So an executive order is like speeding? That makes no sense.


Don't be silly. Jeff just said that Obama hasn't broken a law because he has not been convicted. Speeding was an analogy.

it seemed like Sasha was tugging on her dress - as many of us have done when we realize in actual 'use' our dress may be shorter than we'd realized. it sucked that she knew it/felt it and then a grown bitch had to say something about it.

also, maybe lauten was jealous that she doesn't have those type of 'tall girl' problems. sucks to be stumpy

He is not a legislator any more. A very experience lawyer told me that it was a damning statement. I'm not a lawyer.


The opinion of a very experienced lawyer is still an opinion. Get back to me when there is a conviction or an admission of breaking the law. Just as Obama is not a legislator, you are not a judge and jury -- and neither is the experienced lawyer.

Interesting article about John Roberts kids. Very snarky. Robin Givhan. Noah Rothman at Hotair.com provided the link.

I don't know who said them or what they said. Was it a member of a campaign or congressional staff? Because this thread is about what is appropriate for elected officials and their staffers.


Actually, it was a media person on MSNBC. She apologized for it. (I think it was Melissa Harris-Perry)
It happens from both the left and the right. Time to move on.

Absolutely. When you add up the many criticisms about the Obamas public appearance, it ads up to a coordinated campaign to say "those people do not look like they belong in the White House ". Go back and read the posts on this site.


Criticism=Racism? Wow. Sad. You know nothing about history if you think the attacks on Obama are worse than on others.




I didn't say criticism = racism. I said that the totality of the criticism about their appearance, in this particular case, is racist.

If you think lying to the country repeatedly (and yes, many presidents do this), feeling you're above everyone else, being militantly anti-patriotic, and having an entitled mindset is a great example, we can't help you.


Yeah, the president. Sheesh. One step away from Lucifer.


He's broken the law. Repeatedly. What law can we break and get away with, more so, get praise for?



The President has not been convicted nor admitted to breaking any laws. Therefore, you may think that he has broken laws, but it is only your opinion. You should be careful not to state opinion as fact.
