Funny how this stuff is largely ignored now. Bush was a war criminal. Barry O is an untouchable God of fighting terrorists.

A serial/mass murderer is a Peace Prize winner and they support him.
How you have any respect for a mass murderer as a POTUS?
Let's hope he answers for his war crimes.

Obama is a puppet, just as Bush was. The corporate fascist program rolls on no matter which party wins or steals the elections. Anybody who stops being divided-and-conquered by this transparent good cop/bad cop two party charade, will see that the difference is only in the details. The main program continues. Didn't Obama extend the Patriot Act? Didn't he expand the NSA? All these dark programs that were started after 9/11, he continued and expanded on. Completely against his election promises, one might add. The terrorist narrative is used to push every fascist idea through, and few people even notice that the perceived terrorists are no longer Al Qaeda, but US citizens. Both sides of the aisles are bought and paid for by the same corporations, banksters and their Wall Street cronies. And they get their way. Not the People. And things will only get worse, until the People see it, and, instead of being divided-and-conquered, stand united.

And this charade has been in the making for a long time. If you don't believe it, consider these words by Abraham Lincoln:

“I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.”
—U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, Nov. 21, 1864

Most civilizations are destroyed from within, not by same invading power.

Too late Dark Horse....We have already crossed the line, imo....There will be "NO" rally of any sort...It is too late for that...Americans have been rendered helpless, as those who were voted to protect and serve us, no longer have the Courage, or Principles to have any effect of stopping the "evil-juggernaut" that has become Amerika, as they now live in fear of the very thing that they should have, and didn't, stand up to.....Everything will change very soon, I am sad to believe...George Orwell's 1984 will seem like a tame fairy tale compared what is about to happen next in Amerika...

Same applies to you not knowing how many times the righhty' "hall monitors" tried to boot or marginalize the vocal minority of libs from off topic. If there was any hall monitoring being done here it was pretty clear their classic "love it or leave it" crap was the ultimate in hall monitoring. This occurred frequently during the right's wet dream of the neocons take over of the ME. Sides were drawn up a long time ago.

On the bright side...

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A federal appeals court ordered the U.S. Department of Justice to turn over key portions of a memorandum justifying the government's targeted killing of people linked to terrorism, including Americans.

In a case pitting executive power against the public's right to know what its government does, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower court ruling preserving the secrecy of the legal rationale for the killings, such as the death of U.S. citizen Anwar al-Awlaki in a 2011 drone strike in Yemen.

Ruling for the New York Times, a unanimous three-judge panel said the government waived its right to secrecy by making repeated public statements justifying targeted killings.

A military response is demanded now.
I suggest a nuke in the center of the capital.
There will no great loss - just savages.

Obviously, a 9/11 event - does our current CNC have the BALLS our last one did. Oh, wait, he apologized.....guess he supports the actions.
We have no business being there at all. The friggin muslims asked for help - let them pay for it and take of it. Muslims killing muslims. Not our problem
Even with all the troops we still have in Iraq, their government is openly pro-Iranian. And no one has heard any good things about Israel from them either.I said nuke the basterds before day one. We have their co-ordinates - there is no reason to have troops there.
They will never be a civilized nation, why bother with them?
Just nuke them every couple of years and be done with them.So hcap, you are in favor of his murdering innocent people?

As redshift1 pointed out.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/15/iraq-death-toll_n_4102855.html

Nearly half a million people have died from war-related causes in Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003, according to an academic study published in the United States on Tuesday.

That toll is far higher than the nearly 115,000 violent civilian deaths reported by the British-based group Iraq Body Count, which bases its tally on media reports, hospital and morgue records, and official and non-governmental accounts.

The latest estimate by university researchers in the United States, Canada and Baghdad in cooperation with the Iraqi Ministry of Health covers not only violent deaths but other avoidable deaths linked to the invasion, insurgencies and subsequent social breakdown.

The lines will become blurry at some point, the move 1984 was a joke right? Until technology surpasses the movie's depictions. Exponential technology development without government using it against it own citizens is a flower story, a dream. Today we move our military into the country of Poland, the United States should have Europe do this not us. Use of drones, like we elect a United States President to decide who we are going to kill today. I think we are misusing our military personnel and the technology, generals in the field should decide who to attack and kill. We should rebuild our military to be the the most advanced equipped ready fighting force outside Europe, kick the united nations out of New York and send them to Europe to police their own shit.
