QUESTIONS FOR TODAY

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) performed in the following important areas?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) been truthful? Is his “If you like your plan you can keep your plan” an example of his idea of truthfulness? Was it when he said it?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done with the expansion of the massive Welfare State in the U.S.? How big should the Welfare State be allowed to become?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done enforcing immigration laws? Has he followed those laws as well as he has followed the ObamaCare law?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done controlling deficit spending? Has deficit spending increased proportionately with its expansion under former presidents or has it expanded more than all of the others put together?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done exploiting the Zimmerman trial, the Gosnell murders and other instances on which he has commented or failed to comment?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done giving millions of dollars to the abortion industry, both under the guise of welfare and of health care? Has he taken actions in his lives as a community organizer, senator or president to abate infanticide in this country?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done with his support of so-called “green energy?” How well have the companies he has supported with tax payer money done? Have those “investments” paid off or failed?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) handled the Justice Department’s Fast and Furious scandal?  Did he know about it, or was he kept in the dark? If he was kept in the dark, why haven’t those who kept him in the dark been summarily dismissed? If he know about it, why didn’t he stop it?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done with arming terrorists overseas? Has he taken steps to be certain that those who would (by their own admission) destroy the U.S. would never be able to do so?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) dealt with the issue of spying on journalists? Has he ensured that we will continue to have a free press, or has he tried to suppress it?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done with religious liberty in our country? Has he fought to preserve it or has he looked the other way when it was usurped?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) handled the IRS targeting of certain groups? After saying he wanted to get to the bottom of the issue, did he do anything about it? Does his administration continue to defend it, or to deny it ever happened?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) dealt with the truth about Benghazi? After he told us he would find the responsible parties and bring them to justice, has he found anyone? Has he tried anyone?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) been truthful about the recent “government shutdown?” After Republicans tried to pass several bills that would fund the government, did he then pretend that Republicans were responsible for the shutdown, or did he admit that he allowed it to happen because ObamaCare was much more important to him than a government shutdown?

How well has President BO (the man who would be king) done with his handling of the shutdown? Did he close any facilities or memorials that were largely funded by private enterprise and not the government? Did he spend tax payer dollars to block off and guard open air monuments when it would have been better to just let them be? Did he try to stop WW2 veterans from visiting their own, privately funded WW2 memorial?
How well has President BO (the man who would be king) understood that places like the Lincoln Memorial have NEVER been shut down because of a government shutdown in the history of this country? Did he deliberately break with that practice, or did he just not know it existed?

So, in the end, how well has President BO (the man who would be king) done in his tenure? Are these just irrelevant questions or do they point to a basic short-coming of his ability to preside over, protect and defend our Constitution? Did his oath to do so carry as much truth as his ObamaCare promises?

Joe - Welcome back. I'm sure that even the President who would be king missed you. Look at all the attention that you give him.

Ducky's here said...

In fact Joe they are largely irrelevant questions.

I don't know what you have in mind when you go on about religious liberty but I suspect you mean that your religious beliefs are no longer unassailable. That INCREASES religious freedom.

The IRS scandal? No scandal at all but I do think it is a disgrace that political groups were allowed to gain tax exempt status under a public service guise.

Benghazi? You'll see how much of a "scandal" that was when rabies media starts alienating moderate voters with that noise during Hillary's campaign.

Immigration? You mean the illegal immigration that absolutely exploded under the Republican administration of Chucklenuts Bush?
Obama has done a fairly effective job of enforcement. Certainly better than Chucklenuts.

Joe are you aware that abortions under prescribed conditions are legal?

If there is coverage for legal medical procedures I don't understand your belief that your religious convictions should be given any precedence.

As for his foreign policy and destructive weapons.
I think the movement to remove chemical agents from Syria is positive although there isn't much to do but pick sides in that benighted country.
Talks with Iran are a VERY positive step. I give him above passing marks on that issue.

Joe said...

sh: I'm sure he's glad I'm "back."

Ducky: Regarding your first comment(s):You think just like a liberal and you consider that a compliment. It isn't.

"...are you aware that abortions under prescribed conditions are legal?"

Yes.

"...your religious convictions should be given any precedence."

They can't. Why did you think I thought they could? Because PBO thinks he can change law by force of his voice?

"...I give him above passing marks on that issue."

Why am I not surprised?

You must be disappointed, Joe

... we didn't even have to bomb them or anything.

Glenn E. Chatfield said...

Yes Ducky, I'm really disappointed. We pulled a "Chamberlain" and sold Israel down the river.

Xavier Onassis said...

G.E.C. - We didn't sell anyone down the river.

We chose rationality over hysterical fear mongering.

We chose diplomacy over war. You know...like SANE people do.

Here is what you and the right wing nut jobs don't understand.

If Iran wants nukes, there isn't anything that the United States or Israel or Europe or anyone else can do to stop them!

You can't bomb knowledge! And the knowledge needed to build nuclear weapons has been readily available to anyone who wants it for DECADES!

The only way to stop a country from going nuclear is to convince them that they are better off without them. That is what the sanctions regime has accomplished and that is why Iran is ready to talk.

This is a success story.

Glenn E. Chatfield said...

X.O.

You demonstrate total ignorance of history, especially when it comes to Islam.

Nothing has changed but to leave Israel set for destruction.
