Prove it.
Where have you been for the past year?
The fed chairman, and the previous, and current treasury secretary said so, and so do all of the top economists in the world... The credit market would have absolutely frozen up. Credit cards would be denied even when there was credit left. No-one would be gettting mortgages, cars, or anything. Furthermore small businesses that rely on short term loans to get by would be unable to get them, collapsing the economy entirely.
lol.... yeah the sky is falling.
Actually, it's not the sky; it's the economy, and if you don't understand that, you must be link and mouse challenged. :roll:

Yet he is doing many of the same things Bush did, including your so called illegal wars of lies in Iraq and Afghanistan.. including sending MORE troops to Afghanistan to possibly take action in Pakistan.
There's nothing "so called" about the LIES the Bushwhackos spread to pimp their war in Iraq. Rather than post one of my "macros," do your own homework, and search for any of my posts with one of them, including names, dates, quotes and links to prove the point. If you can't do that much, you're not worth the effort to discuss it further.
The war in Afghanistan is the war against those enemies who actually attacked us on 9/11, the war we undertook with the consent and approval of the large majority of the entire world community, including many Islamic nations... You remember... the war we should and would already have won if your fucking jackoff EX-Traitor In Chief and his criminal gang hadn't pulled our troops and resources, there, to squander them in his war of LIES in Iraq.
Apparently you are for killing innocent children and babies in an unjust and illegal war. But, your position doesn't surprise me at all because you have no respect for the Constitution.. if you did, you wouldn't support shredding it with nearly every post you make about wanting international laws or courts to apply to our Presidents.
I'm not sure which is greater, your blatant ignorance of
the U.S. Constitution and our laws or your eager willingness to prove it. :Q
U.S. Constitution: Article II
.
.
Section 2.
The President...
.
.
... shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur;
By definition, treaties have the force of law within the United States. The only restiction is that they cannot trump or overrule the Constitution, itself. If the President signs and Congress approves a treaty subjecting the U.S. to international law, such as the Geneva Conventions and other laws against torture, the provisions of that treaty are as binding as any other law.
Do you only open your mouth to change feet?
