Obama has issued many executive orders related to obamacare and Obamacare is tax. But someone in the main stream media will never say that out loud.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel handed in his resignation on Monday, the first cabinet-level casualty of the collapse of President Obama’s Democratic majority in the Senate and the struggles of his national security team to respond to an onslaught of global crises.
The officials characterized the decision as a recognition that the threat from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria will require different skills from those that Mr. Hagel, who often struggled to articulate a clear viewpoint and was widely viewed as a passive defense secretary, was brought in to employ.
He raised the ire of the White House in August as the administration was ramping up its strategy to fight the Islamic State, directly contradicting the president, who months before had likened the Sunni militant group to a junior varsity basketball squad. Mr. Hagel, facing reporters in his now-familiar role next to General Dempsey, called the Islamic State an "imminent threat to every interest we have," adding, "This is beyond anything that we’ve seen."
White House officials later said they viewed those comments as unhelpful, although the administration still appears to be struggling to define just how large is the threat posed by the Islamic State.
They're struggling to define it not least because they're not listening to the SecDef, who did define it...

The United States military is Obama's whipping boy. When the Republicans choose to do a government shutdown, the first people Obama cuts pay are the men and women in uniform. Several years ago Obama did just that and a relative who was serving in Afghanistan told everyone he and his unit were thinking about "not playing soldier anymore".
Obama is getting blowback from Hagel, etc. for his efforts to degrade our national defense.
Impeachment IS the only option now in order to protect our national security.
[ABsee] "I think the American people, you know, they're going to want -- you know, that new car smell. You know, their own -- they want to drive something off the lot that doesn't have as much mileage as me," Champ told ABC News Chief anchor George Stephanopoulos. Harvardian used car lot metaphors, so very "you know".....presidential.
Oddly enough, the American people -- or at least that part of them who donate to Democratic presidential campaigns -- still like the old car smell of Bill Clinton. I didn't go to Harvard but this strikes me as somehow meaningful.

WHY do we comment when the one speaks, ignore him, as he's done to us.
We know he lies.
That's enough.

When enough Donks think that impeachment is better for the sympathy vote they'll get in 2016 than with this man still in office in 2016, they'll be the ones talking about it.

Will need a new car by then. This one is not designed to do anything a car was. It will also be empty and probably burnt out so new car smell spray will not work for that. And you may also forget about the hood ornament.

This man cannot think in any terms or on any issue that doesn't have relevance to him, and we will spend a very long time cleaning up the messes he has already made. He has spent 10 trillion in debt for absolutely nothing, enslaved the healthcare system to an entitlement lifestyle, ruined much of the middle-level military and intelligence agencies, destroyed decades of trust built throughout the world, introduced deceit as openly commonplace in the Presidency, insinuated racial preference throughout the senior civil service, allowed nuclear proliferation in the middle east, swamped the engine of assimilation on immigration, and people are so afraid of being called racist that they refuse to consider the most deserved impeachment ever imagined in a Presidential term! What an epic display of stupidity by the American people....perhaps the last they will ever be able make as a nation as a consequence!

A Union write off. A simple business development advance. Probably only a fraction of the entire compensation package, had he been elected. Nothing to see here. The pancake breakfast at the hall is on Saturday.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
