(7:30 p.m.) President Obama will appear on 60 Minutes this Sunday, in his first full interview since announcing his plan to send 30,000 additional troops of Afghanistan. He’ll also discuss the economy, and...

Impeach the Congress

The question therefore becomes: Where are Obama and the United States? We've seen three months of delay and obfuscation from Obama. That is partly to keep his Left flank happy. Militarily there was no good reason for the delay, and it might well have increased the dangers to American personnel. But Obama is not well-informed, to say the least, on military and international affairs. Those three months might be his learning curve. BHO is...

SocialGate is just unraveling.  It is the hubris of ego and power over history and institution.  Fire the professionals and then stumble around dazed with political hacks in charge.  This is not a good place to show your managerial lacking.

As usual we get 1984-speak again.  He complains that people are now very concerned about the deficit like they were not during the Bush-era.  He simultaneously implicitly pats himself on the back for being one of those who wanted to be fiscally responsible when a Republican held the White House. And somehow that is suppose to be consistent with his historically record-setting spending that makes the Administration that he criticizes...

One president spent trillions in an effort that resulted in the death of tens of thousands. The other wants to spend billions to ensure wellness for all of his countrymen.. Dose it make sense that there are many who still prefer the first? Them all crazy!

I would hardly call 276.000 per job with an avergae salary of 58,000 per job .. cheap ... these dopes are shameless ...

Too true!  Good to see the Obama administration hitting back.  They've been too restrained and polite so far; let the gloves come off! Cheney was instrumental in diverting attention away from Afghanistan and toward Iraq, under utterly false pretenses, no less. Thanks for the mess, Dick!

Cheney and his daughter should shut-up on Afghanistan. Cheney is the direct reason that we are in such a mess in Afghanistan in the first place. Cheney is an idiot. He is not a particularly bright guy and a disgrace to this country. He should go and spend his oil and Haliburton millions.

Apparently the disclosure of the fraud used as the basis of his conclusion didn't faze him. I cannot believe how this whole group completely ignores reality. I guess since they feel that they have the power, screw the people...full steam ahead. I'm not sure we can survive one more year, much less three until POTUS is replaced. What's it going to take?
