    So a few days ago the state department did not veto the U.N. condemnation of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. No matter what your opinion is on this it is obvious he waited 8 years to do this. His last month as president. Total pussy move. We waiting until he would not have to deal with the aftermath. He didn't change his mind, nothing about the situation has changed. This was a pussy, hypocritical move.

    Obama just opened the floodgates and pardoned and/or commuted sentences for a record number of criminals. What does everyone think of this ability of the president to be above the law and pass judgment? (Not just Obama) Between this and sanctuary cities, what is that saying for respecting our laws? We can pick and choose which laws to obey and enforce?
