So it is Eisenhower's fault?

What's the antecedent of "it" in your sentence? And who said anything about fault?

I brought up Eisenhower for two reasons:

(a) His perspective is a good reminder that quantity doesn't always mean quality in terms of one's work.

(b) His example suggests that regular breaks for exercise/recreation do not necessarily impede a leader's performance. Indeed, they may enhance it.

Obama isn't taking breaks, he is looking for Nicole's real killer.




Lucylastic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 4:46:34 PM)

And yet he is actually breaking into his vacation time to come back to the whitehouse for a week of meetings on monday.
OHHH EMMMM GEEEEE

I'm sorry, but your reference eludes me, no doubt because I've been too distracted this summer to follow the news much. Are you making a connection between the President and O.J. Simpson?

I read it as a sardonic reference to Obama's tendency of focusing on nugatory tasks instead of salient ones. The only thing Obama has murdered is the Constitution.




Lucylastic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 5:07:59 PM)

sardonic? likening him to OJ SImpson...?lol yeah thats some bullshit right there.
How has he murdered the constitution?
please, exact points please....

Saying he's looking for the real killer doesn't equate him to O.J. as a murderer; the connection is between the pursuit of that which does not exist in reality.

As far as references go, I don't have the time to compile a 1,000 page document. But if you're interested, you might want to start with Andrew McCarthy's book on the subject. http://www.amazon.com/Faithless-Execution-Building-Political-Impeachment/dp/1594037760/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1399894182&sr=1-1&keywords=faithless+execution




Lucylastic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 5:19:18 PM)

a book doesnt do it, LOL especially by Andrew McCarthy.
bloody hell

Yeah, the guy who prosecuted the World Trade Center bombers. What a hack. He even his the gumption to call out Republicans all the time, too. So he's also independent and not an appeaser. Terrible, terrible, that someone wouldn't fall in line with everyone else.




Lucylastic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 5:46:49 PM)

LMAO
Lawyer, neocon, not independent, and now relying on his books to stir shit....so that makes him an authority on the president and these....high crimes... yeah
only in your narrow minded view

McCarthy is not a neocon. Neocons advocate intervention even when there is not a direct national interest. There are plenty of neocons, yes, but you misread him entirely if you think he shares their worldview. Successful prosecutor, far more a Constitutional scholar than Lord Obama, an incisive, rational, compelling writer ... yes, I'd consider him an authority and his prosecutorial case is in fact compelling.




Lucylastic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 5:56:16 PM)

Then .... you can point out exactly the crimes and misdemeanors...one book by a neocon doesnt cut it ..thats just the way it is....
that you will find arguments and facts in answer to your "proof" should be expected btw.
He is no more compelling than Rand....




TheHeretic -> RE: Presidential Golfing Double Standard (8/8/2014 7:22:55 PM)

Golf is the least of the double standards this President gets the benefit of, Sanity.

Here is a much more recent story on his addiction to the game, and his need to escape from the realities of his failure to do the job he wanted so badly.

Referring to WTC 93, there was no feather in anybody's cap for that monumental incompetence and bombing the FBI could have easily prevented. If I was FBI or DOJ, I wouldn't want any of that on my resume. 6 people died that clearly should not have.

McCarthy BTW is a republican and he's been writing repub hack jobs ever since he left the DOJ in 2003. Here

It's very simple. Lacking Nero's fiddle, he has his golf clubs. Even the Secret Service reports he is insufferable, entitled, narcissistic, detached, and the like. He has no sense of propriety or manners.

Do you have any validation for this ignorant unsubstantiated opinion? A selfie of the shit house wall you copied it off of does not count.



He golfs in the middle of crises where other Presidents would have been crucified by the media for doing the same.


The story is that grant whittled while the battle of shiloh raged...grant was a republicrat wasn't he?

That's what happens when 95% of the media are lapdog leftists, incurious, incapable of critical thinking.


Should you ever pull your head out of your ass and google up who the phoque owns what, you would not make such dumb ass statements.

You get sheep. No question Obama wins the sheep vote.


For those who have not taken sixth grade civics...the u.s. appoints presidents they are not elected...not even by sheep






The one thing we can all count on you for, thompsonx, is elegant reply that would do the Queen proud. If the Queen had experiences akin to those in Requiem for a Dream.

Re: Appointed Presidents. So no one actually voted for Obama? Well, that would be a relief! You really don't think I know the difference between the popular vote and the electoral one? After all, when I went to school, they actually taught civics.

You of the perfect absolute evidence and here you are citing a mere "story" of old Ulysses. Hmmm.

Ownership has nothing to do with reporters in the media. 95% of them are Democrats, most of them leftists. As multiple surveys have shown. Which means your head must be up my ass. No wonder I've had difficulty sleeping lately.

Would you care to provide proof of such claims with creditable links??

Or is this just your usual BS that you trot out??

I could point out its somewhat racist but all the usual subject will scream blue murder.

Does anyone want to take bets on who is the first......[8|]

The stupidity put forth that owners dont control output is somewhat laughable.

Just ask Rupert.

He made that bullshit Secret Service claim and got called on it ad never even tried to back it up.

Explain the correlation please.......could it possibly be that both O.J. and President Obama are black men ?
feel free to offer another explanation for the link
