Donald Trump to Provide Voice to Romney Robocalls...

As reported by ABC news. I have nothing to add to that, apparently, non-joke. Paraphrasing the POTUS, good luck with that...

F@#k Yoo (and Bolton Too)

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

John Yoo and John Bolton, enthusiastic torture supporters and haters of general Constitutional freedoms, wrote in aOp-ed in today's NY Times criticizing POTUS for agreeing to comply with a European code of conduct for space and thus, in their demented little minds, circumventing a Constitutional requirement that the Senate ratify any treaties. I don't even know where to begin with the hubris of it all so I will not say much. The fact that either of them are passing any judgment on Constitutionality is laughable. Even more hilarious is the fact that their analysis is borderline mentally handicapped. 

The Obama administration recently declared that America would follow, though not sign, a European Union code of conduct for outer space — a transparent end run around the constitutional requirement that the Senate ratify all treaties. This code, drafted by Europeans who do not bear America’s global responsibilities, restricts military activities in space as well as some peaceful dual-use technologies, like the multistage rockets used to launch commercial satellites.

Soooo, the President is NOT signing the treaty and agreeing to abide by its term and thus setting foreign policy? That is not in his purview since when exactly? And the fact that he is not signing, and thus committing, this course can be changed at any time. What the hell are they arguing? They attempt to address this point by baldly claiming to know the inner minds and objectives of the administration because of what some unnamed administration officials "loudly proclaimed" while in academia.

Really, an unbelievable piece of argument. My head is spinning with the stupidity. Good lord I hate them.
