Obama issues signing statement on $106B war bill
By Michael O'Brien | The Hill
President Obama signed the $106 billion war-spending bill into law Friday, but not without taking a page from his predecessor and ignoring a few elements in the legislation.
Obama included a five-paragraph signing statement with the bill, including a final paragraph that outlined his objections to at least four areas of the bill.
President George W. Bush was heavily criticized for his use of signing statements, declaring he'd ignore some elements of legislation by invoking presidential prerogative. Read more.

Obama catches " I'M THE DECIDERITIS"....
This is a very virulent disease that easily infects male residents of the White House - there is no known cure.
"there is no known cure..."
Actually there are two:
1.) No re-election.
2.) A patriotic, non-violent revolution by the masses.
Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha! Yeah, number two will happen! It's like herding turtles to get sheeple to quit bitching and start DOING---or NOT DOING, whichever the case may be.

Many warned of Obama the War Criminal, they can observe reality
Many knew the crimes of the Clinton and Bush administrations would continue under Obama. They are all important parts of the worlds biggest terrorist orginazation which is the multi national millitary industrial complex funded by the largest funders of international terrorism which is we the US tax payer. These three and many others are guilty of treason. The punishment for treason is execution. I am opposed to the death penalty, however the murder and genocide these three and many in congress the pentegon, and Federal Reserve Bank are responsible for make me think that the death penalty for these criminals should be considered.
