Obama Being Forced Out

Since the plane he uses is Air Force One, he's actually being Air Forced out of office any time he flies somewhere.

Jealous of someone who achieved more than you did?

Good morning, Pol. One of the conspiracies I often heard about Obama is that he's going to declare martial law and make himself president for another term. Seems like he sure gave that up without much fight.

Ha! That "giving up" part is just not him, X. It's just a ruse to allay his followers' worries - he's a guy who has never made a mistake yet, and being POTUS is so much fun! :lamo

President Obama has said that he's being forced out of office. Poor thing, lord knows he tries but no one told him that there is a Constitutional requirement that says he can only serve two terms. Somebody should have told him that he had two four-year contracts with no option to renew for a third. It's not his fault no one told him. How was he to know?

I wonder if Mr. Trump or Sen. Clinton have had any flunkies assigned to reading the Constitution for them?

Your leaps of illogic are magnificent.
 
CaptainCourtesy said:
You do realize that the Constitution IS dictating that he vacate office regardless of whether he would want to run or whether or not the public would want him to remain.

Conservatives always seem to be incapable of understanding subtlety of thought.

Beyond that, it was a joke. Humor is another subtlety that conservatives often miss.

You mean like when Trump suggested that Russia hack Hillary's emails? You guys didn't want to acknowledge that joke, but you expect this one to be taken in stride?

He had to study it in order to circumvent and destroy it. You're right.

He holds intense disdain for the Constitution.

Seriously, you sound like some kind of socialist...do you want to cap Obama's earnings after he leaves office?

He got those earnings while in office. I don't give a **** what he does afterward.

Obama has made all his tax returns public, even before he was president.

Know who didn't?

Who said anything about tax returns? Nobody in the conversation you were in.

If you have ever read the comments section over there, it would make you sick.
 
I really don't understand this thread at all. Obama made a joke, and somehow that makes him a dictator?

We know how much Obama made each year. Other poster was whining about how he made too much money...he was transparent with his earnings.

Unlike some....

Someone said "you will be quitting your day job soon" to which he replied "I'm not quitting, I'm being forced out". Which is all true. Quitting suggests that he's leaving prematurely. That's why when someone retires, we don't say they are quitting. Or when someone's contract is up, they aren't quitting. So he was merely pointing out that hes forced to leave because he can't stay any longer, but not that he's "quitting" as the person suggested.

If you actually think that any of this suggests that he wasn't aware of his term limits, then that says much more about you than about him.

No, he said that someone shouldn't be able to get rich at taxpayer expense, which I can't imagine anyone arguing against. Then you launched into a series of non-sequiturs, because apparently you wanted to argue against it.

There really needs to be a yellow journalism section to post this Breitbart stuff to.

If you are going to bring Trump into a discussion that has nothing to do with him, at least be honest about what he said.
