| Opinion/Editorial |
Well the New York Times this morning is doing their big stories OPED of 2014 or their take on whats important to them. The title is "Torture, Race, Marijuana and 12 Other Big Issues of 2014" laughable.
It begins "Wars, pestilence, political upheaval and mass street protests in America were some of the top stories of 2014. Here’s how The Times’s editorial board reacted to the year’s biggest news events as they unfolded."
Of course the NYT is going to take Obama's side on this lol
The Senate Goes Republican
Republicans won control of the Senate for the first time since 2006, and expanded their hold on the House. They campaigned mostly by attacking President Obama on every policy matter, but offered few ideas of their own. No one promised bipartisan compromise, though President Obama suggested there were areas of common interest. The best that Senator Mitch McConnell, the next Senate majority leader, could muster was a vow that maybe the two parties didn’t “have to be in perpetual conflict.”
Any ideas are better than Obama's ideas of Bigger Government

Enemies No More
In one sweeping announcement, President Obama restores full diplomatic relations with Cuba and ends more than 50 years of hostility and sanctions that probably helped the Castro regime stay in power. The move — which included a prisoner swap — could become Mr. Obama’s most significant foreign policy legacy.
Next to Obamacare a big dumb ass mistake
Die-Ins and Protests of Police Abuses
Police brutality became a national issue this summer with the shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, in Ferguson, Mo., which set off riots in November when a grand jury did not indict the officer involved. The issue spawned a national movement after a New York City police officer was captured on video applying the chokehold that killed Eric Garner, an unarmed black man. After a grand jury refused to indict the officer, demonstrators of all races took to the streets from coast to coast chanting or carrying signs with Mr. Garner’s last words: “I can’t breathe.”
In the Michael Brown incident the Officer was correct in what he did the NYT knows this.As far as the Eric Garner incident the officers were wrong
Bombing Syria and Iraq
The terrorist group the Islamic State seized northern parts of Iraq, including the city of Mosul, and large swaths of Syria, beheaded journalists and brutalized and murdered countless civilians in areas under its control. President Obama responded to this new threat by authorizing bombing campaigns against Islamic State targets in Syria and Iraq. Though he had promised to extract America from wars in the Middle East, he led the nation into this military conflict without Congressional approval, which was just fine with a Congress that has happily avoided debating the war. Mr. Obama has already warned that the fight against the Islamic State will take years.
Of course the NYT is going to take Obama's side on this lol

Executive Action on Immigration
President Obama’s decision to bypass Congress was the most significant development on immigration policy in decades. In allowing perhaps five million unauthorized immigrants to stay in this country without fear of deportation, Mr. Obama drew the outlines of a sensible immigration policy. Many Republicans in Congress are furious, because they don’t want to go there.
Sensible NO ONE WANTS THEM HERE NYT!
The Details of Torture Revealed
After years of delay, the Senate Intelligence Committee released an executive summary of its report on the Central Intelligence Agency’s torture of terrorism suspects, detailing sadistic, illegal interrogation methods, which included waterboarding, beating, sleep deprivation, confining detainees in coffins and “rectal feeding.” It’s time to investigate the perpetrators, starting with former Vice President Dick Cheney and former C.I.A. director George Tenet.
Yeah ok NYT so the ISIS and other punk ass satanic groups can lop heads off but you are all ok with that
