Isn’t it great America only had to wait three and three-quarters years to figure out that the Bears are who we thought they were?
surely the republicans can take back at least one house of Congress.
Gloria Borger asks, will Obama most resemble the sexual predatory sociopath, or the incompetent, aloof anti-semite?
Her ongoing adoration for the Sex-Offender-in-Chief reflects the usual hypocrisy of female liberals who claim to support “women”. but are in fact happy to laud a man who used and abused many women for his basest pleasures, so long as he agrees with her progressive stance on certain issues.
Pathetic.
Obama lacks Clinton’s inherent pragmatism. Billy-Jeff had to modify his platforms and policies in order to be elected Guv in Ark many times.
Obama has never learned how to compromise.
Obama is an ideologue and as such, will not “move to the middle”.
It’s just not in his psyche to move off his ideological stances.
This will create 2 years of partisan gridlock after the 2010 elections, where Obama will spend the remainder of his presidency blaming the GOP in Congress for his increasing failures.
Of course, Obama will still yield the Veto pen, so no GOP initiatives will actually pass, but at least Obama’s big-spending, collectivist agenda will be checked.
OT: Here we go again?
surely the republicans can take back at least one house of Congress.
And surely that will solve it all! Because the GOP has a long track record of taking office, then taking charge. No guff from those nasty Dems, no compromising their principles, no ignoring the will of the people.
First thing they always do is roll up their sleeves and roll back all of the rotten legislation that the Dem-controlled congress passed, and when they’re finished with that, they go over existing legislation with a fine-toothed comb, compare each and every line with the Constitution, and discard all of those parts that don’t comply with a strict interpretation of the letter.
Followed by a bevy of house elves sweeping in with trays of eclairs and lemonade.
TSI: Yeah, saw that on the monitors when I came to work today.
Part deux ought to be real interesting. Maybe the blow-out valve on this one is intact.
#4 TSI, #6 dicentra: It means the moratorium will continue until morale improves.
There will be no drilling. This provides an opportunity to expand the exclusion to all rigs, not just deep-water ones.

There will be 100+ fewer Democrats in the house and senate.
The republicans, confused as to the desires of the people that sent them, will not roll back anything or even attempt to cut the size of government due to their fear of the media paper tiger.
There will be 300+ new congressmen and senators the next go round, all from the TEA party. Newspapers will be gone; one less thing to worry about.
The rest of them will suddenly see the light.
Clinton or Carter?
Neither. I’d go with Crater.
I wouldn’t rule out Johnson.
He kept these promises just not in the way assumed.
Assumed by whom, geoff? And how long before some Kathleen Parker type uses that to argue he must be doing something right if both sides are mad at him?
More like snake, I think.
Is the rise of professional intentionalists an indicator about the state of the nation? Kinda like NPR et al openly (and breathlessly) “debating” on the air just how to manipulate voters. You know, election strategy.
I’m thinking it is.
As bad as Clinton was, Carter was far worse.
Although you can make the argument, Clinton was far more dangerous in his triangulation strategy.
promising to rescue an electorate sick of partisan divisions and gridlock in the mechanisms of government
So much could be solved by annointing our current POTUS as Kai Obama, High Chief Archon, Exarch of the Milky Way, Autarch of Sol 3, Murrican Intendant, and Praetor of the New Terran Order.
Although you can make the argument, Clinton was far more dangerous in his triangulation strategy.
Say what you like about the man, Bubba had an interesting taste in humidors.
Maybe we go for a complete recapitulation and deem him The Living Son of The Ever-Living-Sun.
I guess God wasn’t sitting in Hillary Rodham’s seat after all.
Bubba had an interesting taste in humidors.
And no taste whatsoever in either women or smokes.
I can’t honestly say, Mr Kipling, that I’ve tried either of his preferred poisons. One had far too many teeth; the other sounds absolutely rancid.
Although Lord knows it’s wide enough.
your coast guard at work
I wonder how many shares traded at a loss today to people what made the mistake of thinking the coast guard could find its ass with both hands
oops wrong thread this is the chicken thread
I’ll see your criticism and raise you tens of thousands of lives saved, thousands of drug busts and thankless service (see your very own comments) in some miserable places. I am sure every Officer, NCO and Coastie manning a cutter would just love to hear your kind words, hf. You are one of the most bitter people I read on a regular basis.
oh so sometimes they do their jobs that’s awesome
lately they seem to think their job is mostly to harass nice oil drilling Americans
Sometimes? You demand I don’t know what kind of perfection or you turn on everyone and everything like a rabid weasel. I suppose you maintain such perfection that you can keep casting stones – ie. Governor Christie – he’s dead to you… fine, Raise the Ghost of Jon Corzine, STAT! And your weird Palin-fixation, Tebow-mania and raving storm of profanity, misogony, homosexual slur flinging at everyone and everything that doesn’t meet your expectations – you ain’t got perfection as the enemy of the good, you’ve got “@#$% all y’all unless you do it EXACTLY my way, ALWAYS!!! 11!1” Jesus Christ on a pogo stick, I wouldn’t follow your ‘logic’ into an Irish tavern on St. Patrick’s Day if they were serving free whisky.
Now if you will pardon me, I have something much more important to do than wasting pixels on criticism. School open house night. I say GOOD NIGHT TO YOU, SIR.
Mr. Christie is not dead to me he just doesn’t get to be president until he can explain why victory mosques are simply unacceptable.
Good night Mr. LTC sometimes they have cookies
Pardon me boy, is that the Piedsheureux Choo Choo?
Yes, yes. Track twenty-nine!
with his sloppy blowjob of an endorsement of worthless cap n trade pansy Mike Castle yes Chris Christie is dead to me
Said the guy who spends a great deal of his workday posting bitter shit on the internet.
Let the word go forth from this time and place:
WE WILL HAVE GLITTERING ADAMANTINE PURE IMPOTENT RAGE AGAINST THE SHITTY-SHITTY FAILSHIT MACHINE!!!
and cupcakes.
But mostly impotent rage.
Ok, but only if the rage has frosting on it.
Frosting is for cumsluts! There will only be the frosting of our icy contempt for the impure and the whorish sellouts.
And Froth! Frothy foam flecked spittle from righteously angry outrage!
frosting is awesome I had blue cheese jalapeno cream cheese icing the other day and it was magical
Well then, the next time some politician fails to live up to your expectations by making the sort of shitty compromise that politics, like life, is full of, reach for the blue cheese jalapeno cream cheese icing.
(And I wish you’d posted first, because, “the icing of our frosty contempt” scans better.)
I like that about the the icing of our frosty contempt
It’s got a Richard the Third ring to it.
but what the icing is bestest for is to flavor the Team R triumphalism what is in the sickening cloying air almost everywheres you go these days
sayings of Frosty the Snowman
what light thru yonder window breaks? Hey..it’s Rudolph!
what a puddle of work is man
beware of Greeks bearing fudgicles
and of course his favorite street sign/ go slow-eskimos
Mr. buttons!
Plus it’s almost labor day!
labor day in t minus 3:15:00
that’s hrs/minutes/seconds if that’s not clear
It’s got a Richard the Third ring to it.
Not Eleanor of Aquitaine?
*sniff… sniff…*
Smells like either verve or Boutonniere of Aqualung to me.
So you do still remember December’s foggy freeze!

I am eating grapes right now.
Because I am immensely fat.
I’d murder a family member for a pizza.
