    Sergeant Major, you KNOW there are certain lines even I don't cross. I'll have my say about his O-Uselessness the second he's out of office. I got ALL kinds of ideas about "disappearing" in the field.

    Good job "not my president"

    he he has also pardoned Gen. Cartwright, who leaked info on Stuxnet and was due for sentencing today.

    Now he he could just get around to Snowden and Assange...
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

    See how important Obama's false legacy is for anyone who CARES?

    If he is convinced he is such a Super, Wonderful President. Imagine what History will more often say about him.

    Obama REALLY WILL be remembered as..The Hands Down, Worst Ever, Wannabe President of the Socialist States of America. He's now, right up there with other notable failures like Mussolini, Khadafi, Hussein, Lennon, Marks, and Hitler.

    Hope he's proud in his new nation of CALIFORNICATION, where gabby can groom Obama's GOLF BALLS with kisses.

    Problem is AT, the left re-writes our history. They've given a pass to every Democrat and leftwingnut there is while just trashing Republicans. The media is part and parcel to the package.

    The dynamics make the deal. Conservatives are conservative. By definition. I'd like to see them fight back, but I ain't holding my breath waiting. Leftwingers on the other hand are like a damned virus. They spread their vitriol and hate any and everywhere they can.


    Notice that ever since Trump won, the left's recovery tactic has been to double down on their stupidity and viciousness. and they have just swamped the MSM with How Great Thou Art for Obama. They aren't going to quit and someone needs to fight back.

    Gunny. Agreed. But...WE are fighting back. It started with the Dems refusing to accept that TRUMP ACTUALLY BECOMES OUR PRESIDENT on Friday.
    If they choose to keep refusing. Great for them. The less they have to cheer about, the better for the rest of America who WILL BE CHEERING.
    The Dems can refuse to take advantage of everything that will help them if they like, and in doing so...How many will be any happier for four, or eight years?
    Much like all of us have suffered through the 8 years of DUMBO.
    I believe in being realistic, and pragmatic. If they Dems don't like something...SCREW 'EM.

    In due time gunny. In due time. We need to be patient, and watch what happens by NEXT Monday, after all of the celebrating is over.

    Long term. Nobody will ever PLEASE the whiners, idiots, dummies, and Democrats.

    It's nothing to clap about. When classified information is leaked, people usually die.

    Top Secret classification - EO 12356 states that the Top Secret classification level "shall be applied to information, the unauthorized disclosure of which reasonably could be expected to cause exceptionally grave damage to the national security i.e. a few million people could die if this information would fall into the hands of the enemy

    Secret classification - information in which the unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to the national security. - i.e. a few hundred thousand people could die if this information falls into the hands of the hands of the enemy


    Snowden should be tried for treason the minute he sets foot on American soil. I'm sure a lot of "assets" that supplied us with information died as a result of that guy. I think you'd feel differently if a member of your family was one of them.

    This is a disturbing pattern with El Presidente Incompetente. He takes the matter of classified information and national security so lightly that it's a wonder a major American city isn't a heap of radioactive ashes. I'm sure he had a hand in ensuring that Hillary Clinton's treasonous "carelessness" was met with little more than a mild scolding. She should be worrying about how many years of prison she will be facing rather than attending the Inauguration.

    Obama granting clemency to this brain-addled piece of crap is a slap in the face to all of
    us who honored the oaths we took, pledges we took to safeguard information.

    This out-going administration did not give a shit. Hillary gets off the hook likely because
    of intervention by Bill.

    Manning, s/he deserves to stay in prison. What was Obama trying to prove with this move?
    Sympathy for a soldier that could not identify with HIS birth gender.

    Something is seriously wrong with this.

    Some rather nasty, violent people also were pardoned. BTW, the FALN member from Chicago has 'no regrets,' for what he did:

    http://chicago.suntimes.com/politics...bama-clemency/

    CHICAGO 01/17/2017, 04:02pm Ex-leaders of FALN, Gangster Disciples get breaks from Obama


    President Obama has given significant sentencing breaks to two convicted felons with Chicago ties — a former leader of the FALN, which was tied to bombings across the United States in the fight for Puerto Rican independence, and an ex-top “governor” of the Gangster Disciples.

    Obama granted clemency to Oscar Lopez Rivera, 74, who was sentenced to 55 years in prison for his role in the struggle for independence for the U.S. island territory. He was part of the ultranationalist Armed Forces of National Liberation of FALN that has claimed responsibility for more than 100 bombings at public and commercial buildings in U.S. cities, including Chicago, New York and Washington, during the 1970s and ’80s.

    It is my sincerest hope that Manning has his man parts removed before release. What he does after that is his problem and at HIS expense....

    As for Noir, it is easy to poke at the issues undergone by others. Right up until that same sort of thing occurs for those such as he. Then the wailing and gnashing of teeth begins; along with the assertion that others MUST do something to relieve them of their plight.
