Obama veto's Keystone XL bill - NOT SMART!

Now here is a brilliant idea. Thanks for the VETO Obama! But - what is your replacement for the oil and coal that keeps our country alive and progressive? What will we do when the oil runs dry, and the Arabs suck the money out of our bank accounts because we can't get our own domestic oil and gas out of the ground, and we can't generate electricity because you've shut down all the coal driven generating stations? It will be "back to the stone age" for us! And no, windmills are not more ecologically friendly - they kill birds, and use tons of carbon to create them, move them into position, and maintain them. Solar panels or other solar generation? What a joke! You would need to bulldoze a third of the United States to generate the power we need - and then you need to replace the equipment every 20 years or so! I am really tired of all the stinking, non-thinking, whale watching liberals who only care about their own personal interests, and don't envision how their plan will play out in the long run. These are the same people who promote "no kill" animal shelters, which fill up quickly, putting more and more strays out on the street to die in painful agony. Wake up America! Yes, we need to pump cash into finding an alternative to oil and coal and natural gas - but we can't give up on what we have until there is an alternative in place!

Obama rejects Keystone XL bill

Washington (CNN)President Barack Obama, exercising his veto power for the first time in five years, rejected on Tuesday a measure green-lighting the construction of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline.

Obama's signature denying the Keystone bill kicks off what's expected to be a flurry of vetoes on measures that Republicans will send to the White House now they control both chambers of Congress. The President has already threatened to reject 13 GOP-sponsored pieces of legislation, including bills rolling back the Affordable Care Act and reversing his executive action on immigration.

On Keystone, it appears unlikely GOP lawmakers will be able to reverse Obama's veto. The threshold for overriding a President's veto is a two-thirds vote in each chamber of Congress.

President Obama doesn’t love America

Rudy Giuliani: President Obama doesn't love America
The former New York mayor makes his remarks at a Scott Walker event.
By DARREN SAMUELSOHN 2/18/15 11:29 PM EST

NEW YORK — Rudy Giuliani went straight for the jugular Wednesday night during a private group dinner here featuring Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker by openly questioning whether President Barack Obama “loves America.”

The former New York mayor, speaking in front of the 2016 Republican presidential contender and about 60 right-leaning business executives and conservative media types, directly challenged Obama’s patriotism, discussing what he called weak foreign policy decisions and questionable public remarks when confronting terrorists.

“I do not believe, and I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America,” Giuliani said during the dinner at the 21 Club, a former Prohibition-era speakeasy in midtown Manhattan. “He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country.”

Aiding The Enemy - Is Obama Committing Treason?

This summer after Barack Obama inexplicably (and illegally) freed five of the Taliban’s most deadly terrorists in exchange for army deserter Bowe Bergdahl, I asked a burning question – a question that remains unanswered: “What will it take for our spineless U.S. Congress to impeach this tyrant?

This is way beyond partisan politics. This is about justice. This is about the safety of the American people. Barack Hussein Obama is America’s biggest threat to national security. He is ‘an enemy within.”

By striking this Faustian bargain with the devil, not only did Obama unilaterally trash the U.S. government’s long-standing policy never to negotiate with terrorists, he brazenly violated a 2013 national defense bill that unambiguously requires he give Congress 30-days notice before releasing any Guantanamo Bay prisoners, much less five of its most deadly.

Eric Holder - What a loser! Always after our guns!



by AWR HAWKINS
On Sunday, MSNBC aired Melissa Harris-Perry’s interview of Attorney General Eric Holder and he said the “single failure” of his tenure as AG was the failure to secure gun control.

In the interview, Harris-Perry looked at Holder and said, “You once said the worst day in office was the day that you had to walk through the bloodied aftermath” following the heinous attack on Sandy Hook Elementary. She said, “Children were slaughtered in their classrooms and we have not made any meaningful progress on changing the access to guns in this country. Are we a nation of cowards when it comes to guns?”

Holder responded:

Well, I’ll say this, [walking through the school] was the worst day I had as Attorney General. It is, I think the single failure that I point to in my time as Attorney General, that I was not able to… convince Congress to really follow the will of the American people — which was to enact meaningful, reasonable, gun safety measures. The gun lobby simply won.
