Aren't they sworn to obey their Commander in Chief? <br /><br />2) Re President Obama and truthfulness: He gave himself away six months after being sworn in as President. A lot of presidents "lie" in terms of making campaign promises they don't keep etc, but Obama went on national TV and told a blatant lie in which he swore he hadn't raised taxes on anyone in his first six months in office. He said that just a few months after a grand ceremony in which he signed the SCHIP bill that raised taxes on 40 million American smokers by 150% and on two million Roll Your Own smokers by over TWO THOUSAND percent! A blatant lie, known by millions of people to be a blatant lie, told without a blink, and without even a murmur of dissent from the hostess, Meredith Vieira. See the 30 second video of it at: <br /><br />http://pro-choicesmokingdoctor.blogspot.com/2009/07/obama-in-bare-faced-lie.html <br /><br /> So the lying is nothing new. As I noted in <b>TobakkoNacht</b>, <i>“A democratic republic that allows its policies to be built on the basis of lies, and a citizenry that accepts those lies as being the norm, is a republic and citizenry in very deep and serious trouble.”</i> and that's EXACTLY what we've allowed to happen. <br /><br /> :/ <br /><br />MJMMichael J.

Even Obama supporters are learning their insurance premiums are going through the ceiling...they won't like that. His shutdown of DC is another factor most don't like.

I take no comfort in their oaths, belied as those have been by their actions--nor in their supposed competence, much less their authority. On <a href="http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2013/10/07/washington-post-explains-the-most-transparent-white-house-in-history/#comment-280334" rel="nofollow">Real Science</a> just this morning, I commented:<br /><br />"Everything they do is push, push, push, now, now, now (before there can be study or debate; before anyone can see what even the most likely and obvious bad consequences are, much less the full damage; before the real enemy(ies) can be identified and understood; and above all, before their base has the chance to think, instead of react emotionally, in knee-jerk fashion, with rote, misdirecting arguments--mostly in the 'we're good, you're bad, we won't listen to you' style). It is a criminal administration, supported by deluded, revenge-minded fools and a thoroughly corrupt media system--in fact, every system (educational, political, and the media) is broken now. And yes, both political parties are to blame--as are the other major divisions in our country and the wider world--it's just that the Left is the one that has gone insane and is determined to exterminate all opposition now. They are the immediate threat, to their own country, but their cult thinking blinds them to this, and they mistake the growing disaster for much-needed 'transformation'."Harry Dale Huffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210275295826050501noreply@blogger.com
