"Welcome to the party, pal."

2 Opinion leader? Obama?

The only thing that useless shitbrick leads is the charge to the 1st hole.

3 Rush made that same point yesterday.

4 It's not just setting the record straight. It's adopting the correct policy for the future. However, with the Left it is always Year Zero when they begin rule. Never having to say you're sorry, and so forth.

5 Did I say those Bush policies were wrong?

My bad.

6 Scarborough is David Brooks without the veneer of fake sophistication.

7 Odds on Scarborough forgetting about this in a week?

8 Some are, but some are breaking from the lemming pack/herd/group/band as it rushes towards the cliff.

9

"Opinion leader"? 

Meinung Fuhrer!

If by lead you mean immediately suspect is shallow and wrong, why yes, I do care what mainstream media partisan jackasses think. 

10

Well, maybe not that exact same point. What he said was "Obama said Bush was an idiot for his war policy, and now Obama is continuing Bush's idiotic policy. Either Obama's a bigger idiot for doing so, or someone owes Bush an apology."

Or words to that effect.

11

It's about partisanship bordering on sedition and shallow, callow thinking run riot through our supposed leadership.

Hey, did someone mention my name?

12 I just watched that portion of the show and my brain freaking hurts. Mika is seriously one stupid freaking bint. Granted, we're talking about Joe here, but he's spot on with his request and the panel could not see it.

13 should apologize for conning the public.

Maybe the public should apologize for allowing itself to be conned.  Stupid shits.

14 "I resign."
 
Apology accepted.

15 The left has been politicizing the war effort since September 12, 2001. It's amazing that it's taken nearly 10 years for anyone but conservatives to notice.

16 I shocked, shocked to find that Barry was lying.

17

Schadenboners.

Taking a perfect German word and perfecting it once more.

18 SOETORO 2012 - Only the name has changed

19 Apology? For what? Obama inherited this mess from eight years of Bush's failed policies. Bush made such a mess of everything that Obama has no choice in some cases other than continue Bush's failed policies.

20 Wake me up when Guantanamo is closed. . .

Really, is this Obama hypocrisy anything new? 

Of course not, its just that after two years some of the Hopium has worn off.

21

Ace said : It's not just setting the record straight. It's adopting the correct policy for the future

exactly, Political challengers shouldn't place politics above our country's security.

22 On average, the consistency of the current liberal body politics last as long as the next sentence they speak.

23 ya mean liberals are unscrupulous lying bastards who have the morals of a rapist? whoda thunk that?

24 En pointe! Pirouette!

25 n retrospect, it is painfully obvious that much of the anti-Bush rhetoric that helped propel Obama to the White House in 2008 was unwarranted, irresponsible, and transparently political. (Yes, itÂ’s water under the bridge, but setting the record straight on history is an important task for opinion leaders.)

In retroscpect???

26

I'd like to add, want to talk about putting our war efforts at risk and emboldening the enemy watch dems 2003 to 2009.

I'll never forget. ever.

27

The left has been politicizing the war effort since September 12, 2001.

Actually, they were all on board with the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq until we actually went in, then they figured out they could score some of that sweet Code Pink money and talking points in the next election cycle. Then they bent themselves into pretzels trying to deny that they were ever in favor of it.

Fucking hypocrites and typical lying leftists. I need a beer...

28 Yeah....whatever.

They voted for the polar opposite of Bush, and that's exactly what they got.  He presidents by hind-site.  He knows nothing, does what he wants, takes the temperature of the response, then acts accordingly.  It's much like a child.  Children are very experimental and when they fuck up, they usually learn and move forward.

Good to see we have a baby in the White House learning how to keep his fingers out of the wall outlet.....

29

Today, the president is being attacked as if he were a salesman who promised us that our problems would wash off in the morning. He never made such a promise. Its time for Americans to realize governing is hard work and that a president can't just wave a magic wand and fix everything.

30 #19

The "blame Bush" schtick is wearing a little thin at this juncture, pal.

But even stipulating for the sake of stupidity that its all Bush's fault, why is Obama not following up on his campaign promises to change things?

If Obama wasn't outright lying during his campaign about what he wanted to do, didn't he show a considerable lack of understanding of political reality to make a whole bunch of promises he couldn't keep?

31
Scarborough is somewhere between a RINO and a lesbian democrat, and if he thinks this is a 'come to Jesus' moment to resurrect his image, he should stick with what he knows best, sucking up to liberals. 

32 I think it's interesting to note Mika's position regarding GTMO and Obama. She asked Joe if he believed Obama would have opened up GTMO for use as a detention facility. Joe essentially agreeing with Mika stated he didn't think Obama would. My question, having spent some time at GTMO talking to those fucking knuckleheads; what exactly would President Obama have done in the exact situation.

33 ya mean liberals are unscrupulous lying bastards who have the morals of a rapist? You'll be hearing from Empire of Jeff's lawyers in the morning. Slander is serious business, pal.

34 History?  Never heard of it.

35 Not 'water under the bridge'. These attacks lead directly to the most destructive President and Congress this country has ever seen being put into power. On nothing but LIES.

Liberals are traitors and people that vote for them are just as bad.

>>Today, the president is being attacked as if he were a salesman who promised us that our problems would wash off in the morning.

Obama proved, quite early on, that he wasn't even qualified to choose a dog.

Related: Peter King (R-NY) addresses Eric Holder's comments yesterday:

“Maybe Eric Holder wants to live in a dictatorship, we don’t,” King said in an interview with Fox News. “If he feels so strongly about it [...] and this is such an issue of conscious for him, then Eric Holder should resign. If he feels this strongly he should resign on principle. It would do him good, it would certainly do us good. It would do the country good.”

You lost me at J. Couldn't care less.

40 Actually, they were all on board with the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq until we actually went in,

My point exactly. They were in support of it to look like hawks and show their toughness. The temporary pro-war stances were nothing but electioneering.

But in the meantime, he and the Democrats are gonna drag the Republicans through the mud. At the end, the Republicans will be smeared and Obama will appear to be a deficit hawk.

Is there anything left that Obama and the Left demonized Bush for, that Obama hasn't done himself, and then some? There must be sime small ones, but it seems like he's got the biggies covered:

1) Iraq - Violated campaign promise, coasting on what Bush did. Started his own little war without Congressional approval or even consultation.

2) Afghanistan - Copied Bush's "surge". Still a quagmire. OBL still on the loose.

3) Economy - Continued the Bush tax cuts that he claimed had caused the recession.

4) Torture - Continues "rendition" (although I guess waterboarding is out).

5) Transparency - Won't even so much as release his birth certificate.

6) Abu Graib - has an even worse scandal, that's also not the President's fault.

7) Gitmo - still open for business! Supposedly, though, if somebody there is acquitted, we'll keep 'em locked up anyway.

Deficits - tripled!

And that's without thinking too hard.

66 Making sense has nothing to do with it. Obama is *trying.* Or at least trying to try. That's what's important.

75 Isn't this the sam as asking for an apology from all the shitbag anti war fucks who suddenly after Jan 2009 have no problem with Iraq, Afganistan, and now bombing Libia?

76 OT:

Can someone in WI explain this last sentence to me please?

I know in Ohio you can register to vote and then vote early!  How does WI work?  Is WI the same?  If so, looks like the Dems are up to their old tricks:

The Wisconsin Supreme Court race between incumbent Justice David Prosser and Assistant Attorney General JoAnne Kloppenburg is expected to draw voters looking to use the election into a referendum on the polarizing union-rights law.

Richard Luetschwager, a retired union steelworker from Wausau, said he suspects a lot of people who are not typically interested in voting will head to the polls to make a statement about Gov. Scott Walker.

Luetschwager, 62, voted for Kloppenburg, not only for political reasons, but because he said Walker has no integrity in office and he worries anyone with similar political views may act the same way.

“I think it’s due time we all took special care (to vote) because I certainly don’t agree with what the governor did,” he said. “I think anyone who thinks like he does will rule like him.”

At The Rose Garden, voting site for District Nos. 10 and 11, chief inspector Sheryl Hemp said the site had about 210 voters a littler after 11 a.m. “It’s busier than in February,” she said.

She said there was about two to three times as many new registrants this morning compared to other elections.

77 Bush made such a mess of everything that Obama has no choice in some cases other than continue Bush's failed policies. This isn't a joke outside of blog snark. This is quite specifically what the libtards have used as an argument. The fact that it seduces some people argues that a Darwin Award is in order for homo sapiens.

78 A leopard doesn't change it's spots.  Scarborough is carrying the water for BO by getting out in front of this before the republicans do.  They feel they can minimize the impact if they just admit it and get you to move along.  Same with Trump, he's carrying the water on the birth certificate issue.  It's brilliant strategy.  Tie the republicans up with the government shutdown and new budget.  Do not work on teh budget since the republicans are doing all the work and finally make it so you can campaign and get all your "bad issues" out there before the republicans come out from under the budget.

You have to admit, it's brilliant.  Oh and send the subtly threatening message asking for donations, "are you in?"   so even if you aren't "in" you don't want anyone to know this so you give your donation.  The republicans aren't evil enough to see what's happening.

79

Let us not neglect to mention that - despite Obama's power to stop the oceans from rising - that he was not able to stop the earthquake in Japan, or the subsequent tsunami. Which we can only assume were both George W. Bush's fault.

So what good was elected this guy?...

80 Posted by: momma at April 05, 2011 03:54 PM (penCf)

And just think, after reading that, the left would have you believe that tightening voting laws is specifically to disenfranchise minorities.  Instead of, you know, making sure elections are carried out justly.

81

Hubby and I just watched this as we ate our lunch.  It was delicious.  Even though Joe is just an useful idiot.

Mika's non-verbals were yummy--the heavy sighing, adjusting herself in her chair, the scowls, frowns and furrowed brow--it was a tasty lunch.  Oh, and the sour looks on her and the bald libtard guy with the hipster douche glasses, made me want to get a lemonade.

 

82

And yes, he did say 'get a haircut'.

Oh, you can't cut this shit.

You've got to burn it back and then hit the affected area with some Knockout®.  That'll keep the regrowth down for about 48 hrs.

83

Maybe if we start giving Team Obama a little shiny gold star (wow good job)when He finally comes to the right answer, He will be encouraged to do right and quit playing around with the countrys finances, security,  cohesiveness.

or maybe not. maybe He just blows with the polls.

88 This isn't just about inconsistency. It's about partisanship bordering on sedition and shallow, callow thinking run riot through our supposed leadership.

That's not a border, somebody just drew a line across the middle of "sedition."

89 >>>This isn't a joke outside of blog snark. Yeah, it's what passes for a legitimate defense of Obama's incompetence and bad policy decisions. This is what we're losing to, morons. If we didn't have the Bad News Bears Republicans, we'd be killing the Democrats at the polls.

I think you're on to something. I'll make the impending roll even easier:

1. Obama, with deep regret and lots of nasty things to say, goes grudging along with the Republican "hostage takers".
2. Obama for America, MFM, and the rest of the usual suspects praise Obama for his bi-partisanship, omnipotence, and benevolence in his cooperation with the Hitler-like Republicans, while stating repeatedly and often that Republicans promised a chicken in every pot, a Volt in every driveway, a Skittle-Shitting Unicorn in every living room, next to the free flatscreen, etc.
3. Around Fall of 2011, when everyone is pissed that shit still sucks and no one got the goodies that the MFM promised, Obama for America, MFM, and the rest of the usual suspects begin the gripe campaign about how Republican Extremists held America hostage and make up an endless stream of 24/7 stories about grandma eating cat food and videos of mass graves and mud huts full of starving Ethiopian children- except the video is labeled- LIVE footage from New Orleans Boehnervilles
4. Obama swoops in after his Spring Break 2012 vacation, wearing a cape with his goatse symbol on it, with his "John Galt" plan to save us from evil Republicans- a plan that no one has ever seen and the only thing anyone knows about it is adjectives like, "Heroic", "Unprecedented", "New Hope of Change", etc.
5. John McCain and Lindsey Graham will go on TV and apologize for making Obama feel butt hurt and say that there is nothing to fear from an Obama second term.

109 Is Barky actually going to campaign next year? If that video yesterday is any indication, he's going to phone it in and have TOTUS show up in his place.

110 >>>Now, you hear nary a peep about our vastly worse circumstances. How about this: "Can you believe Bush is attacking Libya!?!?!?" That's what you'd be hearing from every single Democrat if Bush was doing what Obama is doing now.

111

A point I've been thinking about lately.  Not really on topic.

Both liberals and conservatives refer to those who favor the other side as "stupid".  Liberals take it a step further, saying that the reason that anyone votes for the GOP is that their messaging is better; that they are able to sell inferior policies with better messages.

Which leads liberals to think they too can sell shitty policies, if only they can sell them properly. It also leads to liberals calling out constituents and potential constiuents as stupid.

We need to stop thinking that the people on the other side are somehow tricked by liberal spin.  They're not.  They're acting out of

1) complete ignorance or

2) self-interest.

Nobody seriously believes liberal spin, except for those who have a vested interest in doing so.

112 *snicker*

113

Man, he loves this line doesn't he?

And yes, he did say 'get a haircut'. Please refrain from the 'landing strip' jokes.

 

Yeesh, and he mentions not tolerating cuts in Headstart and medical research (you know, the big targets of Evil Republicans)--because he cares about the children and fostering innovation.   Funny that, because the tax that's imposed on medical devices in Healthcare Reform is going to reduce medical research, and he hasn't said boo about that.  I hate him.  He's the world's biggest hypocrite.  I long for the day when he's exposed for the fraud that he is.  Alas, I don't see that happening.

114

You guys are just trying to trick me into watching MSNBC. What channel number is that on, anyway?

The thing is, a President gets a "honeymoon" of sorts for about two years. Beyond that, they get blamed for everything, whether it's their fault or not. The "libtards" must have missed that memo. Too bad. BWA-HA-HA-HA!

The Messiah's race card is probably getting pretty worn out, too - especially after the Libya thing.

115 If that video yesterday is any indication, he's going to phone it in and have TOTUS show up in his place. Simple economics, baby. TOTUS isn't a part of SAG or AFTRA so they hire cheap, and I can buy as many as you can afford. I send them around the world of need ruled by white man's greed and spread my campaign. Meanwhile my feet are cush in fresh Nike cleats for the putting green. It's good to be the King.

116

That's what you'd be hearing from every single Democrat if Bush was doing what Obama is doing now.

125

The thing is, a President gets a "honeymoon" of sorts for about two years

 

Really?  I know I wasn't really paying attention back then, but I distinctly remember Bush being attacked from Day 1 (screams of his illegitimacy and being selected not elected).  He got a short reprieve right after 9/11, but maybe just a week or so before people were harping on his "My Pet Goat Moment" and the anti-war movement ratcheted up against going into Afghanistan.  (I remember being asked to sign the ANSER petition against it, which I declined to do).  Thing is, Democrats are always held to a much lower standard than Republicans, and Obama's been particularly coddled and promoted by the MFM.  It's completely unprecedented.

126 Too bad this shitbrick isn't going to have to debate until after september 2012 when we wind up with whatever pussy cowardly squish we pick that will dare not challenge him.  I think it would be hilarious to watch him defend his policies against a liberal hack that could beat him over the head with his own 2008 campaign rhetoric.

127 I wouldn't touch FLOTUS with a 10' font.

130 Juan williams on hannity saying the wire services and everyone has come out saying that Ryan's budget is going to add a trillion to the deficit.  And Varney and sean are shocked and unable to respond.

131 I don't think Zero will campaign at all next year, outside of a few televised speeches with vague references to his opponents. His surrogates will do the dirty work of actual campagning, while Zero strikes poses with his nose in the air. And they and Zero will be slaughtered. Then he will write his next book: "How the Klan acting as the TEA party destroyed his presidency".

132

Socialists acting like socialists--shocka!

We peons can't do much about Maobama until Nov 2012. but we can go to work on that little slice of the 52% we all know. they did the same thing Obama did. Bush was a war criminal; and Obama is a brave leader. Make them eat their words. They are socialist frauds.

And yes, he did say 'get a haircut'.

Oh, you can't cut this shit.

You've got to burn it back and then hit the affected area with some Knockout®.  That'll keep the regrowth down for about 48 hrs.

135 abc news played a clip of some dem screaming that "they are privatizing medicare and that will hurt all the old people who are angry"....shades of things to come?

136

It must really chap Ms. Slut-Dancing Perky Colonoscopy to know that she's likely to be replaced with someone as anonymous as Pelley.

 

It chaps my  hide that she's being rewarded for her failure with a sweet afternoon tv gig.  They are prognosticating that she will be able to successfully fill Oprah's slot. 

Oprah's absence will leave a big void.  I hope Katie tanks.  I hope Oprah's new venture tanks (already not looking good).  I hope they all tank.  Mofos saddled us with Sir Gaffs A Lot.

138 I bet my friend two grand that the republicans will debate but whoever is nominated will never debate the president.  He'll have excuses, he's the presdient and it's hard work.

139 Juan williams on hannity saying the wire services and everyone has come out saying that Ryan's budget is going to add a trillion to the deficit. Eh? Come again? And it will cost us another trillion if the government doesn't buy every citizen a condo with a swimming pool. Sheesh.

140 My wife tells me Oprah is a life long Republican, but she lies to me all the time....

141 Alan Simpson on FOX-- who knew he was still alive

142

Too bad this shitbrick isn't going to have to debate until after september 2012

 

Truthfully, depending on who the candidate is, I can see Obama weasling out of the debates under the guise that he has "more important stuff to do running this country."  Mark my words.  It will be, of course, unprecedented, but the  media will play right along.

143

Yeah, her absence leaves a big void.

145 Curious, you have fabulously, fast fingers!

146 Fuck!  that would have been funny if I was able to finish the post before it went up.  Stupid fat fingers.

147 No, I'm kidding, it wouldn't have been all that funny.

148 Wait, did someone just put 'Eric Holder' and 'principle' in the same sentence?

I'd have laughed in your wife's face.  She licked Obama's feet constantly, and then refused to have Palin on, because she didn't want to "politicize" her show.

150

116 The libtards I run with who constantly bitched about the Iraq war haven't said a word about Libya.

My own experience is that when Libya is brought up they immediately start into Bush-bashing. When you say, "That's nice, but Bush left office a long time ago - what about Obama and this Libya thing?" they will continue with the Bush-bashing cliche. It's actually pretty funny to witness.

Another thing they do is complain about the cost of Libya. Now the DoD spends $2B a DAY, normally, but suddenly $0.5B is all-important. Never mind that Federal spending is something like $2500.0B per year, with $1000.0B+ in deficit spending - that they deny is a crisis. I figure they feel betrayed by Obama, but just can't bring themselves to criticize him in a substantive way.

151 I have to appologize for not closing GITMO yet. But as has been said here I didn't have all the info needed for that decision while I was campaigning.

Who knew GITMO had a golf course?

As soon as I get a chance to play it I will then decide GITMO's fate.

152 Wait, did someone just put 'Eric Holder' and 'principle' in the same sentence? Sure, that's perfectly correct. Example: "Eric Holder should be dipped in a vat of sheep dung and hosed with goose feathers, on principle alone."

153 Why are we all still married to people who demand that politeness trumps politics?

The Jade Gate.

Sean Hannity flummoxed?  The deuce you say. He is a fine chap, but a trifle slow on the uptake.

156 My wife does not expect politeness, but she prays I'll some day stop pissing in the yard.

157 That thing Peter King said... made my wiener tingle.

158 OT -- Meet the Greater Boston Labor Council leader Rich Rogers:
 
’And to the Republican party of Massachusetts, if you think this is gonna happen here, it is going to be over thousands of dead people’s bodies. If you think Wisconsin was anything, we need to stop these guys in their tracks now and kill their bills at the State house.”
 
More of the new civility in action.

159
So who do I call if my schadenboner lasts more than 4 hours?

160 Hmm. Where I come from a "deuce" is something between you and your bathroom. But Sean is a trifle slow, I confess.

164 #149
Actually there is good reason to believe that Oprah-mas exposure on her huge-audience show helped Obama early on in getting the Democrat nomination, and its even possible that without that exposure and her enthusiastic endorsement he wouldn't have gotten the nomination.

 

165 So who do I call if my schadenboner lasts more than 4 hours? A worthy vessel. If you get my drift.

And I think if he does try and pull that then whoever the GOP candidate is should say, "Hey, I understand he's got important things to do, but I'm sure I can fit 18 holes on my schedule at the same time he has it."

But no I expect him to debate.  It will just be done a minimum number of times so he can't be accused of dodging debating.  So you know, 2 debates. One with Stephanopolous as moderator, and then one with Brian Williams.

Front or back yard? If we're talking front, then she's high class indeed. If she's including the backyard, she is not only unreasonable, but she's preventing the use of organic herbicides.

169

144 My wife tells me Oprah is a life long Republican, but she lies to me all the time....

That's a good one, so here's another. My brother says that the Air Force Times "caters to" conservative military people.

These guys remind me of a joke where St. Peter shows someone new around Heaven, and instructs them to be quiet as they approach a certain section. (Apologies to anyone who knows that joke, and doesn't care for being on the wrong end of it.) The point is about people who live in their own little world, not recognizing that there people out there who look at things differently. In our case, they even do this, while claiming to be "intellectual".

170

Actually there is good reason to believe that Oprah-mas exposure on her huge-audience show helped Obama early on in getting the Democrat nomination, and its even possible that without that exposure and her enthusiastic endorsement he wouldn't have gotten the nomination.

Yeah, wasn't that one of her "Favorite Things" show?

I'll take a piece of that.


It probably won't be three debates, and it will be probably be in a highly controlled forum, with no possible surprises, but Obama will definitely debate the Republican nominee.  

For that not to happen would be unprecedented, and ducking a debate would look really bad. 

Besides, Obama is totally in love with the sound of his own voice.  When does he NOT want to be on TV talking?

I usually call Reggie Love or Kal Penn at that point.

Brian will have his enchanting "O" face on.

I just hope those boys bring their jizz cloths and drool cups.

179

Yeah, but I don't see him having the patience to sit there and wait for someone else to give their opinion.  (Now that he's president, I think he has less tolerance for that sort of thing).

180 "At least she lost her gig. Posted by: laceyunderalls " Is she on food stamps? Then what does it matter. These people are so damn rich, they can be as dumb in public as they wish.

181 Posted by: Optimizer at April 05, 2011 04:27 PM (2lTU+)

As a member of the Church of Christ, I happen to think it's hilarious. 

For those who don't know, the short version is St. Peter takes this newly ascended soul on the tour, showing him where the different denominations get together.  They're all partying and having fun.  Then they get to a little section that's all somber and quiet, and the newbie asks "Whose place is this?"

St. Peter responds, "SHHH!  That's the Church of Christ.  They don't think anyone else is here."

182

Yeah,  my wife wants me to stop pissing in the shower.

We have a little pro-team garden gnome--one evening after they blew a game and I blew a sixpack, I went out and pissed all over it.

To my horror a few minutes later she was holding it up showing it to some company. Then she dropped it.

"Taking joy from other people's boners?  I really don't find that 'better'.......There's only one boner I like...and that's MINE."

No, no, no, a schadenboner is the stiffy you get when watching someone you despise screw up.

It's German, not Austrian.

185 wonder if chris mathews will be the moderator next time around, i know He would like to help Obama, it would be only fair.

186 Lacey, she took herself off.  She's started a new network OWN.  She got the biggest endorsement deal from Procter and Gamble.  I hope she fails.

187 I don't even know what to say about this.

188

Comrades, Barry has always been for the military tribunals at Gitmo and Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia

189 181 - lol that made me laugh. As a Catholic (yes, we get drunk on Saturday night and go to mass on Sunday) in a sea of Church of Christ people in my area I totally understand your post.

190 Whether Dear Leader will agree to a presidential debate, I think, depends on the candidate we end up with.  If it's Fuckabee or Romney, he'll debate.  If it's Herman Caine, Rand Paul, or Sarah Palin, then no.  He'll be too engrossed in his presidentin'. 

191 187 I don't even know what to say about this. Posted by: laceyunderalls at April 05, 2011 04:35 PM (pLTLS) "Gah!" springs to mind, along with "Oh my God!" and "What the..."

192 #178 & 179

Frankly, I think Obama, sucked at the Presidential debates (all of them).  Unfortunately, this wasn't quite as apparent as it could have been since McCain was pretty lousy too.

A knowledgeable and skilled debater could probably make mincemeat of Obama in a "real" debate, and there are at least several of the current crop of potential Republican nominees who could do it, I think.

Unlike the last debates, where Obama could basically conjure up any fantasy he liked, this time, he'll actually have to respond to specific items from his record during his first term.

Oh,  fuck you.

201 I am not sure why people are convinced that debates are all that worthwhile. I am sure that you conjure up a scenario where some sharp tongued person could tie Obama up in knots. Now, imagine a news network that would put that debate together. A lot harder, isn't it. Whatever the perceived strength of the Republican candidate in debating, the press or League of Women Voters or whoever else will put some thing together that nullifies it. Debates don't matter all that much. I mean, Jeebus, does anyone remember anything President Obama said in his debates, either in the primary or the general?

"We are the ones they've been grating on."

203 So who do I call if my schadenboner lasts more than 4 hours? Well, I know what MY procedure is in those cases.

204 #201

I remember more of the Biden-Palin debate, but yeah, I do remember some of the McCain-Obama debates as well.

But your general point is good.

Debates are mostly good theater for political junkies.  They sometimes produce good sound bites ("You're no Jack Kennedy". . . "I won't make an issue of my opponent's youth and inexperience").

But in terms of truly undecided voters listening in, then making up their mind solely or even largely based on what said in the debates. . .there really can't be many times where that actually applies.

205 116

That's what you'd be hearing from every single Democrat if Bush was doing what Obama is doing now.

 

The libtards I run with who constantly bitched about the Iraq war haven't said a word about Libya.  I'm dying to say something, but my husband begged me to let it go.  I don't know how much longer I can hold it in.

Posted by: That Kid from The Sixth Sense at April 05, 2011 04:09 PM (ihSHD)

Don't let it go. These fuckers deserve every single minute of it. They set the standard; we need to hold these dickwads to it, and expose them for the traitors they are. This was never about principled disagreement - it was ALWAYS about regaining power, no matter the cost.

"This is the moment when the rise of the oceans begins to slow and our plant began to heal."

The most megalomaniacal comment ever from an aspirant to the White House.  Obama is seriously mentally challenged.  Who believes Obama is not a narcissistic sociopath?

207 Posted by: gesc at April 05, 2011 04:37 PM (XYtfv)

I have a ton of Church of Christ jokes.  And I've been a member of the CoC since I was born.

I really like a comment a preacher friend of my family once told a bunch of Elders who were throwing a fit over having a Christian band (you know, with instruments and everything) give a concert: "Why is it that everyone else calls their main meeting hall a Sanctuary, but threats it like an auditorium, and we call it an auditorium, but treat it like a sanctuary?"

208

201 I remember that bit about inflating my tires...which doesn't seem to have dropped the price of gas any... (wait...that wasn't in a debate).

Ok, he was always calling McCain "John"; I remember that. (honestly I've pretty much avoided his presence on the tv ...there's always the risk that he'll crawl out of the screen)

213 Ditta was overrated...she tried to combine Bettie Page with Tura Satana with Gypsy Lee, and she never really managed to pull off matching any of those gals.

 

214 As Ann Coulter has noted the commie-libs never supported the fight against the enemy at the time the fight was happening.  It's only after the fact when they "grow"and recognize the fight was the right thing to do.  It;s like the baby-boomers with free love and widepread drug use.  When they are wrecking the country with free love and drugs they call you stupid for not agreeing free love and drugs will improve the country.  Then 40 years later when they have lung cancer and more STDs than a hooker and they wise up they demand credit for "discovering" the wisdom in conventional society.

They are evil, and whether they know they are spreading evil is beside the point.  It doesn't matter if the crazy guy on the airplane wants to open the emergency exits in flight for fresh air or because he is a terrorist.  His actions threaten us all.  The Mayberry Americans willfully ignore the danger from the Left with the insipid "they just don't understand."  If they don't understand after the 20th century, they don't want to understand.
