Obama faces total collapse. Does anyone support the government in
Washington, DC?

"Nation's highest civilian honor"! Thanks!
>Obama faces total collapse.
Try living in the real world.
Yah.
OBAMA:" Please, everybody, have a seat. Let me first of all just thank
Ken and the entire Department of the Interior staff for organizing
just an extraordinary conference.
I want to thank my Cabinet members and senior administration officials
who participated today. I hear that Dr. Joe Medicine Crow (ph) was
around, and so I want to give a shout out to that Congressional Medal
of Honor winner. It's good to see you. "
I guess Obammy is too fucking stooopid to understand the difference
between the Medal of Honor (not called the "Congressional Medal of
Honor" for years) and the Medal of Freedom.
Iraq, Iran, North Korea and Afghanistan do!!!
Expand your circle of friends beyond yourself.

One of the "rules" for liberals who think they are arguing:
Don't bother refuting a statement or idea with logic, facts or reason. Start
out on the high ground with a personal attack. That'll show 'em!
When a statement or idea is not grounded in logic, facts, or reason,
it needs no refutation with same. Until you get that through your
thick skull, you'll never know how to debate, and deserve to be
treated as the moody loner that you are.
That being true, the circle may be expanded but nothing will change.

So far the big winner of the Obama administration is Dan Quayles legacy.
Old Dan is looking pretty smart these days.
An Russia !

He's Dangerous Without a Teleprompter
The Associated Press has a dismaying report on a meeting in which President
Obama lobbied House Democrats to pass the ObamaCare bill:
Participants also said Obama had referred to this week's
shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas, in which 13 people
were killed. His remarks put in perspective that the hardships
soldiers endure for the country are "what sacrifice really
is," as opposed to "casting a vote that might lose an election
for you," said Rep. Robert Andrews, D-N.J.
If Obama actually said this, it's even more shocking than his infamous
"shout-out" last week. Blogress Ann Althouse has a nicely understated
response:
I'm trying to imagine the political environment that Washington
Democrats occupy. A President glibly lays out that analogy, and
it is received--without any wincing or taint of disgust--as
awesome inspiration. These are the minds that will be making
decisions for us for quite a while.
The New York Times has another jaw-dropping secondhand Obama quote:
According to Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon, who
supports the health care bill, the president asked, "Does
anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are
going to support them if they bring down health care? All
it will do is confuse and dispirit" Democratic voters "and
it will encourage the extremists."
If Obama really said "teabag," let's call this what it is: antigay hate speech
by the president of the United States.

What part of that do you disagree with?
Putting your life on the line to protect this country and sometimes getting
killed as a result: real hardship.
Struggling over whether or not to cast a vote based upon whether it might
lose you your high paying public service job: not so much real hardship.

The 'tea party' people actually gave themselves the name 'teabaggers', if
only by accident. Calling them that most certainly isn't anti-gay speech of
any sort as 'teabagging' doesn't indicate a form of gay anything, just a
form of oral sex.
Yeah, but it seems to be associated with homosexuals and prison.

Only in your mind. Homosexuals and heterosexuals both perform that
particular act, but it's primariily either a frat house prank or a
display of pwnage in online gaming.
Really? I've had a pretty libertine heterosexual life and I've never done
that. Looks pretty uncomfortable for one thing.
But hey if you want to lick someone's balls, it's America, knock yourself
out. Just keep it to yourself.
Depends what you mean by support. If you mean "financial support," then
the healthcare industry, the banking industry and the oil industry are
providing a lot of it to Congress to vote against Obama.
1) There is NO "vote against Obama"
2) Feel free to support your claim with DATA
And naturally
I hope it was just his speech writers being too stupid to know the
diff..
