I'm not the one who made some claim with no commentary to back it up, you're the one who stated a position not me. But if you want an answer to what's sad, the answer is you. I find your positions, lack of reason and inability to see beyond your religious and political blinders to be very depressing.
I'm sorry, but anyone who continues to support Barack Obama is guilty of religious and political blinders. Since when is our Department of Justice in the business of illegally persecuting, libeling, and slandering citizens acquitted by a jury? Since when is our Department of Justice, an executive branch office, in the business of maliciously and deliberately politicizing situations in an untrue manner? And, finally, since when is our President allowed to get on national TV and REPEAT lies we have records to believe they started in the first place?
Obama claims to the be the first post-racial President; so, tell me, why can't he or Eric Holder figure out George Zimmerman isn't white? Why are they playing into the Black vs. Caucasian race rhetoric with this situation?
Our current President is a disgusting, duplicitous human being who cares only about his own public appearance and political expedience, and then his supporters believe he does great things.
No, I'm sorry, Aizle, the one with religious and political blinders is you. Barack Obama is a bad President, a bad politician, and a bad person, and even Democrats should be appalled by his behavior. So, in case you aren't keeping score, even if we take George Zimmerman out of the picture ...
1. The Affordable Care Act has destroyed the labor market and affected every working individual in the United States. On just the Federal government's side, they've cut Tri-Care benefits about 40% across the board to make sure our military and government service employees didn't have Cadillac policies; and that's about the same thing almost all of our employers did with our group plans. But less than 3 months ago, Barack Obama was telling us ALL how it would have 0 impact on us. He was lying to your face.
Nevermind that full implementation was delayed until the last year of his presidency, right? We don't want to talk about the fact that the Affordable Care Act is 100% responsible for the current stagnation in our employment sector and a complete overhaul of our post-secondary education system. You don't work for a university, so let me just put it in simple terms:
Complying with the ACA is no less than a 40% operating cost increase for EVERY university in the country.
2. Congress is currently under orders from the President to deal with the Student Loan Interest Rate crisis. They have passed another bill drafted by the White House. Well, first things first: the interest rates doubled in March, not on the first of July. Secondly, the bill passed chains student loan interest to the 10 year Treasury Note plus 4.8%. Oddly enough, that works out to 6.8% and creates a variable interest loan out of ALL student loans, and while there is a mention of an 8.25% hard cap on student loan interest in the bill, there appear to be enough loopholes that the rates will go higher. But, you know, he keeps blaming the Republicans who wanted to re-instate the hard cap of 3.4%.
3. Barack Obama is actively pursuing gun control legislation. I guess, when Obama told Hunters and Sportsmen that he had no intention of pursuing any gun control legislation in 2 separate Presidential campaigns, he was just misinformed by his handlers?
4. The Supreme Court got a chance to overturn DOMA because Barack Obama told the Justice Department to enforce it. How is it no one ever had grounds to get a case to the Supreme Court on the issue before? Oh, right, despite signing it into law, Clinton prevented it from being enforced; as did George W. Bush. Are you going to give Obama credit for a SCOTUS decision of very questionable jurisdiction and whose existence was made possible by Obama enforcing a law he said he didn't support? There's some incongruity there ...
Which reminds me, Federal solicitors were assisting the State of California in its case to uphold Proposition 8.
5. How about the fact that while the U.S. Government owned General Motors (it actually still does, being principle holder of Preferred Stock still, but Obama won't admit to that) they stripped franchise licenses from 1300 dealerships -- all of whom contributed to his opposition candidates in the 2008 election cycle? Political retribution is, after all, something he's definitely about ...
How about ordering a recall that cost Toyota billions and functionally destroyed their brand image over "stuck accelerators"? You remember that right? The federal government petitioned the Courts for that recall? You know that the Court and every 3rd party group they had investigate it found no proof of any defect? And that even if they granted all 27 claims of stuck accelerators 100% credence, Toyota was required spend about $3000 each fixing some 7 million cars over that nonsense?
I could go on and on and on ... and we could quibble about these things ...
But, let's get down to it. When the Attorney General Eric Holder, appointed by Obama, answering to Obama, and beholden to Obama's directives, begins a criminal operations to persecute, marginalize, and politically harass an American citizen, and he is doing so (quote obviously given the content of the speech in question) under the direction of the President, none of the rest of that list matters. He's a vile, disgusting human being, and I am appalled that other citizens continue to support him and his Presidency.
It no longer matters what YOU or any liberal in America thinks George Zimmerman did. There's no dialogue on race relations to be had over Trayvon Martin and his Skittles. Institutional racism didn't fail to convict George Zimmerman. But, you know ...
A President who claims to have taught Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago, but never taught a single class at the University, ever, is engaged in criminal persecution and using the Federal Department of Justice to do it.
Yeah, there's something sad in this thread ... You not wholesale rejecting a President that is hostile to EVERYTHING our Constitution supposedly protects.
Nitefox is right; you're still drinking the Kool-Aid.
