6 I don't know. Maybe Chris Matthews can explain it to me. /rube

7 let me be clear i've always said spending is the solution to our fiscal crisis.

11 He is who we thought he was.  HE IS WHO WE THOUGHT HE WAS!!!!!  And 52% of you losers let him off the hook!

12 If he's not spending, he's spending time on the golf course. Either way, he needs that word.

Posted by: t-bird at March 25, 2011 01:01 PM (FcR7P)

13 I like the part where he says "spending"...you have to be quick to catch it though

Posted by: beedubya at March 25, 2011 01:01 PM (AnTyA)

14 spend until you're out of hope or  change.

Posted by: willow at March 25, 2011 01:02 PM (h+qn8)

15 Yeah, well the video of him on the links repeatedly screaming FORE!, would be twice as long.

16 Spending I know about ... have you seen the price on a carton on Newports?

Posted by: ReggieLove at March 25, 2011 01:03 PM (KUcUM)

17 The guy says "spend(ing)" about as much as he says "uhh," which is quite an accomplishment. It has to be unprecedented!

Posted by: AnonymousDrivel at March 25, 2011 01:03 PM (swuwV)

18 They got over six minutes of the word spend linked together.

I bet the only way to extract one word and make it longer is if you picked "Um"

22 I'm spent.

Posted by: Meggie mac at March 25, 2011 01:06 PM (BAtLQ)

23 The dates on the speeches show he uses variations on the word "spend" at least 6 times per speech - and that's just in the short ones!

Ack!

39 Fox has a financial/war special on tomorrow morning with Levin and The MoustacheTM Looks watchable.

PS.

I seen interviews with several CIA guys and they all look scared to death and sick to their stomachs.  All say we should have intervened earlier because now we have a mess on our hands and pretty soon we will need to protect Saudi oil fields.  They all say we don't have the man power to do that, Libya, Syria, etc.

I actually heard one on Fox say, 'pray'.

Given the CIA's batting average over the past 40-odd years, there's probably nothing to worry about, then.  They'd probably do better just throwing darts at a world map and a list of potential crises.

47 what would happen if the president was under threat of turning into a zombie? 

Posted by: Barney Frank at March 25, 2011 02:07 PM (tvs2p)

48 O/T:  You know they just referred to the "newly minted obama doctrine" on Faux news, yet they did not define the parameters of said doctrine nor how the visions of protests we'd just watched tied in to said doctrine.

And then I remembered this and all the talking about "what was the bush doctrine" and I thought to myself is it possible that the "newly minted obama doctrine" is really a continuation of the bush doctrine?

51 Holy shit, if there's one hacker on the planet targeting that combination, I'd be amazed. But if there is one, I'd bet he's a Nigerian who's gonna make you wealthy beyond your wildest dreams.

Posted by: Downscaled Upscale at March 25, 2011 06:24 PM (IhHdM)

ah, but he has no money, hence he won't be able to secure your millions until you send him a thousand dollars for courts and administrative costs and then, minus a cut, you can secure you millions.

I always worry that some poor little old lady will believe those guys and lose their savings.

52 Disclosure.  I just posted this at Ricochet.com--it's important and potentially subversive enough for exclusivity to have no place...

Posted by: ParisParamus at March 25, 2011 02:40 PM (bgSjf)

53 Some of those clips were cut hilariously.

"We have to spend more on spending"

It's a perfect pre-written GOP commercial (we could write another one with "taxes") Which, of course, means they won't use it....

How about a recording of "me" and "I".  That would be about as long as a recoding of a stutterer reading War and Peace.

Also, I wonder what the "word density" of his speeches is - that would be the total running time divided into the time spent actually pronouncing meaningful words (you would count silent pauses, "ummm", "and", "the", and so forth as dead air).  So if he gave a one-hour speech (Lord have mercy), and 60% of that was actually spoken non-filler words, the word density would be 60%.  You could be really fair and allow any interval of silence of less than (say) 1/10 of a second to count as the "normal" inter-word silence.  I'm thinking Obama would get a word density of about 30%, max.

Then there's thought-density.  I'm thinking 0% on that one.

55 Meh. I want to hear this piece's cousin: Preznint Splunik and "Choo-Choo" Biden saying "high speed rail" over and over ... with videos of steam locomotives going chuffa-chuffa-chuffa in the background.

56 Wow i really found this to be an interesting read; thanks for sharing

Posted by: Gouge sharpening at March 25, 2011 06:01 PM (AwEes)

57 The only thing that would make this more awesome is if there was a ticker on one of the margins that ticked up the current level of debt every time he said the word "spend," beginning with his inauguration.

Alright, which potential candidate has the nerve to show this (Pt.1, Pt.2, etc.) as campaign ads? Whoever -- you got my vote.

P.S. With Bolton as Secretary of State and West as Secretary of Defense.

He is who we thought he was.  HE IS WHO WE THOUGHT HE WAS!!!!!  And 52% of you losers let him off the hook!

I always thought average was 50% so anything above that had to be better than average.  What the heck happened in 2008?  OK, now that's out of the way we can admit that perhaps those Iraq (and other dictatorships') election results weren't that far off.
