Sigh. The storage systems to utilize these systems sucking up the petabytes of information did not physically even exist before Obama. XKeyscore and Prism et al existed in some form or other shortly before Obama came to office, but did not take on their truly sinister forms until this administration. And frankly, the Patriot Act was not the greatest abuse it is the FISA act. Obamas EXPANSION of these programs what was what prompted Snowden to do something to begin with. http://www.dailydot.com/layer8/nsa-obama-expansion-spying/ And he is STILL doing it http://www.commondreams.org/news/20...bama-administration-plans-quiet-nsa-expansion If you do not understand this... then you are deluded. And my link works fine. Fix your connection. https://www.myheritage.org/news/una...-administrations-unconstitutional-power-grab/
yeah, when and why did he use that again? For your education: https://thinkprogress.org/everythin...lan-to-fix-the-senate-4740d4ebcfdb#.x0wfvsvqb - - - Updated - - - Given his business history, Trump ONLY punishes "poor management" when it's NOT his own.
And since neo-nazi's like you consider the GOP useful idiots, they are NOT "your party"....as anyone over 21 with a modicum of historical and current events awareness can read in your posts. You can't disprove what I posted, so you just blow smoke. And FYI, I didn't vote for either candidate, as I don't trust them and don't like their records.
No, you can thank 20 years of reaganomics for that. And all one has to do is look up the definitions and then examine Trump's video and magazine/newspaper quotes and legal shennanigans over the the years to realize he can't be anything but a fascist.
As much as Reaganomics has been referenced on discussion boards in the last 20 years or so, folk like you either clam up or STILL try to defend it.
It has EVERYTHING to do with a man who's entire life has been catering to the upper class that he was born into suddenly declare that he's for the working man. Given his record of housing discrimination, union busting, outsourcing, stiffing contractors...his campaign was and is a joke....but people like you bought into it hook, line and sinker.
See the above responses. Another failed David Duke wanna-be patting himself on the back, oblivious to the sheer stupidity of his statements and responses. Sad, but not unexpected. - - - Updated - - - Sorry, given the responses by the serious right wingers here, it's hard to tell the jokes from their serious contentions.
The Repubs wail about Bork...but when the record is examined, Bork was NOT QUALIFIED AND AN ideologue. The Repub got their revenge with Thomas, IMHO. - - - Updated - - - investigative reporting by a man respecting by both liberal and conservative, Dem and Repub. You may not like his conclusions, but damned if you can fault his research.
No genius, YOU made the sweeping statements...the burden of proof is on YOU. Essentially you're saying, "if you fit any one aspect of this broad and generalized spectrum I use to justify my political and social views, then that automatically proves my point". So by your own "standards", if you are a white man or woman who is either working poor, working middle class or middle class and you live in a state where part of a major city/suburb where there is a large black/hispanic/asian population and you lost your job in the last 20 years and voted for Trump, then you're a bigot or a racist or a low information voter. I can't say that without a plethora of valid statistics, references, etc. Subsequently, neither can you. As I said, your willful ignorance is astounding.
How about this? A reaction to a lock step party OPENLY COMMITTED TO NON-GOVERNING VIA THE AUTOMATIC GAIN SAYING OF ANYTHING THE STANDING PRESIDENT PROPOSES?
Single moms, gender-obsessed, poor minorities, heathens and Marxists. That's the Democratic coalition.
Before you pick up the gauntlet for the bigoted bumpkins on this thread, learn to read carefully and comprehensively. I NEVER SAID IN ANY WAY THAT LAKOTA BOUGHT SLAVES. I made reference to the fact that some some nations bought former black slaves into the fold via marriage, thus giving them authenticity as "native people". Got that? Good! - - - Updated - - - yeah, sure you did...which is why you voted for him when he was saying the EXACT Opposite!
I seem to remember JFK used Reaganomics to boost the economy, oh wait it was Reagan that copied JFK. I don't seem to remember any Democrats bashing JFK.
FYI, fascinating stuff: https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/056e/84b88e86420a66d58e9e4bd79c810d9ef88f.pdf http://scholarship.law.wm.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1489&context=wmlr
You claimed Obama created, NOT that he expanded on some KEY points. As I said, he did NOT create Homeland Security or the Patriot Act. Your own research shows that. And no, I do NOT agree with the expansion, no more than I agreed with his extension of the Bush tax cuts, or wanting to build new Nuke plants. As for the "power grab" .....more right wing hypocrisy! Obama has made recess appointments 32 times, according to a Feb. 2013 analysis by the Congressional Research Service. Among the last four presidents, Ronald Reagan made the most recess appointments (232), followed by George W. Bush (171), Bill Clinton (139) and George H.W. Bush (7, who served only one term. These include not only ones made between sessions of Congress, but ones during recesses within a session. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/...Appointments-Have-Other-Presidents-Made-Again - - - Updated - - - Prove or stop babbling like a stubborn fool.
oh wait! Another neocon/********* myth shot to hell. FYI: http://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2011/01/26/the-myth-of-jfk-as-supply-side-tax-cutter

Whoa there, I didn't support the War in Iraq. I'm no neocon. This myth?John F. Kennedy beat Ike’s vice president (Richard Nixon) in 1960. JFK’s pitch in that legendary campaign was to “get this country moving again.” He was talking about economic growth. And that growth would get unleashed via tax policy, namely two big tax cuts, one on business and the other on personal income. These tax cuts became law, the business ones in 1962 and the personal ones early in 1964, a few months after the assassination. The economic results that anticipated and accompanied these tax cuts remain among the most whopping ever recorded. The eight-year expansion from 1961 to 1969 saw growth of 48%, a third more in an eight-year period than in the sixteen years ending in 1960. 1944-69, the “postwar prosperity” quarter century, saw growth at the nice peak-to-peak rate of 3% per year, but only because the 1960s lifted everything up. http://www.forbes.com/sites/briando...st-policy-successes-of-all-time/#23f627ae2308
Oh please...not that old leftie meme...that Reagan did it. or Bush did it. Take a deep breath and just let it go. This is 2016..try being more 'progressive'.....
I couldn't vote for Trump because I'm English living in England, I wouldn't mind emigrating to America one day, but i doubt they'd let me in because I once served 3 months in an English jail on a vigilante rap. PS-My best bet would be to fly to Mexico for a "holiday", then buy myself a sombrero and sneak across the border with other illegals before Don closes it, I don't need no steenkin visa..
What is your fear of Bannon? - - - Updated - - - You are more than welcome. We need good English people over here.
You read your propaganda. I'll talk to people in person who have received the big obamacare shaft. - - - Updated - - - You don't know me. Your bigotry is showing.
