Obama authorized over 10 times more drone strikes than George W Bush, and automatically painted all males of military age in these regions as combatants, making them fair game for remote controlled killing.


Obama being a war hawk was the most surprising part of his presidency.

And isn't that reclassification of "enemy combatant" a big part of how "surgical" his supporters said his authorized strikes were getting? It's not [necessarily or just] that they acted on better intel to reduce civilian casualties, they just [or also] stopped classifying certain people as "civilian" irrespective of intelligence.

American bombing of Muslim countries is turning out to be a bi-partisan effort.

Yup. I'm surprised Republicans hated Obama so much. He killed more Muslims than every other President combined. They should be thanking him.

Thanks, Obama.
An horrible serial killer is our Barry. Like Many other SerKil guys he's also a narcissist.
Some are saying "sociopathic narcissist"when referring to Him. Others demur, preferring "narcissistic sociopath", which is probably the correct way to characterize The One.
Barry got more kills than even Gosnell.
But Trump is a Nazi.

Dead cops don't add-officially-to Soetero's score but we all know they could.
6 more BlueBloods shot last night. One KIA.
Thanks, B.Hussein. May all your children be un masculine.

Left/Right Divide is suspended when it comes to our "wars". "War on Terror" has played out similarly to the ill fated "War on Communism" of years past.

You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling.

Yes.

But I've never confused him with a great President. In my book he was akin to a good "game manager"

No the difference was if Bush warned or threatened you he followed through with it. He did not make red lines and keep moving them or fucking with countries half-assed. Honestly do you think anything close to Benghazi would have happened under him? The 173rd would have been dropped pell mell on the compound within the first 2-3 hours or some more spec ops guys would have been there.

I liked him. i compare him to Reagan.

Reagan was the right man for the right time. Everyone wanted to forget about the 70s. It was a bad decade for this country for all the reasons we all know. Whatever you may say about his politics, the best thing Reagan did was bring confidence and pride back into this country which was missing for at least 17 years since. As others who lived during Reagan's Presidency, he was a middle of the road president. Not a right wing wacko the extreme left and extreme right would like you to believe.

Obama was the same way. The right man for the right time. After Bush W fucked up economically and militarily, whatever you may say about Obama's politics, he was the guy the country needed that portrayed a calm confidence and competency compared to the previous fuck ups.
