Thom Hartmann: How will the GOP Sabotage Obama's 2nd term?



If Barack Obama wins a second term in November - then he should expect the same thing he received from Republicans in his first-term: a barrage of attempts to de-legitimize his presidency. Already, Fox so-called News personality and prominent Republican voice Mike Huckabee has laid out the strategy - suggesting on GOP TV that Republicans should try to impeach President Obama over the attacks on our consulate in Benghazi, Libya. I guarantee you, Republicans in Congress are already planning this. So, be ready - because another four years of President Obama will mean another four years of obstruction, sabotage, and slander. Unless We The People out this Republican strategy to harm our nation, and stand up and say, "Enough!"

The Republicans already cleared him for it because they realized most of it was going on before he took office.

to Gitmo. That might shake them up.

I keep hoping that anonymous will expose the secret connection between Dick Cheney and Jeff Gannon.

There we're lives taken here... just like what could have happened with the Valery Plame incident. Or how about that whole thing that happened under Bush Jr... what was it called again? Oh yeah! Nine Eleven... The Bush administration wasn't exactly forthcoming about the details were they? And it certainly cost the lives of those in the towers, and a number of rescue workers... and put many many lives in jeopardy... in fact every life that was lost due to the entire war I believe, can be said to be directly connected... Does that also bespeak of a cover up? Lets think real hard about that... why YES... yes it does.

Using these kinds of tactics is like playing with fire...
your only gonna get burned.
