once again, you leave off integral information...
Obama: I'll veto any legislation that would void Defense cuts
that is not the whole story, it's the same you did with the OWS rape stuff. you presented headlines that cried rape, but the articles actually told of a very different account where accusers were not believed, nor were there any evidence of the headline..that is beneath someone of your stature. you and I have done this long enough, at a level where there should be no need of a 'fact-check'.. to bad you lost that by playing on another board that toned-down your ability rather than toning it up..
the whole story is..
President Obama on Monday evening threatened to veto any legislation that would void the $600 billion in national defense cuts that would kick in if lawmakers fail to cut a debt-reduction deal.
why? that is my main question.. why do this? Don't both 'stories' end with a a defense cut? Yes. But one, yours, assumes Obama is being a dick and refusing to work with congress, while they are working so hard to come to some kind of 'reduction agreement' and he's just going to veto any attempt they make... the other, assumes Obama is forcing Congress to get the fuck back to the table a work out a reduction instead of trying to get around their own rules.It is Obama telling them this is going to be a hard reduction plan to make, one that isn't going to pretty for anyone up for reelection, but that he's not going to allow them to get out of this by taking away that unpleasantness, he' going to force them to stay at the table and fucking compromise like adults.. elections be damned for once, work for the country and not your polls..
if you would indulge me... stop right there and let me know if I've presented the meanings of two quotes fairly...
since I think I have, I'll continue...you are playing 'foxnews'.. why?
I ask again..
why do you allow Congress to get away from making actual debt-reduction progress by putting an inaccurate spin on the President's position. Either you want debt-reduction, even when it's this president doing it.. or you don't because you never really have, it is this president and you don't want him to have any electability by saying he's reduced our debt. I don't want to label you with the latter, but when you create erroneous spin like you have, when you allow your blogs and right-wing-radio to do this, it put pressure on any President to cave in and allow Congress to bypass their own rules and do what the fuck they always do, which is nothing..I'm left putting that label on you..
For a minute there, I almost thought you wanted to discuss the issue reasonably, but then the mask fell again, and it was Shutter Island all over again.
I don't know if you want me to think that you are too stupid to not understand what I'm saying or if you are so crazy the whole time that you can't really tell the difference between what I write and what you
think I write.
the fact that you continue to even exclude the whole story in your quotes leads one to believe that you have no care at all for this debt-reduction issue, you only care to disparage the only guy who can force the two sides to actually come up with a plan, for your own political gain..
well, ok.. you win. Obama loses and Congress can just keep on fucking this country by making no decisions, hell it's worked so far, why tamper with the status quo.... good job!
hell, let me ask you this..
you say,
Obama: I'll veto any legislation that would void Defense cuts
so I will play dumb and ask... why is he doing that Mike? what reason does he have for veto'ing Congress' attempts?
See... it's beyond me that you insist that I was disparaging Obama. Honestly, I can't understand where you are getting that from, which goes to prove my crazy the whole time theory.
I had to pull up our old thread about the Hasan terrorist attack a few weeks ago for resources for another argument on another site. Going back and reading it, I could see the roots of your madness. You were constantly making up things that I hadn't actually written, but you just assumed I thought. You've been losing it for a while.
