka John Edwards, the shit sticks on him but if a fucking Republican does something wrong, they get away with it. Is it the media that entitles these asshole republicans to get away with shit?

(2,328 posts)Yes, these are the very same ones who did all that and more.
McConnell said from day one his first job is to oppose Obama's agenda 100%.
Complain about nothing being done. Complain about Obama changing everything. He's either an ineffectual bumbler or a despotic authoritarian. Rinse repeat.
Now they've whittled their support down to a bunch of rabid fundamentalists who think Armageddon is around the corner and of course the monied donors.
Trump figured out how snag the adulation of the fundies and now the donors are shitting themselves trying to figure out how to right the ship.
Banned for that? Hope not.

(5,704 posts)Iraq and now we have this crisis with people from Syria fleeing their homeland and the US and Canada is so non chalant about their part and Germany came to the rescue. How do people not feel angry? Canada and the US, including the UK and Australia are responsible for this indignity. Why is Germany the only country being humanitarian. It sucks when you see the images on TV!

my heart breaks everytime i see these people on tv. and the hungarian government sucks. they have them trapped there. all they want is to get through hungary and get to germany and other countries who are willing to take them. of course hungary is right wing.

(5,704 posts)We all know that if we are attacked, we will retaliate. Iraq had nothing to do with the twin towers, but Bush was misguided. It breaks my heart to see how Hungary are treating the refugees and the inative ness of the the US and Canada who created this shit. That baby on the shore broke my heart, we are all humans!
You watch at those pictures and your heart just reach out.

(5,704 posts)President Obama tried his best to take America out of a recession. And he did with all the hostilities from the republicans. You and I know that they hated and tried to block any thing he wanted to pass as he promised, but girl, he managed to succed.
DesertFlower
(11,649 posts)he had cooperation with republicans. how many times has he asked to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure which would create more jobs?
akbacchus_BC
(5,704 posts)If I were President Obama, I would sanction everything he promised with a pen. He made promises to the American people and am sure he want to leave the Oval Office achieving what he promised. Those fucking republicans and some democrats did not allow him to achieve what he promised.
I hope the American people realise that!

(5,704 posts)Never before in American history, you see these police beating up on Afro Americans but they hated President Obama so much, that they went rampant on black people and every fucking white people in authority stayed silent.
Now, I hope Blake will take this issue to the forefront and make the injustice go away. When you see that video, as a mother you cried! That could be our son or daughter! I was at a place where my daughter dropped me off to catch the skytrain, lots of other people were there, but this white police targeted my daughter and gave her a ticket but not the other people. I told my daughter, we will go to court, I am from Guyana by the way and brown skinned. Canada is no less racist than the US.

(11,649 posts)racists are everywhere. that's why i think trump has so much support. he's a damn racist.

(37,457 posts)I agree with you. You darn sure won't get banned for bashing Republicans, unless you say something really insane like you want to kill one of them. That would be an insta-ban. Quite properly, in my considered opinion.

(5,704 posts)and the NRA. They just do not care about American lives. You keep thinking, ok after one incident, the NRA will work with families, but no. Then that Reporter got killed and nothing in being done. Her Dad is trying to make some kind of policy to control who owns guns and the NRA is not interested. It makes you wonder how come a group of gun totting people have no remorse for the innocent lives that are being taken without no gun control in the US!

(111,359 posts)You bet they're the same ones who have blocked everything. They're now complaining about it because they know their right wing base has a memory that doesn't allow them to remember breakfast, much less who is responsible for the gridlock in Congress.
This is the most pathetically stupid, pandering, and craven bunch of "candidates" I have ever seen in my life, and I'm old. In years gone by, you could count on at least one man on their stage making sense, although his poll numbers were in the basement because nobody on the right likes to hear anything particularly sensible. Not this year. None of them is presidential material. Ruthlessness is not intelligence, and I'm afraid ruthlessness is all that party has left.

(5,704 posts)status quo during election time. Not to mention that if you are not a paid up member you cannot participate during your election.
This is the first time in history I have seen so much pathetic candidates on the GOP side and may the Lord blast the US if Trump is the nominee and gets elected and Harper here in Canada gets elected. Then North America is fucked.
By the way, I always enjoy reading your posts.

Besides, bashing republicans here is the status quo. That's what this site is based upon.
We're here because we don't like the way they do business.

(11,649 posts)anything like this. back in '12 jon huntsman seemed to be sane -- so what happened? all he got was about 1% of the republican vote. not saying i would have voted for him. i'll never vote for a republican, but he didn't scare me like these clowns who are running now.

(21,755 posts)I would imagine that now the Republicans will pass a bunch of bullshit legislation, and then when Obama vetoes it, they will claim that he is the obstructionist. This will be their platform in the 2016 election. The government doesn't work under Democrats!
akbacchus_BC
(5,704 posts)that these fuckers would undermine him. They undermine so much that a retard, trump, saying that idiots are in Washington. I just hope President Obama use his executive pen to pass every legislation that he promised before leaving office.
By the way, if trump the clown gets elected, America will be fucked. God, I hope that fucker goes away like a fart!

(460 posts)seeing that they have gotten about 98% of what they wanted for the last 6 years.
Why should they change their winning strategy now?
I look at it this way, myself and many others could easily see what was going on with the GOP from the git go. So either Pres Obama was clueless or naive about what the GOP would do, which I doubt because he is not an idiot or it is what he really wanted because it is what the 1% wanted.
Choose clueless or naive then one admits that Pres Obama is not really qualified to be POTUS choose the other it was intentional then one admits who Pres Obama is really working for the 1%.
