On Libya and Budget, Obama Votes ‘Present’

Michael Barone "Voting “present” may be a responsible move for a legislator genuinely undecided about which way to go. But an executive voting “present” is choosing a course with consequences, whether he likes it or not."

From The Jordan Times: Obama should move faster  "Has the American president been probably twiddling his thumbs while the Arab world has been gloriously experiencing an unprecedented revolution against these autocrats, often the favourite lackeys of key Western leaders, because of the oil wealth in the region, estimated as 60 per cent of the world’s output."

Obama’s Social Security Hoax "The relative ease of the fix is what makes the Obama administration’s Social Security strategy so shocking. The new line from the White House is: no need to fix it because there is no problem. As Office of Management and Budget (OMB) director Jack Lew wrote in USA Today just a few weeks ago, the trust fund is solvent until 2037. Therefore, Social Security is now off the table in debt-reduction talks.
"This claim is a breathtaking fraud."  Emphasis added.

The Fruits of ‘Concern’  "Qaddafi and his disgusting sons will have got the better of the United States while their victims will be cursing it. Can Obama really be happy to have helped bring about such an outcome? Is that to be his presidential legacy?"
