43 and 44 Believe in Faith-Based Initiatives. They both had to defend their faith in their first campaigns. They both spend like drunken sailors. I just like what Obama does to the country better than Bush.

And that's coming from a liberal athiest.

why would the govt want power? considering term limits for president and death for congressmen who benefits from this control?

[SpurNation]

LOL. The pendulum switches and the concerns one had now becomes the "cross to bare". This happens with every election where the balance of power switches from one party to the other.

For those that don't believe in mixing religion with politics...they're one and the same.

Politics...on the surface like religion...is about doing what sounds right. But underlying in the crevices of their operation both use manipulation and psycological deprevation of their followers in order to gain power and wealth for themselves.

Good question. We should consider this for eternity.

I'm sure some will.

It already has been going on for eternity.

Lebanese man is target of first rendition under Obama

And, he's not even a terrorist!

“A Lebanese citizen being held in a detention center here was hooded, stripped naked for photographs and bundled onto an executive jet by FBI agents in Afghanistan in April, making him the first known target of a rendition during the Obama administration,” the Los Angeles Times reported.

Raymond Azar, 45, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery, the only charge against him.

ACLU?

New York Times?

Hollywood?

The Democratic Party?

After nearly 8 years of holier-than-thou scoffing at President Bush’s desperate attempts to avoid another 9/11, liberals are using anti-terrorist techniques to catch white-collar criminals.

yoni must be one of those people cheering for libya!!!!!

[ChumpDumper]

Yes, Yoni wants Obama to fail in Afghanistan.

He said so.

Arrested along with Azar was Dinorah Cobos, 52, a naturalized American from Honduras. Cobos, who did not make the same claims of abuse, this week pleaded guilty to conspiracy and bribery.

Their case is different from the widely criticized "extraordinary renditions" carried out after the Sept. 11 attacks. In those cases, CIA teams snatched suspected Al Qaeda members and other alleged terrorists overseas and flew them, shackled and hooded, to prisons outside the United States without any arrest warrants or other judicial proceedings.

The FBI arrested Azar and Cobos with warrants signed by a federal magistrate. And the State Department, Talamona said, asked the government of Afghanistan "for its consent in advance to take these two individuals into custody and return them to the United States to stand trial. They consented to our request."

But Yoni is a well-known perpetrator of fraud himself, so it's no surprise he would jump to the defense of others doing the same thing.

[clambake]

the old yoni would be upset that these people will have their day in court.

[ChumpDumper]

Yoni believes in law and order.

Except when he doesn't.

The United States could not seek consent from (at that time of 9/11) Afganastan since the country was being controlled by the Taliban.

Different time, different political structure.
