He Whines A Lot When He Gets Outplayed At His Own Game

For someone who has thrown the Constitution to the wind and believes he has the power to do as he wants, Barack Obama sure whines a lot when his game is played by others as well as he perceives he himself does...

"A group of 47 Republicans senators Monday sent an open letter to Iranian leaders, warning them that any deal struck with President Obama won’t last once he leaves office. The U.S. and its international partners continue to seek a deal to halt Iran’s nuclear weapons program but many members of Congress are skeptical of the negotiations and believe Tehran would not live up to the terms of any final agreement." - WT

In Case “Constitutional Expert” Obama Forgot, He Can’t Negotiate Iran Treaty Alone
(See Article 2, Section 2, Clause 2)

Greta Van Susteren noted Friday that both she and Barack Obama attended and taught at law schools and both studied the same United States Constitution. She offers him a refresher in recognition of his failure of act in accordance with its mandates.

“Article 2, section 2, clause 2 includes the treaty clause, which empowers the President to propose and negotiate agreements between the United States and other nations, which become treaties afteray, yes after, the advice and consent of a super-majority of the U.S. Senate.”

 “That means the ‘president’ has no power to make a deal solely with Iran, solely alone, he can’t do that. Presidents are not kings, they’re not dictators, and under our Constitution the President of the United States has broad powers but by no means absolute powers.”

“So why does the White House not want Congress to vote on a deal with Iran?  Here’s press secretary Josh Earnest had to say: 

“Ultimately we can’t put in place and additional hurdle for that agreement to overcome here at the eleventh hour.” 

“Hurdle? That clause is not a hurdle. Josh Earnest may think it trivial, I don’t.  It’s the Constitution, to be respected and adhered to. Any deal with Iran, good, bad or indifferent impacts the world and impacts generations.  So none of that slippery stuff about the ‘president’ going alone and any deal between the United States and Iran must go to the United States Senate for advice and consent. That is what the Constitution says, and if the ‘president’ doesn’t believe me he should look it up; article 2, section 2, clause 2.”

Bringing Back the Clintons:

"If you treat IRS rules the way the IRS treats IRS rules, you go to prison; if you treat federal law the way the secretary of state does, you go to prison. If you treat immigration controls the way our immigration authorities do, you go to prison. If you're as careless in your handling of firearms as the ATF is, you go to prison. You cook your business's books the way the federal government cooks its books, you go to prison.

"Hillary Clinton is not going to prison. She's going to release whatever emails she feels like releasing and dare any of you peons or your elected representatives to try to make her do otherwise. You'll take what she offers, and you''ll like it. ...

 "A self-respecting people would have sent this clan of scrofulous grifters and po-faced con artists into whatever passes for exile (comfortable exile, of course) in the 21st century. Instead, we are giving them a serious shot at a return to the White House.

Obama Once Claimed 1965 Selma March Led to His Birth

Just One Problem...He was born in 1961

The man loves to inject himself into historical events, and Saturdays attempt was not the first time he has tried to tie himself personally to a civil rights milestone.

That time Obama lied & said 1965 Selma march inspired his parents to conceive him...even though he was born in 1961. http://t.co/RTgqRfwN9Z

"Many in the mainstream media consider President Barack Obama’s speech Saturday in remembrance of the 50th Anniversary of the Bloody Sunday march to be among his best while in office.

That is in stark contrast, however, to the last time the Chicago Democrat spoke before the crowd in Selma, Alabama – when he either couldn’t remember the year he was born or when the march in Selma actually happened.

According to Twitchy, when the president spoke before an audience in Selma back in 2007, Obama credited the civil rights march as the inspiration for his conception. The only problem with that, as conservative pundit Michelle Malkin points out, is that the president was already three years old when the march occurred in 1965."

From Obama’s 2007 speech: 

“This young man named Barack Obama got one of those tickets [to study in the U.S.], and he met this woman who’s great-great-great-great grandfather had owned saves,” he said.

“But she had a different idea. There’s some good craziness going on, because they looked at each other and they decided that we know that in the world that it has been it might not be possible for us to get together and have a child. But something’s stirring across the country because of what happened in Selma, Alabama because some folks are willing to march across a bridge. So they got together… Barack Obama, Jr. was born.

“So don’t tell me I don’t have a claim on Selma, Alabama. Don’t tell me I’m not coming home when I come to Selma, Alabama. I’m here because somebody marched for our freedom. I’m here because somebody marched for me. I stand on the shoulders of giants.".......

The Rules According to Clinton:

"Hillary Clinton hasn't even begun her expected presidential candidacy, but already Americans are being reminded of the political entertainment they can expect. To wit, the normal rules of government ethics and transparency apply to everyone except Bill and Hillary. ...

 The real story here is that none of this is a surprise. This is how the Clintons roll. They're a political version of the old Peanuts cartoon character who was always surrounded by a cloud of dirt. Ethical shortcuts and controversies are standard operating procedure. A brief 1990s roll call: The Riadys, Johnny Chung, Travelgate, the vanishing Rose billing records, a killing in cattle futures, the Marc Rich pardon.

 The Clintons and Democrats want Americans to forget all of that. But as the email and foundation discoveries show, the Clintons haven't changed. They still think they can do what they please and get away with it." — The Editors, The Wall Street Journal

Clinton Private Server Listed Under Mysterious,

Untraceable Name

CBS

The computer server that transmitted and received Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails — on a private account she used exclusively for official business when she was secretary of state — traced back to an Internet service registered to her family’s home in Chappaqua, New York, according to Internet records reviewed by The Associated Press.

The highly unusual practice of a Cabinet-level official physically running her own email would have given Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential candidate, impressive control over limiting access to her message archives. 

It remains unclear exactly who set up and maintained the private email server for Clinton, but the AP traced it back to Eric Hoteham – a mysterious identity that “does not appear in public records databases, campaign contribution records or Internet background searches.”  However, Hoteham’s name is listed as a customer at the Clinton’s $1.7 million estate on Old House Lane in Chappaqua. The records have been registered for the Internet address for her email server since August 2010 and Hoteham is also listed as someone associated with the website “presidentclinton.com” and a defunct address for “wjcoffice.com.”

Operating her own server would have afforded Clinton additional legal opportunities to block government or private subpoenas in criminal, administrative or civil cases because her lawyers could object in court before being forced to turn over any emails.

Negotiations with Iran

"Barack Obama wants us all to simmer down about Iran. He wants Senator Bob Menendez, a fellow Democrat, and the donors he represents to butt out of the sanctions debate. He wants Republicans to quit crying wolf about Iran's nuclear weapons program. He wants the media to stop hyping terror threats. He wants the American people in the dark about the secret correspondence he's had for years with Iran's supreme leader. He wants John Boehner to be mindful of protocol. And most of all, he wants Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop questioning his accommodationist approach to Tehran.

"With the breezy confidence that is his trademark, the president has repeatedly delivered a reassuring message on Iran to the country and the world: Trust me.

"With respect, Mr. President: No." — Stephen F. Hayes, The Weekly Standard
