Nobody here claimed that. All we asked is you give him the same show you gave Obama.

I'm talking about the arra. You mean the cop arresting Henry Louis Gates for trying to get into his own home? Obama was right, the cop was stupid. Obama getting blamed for bad race relations is completely assanine. The amount of open racism spouted at Obama was insane. Did you hear what that fat ugly cunt Palendino said about him just a week ago?

Just like when Obama took the side of Michael Brown but didn't say fuck when the girl in San Fran was killed by the illegal immigrant. Michael Brown attacked the cop, per Black witnesses. But the AG took the side of Brown initially. I don't remember any of these riots under Bush.

That is so seriously petty, SG. Don't stoop to being part of the persecuted whitey crowd.

I actually looked up the Gates arrest for a refresher. And Obama apologized after conservative asshats had a persecuted whitey meltdown because a black guy had the nerve to spout off to a white officer. Basically, being uppity. And funny enough, the neighbor who called 911 backed up Gates version of the story. Gates was arrested in his own home and broke no laws. It was stupid.

BTW, remember when I said Megyn Kelly would end up on MSNBC? She just quit FOX and joined NBC.

If that's directed at me, I certainly haven't dedicated a page to praising Trump as Reagan, let alone 40.  The most favorable comment I've given him is that he's in the position to be a JFK or Reagan, which other pundits have said.  He's in a unique position to get the GOP to agree to things it never would have under a Democrat and no other Republican would propose.  1 Trillion in Infrastructure?!  Obama didn't even try that when he had both houses.  Reform to the tax code?  No one has seriously tried that.  And while I'll be the first to condemn the Iraq war (remember, I spent a year there and lost friends), but I'll also condemn Obama's foreign policy, specifically in the Libya and the ME. Whereas Bush went in there guns blazing, Obama acted just enough to destabilize the region and we now have a broken Libya, Syria and Iraq.  And if Syria turns around, Putin gets all the credit.  We're the sole superpower in the world.  I don't believe we have to be involved in every conflict, but when something on the scale of Iraq and Syria occurs and millions of migrants are heading into Europe as a direct result of our actions and inaction, I say we have an obligation to be involved.  Europe owns their own retarded refugee programs and they certainly have blood on their hands too, but the US is the primary culprit in this region.

If Trump is able to get shit done in congress, he automatically becomes more succesful than Obama has been the past 6 years, and let's be honest, his only real contribution was the ACA, which he struggled to get his own party to get behind.  As soon as that goes away, there's not really much his supporters can point to as a legacy.

A black man talking about race is "divisive" in their book or even racist.

Sometimes I think you guys exist in another reality entirely.

What was one of the first things the GOP wanted to do? 86 the ethics committee. What a shocker.

Now they're back peddling once the outrage boiled over.

I'd like to see the Republicans toss the ACA. It's not going to be as easy as they think it is, and not surprisingly after all these years they still have no replacement plan. Obama's plan WAS their plan, but lets not bother going into that one again. One thing is for sure, Ryan has his sites on gutting Medicare while he's at it, and he'll blame it on Obamacare when he does it.

Trump will have the congress and senate, so yeah, things will get passed, that doesn't necessarily = success. Had Obama had the conflicts of interests Trump does repubs would have served him his impeachment papers at his inaguration.

This is why I'm glad Trump is in office (puke) over someone like Pence or Cruz, because I don't think he will be able to handle the overwhelming explosion of anger when Ryan moves to kill medicare.
