Decent speech by the President at the memorial service for the Fort Hood victims, but why does doing or saying the right thing always seem to take him longer than it should?
When I hear a Democrat say 'bipartisanship' I hear 'we need a Republican on board to blame when our idea doesn't work'. And yet the Republicans fall for it over and over. Time to replace the elephant with a picture of Charlie Brown holding a football.
Robin Williams once joked about English law enforcement procedure concerning unarmed police faced with a fleeing criminal: Stop, or I'll say stop again. Who knew years later this would be adopted as Obama administration policy toward Iran, and North Korea, and Afghanistan, and terrorism, and you get the idea? The only thing that so far has warranted a stronger Obama stand is the destruction of criticism and dissent.
Anyone see the photo-op cheshire cat grin of Imelda Pelosi being serenaded by fellow Democrats applause Saturday night, after the passing of that unconstitutional health care bill? I can't see that picture without adding the caption 'Look how much money I just spent'.
Can someone please tell Bill Clinton that the real conspiracy is how Al Gore is still somehow living on the government dime.
Where'd all the war protesters go?
Before the moon was bombed shouldn't we have given UN sanctions a chance, or at the least sent Hillary Clinton there to open a dialogue? Maybe even add the moon to the presidential apology tour list for landing there in the first place.
I guess its safe to assume that the wind beneath Bette Midlers' wings isn't Glenn Beck.
The NFL and its esteemed commissioner Roger Goodell carry the scent of hypocrisy concerning the possibility of Rush Limbaugh becoming a part-owner of the St. Louis Rams. Goodell couldn't even hold Larry Johnsons' actual homophobic comments to the same standard as he did the imagined comments attributed to Limbaugh.
What is diversity? Hearing a caller to a national sports radio show saying Limbaugh is blatantly racist because he's from Missouri, and that the midwest is naturally racist because there's 'no diversity' has me concerned. Is diversity a region predominately white but with varying opinions stemming from differing ethnic and religious influences, or is diversity represented by a political party whose members all parrot the exact same words?
I guess diversity means Democrat.
Why is it whenever a member of the US Politburo, sorry, Congress, cites a statistic or percentage it sounds like they've made it up that very second?
If anything written here led you to believe I'm Republican, not hardly. I left back in 1990. Watching The Dede and Newt Funtime Road Show further cemented my feeling that Republicans are low-cal Democrats. Flipping the bird to the voters they're supposed to be courting by running candidates like John McCain, and then trying to justify it with a bend-over-and-accept-it attitude is a great way to ru(i)n a political party. Do I support third parties? No, but I understand the anger and frustration that comes from being ignored by the party leaders who've been holed up in DC for so long that they've lost the ability to relate to, and for that matter even talk to, ordinary people.
If either party spent even half as much time protecting the greater interests of the country as they do playing politics they'd never lose another election.
