GostHacked Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I agree with the executive orders (though pretty much all recent presidents have done that). Executive orders circumnavigate the so called democratic process in the so called republic of the USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Nice try Boris. Now I see you trying to turn Canadians against the American President. Stick to Pravda and quit trying to antagonize Canadians to get upset with our friends to the South. True and loyal Americans would never do that. Домой российская изменника Thank you for your interesting response. Please be aware that like many others before you who have tried identical personal attacks and labels only end up spinning their wheels in frustration. Your off topic attacks only reinforce my premise of an underlying disdain and contempt for America, its government, and Americans. The bloom is off the rose for America's president, so fiercely embraced by Canadians in the beginning, but now there is little love to be found "in the provinces". Little surprise....President Obama is an American after all. Edited September 6, 2014 by bush_cheney2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Guy Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Thank you for your interesting response.

Little surprise....President Obama is an American after all. Hey Natasha, some of my best friends are Americans and I resent it when someone tries to come across as an American to taunt and tease Canadians - with the obvious goal to make Canadians upset with Americans. It will not work. No true American would ever do that. The fact that I have unmasked your pro-Russian agenda of trying to create a rift between these two great nations of Canada and the USA should not be a surprise to you. The strong relationship between these two nations can withstand the nefarious attacks from Moscow. I think Obama is doing what he thinks is best for Americans - and good for him!

bush_cheney2004 Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I think Obama is doing what he thinks is best for Americans - and good for him! Continued attacks noted, but ignored. Obviously you cannot bring yourself to endorse President Obama with the slurpy Canadian love displayed during his candidacy and earlier time in office. My theory is that many Canadians were drawn to Obamacare, like moths to a free health care flame. But that is over now....the reality of his Americanism shines through, and little love can be found.

sharkman Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 What was traded other than jabs and insults? Detail the quid pro quo that happened......other then the pork barreling to get votes. His record speaks for itself, dozens of bills signed into law. Some of them may well have been through horse trading for approval votes, that's how politics is done, been that way for a hundred years or more. Obama hasn't learned this yet. I remember early on his strategy seemed to be to remind the Houses, "I won", and they should simply vote his bills into law. Once he invited a group of congressmen to the White House to watch a highly anticipated college basketball game. It was reported that the Congress members were quite surprised that Obama just wanted to watch the game. He couldn't horse trade with republicans if his life depended on it, so nothing gets through Congress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjrr Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) What? You mean he does't go by B. Hussein Obama? I thought that's how he signed his name and how he introduced himself. Instances of the President incorporating his middle name in his usual signature are very rare. https://www.google.ca/search?q=barack+obama%27s+signature&safe=active&biw=768&bih=484&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=NfELVMi7JsqfyASV2YHwCQ&sqi=2&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ Those that do emphacise his middle name usually do so for derrogatory reasons. as its really not necessary for us to understand who we are talking about Edited September 7, 2014 by mjrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only golfing frequently, but going golfing right after speaking about Foley's be-heading. The guy just isn't into being president anymore. Maybe congress has him depressed?

Bob Macadoo Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 I thought you asked for examples of bipartisan legislation during the Bush administration…….I didn’t know you had qualifiers. The request was for hard to swallow legislation that passed as they got support for their submission before/after. I acknowledge bills were put forward that both supported (ie stimulus), the other needed for functioning gov't is compromising legislation for the more partisan aspects (eg. Cuts to welfare vs. Increase spending on education, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Macadoo Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 How do they disagree? How does the American constitution apply to somebody in another country who is not an American citizen?Well me in my disturbing brain connecting logic;1) There are majority parts of the constitution that apply to "persons".....ie non-citizens and citizens alike. 2) USSC has declared that the right of habeas corpus (one of those "person" rights) applied to detainees even though they weren't on american soil. 3) Ipso facto direct detainees of America, are considered "persons" under the constitution, and should be guarateed the rights therein. 4) Torture/interrogation comes at a price. I suggest you with your Southwest ON might should suggest to the 'merican gov't to shoot them in the head on the battlefield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
