He will change his mind about this, if the public's outrage against it is strong enough.

Last night, I had a weird dream.  Newt called me to ask for my vote.  He was running in 2012.(apparently, I slept through Obama's entire presidency)
I assured him, he had my vote.  :-)

Please, everybody, do not sleep through this presidency. We need everyone to be very vigilant.

Not a chance.  He is not aware of any mistakes on his part so far, and he plans to keep it that way.  After all....he is "The One".   :whatever:

so, let me get this straight...

the Commander-in-Chief, who supposedly cares for those of us who are in the armed services, now releases a man responsible for the murder of 17 sailors?  Are we supposed to believe him when he talks about protecting and working for our benefit?

Does he realize that the service men and women of this country are among the most respected members of our society?  Does he WANT to give the Republicans a massive hammer to hit him with in 2 years, 4 years, etc.?  Does he WANT to lose the majority in both houses?

Rove, you magnificent bastard...

Marxist and anti-American and apparent closet Muslim, if not terrorist sympathizer, Obama is simply doing what he's trained to do and also paying back favors.

He's also too ignorant, as are his advisers, to actually comprehend what you've said.

Obamanation? No, he's an abomination.

And lacks even basic respect for those who gave him the freedom to do what he's done politically and educationally and socially.

He's a dangerous man, to America and actually to his party, but they also too ignorant to understand that.

You knew the risks when you enlisted. If dozens, or hundreds or even thousands of US military personnel have to be sacrificed by Obama to regain our standing in the world and atone for Bush's warmongering that is the sacrifce we--ur-uhm--YOU will have to make. But I'm prepared for that and I can live with it.[/DUmmie]

They'll have to find out about it first.

It was on Fox this morning.  They interviewed a military guy (I didn't catch the name) who seemed as bewildered by this decision as we all are.  I was dumbfounded.  "Drop the charges???  WTF???"  His words were "for some unknown reason."

Being of a logical nature, I cannot fathom what this dipshit is thinking? His misadministration might find these proceedings "illegal"?!! WTF does that mean. Is he saying our military justice system during time of war is "illegal"???

If I'm not mistaken, we have used this same process since we became a nation. Is this guy living in a different country from me? Again, WTF???

I have Fox on now...

I don't know who was on this morning, but Shep Smith said a little while ago that the Commander of the Cole was "bewildered" that the charges would be dropped.

Obama is supposed to be meeting with family members of the lost souls on the Cole this afternoon(?) to explain his decision.

Seems like he should have met with them first instead of them hearing it on a television program.

It apparently has to do with him closing down Gitmo. The guy is saying that his confession was obtained by torture and water-boarding....and Obama says he was coerced and his confession would not be accepted in a US court then.

That's the way I understood Shep Smith to have explained it.

Maybe someone will take him out and just shoot the SOB before Gitmo closes......

Oh, yes, the meeting with the family members:

So? He made the decision to let them go before the invitation. Sold out, as we all are being, Muslim-style.

"Bewildered"? I'd like to know what the ship's captain said off-camera, and later to his wife and then his shipmates.

That's the way I understood Shep Smith to have explained it.

When I heard about Obama speaking with the families, which apparently also included families of those killed on 9/11, several things came immediately to mind.

One, I wanted to puke.

Two, I wanted to puke on him.

Three, I hoped that some of the families would scream at him and then puke on him.

Four, I hoped that this was all recorded for posterity.

This man has no conscience.

Just three weeks or so in office, I think that he really is a closet Muslim. That he really has a worse case of HUTA syndrome than I could've imagined.
 
That he's really just a windup doll for his handlers and others who, like him, hate America, its common people, its members of the Armed Forces, its everything--but love and hide behind its being a safe harbor for the likes of him, someone who can hate the very country that's given him this opportunity and the freedoms he has.

And, you bet, I resent his spitting on the military and the memory of those sailors.

As far as I'm concerned, we don't need some Biden-prophesied crisis to test Obama. What he's shown me already is that he's a coward and when, not if, America is attacked by Islamofascists or others, he'll fold immediately and surrender our sovereignty and national pride to the his fellow cowards, the terrorists and others who would destroy America.

He's beyond now being an embarrassment and a eunuch.

He is even more dangerous that I could've expected.

I am so very scared for my country.  This man scares me to death.  I've never been this uneasy before about a president and I've lived since 1950.  He's not only liberal, he's horribly liberal and trying to right all the perceived wrongs done to everyone.  To jack with the military like this is unforgiveable.  Our strongest and best have been attacked.  I am so offended (and I'm not military).  

Something has got to be done in terms of an uprising.  To physically hurt him, as some would see as an alternatiave, would only make him stronger and destroy any respect for the conservative agenda.  He must not be hurt, he must be taken down.  IMO

Somehow, I have a sense of it.

Obama is becoming a danger to not just America -- actually, he already is and was and will be, as long as he's in office -- but to his party and his puppeteers.

Wonder how long those two groups will tolerate him?

With the decisions he's already made in the short time in office, I really wonder if we will be able to survive his administration in our current form.

At least one family of a murdered Cole sailor refused to go to the White *flag* House to meet with POSOTUS. They said barack had already made up his mind, the charges dropped and there was nothing to talk about.

So, when are we going to see this man tested?  Perhaps only then will his cowardice be obvious to everyone.
Unfortunately, innocent lives will be lost when this happens.

Anyone seeing the Fall of Rome parrallels here?  Perhaps I'm being overly dramatic, but this is the beginning of the end of America as we know it.  Unless we can somehow take back the power before major damage is done.

His cowardice is already very evident to me.

He just pissed on the graves of the 17 US service members that died as a result of the terrorist attack on the USS Cole.

This man Obama is an absolute disgrace to the country.
