Republicans (including Sen. John Cornyn) disagree with Ted Cruz

People tend to throw all of the blame at the sitting President. On issues of Foreign policy it is the sitting President's fault. 
 
You can also fault a sitting Presidents economic policy where appropriate. Areas such as budget and tax rates come to mind. 
 
BUT, to single out any sitting President for the price of a specific commodity Is a bit much. WHY? well if there is an upheaval in a commodity market more than just the price of the specific commodity will be affected. It will "Trickle Down" throughout the economy.
 
What you can blame on a President is a money policy that cedes control to unelected central bankers and their ability to take a fiat currency for their own goals. This is the primary reason for the stock market growth. It's using the Fed to pump money into stocks to create a rosier picture of the overall economy. Just as the creation of millions of part time jobs lowers the unemployment rate. 
 
Where the house of cards falls apart is in income growth. Right now literally the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. 
 
Obama and every sitting President post Nixon had the opportunity to end this glorified Ponzi Scheme by simply auditing the Federal Reserve. Based on what I've read I think it is entirely possible that the Republic would not survive the publishing of a full audit. I firmly believe that if an audit were conducted and published that we would have a second civil war. How violent it would be is of course open for discussion. Same would happen if the currency collapses. Ron Paul is a bit more pessimistic than I on this but it could happen..

Dude really? While I like some of Paul's attributes, do you have to include him in every one of your post, like he can do no wrong?

Don't like the post? Don't read it!  Kind of like Abortion.
 
Don't believe in abortion? Don't have one.

You miss the point that ISIS would have reared its head sooner or later with or with the prison. It was cooking for several decades, Iraq was a vacuum that would soon be filled and ISIS lays at the feet of Barack Obama .

 
ISIS would not have reared it's head sooner or latter because it would not exist were it not for the invasion.  Most of their senior leadership are former Al Queda in Iraq members.  There was no Al Queda in Iraq before the invasion.  See the connection?
 

Thanks for proving my point that more than your old worn out shells were found.....and Bush didn't lie.
 
 

 
He did lie.  His whole justifcation was an active WMD program.  Which we know did not exist.  
 

 
Hussein made it appear he was active with WMD , fact.
 
 

 
So the death of all those people and a trillion dollars spent is all based on a "probably has them"?  If that's the case then why don't we invade North Korea?  They have an active WMD program and they do business with some rather unsavory people.
 

See ISIS got uranium for a dirty bomb from Iraq purportedly in Eu? Hope they don't got a couple ADM's  here.

 
Really?  Do you have any facts to support that?

I cut and pasted something to make a point. The Gruber/Nazi comparrison however leaves you without retort and their are other examples.
 
When Bush endorses Obama's actions in the ME what more proof do you need that we are ruled by tyrannts like Hitler?

 
Please stop.  All you're doing is making yourself look like an ignorant fool and trivializing the evils that Hitler and the Nazi's perpetrated.
 

Like for instance our recent attempts by the Obama Administration to regulate private ownership of firearms.and the German Firearms laws of 1938 Here's a very interesting tidbit from a somewhat unlikely source http://jpfo.org/filegen-a-m/GCA_68.htm
 
 

 
Oh yes, the John Waynesq fantasy that only if the Jews had guns they would not have ended up in the camps.  As if a Ruger would have stopped the Nazi's.  
 

There are very strong cases to be made that the Obama Regimes desire to remain in power via legal means.

 
So what conspiracy website did you cut and paste that from?

You need to study up on Wahhabi .

Which Hussein kept alive in the minds of those who made the decision.

Korea....LOL   Then we fight China.....LOL   
 
Probaly has them has turned into 'we found many'.
 
 
Really?  Do you have any facts to support that?
 
It has been repeatedly covered by many outlets.

You need to read up on AQI.
 
 
 
Korea....LOL   Then we fight China.....LOL   
 
Probaly has them has turned into 'we found many'.
 
But they have a an active WMD program and are hostile to us.  Are saying there could be consequences to invading North Korea? Guess no one thought there would be no consequences if we invaded Iraq.

Any hard evidence?  If it's true what they have is not weapons grade stuff.  Of course we would no one would have to worry about it is ISIS did not exist in the first place.

 

[777 fixer]

A war Demorats supported!

 
Like Harry Truman said "The buck stops here".  When it was all said and done GWB made the decision.

Only in that fantasy world of yours.

 

[SparrowHawk]

Conspiracy Websites? What are they? Are they the sites where everything that has happened in the worlf since JN. 20th, 2001 is George Bush's fault. Or are they ones where if you disagree with Obama you're automatically a racist?

 

[777 fixer]

So what CT site did you get it off?

LOL....ISIS....it was a seed planted deep in the roots of Wahhabism dude, only needing a little water to sprout. It would have reared its ugly head with or without Iraq sooner or later.
 
Korea.....LOL  
 
Any idea why Obama didn't have the nuts to attack Syria like he was bloviating?

 

[777 fixer]

 
LOL....ISIS....it was a seed planted deep in the roots of Wahhabism dude, only needing a little water to sprout. It would have reared its ugly head with or without Iraq sooner or later.

 
It's called the invasion of Iraq.  What you're saying is open to debate.  What is an established fact is that ISIS exists becasue of the invasion.  There is no getting around that.

The invasion was in Afghanistan. 
 
With Islamic radicalism growing in leaps and bounds and infighting within Wahhabi groups, and utter chaos in many ME countries, it was only a matter of time before an attempt at a Caliphate would emerge...somewhere.

Iraq welcomed us as liberating heroes.
