A thread all about Obama's failures as president

[spring-peeper]

You know, I'd love it if this coming Thanksgiving he doesn't pardon the turkey and orders it to be roasted up.

pmsl

I remember watching a West Wing episode where the president pardonned turkeys. What a quaint tradition!!!



Martin Sheen for president!!!

Hasn't Obama made ominous noises about 'reforming' social security, i.e. privatising it so the yuppie vultures who made such a brilliant success of the world's banking and finance system can get their claws into it?

Or did I imagine it?

Sounds about right - he always looked to me like America's Tony Blair.

Hope I'm wrong . . .

I can live with not ever seeing the social security money I've been paying my whole working life. I'd just like to get my tax returns this year.

For some reason, he feels that he needs a dog. However, it has to be a hypo-allergic dog. One of the dog shelters in Winnipeg raided a puppy mill and got a litter of Labradoodles and asked Harper to offer them to Obama as a gift.

He hasn't responded yet.

Mixed race dogs, no irony there at all.

Maybe it's just talk. It flashed on the news the other day. I can only hope for the best. Still I'm convinced it's the 1970s.

I can't forgive him for selecting Hilary Clinton for Secretary of State.

I'm sorry, I just don't get it: exactly how does this change tokenism?

I have, however, made my peace with this country's electoral process...

This isn't McCain, nodding to the tune of "My Hero" by the Foo Fighters.

You're on fire today missus! Damn that Obama!

 

[kyser_soze]

He hasn't walked on water, nor has he changed water into wine, or fed anyone, let alone 5,000 people, with a some fish and a loaf of unleavened bread.

I have fire in my belly.

 

[purplex]

[dilute micro]

True this isn't Obama's doing but wtf is it? I can make up my own mind and sure don't need the government's help.
