Traitor
: a person who is not loyal to his or her own country, friends, etc. : a person who betrays a country or group of people by helping or supporting an enemy

1: one who betrays another's trust or is false to an obligation or duty
2: one who commits treason


Affirmation:—"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Traitor? Yuuup!

All the dumb conspiracy shit in your post aside, as much as we might hate it, it's not treasonous to attempt to be compassionate toward Muslims.

Obama is a shitty president but he's not a traitor. Grow up.

I've always believed in government incompetence over conspiracy theories. But with Obama . . . is it even possible to be this incompetent?

He starts off by giving $14 trillion to the big banks. None of them are prosecuted for robosigning and fraud during the housing bubble. He continues with the Affordable Care Act (giving billions of dollars to insurance companies while leaving millions uninsured or with massively increased premiums). During his tenure the US national debt has doubled (granted, quite a bit of this was Bush's fault). Now the Fed has just raised interest rates into the teeth of a recession which will soon lead to the collapse of the greatest asset price bubble in American history. In 6 months everyone will realize just how badly Keynesianism has failed.

He foments wars in Libya and Syria that have killed hundreds of thousands of Arabs. Those Arabs are now streaming into Europe and may very well rip that continent apart. He attempts to start a war with China by sailing into their claimed territorial waters for no good reason. He attempts to start a war with Russia by overthrowing the government in the Ukraine and replacing them with a bunch of Neonazis. And all of this after winning the Nobel Peace Prize!

I'm seriously starting to wonder if he really is the Manchurian Candidate. TRUMP (or even Bernie) sweeping into Washington and fucking over all these bankers and career politicians while Hillary rots in jail is going to be incredibly cathartic.

Agreed. However, a few things:

-Rubio will likely be the Republican nominee, and has a not-remote chance at beating either Hillary or Bernie. Rubio is bought and paid for just like Hillary / Obama and Bush before him.

-Even if Trump or Bernie are elected, the only branch of our government currently more corrupt and parasitic than the presidency is Congress. They would 'sweep into Washington' and right into a lame duck presidency, until people get the hint and 95% of incumbents in Congress get replaced with genuine leaders.

-Bernie is still unlikely to beat Hillary nationally unless Hillary fucks something up.

Agreed, unfortunately.

If you damn guys would help the Bernie train instead of hopping on it once it leaves the station, we can get him there. He's easily 50% the favorite and that's with 4chan trumping all day. Hillary is a joke and her history is an affair of flip flops bad decisions and failures. But the damn internet would rather complain about flat earth and Muslims than do anything about it.

Guys burn her fucking feminazzi campaign to the ground, it behoves you in every way!

I think as the economy continues to worsen there is a good chance 2/3 or more of the current Congress is swept away in a wave of populist rage. Even if the primaries are somehow manipulated to produce a Hillary vs Rubio/Cruz election, I think Trump just asks Bernie to be his VP and they crush both of them in the actual election (despite massive election fraud by both established parties).

Maybe I'm being too optimistic, but both the Republicans and the Democrats have spent the past 20 years shitting on the American middle class, and people are starting to get angry.

Could someone post a logical argument from an atheist as to why an agnostic is wrong or dumb? I've never really had one but can imagine they would have at least one.

There isn't one. Also agnosticism and atheism aren't mutually exclusive. One pertains to matters of knowledge, and the other to belief.

Agnostic Atheist: We can't know whether there is a God, but I believe there isn't.
Gnostic Atheist: I believe there is no God and I claim to know it because of "evidence" x, y, z.
Agnostic Theist: We can't know whether there is a God, but I believe there is.
Gnostic Theist: I believe there is a God and I claim to know it because of "evidence" x, y, z.
