I didn’t say anything about conservative I am talking about a bunch of r****t degenerates that put a fat d********g pathological lying POS in the White House that is all about obtaining personal wealth.

The Trump r****t degenerates Constantly making ignorant statements that Obama destroyed our military okay let’s see if your sharper than a marble in what way did Obama destroy our military. You must have an answer you made the comment so let’s hear what you have to back up a stupid comment like that.

It’s a disgrace that a bunch of degenerates just parrot everything that narcissistic AH in the White House says so back up that ignorant comment or shut up.

Want war? Defend Mattis.

Sometimes I'd like to tell you to take off your shoes and quietly tiptoe into hell. Then I realize you're already two thirds of the way there at least in your mind.

OK you asked for it......

Obama mothballed several very serviceable aircraft carriers. Our military were constantly required to cannibalize parts from one aircraft to repair another aircraft reducing the number of serviceable aircraft. Remember Obama's sequestration? He reduced military strength to pre WWII numbers. Do you recall when visiting the Middle East Obama insisted Marines were not allowed to bring weapons into the venue where he was giving a pep talk? 60% of the USMEC held him in disdain. Obama, at one of these pep rallies promised the troops he would get them the equipment they needed. He never did! Obama took away combat pay from our troops unless they were actually engaging enemies.?

In his memoir, former Defense Secretary Robert Gates blasted Obama as a leader "who doesn’t believe in his own strategy" and said his plans in Iraq and Afghanistan were "all about getting out." He also accused Obama of distrusting senior military leaders, and treating them as potential adversaries.

Retired Marine Corps Gen. James Mattis, head of U.S. Central Command under Obama and Trump’s nominee to serve as defense secretary, last fall called Obama’s anti-ISIS strategy "unguided by a sustained policy or sound strategy, replete with half-measures."

While overseeing U.S. operations in Afghanistan in 2010, Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal was effectively fired by Obama after reports of their fights over military strategy were made public. In 2014, Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, was dismissed as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency over his criticism of Obama’s soft approach to Islamic terrorism.

The biggest impact of Obama’s tenure may be felt by those serving in the ranks, and how dramatically that population has changed in recent years. Since 2009, White House-led changes have allowed gay troops to serve openly for the first time, women to serve in combat posts, same-sex couples to receive military benefits, and t*********r service members to announce their presence in the ranks.

That's enough for now. The wife is bringing me a bowl of white beans, ham hock and corn bread. Makes my tongue want to slap my brains out.....so good!

Who declares wars? (Hint: Not Mattis)

And what law was pushed by Cheney (the real president) to allow the president to do wh**ever they want to do?

Not since 1941.

Way to not answer the question, do YOU need a history lesson?

Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the United States Constitution, sometimes referred to as the War Powers Clause, vests in the Congress the power to declare war, in the following wording:

[The Congress shall have Power...] To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;
A number of wars have been declared under the United States Constitution, although there is some controversy as to the exact number, as the Constitution does not specify the form of such a declaration.

Marque and Reprisal. A commission by which the head of a government authorizes a private ship to capture enemy vessels. The authority to do such capturing is granted to private vessels in letters of marque and reprisal

OK, what war has the US declared since 1941? Who needs a history lesson?

In 1973, an irate Congress passed the War Powers Act in response to President Lyndon Johnson and President Richard Nixon’s prosecution of the war in Vietnam without a congressional declaration. Under the War Powers Act, the president has 90 days after introducing troops into hostilities to obtain congressional approval of that action. It looks good on paper, but presidents have generally ignored the War Powers Act, citing Article II, Section 2 as their authority to send soldiers into combat.

Today, Congress met to discuss legislation to authorize the use of force under the War Powers Act. While lawmakers are still working out the language, the proposed measure will be a modified use-of-force resolution, modeled on the resolution used in 1991 to authorize action by President George Bush against Iraq prior to the Gulf War. That resolution authorized the president to “use armed forces pursuant to the UN Security Council’s resolutions passed in response to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.” The resolution (HR-77) went out of its way not to be a declaration of war. In fact, other than saying this constitutes authorization under the War Powers Act, it never used the word war at all. It did cite a U.N. resolution seeking to “restore international peace and security in that area,” so it was only a declaration of war if you can assume that the opposite of peace is sort of war.

Shoot To K**l?
Executive Order 12,333 prohibits assassination. This does not have the force of law but is merely a p**********l pronouncement that can be repealed, modified, or suspended at any time by the president himself. As of last night, Congress was openly discussing ending the moratorium on assassinations.

International Law
The U.N. charter was ratified by the Senate, and as such the president is bound by its terms. Nevertheless, the attacks on New York and Virginia are clearly war crimes under the U.N. definition. Moreover, Article 51 of the U.N. charter provides for the “inherent right … of self-defense if an armed attack occurs.” NATO also took steps toward approving military action yesterday, by invoking Article 5 of the NATO charter, authorizing the use of force if it’s determined that this was attack from abroad against the United States.

The purpose of the USA Patriot Act is to deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world. Section 314 helps law enforcement identify, disrupt, and prevent terrorist acts and money laundering activities by encouraging further cooperation among law enforcement, regulators, and financial institutions to share information.



The official title of the USA PATRIOT Act is "Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT) Act of 2001." To view this law in its entirety, click on the USA PATRIOT Act link below.
USA PATRIOT Act
The purpose of the USA PATRIOT Act is to deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world, to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, and other purposes, some of which include:

-To strengthen U.S. measures to prevent, detect and prosecute international money laundering and financing of terrorism;
-To subject to special scrutiny foreign jurisdictions, foreign financial institutions, and classes of international t***sactions or types of accounts that are susceptible to criminal abuse;
-To require all appropriate elements of the financial services industry to report potential money laundering;
-To strengthen measures to prevent use of the U.S. financial system for personal gain by corrupt foreign officials and facilitate repatriation of stolen assets to the citizens of countries to whom such assets belong.

I like the last one, it basically exonerates Trump, "in a way".
