I don't believe the congress could possibly do as much damage to national security as Obama has already done.

dukem already corrected me. Thanks, IndianaGary.

Browsers are OK. Hijackers, not so much. I am definitely doing disrespect to objects.

She'll probably be back as a Presidential candidate.

"That's another fine mess you've gotten me into."

Everett McKinley Dirksen.

You aren't showing sufficient respect for Browsers or Hijackers.

Nothing new. I'm reminded of the "mindless spending increases" of Bush (W), Clinton, Bush (HW), Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, etc. Until we rest the ECONOMY out of the hands of government there will be nothing but "mindless spending increases".

Ah, yes. That tired old canard of "National Security". If you substitute "disturbing the status quo" whenever "national security" is used then the stories and agendas make more sense.

Which is very unfortunate.

What I'd love to see is an Amendment that states very clearly that Congress shall make no law requiring an expenditure of funds which extend beyond their own terms of service.

What it in effect would do is force Congress to continually re-ratify legislation already on the books to prevent it from automatically expiring - and taking their spending authority with it. All Congress would have to do to defund Social Security is refuse to re-ratify it even once every two years. There wouldn't be these huge perpetual entitlement programs because as soon as the other party took over, they'd choose not to renew the program.

This is a candidate for "rant of the day"! +1

Jeopardize our national security? That's all this
Creep-in-Chief does for this country!

Obama tells someone not to jeopardize national security?
Such is the jeopardizing essence of his very existence!
I can't wait for that walking talking cancer to finally wave bye-bye with Ovomit's smiling garbage for a "healthy" school lunch at his side.

But for politicians, it is long after they are out of office, and usually long after their deaths.

True, but eventually the money does run out and the bills come due. Of all the lessons that humanity is shockingly and willfully ignorant of it is that one: the reckoning does eventually come.

Gave you #5 upturned thumb.

Oh, I think he knows and does care. He wants to "fundamentally transform America", remember? I don't think enough people really understood that this statement was so blatant and audacious that most people would just write it off. How little they truly understood.

Obama doesn't like the freedom America was built on. He doesn't want people to be free to choose for themselves how they want to live, with whom they should do business, etc. He wants power and will stop at nothing short.

Having a friend in DHS (a Border Agent), I'll just add this: most of those guys are real patriots. They don't get paid well for the danger they take on. They do about as many drug busts as the FBI, as many illegals traffic. The biggest problem is that they didn't sign up for Obama to tell them how NOT to do their job.

I support Congress in telling the President to halt his actions in telling DHS what NOT to do - their jobs! Of course the best way to do this would be to impeach and convict him.

"A fine thing for him to say." Is this a reference to Laurel and Hardy perhaps? If it didn't affect me directly, perhaps I could laugh at Obama's bungling. What he needs is a good eye poke from Moe.

His primary qualifications are sealed by their respective institutions of lower learning.

when he was(?) that constitutional professor he supposedly taught students, has any person who took his class come forward to offer an opinion as to his qualifications?

Thank you. I stand corrected. Everett Dirksen.

this piss-ant living in the white has gall that is so big they will have to beat it to death. he has done more to hurt the national security of the USA than all other people living or dead ever. i am of the opinion that he simply dose not know what he is doing nor does he care. the question i have is who is he working for? i see the question should he be impeached no, he should resign. he does not know that he is not liked by a majority of the population and eventually that will include the majority of the black population. even MO doesn't like him.

Yep. And Oh Please, don't go spending any money on my account. I don't need/want anything this administration has to offer, or any other administration, come to that. Actually, they aren't spending anything on me anyway, unless it's for processing my tax returns.

It was Senator Everett Dirksen from Illinois, and he was talking in millions ('twas long ago in government time).
