The subject on this thread is race but since you decided to go elsewhere, fine. For 8 yrs The GOP tried to handcuff the Obama administration.
The GOP did so with the intention of making Obama a lame duck president so when a republican became president they could take all the credit & try to convince every American the GOP way is the only way.
Paul Ryan withheld $26B from the AHCA.
Congressional GOP members reduced Obama's request for Benghazi by $128M. No question it was a dangerous place. Why a small security force to guard the compound further endangering Americans assigned there?
They wanted to see Obama fail. Admiral Lyons (ret) & CEO of the Lyons corporation, along with members of the GOP caucus said if proper channels had been used reinforcements could've been there in an hour. An hour????!!!!
Boots on the ground from day one should've been the calling!
They also blame Obama for giving mega bucks to Iran. An international court made the decision so the US govt had to comply. The money is a refund to Iran for fighter jets that were ordered by Irans pre revolutionary govt (1979). The jets were never delivered due to Irans assets being frozen immediately after the US embassy seized & hostages taken.
Some republicans even went so far as to say unmarked planes were used & delivered the cash to unmarked Iranian runways. Cash had to given because Irans banking system was in disarray.
They also blamed him for our military being undersized & undermanned. Its congress that withheld funding. We are paying for it now with our cyber security being compromised, challenged by foreign countries. Recently Congress gave the green light for the approval of over $750M for military upgrades which have to be with getting cybersecurity a major ungrade; not so much with increasing the number of ships, armored vehicles, fighter planes, etc.
Since you chose to change the subject that's not too surprising. Its a GOP ploy for many years. Since the subject of race got too hat in the kitchen for you, I understand.
