DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Everything Else... Michael Flynn - National Security Advisor

Uh...YOU BROUGHT UP THE BILL CLINTON comparison out of no where, which had nothing to do with the thread. Who's reaching way back to start whining now?

PDX was just pointing out what a cluster this current administration has been so far. That's not liberal whining. Everyone should be concerned, no matter what side of the political spectrum they fall on.

I only mentioned it because PDX was complaining about Trump. See how that works?

Oh boy the way back machine..."I know you are, but what I'm I?" argument.

We can't be anymore mature then this? Probably not. Whatever.

Nothing. I was responding to PDX saying these things are unusual to a new administration, which they are not.

True, the Watergate Administration was fairly similar. I'm sure there were others also.

I did not root for Obama to fail, he did enough of that on his own. If a President fails, America could fail. I never wanted that.
I did however root for Congress to slow down his spending and was pleased they held it to only $10 Trillion.

Wow.. considering Petraeus for Flynn's job? He pleaded guilty to passing on classified info..

And repubs were wound up about hills server?

Hypocrite much?

Just to let you know, the National Security Advisor is not a member of the President's cabinet.

In Obama's administration ......

Cybersecurity Czar Melissa Hathaway stepped down in August 2009, citing "personal reasons".

Detainees Affairs Officer Phil Carter left in October 2009, also citing personal reasons.

Top White House Lawyer Greg Craig quit in November 2009, over plans to release photos of suspected torture.

Steve Rattner, Obama's "car czar", stepped down in July 2009, amid scandals his firm made illegal payments to gain state pension funds.

There are more, but the point is that these things happen, either because people screw up, they can't handle the job they took on, or because something from their past comes up, that the administration either can't bury, or decides they don't want to.

Here's a link , but it's to the right wing Huffington Post .... s I don't now how much you'll be able to trust it.

Also, Obama's Chair of the Council of Economic Affairs, Christina Romner, left her position in September 2010.

Lawrence Summers, The Director of Council of Economic Affairs left in December 2010.

Peter Orszag, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, left his office in July 2010.

Carol Browner, Director of the Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy, left her office in just over 2 years, in March 2011.

Jim Jones, Obama's National Securuty Advisor, left his office in October 2010.

Dennis Blair, Director of National Intelligence, left his position in May of 2010.

Leon Panetta also left his position as Secretary of Defense in less than 2 years,

We forget these things over time. I was shocked at just how much turnover there was in Obama's 1st administration, because I sure didn't remember it all.

Probably because Conservatives didn't cry about these things the way Liberals do.

Nice attempt at condescension there (one of your favorite tactics on this board), but you're wrong.

Instead of actually debating PDX with facts and opinions, you were just trying to throw anything negative against the wall from a former Dem POTUS to just to counteract anyone complaining about the current administration. That is spit-balling at its best and childish at its worse. You might as well just call him a big stupid poopy-head for criticizing Trump. It would be just as non-relevant as bringing BC.

Exactly.

Sorry you can't handle Clinton being brought into the conversation about his MANY indiscretions as President. It is 100% relevant when you liberal lemmings whine and complain about Trump treating women badly. Because Clinton did the same thing. It makes you hypocrites to complain about one but the other is Ok.

Be careful Eve, many on here support scum like Bill and voted for his enabling wife to lead us.

How anyone could vote for either of them is beyond me. They are both trash.

Maybe you did, maybe you didn't. No matter though, I know plenty of people that did and they didn't care about America at all with a black president in charge. They said it all along. It was heard loud and clear. "Going to take back our country" make the greatest country on earth "Great again" They wanted America to fail so we can be saved somehow by them. Hell they are still hoping Obama fails and hoping his legacy is wiped clean and covered over with lies. They're still people out there waiting for Obama to screw up their lives.

And neither one of them are your president.

So your cheese is ready to serve with that whine.

Clinton didn't rape a child like DJT did.

Interesting you bring up Obama's Legacy. As I see it, his Legacy is perfect and admirable. His Legacy was to put my Republicans in charge of the Presidency, the House, the Senate, and most of the Governorships of this Nation! He has also overseen the death of the Liberal/Progressive agenda!

Mission Accomplished as far as I am concerned.

No, but he flew on the plane of his good buddy who did

Unlike many on here that prayed for Obama to fail, I do NOT wish that on Trump.

Obama success meant American Success..I said that then, And I'm sticking to that for Trump.

So no, I'm not happy that this happened. I'm not surprised by it, but I'm not overjoyed by it at all.

Spicer on TV now talking about this.

Wise thinking because after all, things like this are really important...

Experts say a North Korean ballistic missile test conducted over the weekend was likely not the first test of an intercontinental ballistic missile, or ICBM, capable of threatening North America.
The test, is likely the first move in a longer game of brinkmanship that will play out over the next several months between the new U.S. president and a North Korea reportedly very close to rounding out its missile arsenal with a long-range ICBM.

How does Melissa look? Any gum chewing this time?

Who is Melissa?

Time to have our school kids back at drills, scrambling and hiding under desks.

Ah comon, everyone knows "Melissa" is the Secret Service Code name for Spicer

Or the washed up actor code...

You have to actually be a washed up actor or actress for them to use them as a code name.

For instance... Spicer is "Chachi" Or maybe "Baio" in the washed up actor code.

Interesting Tweet by Trump this morning...

"The real story here is why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington? Will these leaks be happening as I deal on N.Korea etc?"

Nooo, you mean Alec. He is the leader of the washed up actor code.

Alec who?

Petraeus is worse than Snowden. The fact that the Don is taking a meeting with him is shameful.

What leaks? Trump can't actually be surprised about leaks can he?

He's tweeting out all sorts of stuff including foreign policy to the world while holding briefings and security calls in public view.

but if Trump was proposing something you disagreed with, why would you hope he succeeded?

I hoped Obama would fail for a wide range of reasons. The policies he was able to get through have been a net loss for most Americans and much of that was predictable. I can make a list if you'd like.

That's an interesting comment. Out of curiosity where do you fall on the love 'em or hate 'em scale with Snowden?

Ytown, lol, I was baiting 40. OCD stirring the pot a little...

So it looks to be another rough week for our glorious leader.

Leaks, infighting, checks and balances by the other two branches, people not letting him have his way, betrayal... time to put your big boy pants on Mr. President or step down.

i know you asked CHS,

but with me, While what snowden did bring to light something that is massively important, what he did was illegal. doesn't matter the "good" he did. he needs to face punishment.

it's the same logic you guys use with illegal immigrants, FYI.

He had a great meeting with the Canadian pm yesterday. But I understand you liberals can't mention that because it doesn't fit your narrative.
