Obama outdoes himself
Get a load of this. When asked to comment on the letter that forty-seven Republican senators sent to Iran saying that a future president could revoke any deal Obama makes, the president said:
“I think it’s somewhat ironic to see some members of Congress wanting to make common cause with the hardliners in Iran. It’s an unusual coalition,” Obama told the reporter.
Common cause? What is he talking about? Well, you see, the Republican letter-writers don’t want the deal to go through as is. And the Iranian hard-liners don’t want the deal to go through as is. So they have a common cause, which is thwarting Obama and the reasonable, friendly Iranians with whom he’s on the verge of agreement. Get it?
But Obama wasn’t finished:
I think what we’re going to focus on right now is actually seeing whether we can get a deal or not. And once we do — if we do — then we’ll be able to make the case to the American people, and I’m confident we’ll be able to implement it.”
Sounds a bit familiar, doesn’t it? Trust us, he is saying. Then afterwards—when it’s a fait accomplli and there’s nothing you can do about it—you’ll find out what’s in it.
Fool us once, fool us twice, fool us three times…actually, I’ve lost count.
[NOTE: More about the letter here.]
Yeah, he’s a peach. 682 days. Not that I ‘m counting or anything.
The inmates are running the asylum …
Call me when it is over …
I blame the voters …
TWICE!
He keeps getting away with it, so why should he worry?
I blame the voters, too. The first time for voting for him, the second for staying home and not voting against him. Love or hate the alternative, we’d probably have been better off.
He’s such a fraud and he gets away with it because of the media. To the extent that this is reported at all as a questionable statement, there will be mitigating discussions about the truthiness of the statement (those Republicans are, like, totally thwarting his plan), or procedural hand-wringing (how rude!), or how we don’t know but must assume that Obama is working in good faith on our behalf (WHY?). Kick the can down the road until Tehran has the bomb. Then somehow blame the Republicans.
If you disagree with Obama, you are ipso facto wrong.
And probably a racist.
It is all about Barack. 24/7.
“And once we do – if we do – then we’ll be able to make the case to the American people, and I’m confident we’ll be able to implement it.”
“We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”
Hmmm . . . who’s taking lessons from whom?
I said once, I’ll say it again, let me be clear,

What could possibly go wrong?
Carthago delenda est comes to mind. Plowed and salted.
Let the parrot speak
This guy is severely mentally ill.
Nonetheless considering his record so far and that 43% of the electorate still trust him after all the lies and treasonous errors his confidence appears justified. No President has come close to getting away with what this guy does. He is the first truly evil President in our history.
Good for the Republicans. They need to ignore tradition and the rules and just get things done.
The Democrats negotiated with the Sandinistas to undermine Reagan; Ted Kennedy negotiated with the Soviets to defeat Reagan. I’m sure there are more examples.
g6loq – I, too, blame the voters. Because I’ll bet you that a lot of them are going to agree with him on this.
I did make one more “unfriend” at the gym this weekend. This was before this letter, of course.
In the men’s locker room one guy, whom I have spoke with many a times, started up with politics; of course, this being a blue state, he started with “the Republicans are shooting themselves in the foot.” I cut him off by saying, “Oh, you must be one of those low-information voters who call it Faux News and think that we Republicans are all evil?” He shut right up and didn’t say another word.
I, for one, am going to be real rude to all those low-information, or left-wing, or hate-the-Republicans folks. They ARE the ones responsible for this mess. I’ll be darn if I’m going to let them continue to “lecture” me as well.
We can (and should) blame Obama and his kind; but, Yes, we do need to blame the voters. TWICE!
“I, for one, am going to be real rude to all those low-information, or left-wing, or hate-the-Republicans folks. ”
Shunning!
Time proven method.
We know what is coming.
It has happened before …
Soon.
TWANLOC are like some of these brain chemistry altering parasites:
Sacculina, which Carl Zimmer in ”Parasite Rex” calls a ”precise horror,” begins life as a free-swimming larva. The female larva settles on a crab, crawls to a joint in its leg, pokes a hole in it, and squeezes her soft parts through it into the crab’s insides, leaving behind the husk of her shell. She then makes her way, sluglike, to the abdomen and begins to feed on the nutrients that the crab digests. She forms a bulge in its shell as she grows and sends extensions of her own body, called ”roots,” throughout the crab’s body, even to its eye stalks. Soon the crab no longer grows or molts its shell and cannot make eggs or sperm; it’s a ”walking corpse,” as Zimmer describes it, living only to serve its relentless parasite.
This grotesquerie would have been enough to disgust Darwin’s Victorian audience, but there’s more. A pinhole opening in the crab’s abdomen, made by the female Sacculina, attracts the tiny male, who injects himself into the crab much as the female did. They fertilize each other for the rest of their lives; but to compound the insult, they manipulate the crab’s hormonal system so that the crab periodically climbs a high rock, squeezes out the parasite’s larvae and waves its claws in the water to speed them on their way — just as it would do for its own offspring: Parasite Rex
Yeah, we too can play the demonization game …
TWICE!
Once, happenstance, twice, enemy action.
AMartel: He gets away with it because he’s half African.
“whether we can get a deal or not. And once we do …”
Done deal.
I’m tired of Obama. I don’t have any good solutions for Iran. There probably aren’t any. But I’m sure Obama hasn’t a clue either and it is like watching a horror movie you know is going to end badly.
I’m into keeping my head down and just waiting him out hoping a Republican president will aggressively undo what’s he’s screwed up – mostly on purpose.
So I’m not sure why I started listening to Ed Klein’s book ‘The Amateur’. It’s more scary than ‘The Shining’ and ‘Poltergeist’ rolled into one.
How did this guy manage to get elected president?

I’m missing something here. As I understand it, Tom Cotton et al sent a letter to Iran… explaining how our Constitutional system works. He did not try to strike any deals, nor torpedo any other deals. He might as well have sent a gift-wrapped copy of “The U.S. Constitution for Dummies”.
In what manner is this “finding common cause” with the “hardliners in Iran”? And if it is, isn’t the President doing all that and more?
So why is the President upset about this? I assume it’s because, as with Netanyahu’s speech, Washington legislators are going behind his back — as he’s been going behind their backs for years — and he doesn’t like it when the shoe is on the other foot. It may also have something to do with this marvelous deal, which is so wonderful that it must be passed before the President is “able to make the case to the American people”… and that the President doesn’t want anyone to stand in the way of his tremendous achievement.
Co-equal branches of government, baby.
‘In what manner is this “finding common cause” with the “hardliners in Iran”? ‘
Very simply: if one respects and relies on the U.S. Constitution, one becomes, by definition, a hard-core, reactionary, neo-con, extremist, misogynist, racist, patriotic, enemy-of-the-people Republican.
Who must be silenced and/or punished, but certainly condemned and despised, for the good of one and all.
Yes, it’s all very simple.
Which is why Obama and his progressive clique of radical revolutionaries must shred that Dead-White-Male piece of useless parchment with all deliberate speed.
One thing the letter has going for it: Veto proof.
We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.
Worst. President. Ever.
More Despicable by the week. The Malignant Narcissism is ballooning by the day. Superior is what he is. Midgets is what we critical thinkers are. Undeserving is what America is.
Are we not Blesses?

“In what manner is this “finding common cause” with the “hardliners in Iran”? And if it is, isn’t the President doing all that and more?”
Finding common cause:
Picking his way through the Soviet archives that Boris Yeltsin had just thrown open, in 1991 Tim Sebastian, a reporter for the London Times, came across an arresting memorandum. Composed in 1983 by Victor Chebrikov, the top man at the KGB, the memorandum was addressed to Yuri Andropov, the top man in the entire USSR. The subject: Sen. Edward Kennedy.
“On 9-10 May of this year,” the May 14 memorandum explained, “Sen. Edward Kennedy’s close friend and trusted confidant [John] Tunney was in Moscow.” (Tunney was Kennedy’s law school roommate and a former Democratic senator from California.) “The senator charged Tunney to convey the following message, through confidential contacts, to the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Y. Andropov.”
Kennedy’s message was simple. He proposed an unabashed quid pro quo. Kennedy would lend Andropov a hand in dealing with President Reagan. In return, the Soviet leader would lend the Democratic Party a hand in challenging Reagan in the 1984 presidential election. “The only real potential threats to Reagan are problems of war and peace and Soviet-American relations,” the memorandum stated. “These issues, according to the senator, will without a doubt become the most important of the election campaign.” : Traitor
The left always accuses you of that they’ve been doing ….

Understand that aspect and deal with it accordingly.

I read an interesting article on American Thinker that explains how the Iranian deal is Sharia compliant. It was my Ah-ha moment. http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/03/obamas_shariacompliant_truce_with_iran.html

Oh, the projection. It is Obama who is aiding and abetting Iran’s nuclear weapons ambitions. And he only gives high capacity guns to Mexican cartels. What a bigot.
How many unsuspecting people died from the US government issued guns to the Mexican cartels?

“Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn’t even be there,

Fools are on the Throne of Power. Since America’s a democracy, that kind of means the guy on the couch is a fool, doesn’t it. One way or another.
Hussein Obola is a minor irritant of a tyrant in the Left’s arsenal, when compared to their Full arsenal of Powers and Dominions. If people thought “voting people” out would work against the Left’s grand strategy, they must have failed that strategic assessment too many times to count.
This is why Obama gets away with this kind of junk; from US News and World Report:
“GOP Senators Probably Broke Law With Iran Letter”
Reads the headline.
http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2015/03/10/gop-senators-probably-broke-law-with-iran-letter
Most low information voters won’t read beyond that and realize that the whole article is a load of junk. It is a law from 1799 and unconstitutional.
Most low-information voters (and that includes most Democrat voters) will just shake their heads thinking there go those evil Republicans again.

You can praise the anti Iraq bufoons for supporting that notion of war and law being our masters too.
