Mamadunn and & I just got back from seeing "Obamas' America 2016".
It's a must see !! More like a documentary but well done and most informative. Without regard to one's political beliefs it tells an important story about the President, his origins, associates and goals. It's a MUST SEE ! !

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/28/2016-obama-america-fact-check_n_1835710.html

this movie is all about one's political beliefs...it states as fact things that are interpretations of events...highly subjective and often not accurate...it is politics and caters to one side and reinforces emotion and beliefs...this movie was done with complete regards to one's political beliefs.

Huffington Post and fact-check are two words RARELY used in the same sentence. In both instances (film and film review), consider the source..... Cool

Intent is prior to content. God teaches us that. Intense is the evil which does good deeds. Obama's sympathies are no less corrupt even when faced with having to make decisions he does not want to. Like killing Osama bin Laden or ordering attacks on other extremists. He wishes he didn't have to do that. He is the man who criticized Seal Team 6 as being a private military force of McCain's. Obama has to make his Constitution-destroying decisions tactfully and strategically, often disguising them as necessary and just. He is doing everything he can to force the American people to accept the Liberal mandate; Control and micro-manage the everyday life of the people.

His favorite approach to foreign policy is to improve the moral of our enemies by making us appear as weak as possible. This is very important to Obama as a means to allow islam to become more powerful and an America he hates to become subservient. His apologies and affirmations of our enemies make me want to puke. He is a snake, a liar and one hell of a smooth talker. It's too bad his actions don't reflect the candor and respect his speeches would imply... What a sorry excuse of a statesman.

Well put Fido.

He has a majority of our unschooled citizens (and some schooled) snowed. Just give them earned income credit, welfare, etc. and they really don't care if they become successful. They are just votes to him.

I'm glad the American spirit is very deep rooted in most of us. I have never seen the current state where people are starting to dispise the rich/successful and think they owe it to the gov to pay more taxes so others who do nothing can be taken care of. The fact that each and every one of us has an opportunity to be successful is what make us the greatest country on earth. Hope everyone goes out and votes this year

Not sure Schooling has anything to do with it!

He has plenty of well schooled and maybe even over schooled people on his team believing that we owe it to those who have not (and too lazy to go get it) to provide for their very existence. Sadly...


Just sayin!

Fido is right. Many of us on sports forums do understand. The problem is the masses that do not get it. And now it gets worse. Obama's new "in your face" attitude is troubling. His nominations, his attitude toward balancing the budget, His attack on our guns, him saying that he will not even talk about the credit limit (meaning no reduction in spending), on and on and on. With nobody to stop him, it looks like another long four years = only worse. I hope that we can survive him, but when you look at the crap that he has already gotten by with, it really doesn't look good.

I'm just looking forward to his Executive Order on firearms.

Can't wait.

Executive Order!

We'll see.

Anybody actually think an executive order to completely ban possesion of semi auto or military style rifles or high cap mags could be invoked and then... carried out in this land?

Now some form of restrictions going forward that most of us won't like, sure! but to actually collect our property! That's going to be more violent than any mass shooting in history.

Let the topic be reborn!!!

Speaking of which, I saw a comment of yours on a yahoo article yesterday something like "Time for a revolution, Mr. President?" or something like that. Such a small internet world.

That executive order would not be his first for which he should be impeached.

Consider this too: Three Supreme Court justices are most likely going to retire in the next four years. Can you imagine obama picking three young, liberal socialists to the LIFE-LONG appointment of Supreme Court Justice????? We are so screwed. I just hope i can make my money and get to Costa Rica before the government completely shuts down the American Dream! I just wont be able to afford to billfish here in 20-30 years if I stay.

Yes. Simple fact: 99% of gun owners are basically good law abiding people...who will be unwilling to risk a felony. IF he can get a bill through that bans AR's and the like, most people will whine and complain all the way down to the police station.

At that point, the hard core people are fully marginalized and easily labelled 'crackpots' who can be easily identified and dealt with.

Better not let it get to that point folks!
