Every executive does this....even though I probably disagree with Obama about 97% of the time; I do agree with the vast majority of the drug related ones he penned...However, I never saw this one coming:

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

He only did this because Assange agreed to be extradited to the US if they commuted Manning's sentence.

WHAT!?! I hadn't heard that! FUCK THAT!
My gf keeps showing me videos of Obama and his family, and what a 'loving father' he is, and great all around guy. I keep telling her 'no, he's a fucking cunt', and she just gets pissed off at me. I think it's because she's half black. She sure as fuck doesn't look half black. I told he she can call me a Jive Turkey, but to stop defending Obama to me.

I'm one of the more liberal people here, and yes, Obama is an establishment cunt.
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Julian Assange will not hand himself in because Chelsea Manning's release won't happen immediately, lawyer says

Yeah, Obama sucks, even if he is a good family man and all that jazz. That being said, It was nice having a President that could communicate in complete sentences after the "Dubya" years. I have a feeling that I'm gonna miss those complete sentences.

Trump interrupts himself with incomplete sentences.
This is an interesting interview with Assange, I'm sure you fellas have already seen in:
I'm glad that Assange will not be offering himself up to the wolves, but everything to do with politics is just starting to get increasingly depressing. I heard the news of Manning this morning. I was thrilled. Then I have to hear the insidious intentions behind it. Why can't any of these fucking cunts ever just do the right thing, because it's the right thing to do? Are greed and power really so persuasive? They never had that much hold on me.

It was harder to hate Obama because of his charisma and wit. Now that thats gone, we're really going to miss it. Trump's existence helps his historic exiting approval ratings.

Yeah, it's like working for a shitty company that doesn't pay you for your overtime, and just as the CEO resigns, a 3 year old who is infatuated with their own urine, is hired in his stead.

Is anyone following this story on social media?
It seems to me the same crowd that were cheering on assange and wikileaks last week are now calling for the death of one of his prime sources.

By prime source I'm referring to Manning.
I just cant comprehend the complete 180 the right has made on leaking govt information. Assange and wikileaks were practically boston tea party participants back when it was screwing over the Democrats. Now that Obama made the move to pardon a wikileaks first ballot hall of famer, suddenly theyre evil again.
Or maybe theyre bitching because of the expected assange extradition. Idk..

They just wanna bitch about everything Obama does. They are fucking idiots. The funny thing is, idiot Republican voters are equally fickle.
Watching the Republican electorate, particularly on this forum, is like watching a cat chasing a laser pointer.

Excellent point. It doesn't matter what Obama does, if he does it, it's bad.

Yeah, what's even funnier, is it's the same douchebags who still sing GWB's praises, and they are the same president, almost exactly, except Obama knows how to talk like a growed-up!

I really tried to give the guy an open slate ( which I will try with Trump as well) but man.... the fuck ups....then I sounded like everyone else after everything he did. He did seem genuine about his intentions....but the path to hell is paved...
I do agree with the pardons/commutations for drug crimes as I stated earlier.... would it be good to start another thread on things people here agreed with that Obumer did? May be interesting

If you get the urge, start the thread, don't be shy. I start shitty threads about dumb bullshit, or just to get my beloved jollies all the damn time.
Oooohuhuhuhhhhhhh.... Jolllies.... mmm
We need more people around the political forum. Fresh minds. So please, get all up on this motherfucker, buddy!

Because that classified info was on illegal actions the US government was doing. Do you think that the government should be above the law and allowed to do whatever it wants? Do you think watergate was okay and that those reporters and the whistleblower(s) should have been prosecuted instead of nixon?

Yes, HU does think that we should bend over and let uncle sam lube up his cock and rape our freedom, and whatever freedom the rest of the world enjoys, in the name of his own personal security, because he pees his pants every time the word 'ISIS' is mentioned on Fox News. Republicans are a bunch of gun toting, pants pissing pussies, who strut around acting like tough guys.
