23. And the Obama Admin is still wondering why the Dem base is not motivated to vote in Nov?
   
Guess those Ivy League school educations are overrated.

24. Shocked, I say...
   
... I am just shocked that our "progressive" President would do such a thing.

Again and again and again.

Lots more would die more quickly if we didn't spend so much on AIDS research.

    IIRC every previous administration has requested the resignations of all the US attorneys and accepted those submitted by appointees of the opposing party.

    The Obama admin did not do this. And remember many of the US attorneys appointed by the cheney/bush gang were religous ideologues, recruited out of wing nut diploma mills by karl rove and his henchmen. So this DOJ is still full of lots of people at the working level who have a theological objection to gay marriage.

    Of course the AG can overrule these religious wackos, but this AG has shown no inclination to act like he is in charge. Like why is Don Siegelman still in prison?

    I think they will get their ears pinned back on this appeal which will make them look even more inept.

    And we may as well give up any hope of seeing the war criminals that got us into these cluster**** entanglements prosecuted.

Many of the Bush appointees were never given hearings and their benches went unfilled. That is one reason there is so many vacancies for Obumbler to fill.  He hasn't even named enough to fill half of the vacancies.

Well, I'm shocked, shocked I say, that BlueNorthWest didn't chime in on the (very boring) thread.  That guy is a militant Ghey.  He thinks about his Gheyness 24 hours a day, so much so that he believes that opposite sex relationships are to be maligned.  A real weirdo.

Since when can a judge dictate what the military does in the first frikkin' place? If they start tryin' to go all "Constitutional Rights" on the military, it won't be able to defend the damn country!

If I'm not mistaken, you give up a heckuva lot of rights in order to have the privilege to serve! The Constitution doesn't override military obedience, for cripes sake! Who the hell would be in charge?
