Fuck that. Why “govern” when you can get your RULE on:
Ah. It’s good to be the King!

Honesty or Freudian slip? Not that it matters, the result is the same. Hope. Change. O!bey.
…Freudian faceplant.
Words are meaningfully ambiguous!
Maybe he’ll be a kind and benevolent ruler.
“Balls!” cried the Queen. “If I had ’em I’d be King!”
Whoopsy!
I’m going to give her the benefit of the doubt and suggest that she was momentarily bedazzled by the “President-Elect” seal on the lectern.
She’s in trouble! She just implied that O! is only 12 inches.
Look, I’ll admit that I’m not the biggest historical scholar, but is there really an “Office of the President-Elect”?
She’s fairly attractive. Why couldn’t El PresidentO’s transition team leader look like Shirley Hemphil?
Techie, not until just now.
We can hope for a Benevolent Depotism I suppose.
That would be some change right there, I don’t care who you are.
s. there should be an ‘s’ in there.
Benevolent Depotism would be like home depot maybe.
I’m pretty sure it’s not the Cubicle of the President Elect.
Other than that, it is a rather vague concept.
In past occasions it’s been called “the transition office” or some such. Leave it to O! to make it personal.
What I take from that is more that the flunky wants to make sure that as the economy tanks and tanks and languishes uncertainly with no indication from Baracky what the parameters of his dirty socialist schemes are to be that it’s all on Bush. Just one president at a time so it would be wrong to help anyone gauge an investment or a business plan. We are in a deep hole Baracky will say and the deeper the better cause that narrative rocks.
I look forward to the recycling of Yakov Smirnoff material.

Dizzying spectacle isn’t it. Rule? I know that B’s supposed to be some great Harvard Constituational scholar, but I’m doubting he ever read it, I think he just picked up the Cliff Notes.
“Just words…”
Rule does not equal govern or preside, at least noy in our constitutional sense…
It may have simply been a Freudian slip, or a mask slip…or sumpin’…
But it was definately a slip
No wonder lefties never want to talk about how they’d govern. They don’t intend on governing.
But don’t use the word “Chimperor.”
Attractive? I dunno, she looks like Obama’s Mac McClarty to me.
All Glory to the Hypno-toad.
She has lizard neck, but . . .
OBAMA RULES!!!
Finally Collins comes around.
Whatever you’re calling yourself these days, where’s my free gas, bitch!?
He should just cut to the chase and change his name to Nehemiah Scudder.
He’s no fool. He knows a feudal lord must rule as well as reign.
Conservatives govern. Reactionary leftists rule.
Buckle your seat belts,kids
Venezuela here we go!!!!
tony
south haven,mi
Jeez Goldstein, it’s always about the the words for you!
Govern/rule
Good man/dangerous man
Surely distinctions without a difference!
Quit getting hung up on these persnickety little details.
For some reason the videos you link to don’t work for me (just get the little box with the red x), so I went to the site you linked to and watched it there.
The word “creepy” comes to mind.
BTW, Jeff – you’re apparently now “self-aggrandizing”…
C’est la guerre, baby.
Governing is soooo 2008, we are transitioning to the Obama “rule” of 2009. I think for our insane liberal douche-nozzle friends like Cliff Lyon http://oneutah.org/2008/11/09/bush-an-ugly-man-a-very-ugly-man-by-fox-news/ 2009 is the “Messianic reign” of Obama.

“We’ll just have to design a Perfect Government Hamburger to replace all that CRAP in fast food joints.
And you WILL eat it. Baracky won’t allow you to go back to your old lives, UN-uniformed, uninvolved, or unfed.”
There. Fixed that for you.
See? So rattled that I posted on the wrong thread….
I think I had one of those perfect government hamburgers back in the 70s. Can I have some fermented soybeans instead, please?
Hey, Carter was president, what did you expect? Maybe he’ll come back as a consultant. That sawdust from Habitat for humanity has to go somewhere, slackers.
Well the liberal illuminati wanted to get in there and take over why not kick Bush out a couple months early. It’s not like he is going to be doing anything anyway.
