Some examples of DC Idiocracy
« on: August 25, 2015, 05:43:56 PM »
Barack Obama cut a deal with Iran to supposedly stop it from getting nukes. Setting aside the fact that it doesn’t do that, Iran is holding four American hostages. Obama didn’t even bother to demand that they be freed before he began releasing billions of dollars to Iran.

He also allowed Iran to inspect its own nuclear sites. Think about that. We think Iran is working on nuclear weapons; so to prove that it’s not, we’re going to let Iran inspect its own sites and say, “Nope, there’s certainly nothing nefarious going on here. Take our word for it, Great Satan!”

To top it all off, Obama admits the money we’re releasing to Iran will be used to fund terrorism. I know that Obama thinks that whole “war on terrorism“ thing is passé, but should we really be funding terrorists who hate us now? Is there ever a good time for that?

President Obama has ordered a complete restructuring of the American energy sector through regulatory fiat. His Clean Power Plan, the New Testament for the Church of Climate Change, gives the Environmental Protection Agency the kind of authority that not even the president is provided.   A Plan that will save all of humanity from the non-threat that is global warming. It aims to reduce carbon emissions by nearly 30 percent from 2005 levels by 2025.

The EPA will coerce states into adopting policies that would never pass Congress — the abandonment of coal-fired power, cap-and-trade schemes, more aggressive transitions to more costly green power — to meet the arbitrary goal of reducing the country's carbon emissions 32 percent by 2030 from 2005 levels.

In the process, this will dramatically increase power costs, stifle economic growth, reduce standards of living, decrease the reliability of the power grid, regulatory costs will soar into the hundreds of billions of dollars, millions of jobs from black and Hispanic communities will be gutted, fixed-income seniors will have their budgets nuked by rising energy costs, and the plan pretty much punishes states that didn’t vote for Obama in 2012

When the government catches illegal aliens, it frequently just releases them and asks them to show up for a deportation hearing? Unsurprisingly, as many as 90% of illegals that are caught don’t show up so they can be deported. But don’t worry, the Department of Homeland Security is on the case!

Officials with the Department of Homeland Security reiterated all those caught crossing the border after Jan. 1 are a top priority to have their cases decided in immigration court and to track down those who’ve disappeared.

If it’s top priority to find the illegal immigrants who didn’t show up to be deported, maybe they shouldn’t have released them in the first place? Hey, aren’t these the same people that are protecting the country from another 9/11?  Sleep well tonight!

Senator Mitch McConnell’s favorite negotiating tactic is to declare that Republicans won’t shut down the government right before he starts telling Obama what he wants. Even Obama, who’s about as sharp as a bowl of spaghetti, knows all he has to do is wait until he gets close to the deadline for a shutdown to get everything he wants.

McConnell’s counterpart in the House, John Boehner, is just as habitually incompetent. His idea to stop Obama’s illegal immigration policy was to refuse to fund the Department of Homeland Security until Obama gave in. Then, when Obama refused to give in, Boehner immediately caved because the Department of Homeland Security is important and he couldn’t risk defunding it.

Before you laugh at Democrats for voting people like William Jefferson and Marion Barry into office, remember that the two most powerful Republicans in America today are John Boehner and Mitch McConnell. Choosing these two idiots as leaders is every bit as embarrassing as selecting a mayor who smokes crack or a congressman with bribe money in his freezer.

Our whole nation is being dragged under by legions of arrogant Cletuses in D.C. who’re convinced they’re geniuses because they’re surrounded by aides who tell them how wonderful they are all the live-long day. Our country is headed full steam toward an iceberg and the people steering the ship are imbeciles

But, yea, bigger is better      :o

And what were you projecting, with the 'arrogant Cletuses' remark?

Nothing being projected......just an inferrence of folks who seem to be acutely lacking any sense of logic or common sense, in positions of power and the ability to mandate what the rest of us have to accept

sirs like the words "projection" and "deflection". Perhaps because they rhyme.
He rarely speaks of convection and only rarely of protection, when it deals with guns.
selection, objection, dejection and rejection also rhyme, but he fancies the first two more.

Naaa....because they're applicable to a certain poster's efforts at trying to defend the indefensible

Nothing you say is defensible.
