It's now official, he's insane and it's time to remove him from office.

This news story needs to be on the front page of every newspaper in America.

One or more of the "penalties" must not serve our own interests/ purposes.
I'd want to know what Yemen et al demands are.

Does seem strange that it couldn't be approached with the same type of exemptions/BS as PAYGO.

You're a little bit nuts yourself, Black Tea.

So you are ok with the U.S. funding countries that use children in war?

It's OK. They mailed us plenty of explosives as a refund.

[Silencio]

So, you're saying we should cut off military aid to Yemen on the exact same day the Administration announced that explosive parcels were intercepted that had been shipped from... Yemen!?

Why do you want the terrorists to win?

I'm having trouble finding the part where Obama is okay with it, but far be it from me to argue with someone who is so anxious to make the case that Obama is insane. Projection, anybody?

And now, they said, the four countries are effectively being given a year to change their ways.

“We put these four countries on notice by naming them as having child soldiers, and thereby making them automatically subject to sanctions, absent the exercise of a presidential waiver,” said Tommy Vietor, a White House spokesman. “Our intention is to work with them over the next year to try to solve this problem — or at least make significant progress on it — and reassess our posture towards them next year, depending on the progress they have made.”

Human rights groups expressed concern, saying that the decision raised questions about the administration’s seriousness about protecting children, sometimes not yet in their teens, from the rigors and hazards of military service.

Hmmm, insane, let's see.....I've got Black Tea, an individual who repeatedly posts alleged facts that he cannot back up......I've got President Obama, Constitutional Law Professor, Senator, President, Community Organizer, Successful Husband and Father.......

Black Tea loses, but at least dresses for Halloween all year round in his tin foil hat.

Black Tea,
Do you not like Obama?
Would be interested to hear your reasons.

This is the last you will hear from Black Tea in this thread. The trend is to post something crazy and eventually run away when getting asked for proof or defense (or being told to shut up when they have nothing).

This is the ongoing pattern of certain posters on this forum. Pretty sad.
