NDAA Signed = Not a Happy New Year’s After All

Well, he’s done it:

President Obama signed on Saturday the defense authorization bill, formally ending weeks of heated debate in Congress and intense lobbying by the administration to strip controversial provisions requiring the transfer of some terror suspects to military custody.

“I have signed this bill despite having serious reservations with certain provisions that regulate the detention, interrogation, and prosecution of suspected terrorists,” Obama said in a statement accompanying his signature.

The White House had originally threatened to veto the $662 billion bill, considered must-pass legislation, over the language that requires mandatory military custody for suspects linked to al-Qaida or its affiliates, even if they are captured in the U.S. Just before the House and Senate passed the bill comfortably, the White House said it would support the bill’s compromise language that, as tweaked by conference committee, would not impede the administration’s ability to collect intelligence or incapacitate dangerous terrorists.

Still, administration officials have admitted publicly the final provisions were not the preferred approach of this administration.

You know, if you have “serious reservations” about a bill, the sensible thing to do would be to veto it. That’s why the veto power was given to the president in the first place! For a constitutional scholar, Mr. Obama doesn’t seem to know very much about the constitution is quite knowledgeable and sincere about the power of the presidency and the required performance of the United States federal government through the authority vested in the Constitution. Have a good day.

When in doubt, don’t. If he wasn’t fully persuaded, he shouldn’t have signed it.

As a President it’s not easy to make decisions . That’s why we should vote for a president that we can trust to make the right decisions for us.

The Consumer Guarantee Act only applies to retailers and does not cover private transactions between private individuals. The act also applies to gifts from a retailer, not just purchased products. Thanks.

Do you have to be attractive? Absolutely not, however you do have to have some kind of style. Universal wants to sign new artists that are not only talented, but also marketable. Hire a stylist and a photographer to put together a few promotional photos to accompany your CD. Thanks.

Reach each pinkie finger over the index finger string and pick up the thumb string that is farthest away from you. Release the string on your thumbs, making sure to keep the string on your pinkie and index fingers. Thanks.
