That's a Republican speciality.
Notice that the ostrich-like righties refuse to even acknowledge Obamas' accomplishments.
They're still smarting over the fact that Obama got Osama.
Yes, the FBI, as always, is doing a fine job of defending the nation from its enemies, foreign and domestic.....as this arrest proves.....
The FBI was created under Teddy Roosevelt, 26th President of the US....(REPUBLICAN AND PROGRESSIVE PARTY), war hero, veteran, Peace Prize winner, etc...
While the FBI stops terrorism, the TSA is molesting 6 years olds, stealing luggage, and enabling drug smugglers at the country's airports.....
Thankx for reminding us Jarod,

And Bush and the fear-crazed Islamophobic GOP started the TSA and DHS. Thanks for reminding us, Blabo.
Poor Blabo.
I'm all for giving Pres. Obama the credit for assassinating Osama, just as he deserves the credit for the collapse of the economy, joblessness, and the extravagant debt....
because I am above all, fair and balanced....

You're fairly unbalanced.
Post your evidence that Obama deserves the sole credit for the collapse of the economy, joblessness, and the 'extravagant' debt.
Poor Blabo.
Are you?
Then explain how Obama was responsible for the economy's collapse, when it collapsed several months before he took office?
This should be neat...
A sad mistake the continues and grows even more abhorrent under Obama and the Democrats......thankx for reminding me, AssWipe.

Obama administration continues to erode civil liberties
Obama: A disaster for civil liberties
Civil libertarians have long had a dysfunctional relationship with the Democratic Party, which treats them as a captive voting bloc with nowhere else to turn in elections. Not even this history, however, prepared civil libertarians for Obama. After the George W. Bush years, they were ready to fight to regain ground lost after Sept. 11. Historically, this country has tended to correct periods of heightened police powers with a pendulum swing back toward greater individual rights. Many were questioning the extreme measures taken by the Bush administration, especially after the disclosure of abuses and illegalities. Candidate Obama capitalized on this swing and portrayed himself as the champion of civil liberties.
However, President Obama not only retained the controversial Bush policies, he expanded on them. The earliest, and most startling, move came quickly. Soon after his election, various military and political figures reported that Obama reportedly promised Bush officials in private that no one would be investigated or prosecuted for torture. In his first year, Obama made good on that promise, announcing that no CIA employee would be prosecuted for torture. Later, his administration refused to prosecute any of the Bush officials responsible for ordering or justifying the program and embraced the "just following orders" defense for other officials, the very defense rejected by the United States at the Nuremberg trials after World War II.
Obama failed to close Guantanamo Bay as promised. He continued warrantless surveillance and military tribunals that denied defendants basic rights. He asserted the right to kill U.S. citizens he views as terrorists. His administration has fought to block dozens of public-interest lawsuits challenging privacy violations and presidential abuses.
But perhaps the biggest blow to civil liberties is what he has done to the movement itself. It has quieted to a whisper, muted by the power of Obama's personality and his symbolic importance as the first black president as well as the liberal who replaced Bush. Indeed, only a few days after he took office, the Nobel committee awarded him the Nobel Peace Prize without his having a single accomplishment to his credit beyond being elected. Many Democrats were, and remain, enraptured.

what happened to "don't feed the troll"?
If you missed my history lessons in the past, thats too bad,,,,your ignorance isn't my responsibility to fix....but stay tuned, the oppertunity might come again for me to repeat a lesson or two....
Who created the TSA?
Who appointed the Director of the FBI?
Who got credit everytime the FBI did something good when Bush was President?
Who took the blame when the FBI invaded the Branch Dividians leading to the death of many many people including lots of innocent children?

I was asked in such a nice way to give AssWipe a break if he actually posts something worth responding to, so I acquiesced...but I made no promises and I can't win the war alone.....I'm sure it won't last long and I'll have kept my side of the bargain...

I accept the surrender of the JPP conservatives, who, finding they cannot beat me in debate or get Damocles to ban me, have banded together in a desperate bid to ignore the facts I batter their weak arguments with.

technically, janet reno did, but we all know you liberals like to blame david koresh directly for that debacle.
No problem.....I often wondered why you sign your posts "Poor Blabo"...... I shall certainly address you as Poor Blabo in the future, If you insist....
