There will be political suicides and no telling what else. Some resignations from some of them too I would bet

I don't know what the straw was that broke the camels back but I'm happy that finally he has decided that it is a lost cause to try to reason with any of them and have decided to do what he can, f* them

I think he is a great president, perhaps the greatest after FDR. Jimmy Carter next. .


I wish he looked in FATCA that got hidden in the Hire Act. FATCA needed to be revised to get the rich homelanders and corporations that have banking outside of the USA. Instead it goes after snowbirds, green card holders and EXpats who have lived for decades out of the USA and are just ordinary people who became citizens where they live. Some have never even lived in the USA like those born to American parents who moved abroad or were born accidentally in the USA when mother visiting.

Many people hate Obama for that... I don't hate him, I hate the law. sigh....Oh well I am no longer a US citizen as I relinquished decades ago but I have empathy for those who are caught in this ill done law.

Unemployment is now 6.1%, not 6.7%. That chart needs to be updated!

its been a while since I've had any mountain high but if it was any indication to what they have today I'd say they are getting prettee damn high in Denver

There has been other times when I've wondered if he had just smoked some weed. Kinda like the old saying that a drunk can spot a drunk a mile away. I'm pretty good at that concerning tokers too

"if you have haters, it means you're doing something right".
Especially if those haters happen to be from the GOP.
