No Action

No matter the moment or the circumstance, there’s always a reason to make excuses for presidential inaction.

  • Inaction? I beg to differ!
    Mr Obama has been very busy AND productive:

    1) appointed Mr J. “THE job exporter” Immelt to head the Economic Advisory Board, has a zoo of advisors from criminal Wall street and had the execrable Rahm Emmanuel as chief of staff
    2) has retained the vast majority of Bush II’s US Attorneys
    3) created unnecessary (and failed) cat-food commission and appointed political roaches as co-chairs
    4) validated the FOX terrorist network by appearing on a superbowl Sunday in an interview with O’Rancid (will there be pill-popping with Rush to celebrate re-election?)
    5) renewed budget-crushing Bush tax cuts (when INACTION was all that was needed)
    6) makes more immigrant deportations than Bush
    7) pursues vigorous war on whistleblowers
    8) ignored the Congress and the Constitution to prosecute an unauthorized war in Libya
    9) has a penchant for government secrecy that makes Bush II look like “Mr Transparency”
    10) ignored own veto threat to secure for Willard the right to “indefinitely detain” US citizens on US soil
    11) expanded drone wars and developed “accounting methods” that considers all military-age males in a strike zone to be “combatants”
    12) had his “legal people” declare that he has the unchallengeable power to kill US citizens on foreign soil
    13) repeatedly commits acts of pathological bipartisanship with the brazen promulgators of resurgent American fascism

  • @falco:

    It might just be an extension of point “11)” but:

    created a secret “Kill list” whose partial enaction has revealed that at least two American citizens were on it, and were on there apparently for using their first amendment rights.

  • You guys are spot on and provide a lot of good speculation – Still, the dull populace ignores you, me and Ted. What is happening with Zimmerman is more interesting than Forex or other trends that might be more important. (the might is mighty mighty). I still maintain that both candidates share a common sickness, and that all the crying and whining about it will never reach the ears of the “people” while they drool their way through life. Anyways – for those of you who use the market, there will still be another uptick of the US Dollar for a while – but use it quickly, because it can disappear real fast.

  • This is how it has always been Ted, Democrat, Republican, it doesn’t matter, they all follow the same policy, none of which is what they actually campaign for.

  • A modern «Pilgrim’s Progress», Ted – the important thing is keeping the faith….
