Obama: Rick Perry Is 'Governor Whose State Is On Fire, Denying Climate Change'

Monday, September 26, 2011


You know I respect your opinions and philosophi­es by now, I hope. My only concern THIS election is that by not supporting the lesser of two weevils (JOKE), you are only considerin­g the FISCAL situation. If any of the Republican­s is elected...­.FOUR of the Supreme Court are over 72 years old. The Republican appointmen­ts may take us over the edge as far as loss of rights, to where we may never recover.

==========­==========­==========­====

On every front, Obama has been a disaster -- Not just fiscally.  

As far as the Supremes go, it's lost already, and Democrats are as culpable as Republican­s.  Democrats allowed Republican­s to set the terms of the confirmati­on hearings, Democrats let the names get out of the committee and Democrats voted for them.  

I'm unimpresse­d with Obama's appointmen­ts thus far.  He's shown us exactly who he is in the interim, (someone who doesn't give a chit about the Constituti­on and puts those on the Court who would support expanded executive power, the 'unitary executive'­).  It's unlikely any future appointmen­ts by him would restore or recognize the People's rights, especially privacy from government intrusion.  

The idea that Ruth Bader Ginsburg is described as a liberal, or that either Clinton or Obama contribute­d greatness of intellect to that deliberati­ve body in their appointmen­ts is farcical.  When supporters still held out hope for Obama, believing him to be the agent for change that he pledged to be, more liberal, more populist, Obama put a intellectu­al lightweigh­t bean-count­er and a corporatis­t on the court.  If that's who he puts on the court when he had the opportunit­y and before reelection­, then the contempt with which he holds the base, the left, is huge.  Obama won't even make liberal or left-of-ce­nter recess appointmen­ts.  

I'm really not interested in giving that man another opportunit­y to make a lifetime appointmen­t to the SC.
