It absolutely fits his M.O. And he's a liar, too.

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

We're only at the beginning of all three scandals. Step by step they will all continue to unfold on their own. The small fish will lead to the bigger fish, and the bigger fish will lead to the top fish. Look for a few firings inside the White House soon to include Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, and White House Chief Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler. Also Eric Holder signed and approved the Fox News Reporter James Rosen's phone tap, using the Espionage Act as cause. He's likely to be gone very soon too. All three of them will be called to testify under oath before Congress. These proceedings are going to go on and on for years. By the time Obama goes on tv to say he's not a crook, the only difference between him and Nixon will be that Nixon didn't use a teleprompter to say it.

When even the Huffington Post turns on the Obama Administration something is surely rotten in Denmark.

Sigh...yeah, everything you said, Shiny. Our righties are on a tear; they want to focus on nothing but this bullshit for as long as they can make it last and ignore absolutely everything else. Nothing to do but let them keep spamming the board until it's over, they're having too much fun. We could always, y'know, only reply in one or two threads on the same issue...but they'll probably just put up more and more threads, anything and everything they can find...and you know they will. Such is life.

This too shall piss, er, PASS...

Maybe I'll just name new threads "Your (fill in the day) Dose of Criminal Activity From The Obama Administration", for even some more fun.

This is part the the Repub strategy for Obama's second term: Dig up irrelvent stuff from the past... STUFF THEY KNEW ABOUT A YEAR AGO.... and just ride that friggin' hobby-horse so they can bring up.... (wait for it...) ... OBAMACARE for the 32nd time. Then dig up MORE irrelevant shit from the past.

There are in fact more important things for the Republicans to be complaining about. But the parts that are really bad, like authorizing "boots on ground" military forces inside the USA, universal surveillance, drone strikes of American citizens, and indefinite preventive detention ... the Republicans are all on-board with.

I forgot for a split, who we are dealing with. Logic and common sense isn't in their dictionary.

"I supported Bush in 2000 and 2004 and intellegence [sic] had very little to do with that decision." - Hero

"I was wrong" - Hero, 2012

Mitt Romney, introducing his running mate: "Join me in welcoming the next President of the United States, Paul Ryan!"

Rappy's response? "You're lying, gullible ( believing in some BS you heard on msnbc ) or hard of hearing."

You are right about one thing......................

The Republican controlled Congress will milk this for years and conduct meaningless, redundant hearings to make it seem that they actually care about this country.

This instead of actually writing laws and bills that will move this country forward. The only thing that will get done is they will make sure to build up the fact that they held these hearings and emphasize their re-election bid. Whether you like Obama or not, there's still the business of moving this country forward. Focusing in on the negative is what their good at, and nothing more. Imagine trying to repeal a law 37 times and failing miserably each time, doesn't get any better than that. Only in America! What a country!

The good little useful idiots, all lining up to decry the scandals as much ado about nothing...

Seriously, what little hope i had for not just this nation, but humanity as a whole, is dwindling.

Would you guys please get your head out Rachel Maddow's lap and just LOOK at what is actually going on here ?
