Disgusting. Obama continues his quest to undermine the safety of this country. First he grants amnesty to millions of criminals and now he wants leaders like this who won't hesitate to support him when he finally illegally declares martial law. Will this country be able to last long enough to get a strong republican President like Trump into the white house in January of 2017 or will Obama declare martial law first, suspend the Constitution, and declare himself "forever king"?

What is wrong with a gay man holding this position? Why are you focusing on his sexuality anyways, if you think he's unqualified give some reasons.

Dude, we're talking about Star.

Also, how can Obama both be a weak, ineffectual president and leader, and a dangerous dictator possibly able to destroy and control the US in the next 1 and a half years....its like Republicans want him to be both a bumbling fool and a evil, genius mastermind at the same time.

Amusing how you're lumping in all republicans instead of a minority. I coild make those kind of useless generalizations all day and we wouldn't get anywhere. I expect better from someone who criticized guys like TI and star for doing the same.

You can always find a couple reasonable people even in the most stupid and ridiculous movements, the excessive anti-Obama stance, particularly of the contradictory type I asked about, is extremely prevalent in the Republican Party, and amongst it's followers.

IMO I think it's a fair statement to say that most Republicans view Obama as largely incompetent and ineffectual (though I admit I haven't looked up any data to justify this belief). Can you justify the statement that they hold this view as well as the view that he plans to appoint himself the God King of America by declaring martial law like Star does? Because Star seems to actually be clinically insane.

Also, holy shit, Robtard isn't the one who came up with Forever King, Star did? haermm

Ahh, our resident clueless German who thinks he knows all about everything American-related comes in to bash all republicans right on scedule. Obviously, his post is not even worth replying to. Democrats are the ones who're destroying this country with their socialistic ways. Not republicans. Get that thru your thick ****ing skull, clueless one.

The democratic party was excessively anti bush so what's the difference? Most republicans dont hate Obama as much as they prefer someone else in office. I know only a few who really hate him.

Oh, and since nobody has asked this: what does him being gay have to do with anything? You didn't even mention its relevance in your post.

Star, this isn't even a Democrat/Republican thing. We're asking if your problem is with his sexual orientation.

Blame Bardock. He's the one who started bashing republicans.

I don't give a shit if someone is gay (as long as they don't try any f*g crap on me) but having a gay person in charge of our army tends to worry me, yes. I don't care how much qualified they say he is for job it still makes me concerned.

If he's qualified his sexual preference is irrelevant. The only complaint you can make iscthe possibility that this was done as a political statement.

Why?

His criticism is valid, tbh.

Do I have a statistical analysis of these contradictory views held by Republicans? No.

All im saying is that from watching Fox News, listening to Republican politicians and viewing commentary on these issues, I often notice that they oscillate between blaming Obama for being an ineffectual president who doesn't achieve what he and the US wants, and attacking Obama for allegedly being too effective and successful in what they perceive as a socialist agenda.

If your experience of that differs, fair enough. I shall not ask you to scientifically prove it.

Taken as an event by itself wouldn't bother me quite as much if not for the fact that Obama has been deliberately weakening our military in more ways than one. Like firing all of our best top military commanders:

This seems just like another part of his plan of weakening America. The military commanders he fired were loyal to the Constitution and the American people. They would never've used our military against American citizens whether Obama ordered them to or not. It just seems like he's putting people in leadership positions who will support him when the time comes that he will try to take our guns away and the American people fight back to defend their rights. Gays are often persecuted in this country so one of them in charge of our army would probably not be as loyal to the American people when that time comes because, in his mind, they are all the same people who has viewed him in a bad light ever since learning he was gay. I don't care if he took an oath to the Constitution or the people because Obama did the same thing when he became President and he breaks the law/Constitution all the damn time. Oaths don't mean anything to people of low morality (like gays, for instance).

This seems just like another part of his plan of weakening America.

Obama isn't intelligent enough to weaken America.

While I certainly agree with you about Obama's low intelligence (he's a liberal democrat, afterall), how much intelligence does it take to know how to weaken a country when you're in charge of it?
