I honestly believe with this latest trick (the letter) and the last eight years of obstructionist behavior, America's greatest and most damaging enemy is right here at home and it is the Republican politicians who are destroying us from within.
 

I agree... I am so upset by this I could not resist the urge to call Senator Kirk's office again (R-il) to ask if the Senator had read the Associated Press report on what the Iranians now think of America.. and to ask him just how proud that makes him. I suggested he write a letter of apology to the President, and to the American people particularly the people of Illinois for what this has done.. and to let him know that he has about zero chance of beating Tammy Duckworth in 2016.. She is an American hero.. he is a traitor.

So other than sitting around on a forum posting about it, what are you doing to change it? Running for local elections? School board perhaps so you can help guide the school agenda to mirror your point of view? Local city or county government so you can help shape policy?
 
I believe it is time for Congress to tell the President that they do exist and can help him get things done per our Constitution for a change. That is something this President has forgotten to do so far in his 6 years and a bit. He seems to think there should be no consideration of his ideas, just go do them. It will be a good thing when he is finally gone and we have a new President in his place. It does not matter which party as either could easily have some one more interested in running the country by the Constitution rather than by the persons own idea of right and wrong. And whomever does get elected, one big item will be trying to fix Obama's over 10 trillion of new debt added to all of us to pay back.
 
I think the fact that people are aware and talking and like QS just demonstrated is doing something, is good too. The more talk there is, the better the likelihood that politicians are informed (like QS did) and people vote accordingly. Not everyone is meant to be a politician.

Any president of either party would be basing his understanding of your Constitution on his own idea of right and wrong. We are informed by our backgrounds, our life philosophy, religious beliefs, up bringings, etc. No one is free of 'their own idea' of right and wrong despite written documents to go by. Even with religion, how many churches agree exactly on the dogma of Christianity? Got a 2000 year old book to base it on and yet how many churches and different understandings of scripture are there?

I am too old to run for any office, but in my younger days I served on many neighborhood programs. Now, pretty much home bound based on my wife and my health issues. I am politically active in the area of supporting Democrat candidates and projects. One way I can help is telephone work which I have done and will do again this next election. Other than that If nothing else I can be here trying to make the President Obama hating, America bashing Republicans see there are folks out here who see them for what they are. Also I can irritate some of our Republican members, which is also somewhat rewarding to me.

So for the record Bob. Do you support the Republicans in their action of sending this letter to Iran? Do you agree it was the right thing for them to do?
 
I give to the Democrats and do what I can to support them, I keep informed and I'll speak up about ANY wrong I see.

The most useful support to any party is to stay informed.

This would be true it the person was born and raised in the US. Obama claims to have been born in Hawaii, then not yet a state, maybe. Then he was transported around in Islamic states with his mother and her Islamic husband, and there are pictures of him dressed in those styles. So in his younger learning years I wonder how much of the US culture did he pick up. Some of his early in the US years his best friends were of communist folks and far left socialists. So what else would he be doing but acting like a far left dictator type that he seems to be. Sure glad that in a year and a half he and his boot lickers will be gone. Time for a new and more American person of either party to take over and try to get the US back in order.
 
I already have and it was 1959 but I don't know how old Obama is, so I left it a question. The numbers I posted would give us 56. How old is Obama anyway. He was one of our youngest to get elected. In my post I left my sentence with a question mark to indicate my uncertain answer.

OK, just looked it up. Obama is now 53 so he was born in a US state.

Maybe you should look it up BEFORE you go flinging accusations!

Do you know that to be true? Or had she looked it up just as I was.

Oh Bob, go find another nit to pick. Did you ever tell us if you approve of "the Letter"? Boring!!!
