Obama's problem is that he speaks behind a podium too much, no one can see his pants! (which are very nicely creased)

What I'd be really interest in seeing is a poll of President Bush's job approval rating now.. lol...

My own internal polling says the President may be down, BUT he's not out.

Now I'm off to check out some more poles.

He just hasn't given enough speeches.  He needs to say something deep and meaningful like - We are the ones we've been waiting for.

You know - something to get Chris Mathews' leg tingling.

Oh.  And speaking of Chris Mathews... haven't heard anything from syphilitic Keith Olberbatshitcrazy.  Someone shut him up?

This is hopeful.  Man I hope he's right:

Yeah, trust me, Mr. College Professor (barely an adjunct) would have leaked them if they were good.  I think one of the reasons so few people remember him from Columbia and nobody remembers him from class is that he "took" lots of independent study classes from Marxist professors who all gave him A's.

I am quite sure he did horribly enough at Oxy (where those special arrangements are rarer) not to justify his transfer to Columbia, but he had an "in".  He's always had an "in".

But I think the real reason he won't release them isn't that he took wussy courses or did poorly in all of the real courses, but that the titles of most of his courses would reveal, in headline-friendly soundbites, exactly how much of a Communist he really is.

Cheese and fucking rice...MSNBC is such a goddamned fucking propaganda arm for the Jackassocrats..

...they just had an "an exclusive, breaking news" interview with some douchebag from NY named Elliot Engel who came on to announce that he was going to switch from undecided to yes..

I..From what i have seen...his yes vote was never in question

Expect a bunch more of this bullshit in the next couple days

Obama to Dems, "Our fates are tied to healthcare.  If we don't pass it we'll die... or something."

What in Satan's Unholy name is a 'caveman conservative'? Someone who likes William F Buckley and rock music?

69 For those of us who fought and bled on the battlefield for America, passing this health care bill in support of Obama's Marxist utopia is a slap in the face for every veteran who believes in Duty, Honor, and Country.  Fuck Obama and the other progressives who hate America. 

Got that right!

I don't think Obama was a professor--I think he was a lecturer---big surprise there---and didn't have students as much as he just talked and talked and talked and talked--explaining how we MUST redistribute the wealth. You wanna bet that his "constitutional" classes were all about how it is a negative list and what we really need is a positive list of rights?

 Heh, Laura Ingraham is playing clips of Chris Mathews complaining that Brett Baier wouldn't let Obama finish a sentence.Apparently self awareness is not one of Chrissy's merits

I think Chris Matthew's only "merit" is that at least he's not Keith Olbermann.

Well, at least he didn't dork the bitch for her vote, and that's a plus in Obama's world.

45  Probably so; I'm getting strong hunch that those classes were fluff classes too -- it isn't rocket science to get an A in third world societies as feminist counter-discourse; the class description pretty much outlines what sort of things you need to say for a good grade.

But, but, but...the news said today that Israelis view him favorably and Bibi not so much!!!  (I notice however, that they did not give exact numbers for those polls)  Can't wait to see what his approval ratings are in another 6 months (literally, because I'm not sure the schadenfruede is worth the personal suffering).

Oh well, I hope the country can muddle through this walking, talking disaster...and the people learn a big lesson out of it (still trying to stay pessimistically optimistic).

WSJ: In a carom shot if there ever was one, the excise tax on gold-plated health coverage has received one last tweak. It is expected to fund ObamaCare as employees take more of their compensation in wages rather than health insurance, thus exposing more income to ordinary taxes. The House demand to delay that tax until 2018 from 2013 in the Senate bill—to appease the likes of AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka, who met one-on-one with Mr. Obama on Wednesday—therefore reduces Social Security payroll tax revenues. But reconciliation expressly forbids such changes to Social Security, and CBO says this change will drain some $53 billion from the program's trust fund.

Senate Republicans will therefore be entitled to raise a budget "point of order" against the entire reconciliation bill if it does arrive in the upper chamber. That will let them strip out the offending provision—which will offend the labor movement, to say the least—or even send the entire bill back to the House, forcing another round of agony on the gullible rank-and-file.

CAVEman conervative.  Complain About Virtually Everything.

You mean the 'teach the GOP a lesson' folks from 2006? 

I think Chris Matthew's only "merit" is that at least he's not Keith Olbermann.

Since they both finish behind Guy Fieri, Bobby Flay and whatever is on Cartoon Network, let's point out that MSNBC gets its ass kicked by burgers and cartoons as often as possible.

No, I don't miss Bush yet, and never will.  His complete inability to use the bully pulpit for 8 years was one of the keys (if not the greatest single factor) in creating this entire mess, along with his "compassionate" conservatism (whatever that was...)

But, but, but...the news said today that Israelis view him favorably and Bibi not so much!!!  (I notice however, that they did not give exact numbers for those polls)  Can't wait to see what his approval ratings are in another 6 months (literally, because I'm not sure the schadenfruede is worth the personal suffering

Sorry to get you to suffering, Jane...but Barky has a 6% approval in Israel

I've been thinking about every soldier who fought and died for this country; for our constitution. With the stroke of a fucking pen, President Traitor wants to flush it all down the drain. Every cretin that votes yes... for what, a cushy job, worthless pennies for a single state... will be murderers. They should all be hung for treason or die by the point of a bayonet. I don't have words for the horrendous nature of it all.

103 If you don't look back on Bush as an extraordinary net improvement over what we've got now then you're totally fucking hopeless.

Jimmah Carter would be an improvement over what we have now.

We sat on our hands while the Communists took all of the institutions.  We were too goddamned polite and too afraid to be called McCarthyists.  We got rolled because they've been playing hardball since the early 1900's and we've been simply trying to get along.

I live in Geezerville, Florida, and the number of white hairs awakening to the impending disaster is increasing exponentially.  Many realize the party's over, and their concern and worry mirrors your anxiety. 

Retirement is supposed to be a time of joy and reflection, but for many has become an agonizing exercise in realizing they will outlive their money, and what little is left will be consumed by an ever encroaching government.  All geezers are useless to the Marxist dream of Utopia, and dying is the supreme sacrifice for the greater good. 

This is Obama and the progressives dream, but to enjoy this panacea, they must walk over our dead bodies and we have something to say about that process.  Many of us still remember "thrust and parry, low crawl, garrote techniques, night infiltration, and other warrior disciplines." 

Obama and his minions can fuck with us at his peril.

91  Oh, I meant it sarcastically -- believe me, that doesn't make me suffer.  In fact, I could care less what his approval rating is in another country, positive or negative, here is where it counts.  I just found the news article funny -- wonder why they felt the need to write it?  I feel that they insist too much -- in which I find a certain dark humor.

I flatly disagree that I had anything to do with that!

And did I mention I'm really popular with the Sycacuse University students?

#103,

And what exactly does that have to do w/what I said?

Look - every sunrise, President Obama, every 1st term Democrat Senator & Congressman, every 1st term Democrat Governor & local Representative should bow thrice to the man who single handedly raised their profiles as candidates, confused the electorate, and put them in office - George W. Bush. 

And did I mention I'm really popular with the Sycacuse University students?

Oops I guess I wee weed up the spelling but you people have really high expectations. You can't expect  a Harvard grad community organizer genius like me to be able to concentrate on my spelling while I'm filling out my brackets. BTW all you evil Fox reporters don't bother asking me how to spell potatoe  potato - I know how to spell potatoe potato.
