Sheriff David Clarke: Everything Obama Touches Turns to Crap
2015-07-20
[PJ Media] Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke told Judge Jeanine Pirro on Saturday that everything President Obama touches "turns to crap."

Appearing on Justice with Judge Jeanine to talk about the recent attack on the military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Clarke told Pirro, "One of the things that would help us that the Commander in Chief, President Obama, did not do-- or what he did do-- is he gutted the Department of Defense 1033 program." He said the program, which sent military surplus equipment to local communities, helped law enforcement respond to counterterrorism situations like the one in Chattanooga. "He gutted that."

"Everything that he does just comes up wrong. I've never seen a president like this--that everything he touches tends to turn to crap," he added.

#8  What happens when it's guys like you and me protesting (peacefully) against the most recent violation of the constitution? Name that law enforcement shows up with an overwhelming show of force. You gonna put flowers in their guns?
This is all hypothetical of course.

#7  Unless you're dealing with a city of several million, the only 'para'-military force should be directly under the control of the state's National Guard, along with a state established rule of when, where, and how (ROE) that it is employed. Mother-may-I approval required by the state. Even then the municipal units should follow the same ROEs. The Mumbai attack, by you know who, where and for what purpose, means municipals need a shorter response time to implement action.

#6  The local police have no business using military equipment. They are not trained for it and in SOME cases are not the correct people to be using it.
I do not like a show of military force at events the government does not approve of.

#5  Everything progressives touch turns to crap. Then they keep having to force everyone to say it isn't crap so they don't have to face that reality. Thus re-education camps are born.

#4  I tend to agree with the Sheriff. Of course, "O" and his supporters are celebrating what would be called his/their failures as huge successes, e.g. the bum Iran odious deal, Obamacare, etc.

#3  The Midas touch means that everything one touches turns to gold. Everything Obama touches turns to crap. Maybe we should call that the Obama touch.

#2  Socialism. After you get past their tired denunciation of America for its failings of attaining perfection and becoming the Crystal City, you find what they have to really offer falls far shorter in delivery and offerings other than the whine of 'we meant well'.
