1 Blue on Blue.

2 Ummm..  DUH!

3 Most of the folks that voted for him had unrealistic expectations.   Obama's biggest problem is that he needs more intelligent followers.

4 I just listened to the White house press briefing, Gibbs did everything possible to not use the word Obama. He said "He", and the "President" but I did not hear the word Obama.
HMMMMMMM

5 Lets Roll

6 WTF? Mort Zuckerman wrote this? Mort Zuckerman? In related news, cats are having sex with dogs and Hell is experiencing a bitter cold snap with hoarfrost expected overnight.

7 How could he improve our image in the world while making us look weak and concerning our allies at the same time? Little bit of desperation for one positive thing about him?

8

et tu Morté?

9 wow..

Chip.. "Some might say the prez is in denial"

10 Gee, It's like Obama didn't have any experience or something. All these assholes who said, "He's the one" and didn't look under the wrapping have no place to cry now. Shut up you stupid losers. Maybe you could still look at this guy in the daylight and take him down a notch. Tempering that arrogance might help your party.

11 He’s improved America’s image in the world. He absolutely did. But you have to translate that into something. Let me tell you what a major leader said to me recently. “We are convinced,” he said, “that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned,” he said “that he is not strong to support his friends.”

WTF is Mort talking about?  How good is your fucking "image" if you can't destroy your enemies and help your buds?  Mort needs to stop hanging out with that senile cocksucker John McLaughlin.

12 I will repeat a past theme.  I really don't care what someone has to say if they voted for this fool in the first place.  Not a single thing has happened in the last year that was not adequately telegraphed during the campaing.  Mort Z. is a jackass, and I am glad he is unhappy.

13

Amazing to see it said so clearly. Obama's hair is going to become a lot whiter during the next few months.

I have read him being pilloried all over, in the leftist blogs, today. They feel betrayed.

14 Mort Zuckerman is a racist.

Yes, but does he like puddin'?

15 Oh, Mort... by the way? The biggest fool you around you is the one you see in the mirror.

16 It doesn't give me as much pleasure to say this as it should, but WE TOLD YOU SO when this empty suit with a teleprompter was a candidate in an empty suit with a teleprompter. 

17 This hand-wringing on the left will go on and on.  They'll stab each other in the back and in the end will still have no clue what went wrong.  It's fun to watch.

18

Mort Zuckerman, Peggy Noonan, Chris Buckley and David Frum have proved themselves to be feckless dupes.  They should be on the mailing list for every Nigerian banking scam and network marketing ripoff.

19 "HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did." I can't understand why people continue to say this. It's ridiculous.

20 Do these people not get that their policies, (huge deficits for social spending, high taxes, anti-business regulation) hurt the economy. So if this idiot really thinks that the Dems failed by not focusing on the economy he is retarded.

21

Stupid jackass.  He thinks Obama has improved our image in the world?  Anyone with a brain knows Obama has made us a laughing-stock in the world, which will have the real effect of causing the deaths of millions over the next decade.  When America is seen as weak and "nice", the world suffers.  When we're seen as strong, and, yes, let's say it, "mean", the world is a much safer place.

Mort, you voted for this empty vessel because you're a fucking fantasist, who believes that fairy tale solutions are possible in politics and foreign policy.  We are Morons, but we could see through Obama before he was elected.

Now shut the fuck up and sit down.  You're lost your speaking privileges.

22

OOOOOhhhhh. He's the one. He is the messiah. He is historic. He is sooooo cool. He is soooo smart. What an incredible temperment. What a nice pants crease. How elegant. The world will love us. He has traveled and knows about the world. Excuse me while I faint. Get out those greek columns. A rising son. His own logo. Post partisan, post racial, post corruption. Hopenchange.

Damn. Did you get that wrong?

23

OT morons but old guy needs help (senility sets in).

Quick look at my tax return this year shows me getting back $400 less than last year.  Isn't this the "supposed" tax break promised by obambi that we all knew would bite us on the backside this year.  We got the check late last spring or early summer?  Trying to put a fellow worker on some knowledge but, as I said, the mind is the first thing to go.  Thanks

We now return you to your regularly scheduled hangover.

24 Mort, your tears are delicious, though far too costly to the country.

25 In related news, cats are having sex with dogs and Hell is experiencing a bitter cold snap with hoarfrost expected overnight.

Is Al Gore giving a speech at the Hades Hilton?

26 Zuckerman is a fucking fool!  Talk about your 'buyer's remorse'.  HEY DICKHEAD!  What you see in Barry is what you get.  NOTHING!  He's an idiot!  He's not going to CHANGE.  He was raised a socialist and that's all he knows.  Better luck on your next pick, shithead!

27 As someone else here said:  Man we sure dodged a bullet on that Palin thing didn't we.

I have my doubts that Palin would be a particularly good president, but an actualy Flounder would be floundering like this guy.  I think you could hit palin in the head with a balpin hammer about fifty times and she could still probably govern better than Hussein Obama.

Man, I sure wish we could trade up for Jimmy Carter at this point...

28 "I" before "E" except after "C".

29 Amazing to see it said so clearly. Obama's hair is going to become a lot whiter during the next few months.

Hey Barak.  We got something that "Just For Men" (if you know what I mean).

30 As I've said all along, Zuckerman is acting stupidly.

you forgot "pigs were seen flying"

32 "HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did." Like when he embarrassed the Japanese Emperor by fouling protocol, or when he sent a cheap set of incompatible DVDs to the Brits. But I'm sure the Saudi royals think he's dandy, bowing and scraping and ready to shine their shoes. So Mort Zuckerman thinks polishing a Saudi apple is good for our image. There are some kinds of stupid that defy explanation. And then there's... David Frum.

33 One Mort notwithstanding, The Chosen Tribe will not part from The Magic Barack. Oy vey!

35 Note to Mort. Heh. And I quote myself: Heh.

36 "HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did." Tell that to the Poles and Czechs you dumbfuck.

37

...insert popcorn munching noise here....

burrrrrp

38  
I expect all the news reports about the civil war within the Democrat Party to start any time now.

39

let's not get too wee-wee'd up over this, now.

 

40 I guess that Lightworker shit is casting a long shadow now, eh Newsweak?

41 Oh, Mort... by the way?

The biggest fool you around you is the one you see in the mirror.

How does that saying go?  If you can't find the sucker at the table, then the sucker is you.

Or something

42 Ha Ha.  The lamentations of the women are great today.  You're going to make me break the dipping cup back out.

43 "Man, I sure wish we could trade up for Jimmy Carter at this point..." Yeah, like I said when the Brown returns were coming in last night: I'm about to become the second-worst President in history!

44 His supporters really did think he was a 'Magic Negro,'somehow mystically possessed of magical powers.  It was a manifestation of the Left's own racism that made them view an undistinguished, incapable empty suit as something that would magically fulfill their dreams for them, rather than as a human being.

45 It's like I was in the Special Olympics or something.

46 Actually Mort's regret should make us pause for a moment. If Obama had been the triangulating Clinton clone, we'd really be hosed for 8 years. At least with a raging socialist at the helm it's easier to foil him.

47 Gibbs just pulled the Bush Anger Card for last night

???????????????????????

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

48 LOL- Harry Reid just said the Senate won't wait til Scott Brown is seated to vote on Healthcare. Do it Harry- your instincts never fail you.

49 "HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did." How can this be? We're still fighting two wars and Gitmo is still open. You know, things that you once claimed "destroyed" our image when Bush was in charge.

50

Rush is playing some other chick who is saying that she always saw him as inexperienced and professorial and that the messiah thing was overplayed. There was no way he could live up to those expectations.

You thought that then while you were fellating his mere image, right. I'll make a note now since you didn't say that then.

51 Zero is human alright. That's his single qualification for leadership. That, and the ability to fool the stupid.

52 <i>...reeks of first-draft anger</i>

Maybe <i>"incandescent with"</i> or <i>"overflowing with"</i>.  "reeks" is such a loaded term.

And <i>"first-draft"</i>s are usually the most honest, while the writer has their Irish up and their guardrails down.   Let us treasure this first-draft, the profound disillusionment of the true-believer who crafted it, and the implications therein where we see the President losing his Fourth-Estate base.

The Chattering Classes on the coasts are starting to learn that it is they, and not Flyover Country, who are the rubes.  And they're angry not just at being fooled, but at being exposed as fools for all to see.

Can't wait for Oprah's first draft....furious

53 #48 Don't forget it was a liberal writing in the LA Times who coined the "magic negro" phrase. It's like leftards know they are pounding crack, they know it's killing them, and they keep on pounding the crack anyway.

54 Welcome Mort to the ranks of the of bigoted, racist, homophobe teabaggers

55 All these crybabies are forgetting how HISTORIC and unprecedented his election was.

56 We warned you, we warned you, we warned you, we warned you.  Glad you've come around, but how about you listen to us next time?

57

Mort Zuckerman is a racist.

If this idiot voted for Obama thinking he was getting anything other than an America hating commie asshole then he is even dumber than I think he is.

Or perhaps he is just lying now trying to protect his own interests as the Democrap Party falls down around his ears due to pushing the heat up on the commie pot to far at once.

The frogs finally noticed the water was boiling.

 

58 I'm not pulling a Charlie Gibson but "Five states got deals on health care—one of them was Harry Reid’s." umm, Deal for Nevada....Never heard of it.


I live here in Nevada and that is the first I have heard of.

59 The Precedent likes what happened in Massachusetts. It just makes it easier for him to sow chaos in our nation. He also appreciates that he managed to suck more dignity and integrity out of the Oval Office with his participation and (as usual) amazing failure.

The Precedent is just going to try to twist Dem arms harder, and if they resist, they will find themselves the targets of calls of 'racist', ...

People need to understand full well that The Precedent never wanted to be a good anything. He's only here to destroy. He doesn't care about anything else. And the useful idiots in the Washington junta have already sold their souls to him with their earlier, unforgivable votes for the most un-American insane legislation to ever bounce through Capitol Hill.

60 Oh, I am angry at Bush alright.  It cannot be denied that his financial screw-ups and fecklessness late in the Iraq war, and his allowing the media to control the narrative in the first place is what befuddled enough cretins to put Obama in office in the first place.  There are plenty of reasons to be mad at Bush.  That need not confuse one about the utter emptiness of Obama's resume and Character.

You could refer to Obama as a Hollow man, but you would be wrong.  Dude has a fuckload of bulking up to do before he can even think about being merely hollow.

God....

61 Somehow, 'I told you so' just doesn't quite say it. I agree with Uncle Ace, the letter is very emotional as that written by a scorned lover. Now ladies and gents, we'll be seeing a whole lot more of this in the coming days. DO NOT GLOAT! Sympathize, help them verbalize their feelings of betrayal by LEFTISM personified in Bambi and help them to cement the understanding of why it happened. I am serious. Potentially, for the first time in their lives, they see glimpses of light. Your scorn is likely going to push them further left. Help them instead! Would you gloat at a drug addict who woke up one day to realize how much his life has been messed up by drugs? Of course no. You will help! And this is not that much different.

62

Hey guys I thought if someone said no, but their eyes said yes, then it was OK?

So that's where I went wrong.

63 The bumber sticker "SORRY yet?" with the Obamessiah logo for the O is becoming more and more prescient day by day, even to the left.

This train crash couldn't come soon enough.  I hope he and congress are gridlocked asap before they can cause further damage to our freedoms.

64 Obviously Mort has had some medical problems and has now jogged straight down the road of insanity.

65

He's improved America's image in the world.

Right.  By making it another mediocre failing statist state among a plethora of failing statist states. 

Yea!  We're number twelve! We're number twelve!  (Come on everyone!) We're number twelve!

66 Our elites voted with their heart and their guilt, not their heads. The people who were paying attention saw this coming a mile away but everybody else wanted to have the thrill of moral superiority that they got from voting for the first black president. Hope it was good for you, folks, because now you've woken up and found yourself next to the fat chick rather than the knockout you saw through the electoral beer goggles last night.

67 Rush just played Owe-bama saying, "The same thing that swept me into office swept Scott Brown into office."

O'Narcissist.

68 We fcuk me harder. Rush just played what Jake Tapper tweeted. Barry actually thinks what swept Brown into office was what swept His Oneness into office. Axelrod better get a shrink on the phone.

69 Jesus, looks whatÂ’s happening in Massachusetts.

I heard "Jesus, looks whatÂ’s happening in Massachusetts, Boy"

70 You know what?  I am a grandma in the Midwest.  I don't have powerful friends,  I don't have access to inside information,  and I don't have analysts and reporters to check things out. 

Just me and my computer and listening to radio and watching Fox, that's all I have to gather information.

And yet I knew this would be EXACTLY what we got with Obama.  How come I knew this and Mr. Big Shot Zuckerman didn't?

Pffft.

71

There was enough information about Obama's ideology last year that anyone with any common sense should have run away. His 20 years of attendance at Jeremiah Wright's church should have been the last straw. To put it another way, when you happen to find roofies, handcuffs, and a camera in the backseat of your date's car, you might want to reconsider your evening plans.

Sorry Mort, but that butthurt you're feeling is your own fault.

72 He’s misjudged the character of the country in his whole approach. There’s the saying, “It’s the economy, stupid.” He didn’t get it. Obama also forgot that he got a bit lucky. The economy started to seriously tank a few months out from the election. A bad economy ALWAYS hurts the incumbent party. I'm not saying this is the only thing that got him elected. But it contributed significantly. Other items that helped get Obama elected: 1) The completely favorable/biased media coverage. 2) Since McCain was not that popular & the party was no long very conservative, Obama's opponent lacked grass roots support. It wasn't Obama's dreamy abs & rhetorical flourish. But that's the message the Dems got. Now they must embrace "teh suck". You liefail.

73 The State of The Union address should be a hoot. Bring a shovel, and hip waders. Botox will repeatedly pop up like a jack in the box to applaud like Zero is the 2nd coming. Take anti nausea pills.

74 RobD? Never Heard of him.

75 Miss Marple,

God bless you

76

Of course Mort Zuckerman is a racist - he's a noted Jew, just like that teabagger Eric Cantor.

77 O'Narcissist.

He's completely incapable of thinking about anything other than himself and how things relate to him.

78 This is absolutely finger lickin' fuckin' good. The Libs get their Messiah President, they get a howling Leftist in the Speaker's chair, they even get the holy grail of a filibuster-proof Senate. And what do they do? They fucking blow it by overreaching. It's like a case study in how to squander an opportunity.
Alinsky would be sending them all to detention.

79
Gibbs is right, Massachusetts always elects Republicans to the Senate when they're angry at a Republican President who retired a year ago.

80 They're going to revoke Mort's Educated Class Gold Card.

Not if the addict had just broken into my house the night before and tried to kidnap my daughter and rape my dog. There is no forgiving the useful idiots for the great devastation they have invited upon us. They are responsible for the coming death of the US (as the monetary catastrophe will not be stopped and that will do us in).

The leftists and imbeciles who voted for the ineligible America-hater from Indonesia can never do enough to atone for the great sin they have committed against us and against mankind, in trying to kill the US - which is EXACTLY what they voted for on Nov4th, 2008.

83 Yes the state of the union address might be good if you can stomach it, but I personally would rather go deaf than ever have to listen to his stammering and droning and folksy colloquialisms ever again.  His speaking style goes directly to whatever instinct it is in one that  make one want to jump off a building and to do so into the path of an on coming bus just to be sure...

85 He’s misjudged the character of the country in his whole approach. There’s the saying, “It’s the economy, stupid.” He didn’t get it.

No ... Mort doesn't get it. He still doesn't get it. The Precedent never cared about doing anything for the benefit of the US. Just the opposite.

86 ok - if I say Hey Mort, "Welcome to the party pal",  then could someone straighten me out on what happened with the tax stuff?

87 86  +1!

88 At this point, I don't think Barry will even be the nominee in 2012.

How will their black base view THAT?

Wow. Scott Brown's election was the culmination of the Civil Rights Movement? Not bad for a white dude in a pickup.

93 progressoverpeace,

I understand your point, but I am not calling for "why can't we all get along kumbayya". We obviously should use our brains when reaching out, not just emotions. Some are unfortunately too gone, but there is a good number that are worth fighting for.

94 teej,

There wasn't a tax cut at all.  All they did is not take as much out of your withholding.  Now when your taxc bill is due in April,  you still owe the same amount as you would have last year;  but you haven't had as much withheld, so you will have to pay more to the government. (Or you won't get as much back,  if you routinely overpay.)  Did that explain it so your friend can understand?

95
 Shep Smith says the President heard your message loud and clear.
 Yeah well not according to what Gibbs said.

96 At this point, I don't think Barry will even be the nominee in 2012.

Oh, you know Hillary already has the campaign apparatus in motion. 

97 Welcome to the club Mort.

98 He’s improved America’s image in the world. He absolutely did. But you have to translate that into something. Let me tell you what a major leader said to me recently. “We are convinced,” he said, “that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned,” he said “that he is not strong to support his friends.”

Yeah, sure thing, Mort.  He's "improved" America's image in the world so much that none of our allies can rely on us anymore and none of our enemies fear doing or saying anything contradicting or threatening us, our allies, or our interests (e.g., Russia, Venezuela, Iran, etc.).

For example, the freakin' French just accused us of occupying Haiti, Sarkozy has personal mocked Obama for his stupidity on nuclear weapons, the UK's Gordon Brown had to put a happy face on Obama's gift of chintzy DVDs that don't work on DVD players in Europe, Obama couldn't close the sale on having the Olympics in Chicago, he failed with his global warming agenda at Copenhagen, and the entire world had to watch him bow to various foreign royalty in Saudi Arabia and Japan and smile lovingly while shaking hands with Hugo Chavez.  And that's just a partial list for Obama's first year in office.  If any of that has "improved" our image -- unless one's definition of "improved" involves us looking weak and disorganized -- please describe what is considered "harming" our image in the world.

This clown Obama is in way over his head and still doesn't realize it because he's surrounded himself with a bunch of lackeys and butt-kissers.  Also, if I have to hear another comment about his "towering intellect," I'm going to vomit.  The guy isn't an idiot but "towering intellect"?  Puh-lease.  The Left, including the media, has tried way too hard to make him the anti-Bush by doing their best to convince everyone that Bush is an idiot (as they've done with the President or VP in every Republican administration since Ford) then using that false premise to position the Democrat candidates (e.g., Obama, Clinton, Kerry, Gore, etc.) as intelligent.  It's aggravating.

99

So wait, the message is that overconfidence, testing the bounds of loyalty you have with your underlings, and a blind belief that a pitiful band of rebels has no chance of deactivating a defensive shield can lead to a defeat of epic proportions?

Nah no way. Full steam ahead baby I am flying to my fully operational "Death Star", aka Health Care.

100 Thanks MM - Hey, MM,  Miss Marple,  Michelle Malkin,  You be in pretty good company lady.

101 And here I thought he was going to make my car payment and pay my rent.

102 #89 Thank you...we need to club DemocRATick ideas like a cute furry baby seal.

103 The only similarity between Nov. '08 and yesterday was that voters were angry and frustrated, and that Democrats controlled both houses of congress at the time.

Obama is therefore partly right, but for very wrong reasons. 

104 Just had on Fox News and there was Shepard Smith with the statement "He didn't even really run as a Republican."

105 This is one of my many pet peeves about Obama, well-said in a great column by VDH on NRO:

No one likes a serial whiner. It has been a year now — and Obama still blames George W. Bush ad nauseam. He did it in Massachusetts again — and on the eve of the election, no less. Blaming the past for the mistakes of the present gets old quickly. And when one adds in the constant What’s the Matter With Kansas? brand of condescension about naïve yokels not knowing what’s good for them, it gets even worse.

106 I understand your point, but I am not calling for "why can't we all get along kumbayya". We obviously should use our brains when reaching out, not just emotions. Some are unfortunately too gone, but there is a good number that are worth fighting for.

Posted by: Son of Liberty at January 20, 2010 03:01 PM (gtZwa)

I hear you. My problem is that people like Zuckerman still don't understand what they've done and they still don't understand what the real motivations of The Precedent are (just to destroy our nation). Until they can, at least, come to view that is somewhat consistent with reality I can't think of any quarter for them. I'd continue to pound people like Zuckerman until they can admit that they voted for someone whose intentions were nothing but destructive and whose candidacy never should have been given more than a tenth of a second of consideration.

For those who have truly come around to realize what they did, I might grant them some slack, but imbeciles like Zuckerman, still claiming that The Precedent wants to do something for the benefit of America, I have no patience and even less tolerance.

107 You are welcome,  teej!  Be sure that you talk about that tax scam with every person you know!  You can tell them as a warning:  "Hey,  guys, guess what I found out! We didn't really get a tax cut!"

This is something that is going to piss off a lot of people,  and it should all be layed at the feet of the Lightworker,  who went around the country talking about tax CUTS, not temporary loans from our withholding.

I figure it's going to drive his poll numbers even lower.

108 "HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did." Oh,yeah. He's really nailed down Andorra's vote in the UN...

109 112 Just had on Fox News and there was Shepard Smith with the statement "He didn't even really run as a Republican."

Posted by: buzzion at January 20, 2010 03:05 PM (oVQFe)

Brown ran more like a Republican than Obama ran as a Socialist in 2008.  Think of all the people that voted for Obama who thought he was a moderate based on nothing but wishful thinking.

110 buzzion:  Shep Smith is an idiot.   What part of Brown's being a Republican state senator,  called a Republican about eleventy-jillion times by Marta's ads, and campaigning with Rudy Guiliani and William Weld did Shep miss?   He was the Republican on the ballot,  everyone KNEW he was a Republican, for goodness sake!

Now, I will grant you that Brown played down his hobo-hunting skills,  but that doesn't mean that he wasn't running as a Republican!

111 "Obama also forgot that he got a bit lucky. The economy started to seriously tank a few months out from the election. A bad economy ALWAYS hurts the incumbent party. " That wasn't luck. That was the culmination of a deliberate campaign by the Democratic Party, led by Chris Dodd and Barney Frank. Or do we believe Democrats are so freaking stoopid they thought giving poor people mortgages they could never pay back was going to be good for the banks.

112 This is something that is going to piss off a lot of people,  and it should all be layed at the feet of the Lightworker,  who went around the country talking about tax CUTS, not temporary loans from our withholding.

This is what happens when a cipher with no record to speak of runs a campaign short on details and long on hopey-changey centrist-pragmatist tropes.  People who voted for him are waking up and saying: WTF?  This is NOT the hope and change I voted for.

113 progressoverpeace,
Agreed, but I still bet there is a possibility to help some come around to realize what they did through this grief counseling. At least I'll be attempting it.

114 Obama's approach to politics is like Shatner's approach to movie making:  Every idea it utterly fantastic, unprecidented, never even dreampt of before.  Practicality is an also ran.

115 Its funny that the people who viewed all criticism of Obama as overt displays of racism are waking up to the fact that maybe Obama isn't the untouchable deity they thought he was.

116 Who's your pick for the "major leader" who told Zuckerman “We are convinced that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned that he is not strong to support his friends.”?

I vote someone from India or Israel.

117 Be ready to jump on Garofolo when she decides Obama isn't all that.  Because, you know, that would be conclusive evidence of racism.

118 Where's your Messiah now?

Where's your Messiah now, see?

Good luck with that.  Lived in CA for 18-plus years, had many lib friends and acquaintances and 99.9 percent of them are of the eeevillll (!!11!)  conservatives versus liberal democrats as the saviors of the entire world meme.  It's like it's in their DNA or something. 

120 Be ready to jump on Garofolo when she decides Obama isn't all that

Sorry, I want to remain as far away from Garofolo as possible, thank you.  Besides being an ugly, insufferable tool, I just know she smells like week-old bluefish.

121 My real problem with people like Zuckerman is that they still say things like what a great politician he is, and how inspiring his speeches are, and what a great campaign he ran.  None of these things are true.  It was an awful campaign and only the complicity of the press kept him from being shunned by anyone other than the radicals like him. 

Zuckerman and his ilk are no smarter, no more perspicacious, than they were before.  They are still fools and they are likely to snuggle back up the the bastard should he decide to defensively move to the center for a bit.

A useful idiot may stop being useful, but he never stops being an idiot.

122 I'm reminded of the line in the Jackson Browne song "Fountain of Sorrow-"
"WHEN YOU SEE THROUGH LOVE'S ILLUSIONS THERE LIES THE DANGER,  WHEN YOUR PERFECT LOVER JUST LOOKS LIKE A PERFECT FOOL"
Perfect "tool" rhymes also.
JACKSON BROWNE/SINGER/SONGWRITER/ACTIVIST/RACIST

Besides being an ugly, insufferable tool, I just know she smells like week-old bluefish.

Old cigarettes and dirty feet.

124

A useful idiot may stop being useful, but he never stops being an idiot.

Nice.

125

The same thing that swept me into office swept Scott Brown into office."

That doesn't even make sense.

It makes perfect sense in the land of skittle crapping unicorns.

#106 Oh yeah... the DVD's heh heh heh

...insert popcorn munching noise here....

127 Hey! Remember The Kenyan Ass sent the Churchhill bust back to England? He probably doesn't realize that Churchill saved The West from the Nazis...who would have gassed Africa in due time after they got done enslaving us to their Socialist paradise.

128 Rush just played Owe-bama saying, "The same thing that swept me into office swept Scott Brown into office." O'Narcissist. Hmmm, Obama was swept into office on voters' rejection of Obama's health care policy and weak-kneed policies on terrorists? I guess I missed that news flash last year.

@19: "'HeÂ’s improved AmericaÂ’s image in the world. He absolutely did.' I can't understand why people continue to say this. It's ridiculous."

They say it because from their point of view, he did.  They couldn't stand having the face of America being some dipshit from Texas.  They love having The Messiah as the face of America; therefore, he improved America's image.

130 If  Zuckerman is honest (ha!), where the hell was he with this assessment before yesterday's election?

"The Democrats are going to get killed in this election. Jesus, looks whatÂ’s happening in Massachusetts."

Would he be writing this today if Coakley had won?

131

Tommorow his tears will dry, and he will be the same person he was yesterday.  Leftists are machochistic when it comes to blind naive let-down.

Fortunately for the country, his let-down is Obama, and not the inevitable disaster of HCR.

132 Sure, Obama improved our image in the world.

If on the one hand, the world looks at you like you're a giant cop who doesn't care so much what the world thinks, and on the other, the world looks at you like a hooker who's not sure she should charge because she loves her job so much, it's not difficult to imagine which one the world wants around.

You improve somebody's image of you by being the thing they want, not the thing they need.

Not only did Tina Brown throw Teh Precedent under the bus today, but Warren Buffet is questioning him taxing the financial institutions that paid back their TARP to bail out GM, Fanny and Freddie.  It sounds like Warren isn't drinking the Kool-Aid any more.  The fissures are appearing, I can't wait til the dam breaks and the Tsunami of anger from our betters, "The Educated Class" drowns Obama.  I so hope it happens--it's only been a year, and people are pissed.  We still have 3 more years of this crap.  I want all those jerks in the MSM, academia, Hollywood, etc. to be forced to eat the crap sandwich they foisted on us.  It will be particularly enthralling to watch Oprah choke hers down.

135 125 Who's your pick for the "major leader" who told Zuckerman “We are convinced that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned that he is not strong to support his friends.”?

I vote someone from India or Israel.

 

Ooh, Israel is a great guess, but I'm going with Sarkozy who cannot hide his contempt for our man child Precedent.  Remember when the media use to swoon over whatever the French said or thought (when they were obstructing or bashing Bush). 

136 Oh but does'nt Michelle have nice arms!! This looks so good on Obama and the big charade. 

137 On the Won Year anniversary, many leftists now learn what is best in life.

This is a sloppily-written piece

I was thinking the same thing. 3rd rate piece all the way.

139

Alinsky would be sending them all to detention.

Alinksy didn't know how to build. Only how to destroy.

140 Zuckerman's on Cavuto's Fox News show now and he's plenty angry!

141 Best part, as some have aready pointed out: who are the rubes now? It's gonna be a lot of fun 'helping' some people come to grips with the fact that they got played by the Soul-Music Man.

142

Was looking at the column in Daily Beast written by Larry Flynt one comment gave me a pretty good laugh.

   " If Obama has lost Larry Flynt, he's lost the ability to pleasure himself"

143 Zuckerman's on Cavuto's Fox News show now and he's plenty angry!

That was pretty funny. Neil was very nice to him. I liked that Neil said that we all knew that the Indonesian imbecile was going to do these things, though he let Mort slink away from that. I guess "spread the wealth" wasn't clear enough for the edumacated class.

But I liked Mort's energy.

144

Captain Hate and Sharkman and probably others above have pointed this out from the article but it bears repeating:

"He’s improved America’s image in the world. He absolutely did. But you have to translate that into something. Let me tell you what a major leader said to me recently. “We are convinced,” he said, “that he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned,” he said “that he is not strong to support his friends.”

The political leadership of the world is very, very dismayed. He better turn it around."

Read the above and see the obvious conflict. According to Z, the only good thing Obama has done is something he actually hasn't done (at least with world leaders). Ah, the pretzel logic of liberals. 

145 This may not have been the first draft.  The first draft may have a string of cuss words.

146 I sympathize with Zuckerman.  Its very hard to publicly admit that your judgment is so incredibly poor you were easily duped by a con artist.

I bet I could sell Mort aluminum siding for his brownstone.

147 This post needs a link on Facebook where millions could read it.

Regarding the headline:

(sorry, couldn't help myself)

149 So when will Dem candidates for the Senate or Congress start quietly asking the One to stay the hell away from their campaigns?

150 yes,you are all right. chi hair iron are precious possession for not only women but men also. you may have a try make everyone in your family fashionable.
