with Cheney's policies! It will backfire. He is becoming a bigger embarrassment than Condi!

what is causing this extreme (next to war) irrational behavior.

Thanks to the Internet humans are able to go around their leaders.

Trolling for trolls is a hobby.

Who is to blame for snooping on PM Merkel? Obama feigns and then blames SNOWDEN (damn him!) as the reason why there's a "trust problem"...Our President just blamed the messenger, let the record show.

That amounts to a political coop.

So if one of your agencies does crap on it's own you have claim it was a mistake and then prove you can rein it in.

Note that nobody has been FIRED over it. (That we know of.)
