Flashback to 2007: Candidate Obama defends sanctuary cities, blames the federal government for not doing it's job

I wonder if Obama feels that way now? Obama has owned the federal government for going on 7 years. For the first two years after he was elected, Democrats owned both houses of Congress, with a super-majority in the Senate. They didn't pass comprehensive immigration reform or secure the border as Obama promised. Their disingenuous approach now seems to be to try and blame the Republicans. If we had a real press, instead of lapdogs, Obama and Democrats would be laughed out of Washington, DC.

Flashback to 2007: Senator Barack Obama claimed Iran wanted nuclear weapons to prevent "regime change."

 How could anyone this naive ever be elected president? The mainstream media completely failed their job.

Via National Review:
If President Obama seems less worried than Israel that Iran will obtain nuclear weapons as a result of his administration’s negotiations with the regime, maybe that’s because he’s less worried than Israel about Iran having nuclear weapons.
“I think Iran is like North Korea,” Obama told David Brooks when he was running for president in 2007. “They see nuclear arms in defensive terms, as a way to prevent regime change.”

Flashback to 2008: Candidate and Senator Obama sent an envoy to Iran and urged them to not sign a deal with outgoing Bush admin?

I would call Obama a hypocrite. The left should stay true to form and call him a traitor. 
Biden need not go back that far to find a senator who sent advice to a foreign power when similar “sensitive” negotiations were ongoing. Seven years back is far enough.
According to Pajamas Media columnist Michael Ledeen, in 2008, a Democratic senator sent a personal emissary to Tehran encouraging the mullahs not to sign an agreement with the outgoing Bush Administration as negotiations would take on a much friendlier tone following President Bush’s departure from office.
That senator was a presidential candidate at the time. His name was Barack Obama.
Perhaps Biden’s loophole in making his 36-year representation is that the message Senator Obama allegedly sent was not in written form. It was a verbal message delivered to Tehran’s leadership by Ambassador William G. Miller, who assured an enemy who was at war with us that a President Obama would be much more amicable to deal with.
While Biden suggests the GOP letter “undercut” Team Obama’s negotiations with Iran, what impact does he think presidential candidate Obama’s emissary had?

Flashback: EPA top administrators destroyed their computer files to thwart an investigation...

This occurred at the end of Bill Clinton's administration. Although the EPA was held in contempt by a judge, I don't think anyone was ever put in jail or punished in any way.  The Obama IRS seems to be following EPA's example.
WASHINGTON — A federal judge held the Environmental Protection Agency in contempt yesterday for destroying computer files during the Clinton administration that had been sought by a conservative legal foundation.
U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth also ordered the EPA to pay the Landmark Legal Foundation’s legal fees and costs because the agency disobeyed his order to preserve the electronic records of former chief Carol Browner.
Lamberth ordered the sanctions because he said the EPA had shown “contumacious conduct” — obstinate resistance to authority.
“This is a major victory for those who believe the EPA has an obligation to comply with the law,” said Landmark President Mark Levin.
“The EPA destroyed vast databases that would have revealed the extent to which Carol Browner and other top officials worked with environmental groups to issue last-minute regulations prior to the end of the Clinton administration,” he said.
Lamberth declined to hold Browner, two other EPA officials and the U.S. Attorney’s Office in contempt.
Lamberth had issued a protective order on Jan. 19, 2001, the day before the Clinton administration ended, instructing the EPA to preserve all documents that might be relevant to a Freedom of Information Act request by Landmark for documents about the agency’s contacts with outside groups.

Flashback: Obama promises to go through Congress if elected...

Liar, liar...
“I taught constitutional law for ten years, I take the Constitution very seriously. The biggest problems that we’re facing right now have to do with George Bush trying to bring more and more power into the executive branch and not go through Congress at all and that’s what I intend to reverse when I’m President”

Flashback Jan 2013: Obama brags about liberating Libya. Now, US urging all citizens to evacuate...

From Obama and Hillary's 60 Minute interview in January of 2013.


This is what is happening now in Libya.
As Libya deteriorates into an increasingly armed conflict between hardline Islamic groups and forces loyal to renegade Gen. Khalifa Hifter, the State Department urged U.S. citizens to leave the country as the U.S. began positioning troops to quickly evacuate Americans if necessary.

The amphibious ship Bataan with Ospreys and 1,000 Marines on board has moved into the eastern Mediterranean to be ready for a possible evacuation, CBS News correspondent David Martin reported. The ship had been taking part in an exercise with Jordan.

This is a significant increase over the 200 Marines who had been moved to Sigonella, Sicily, and a significant decrease in the distance Marines would have to travel to evacuate Americans.

The State Department on Tuesday night warned U.S. citizens against traveling to Libya and urged Americans currently in the North African nation to “depart immediately.” …

There is no evacuation currently planned for the U.S. Embassy staff in Tripoli, who can still use the airport if necessary, reported CBS News correspondent Margaret Brennan. Positioning the Marines is part of contingency planning put in place after the the 2012 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, in which U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans died.

This makes any accusations about Republicans fundraising off the WH Benghazi stonewall seem trivial, doesn't it? They should be ashamed, but democrats have no shame anymore.
