    Will Obama do anything in response to this?
    Or, just play some more golf?

    Josh is working on a sternly worded response right now.

    You have to admit the meltdown has been pretty great
    I dont think we've seen anything like it
    It's worse now than under W even.
    Maybe their reaction to Reagan was close, but we didnt have social media back then
    And wait until Trump sheds government hindrance of business allowing GDP to rebound to 4% (or higher). Mega-meltdown time



    The current state of the Democrat Party...

    His parting gift to me is that extra $1000 a month I have to pay now for Obamacare. I'm hoping Trump will replace that gift with his own gift of taking that thick book that Nancy Pelosi said "you have to pass it to know what's in it", and going out on the lawn of the White House and striking a match to it. The dumbest legislation ever passed in American history. There's no close second.

    The president appoints four of the commission members, and he House and Senate each appoint two. The next several appointments (including 2 in 2017) will be made by a Republican president, Republican Senate, and Republican House. I'm guessing they won't choose candidates that the BLM folks like. More likely, they will pick staunch conservatives who would never question a police officer's judgment. Thus, it is quite appropriate for Obama's final appointments to be liberals.

    Plus, criticizing an attorney for advocating a position in court is absurd. Adegile is a highly qualified attorney with abundant experience and knowledge in the civil-rights field. I don't know enough (or anything, for that matter) about his politics to say whether he'd be my pick for the post, but the fact that he advocated for a cop-killer in a high-profile court case is not a factor to me. Cops, of all people, should know this.

    Obama has been shopping Debo Adegbile around for a couple of years. He was rejected by the Senate for a high post in the Justice Dept. Later BO wanted to stick him in the U.S. Court of Appeals for Washington D.C., but didn't think he'd be approved.

    From Wikipedia: "Born Adebowale Patrick Akande Adegbile in New York City, Adegbile is the son of a Nigerian father and an Irish immigrant mother.[3] He was raised by his single mother."

    Sound familiar? Multi-racial, father was likely muslim, raised by single white mother, eastern liberal education, sees racial discrimination every where he looks, he's a clone of BO himself. He even resembles a young BO.

    LOL -- "It's an unprecedented executive order that can never be undone. Ignore what the law and history say."

    --------------- from your friends at the NYT
    "President Obama announced on Tuesday what he called a permanent ban on offshore oil and gas drilling along wide areas of the Arctic and the Atlantic Seaboard as he tried to nail down an environmental legacy that cannot quickly be reversed by Donald J. Trump.

    Mr. Obama invoked an obscure provision of a 1953 law, the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, which he said gives him the authority to act unilaterally. While some presidents have used that law to temporarily protect smaller portions of federal waters, Mr. Obama’s declaration of a permanent drilling ban from Virginia to Maine on the Atlantic and along much of Alaska’s coast is breaking new ground. The declaration’s fate will almost certainly be decided by the federal courts.

    “It’s never been done before,” said Patrick Parenteau, a professor of environmental law at the University of Vermont. “There is no case law on this. It’s uncharted waters.”......."

    What team does this President play for? Is he against our country? What logical reason why he would do this? I'm so sick of this guy. Jan 20th, 2017 can't get here soon enough.

    Well, we have this statement from 2008 that may shed some light on the answer ....

    Yes that was a big clue. It was just words.......... but then her husband started with his actions. I seriously can't think of anything he's done well for this country. I swear if he would have just went to the golf course every single day for the last 8 years our economy would have recovered faster and over 3% GDP (and not spend $10 trillion dollars in the process.)

    Melania will be a nice change -- a classy FLOTUS absent that bitter, nasty side

    Obama is pro -Muslim, anti-Israel. He has been from the start.

    One last slap at the Jews, but it's largely symbolic. The U. N is a toothless paper tiger. We all know how well their resolutions about Assad 's use of chemical weapons against civilians worked.

    This UN Resolution could be more than toothless if nations decided to see it enforced
    Plus it will embolden the Palis.

    That's a big IF Horn6721. I don't think anybody wants to get sucked into a M.E. Quagmire.

    But you're right about emboldening the Arabs.

    Do we need anymore proof? That this final spit in the face of not only Israel, but to America who has had Israel as our biggest and closest friend in that region. Obama does not have our best interest in mind. He never has. I have zero respect for this man.
