LordAdam16:If you think its just these 10 instances - then you've either not lived here or are just being plain biased. I used to turn in to right wing media...heck I was a religious Breitbart follower at one point in time...I know all the nonsense those fake Christians said about Obama. Where do you think Trump got the stupid "war on Christmas" talk?? I saw with my own two eyes many hanging effigies of Obama that people simply wrote off as "free speech" - so I don't give a Bleep about whatever attacks Trump has been on the receiving end of. Republicans made life difficult for Clinton too. Infact, I think they don't nearly get the brunt of blame for that 94 crime bill. We know they pushed for it to be harsher but few people talk about it. No amount of "Judeo-Christian" talk will close my eyes to the hypocrisy of the right. The left does crazy things but so does the right. We'll keep playing this game till the party of God leads by example and stop this disingenuous nonsense of screaming the "radical left" when they get a taste of their own medicine. 2 Likes |

LordAdam16:Obama only had two years of congress control through out his eight years of presidency The republicans literally opposed everything Obama proposed to the extent of shutting down the government on three different occasions. 1)He ended two wars started by a republican president 2) Turned the economy around after the economic recession 3) Killed Osama bin Laden and some of Americas greatest enemies in the Middle east without starting a war 4) Handled the Arab spring without any major deployment of military to the middle east 5) Handled Ebola outbreak really well.

Trump's major test of leadership was the Covid 19 crises and he failed. He had a decent economy handed to him by Obama. Had very little confrontational issues in the middle east outside IsIs engagement. 2 Likes 1 Share |

When you see and hear a smart guy speak,you will know.. Everything Biden said here I support 100% especially the area he said he was going to reverse everything the buffon did but executive action and also the area of the police..Dude is gonna be successful mehn unlike the current Buffon..The lame duck president that is on his way out. Biden told civil rights leaders in private meeting that progressives' hopes for executive actions are 'way beyond the bounds' of his presidential authority President-elect Joe Biden expressed skepticism about his powers to implement his agenda by executive action Tuesday in a private virtual meeting with civil rights leaders, according to a recording reported Thursday by The Intercept. Biden told a group of seven leaders of civil rights organizations that some progressive Democrats are urging executive actions that are "way beyond the bounds" of a president's legal authority. The comments reflect what Biden has said publicly about the limited scope of executive action and the need for presidents to work with Congress to enact long-lasting policy. In the meeting, Biden said he planned to roll back everything President Donald Trump has done through executive action, rather than with the approval of Congress. He said he would use his powers "to undo every single damn thing this guy has done by executive authority." "I am not going to violate the Constitution. Executive authority that my progressive friends talk about is way beyond the bounds," he said. But, he said, he would not seek to use executive action to mandate policy changes that he has long said are up to Congress to make. Biden cited gun control as an example, saying that if he signed an executive order banning assault weapons, a future Republican president could undo that ban and use it as a precedent to drastically expand gun rights. "We do that, next guy comes along and says, 'Well, guess what? By executive order, I guess everybody can have machine guns again,' " he said. "So we gotta be careful." Audio of the call, obtained by The Intercept's Ryan Grim, was included in the publication's "Deconstructed" podcast Thursday, and at further length in a report on the progressive outlet's website. Asked about the audio obtained by The Intercept, a Biden transition official said: "President-elect Biden is the same person behind closed doors that he is in public; honest, direct and realistic about the challenges facing our nation the day he is sworn in. The remarks shared in the meeting reflect the same positions he has taken publicly on executive orders and like his predecessors he has the same levers of power to address immediate policy issues within the grounds of the Constitution." Biden's comments came as he continues to build out his Cabinet and piece together his early agenda. He'll enter office with a narrow House majority, but the Senate is still undecided. Democrats need to win both runoffs in Georgia on January 5 to take control of the chamber; otherwise, Republicans would remain in power. He faces a tumultuous moment, with Trump refusing to concede the election that he lost, many Republicans refusing to even acknowledge Biden's victory and fractures within the Democratic Party coming into view, as progressives push Biden to pursue a bold agenda. Biden's decision Thursday to nominate Tom Vilsack for agriculture secretary, reprising the role he held in former President Barack Obama's administration, could incense the groups on Tuesday's call. NAACP President Derrick Johnson warned Biden on the call that selecting Vilsack would anger Black farmers in Georgia. He pointed to Vilsack's 2010 firing of Shirley Sherrod, then the Georgia state director of rural development for the Department of Agriculture, after the right-wing website Breitbart publicized parts of a speech she had given that were later revealed to be out of context. Johnson told Biden that Sherrod is a hero to Black voters in Georgia. "Former Secretary Vilsack could have a disastrous impact on voters in Georgia. Shirley Sherrod is a civil rights legend, a hero," Johnson said in the meeting. But Biden dismissed Johnson's comment about Vilsack, The Intercept reported. He also said the topic of police reform should be avoided -- blaming the "defund the police" slogan adopted by some progressives for down-ballot Democratic losses in the 2020 election. "I also don't think we should get too far ahead ourselves on dealing with police reform in that, because they've already labeled us as being 'defund the police' anything we put forward in terms of the organizational structure to change policing -- which I promise you, will occur. Promise you," Biden said. "That's how they beat the living hell out of us across the country, saying that we're talking about defunding the police. We're not. We're talking about holding them accountable. We're talking about giving them money to do the right things. We're talking about putting more psychologists and psychiatrists on the telephones when the 911 calls through. We're talking about spending money to enable them to do their jobs better, not with more force, with less force and more understanding." https://edition.cnn.com/2020/12/10/politics/joe-biden-audio-civil-rights-leaders/index.html 3 Likes 1 Share |

One brainless idiot rolling around U S not achieving much will come here and say the Republicans are calling out trump about his lunacy of not accepting the results of the election. 106 Republican House of Representatives members are supporting Texas and 17 other Republican Red Neck States against Biden in the Supreme Court. Republican Party is now fully owned by the Vile Racist Trump and they will pay for it at the polls in 2022. That's 106 Republican Congressmen and Congresswomen trying undo the will of American people who voted for Biden as their next President. 5 Likes |

Kophschmerzen: Look at you justifying putting kids in cages because your liege built them. You've not explained how 100% increase in premiums by ACA in only 4 years is a good thing inspite of all your vituperations. Oh, and apparently Obama who was said to be leading the free world was fiddling his thumbs while France and the UK enacted the no-fly zone in Libya. Interestingly, Obama who you admit was "pussyfooting" on the Libya subject and also "pussyfooting" on Syria is the obvious knucklehead you'd "worship." Now you guys have handed Joe "I'm running for Senate" Biden the delicate task of accomplishing something Obama couldn't do. Reign in on Putin, Xi, Kim, The Ayatollah, Erdogan, and even the hawkish brats in Europe. And you wonder why America is going off the rails. Always reinforcing failure because there's a D in parentheses after the name. But conservatives are brainless when they applaud Trump for his Middle Eastern deals, for USMCA, for the opportunity zones, for getting NATO members to pay up, among many other accomplishments. The good thing is Biden will emerge from the basement and take his L in policymaking like the bugger that he clearly is. And like Clinton with China or Obama with Libya, it will be visible to the blind! -Lord |

While Biden won majority of swing districts in this election, Republicans in congress actually won the majority of the swing districts. So there's a good chance some people that voted For Biden also voted for other republicans.

Kophschmerzen: R*etard! Whose Secretary of State said "We came, we saw, he died"? I take back my previous assessment of your intelligence. I think your IQ is a negative integer. Only you admit Obama "pussyfooted" about Libya, then can't seem to remember his Secretary of State gloating about Qadafi's death after he was spanked into line by France and the UK. Under the same President where America lost its Ambassador to Libya. Putin made Obama his b*tch on Crimea, Syria, Iran. While Trump slapped more sanctions on Russia than any President since the end of the cold war. Xi was turned into a mannequin with the trade war, Huawei ban that resulted in China's golden tech company biting the dust and placing the founder's daughter in house arrest for months in Canada, aggressively prosecuting their spies in the US, and massive concessions on the first phase of the trade deal. Turns us Xi was an assh*le to the rest of the world and his favorability ratings in every country from US to Sudan is in the gutter after painstakingly building it for years. Erdogan has been crippled economically and Trump fulfilled his campaign promise of squashing ISIS and not staying a second more after that. ACA is a clusterf*ck and it has Obama's name all over it. That's his legacy! You're a certified NINCOMP**P! A complete airhead on any issue of significance. -Lord |

They are afraid of Trump and that's the only reason they can not stand up to him. Only very few of them can tell him to his face that the election is over and he lost. Trump will be an albatross on the neck of the Republican Party as long as he's alive and that will be very damaging to the Party of Lincoln.
