— and the answer is none, none more historic.
Or none more black, if you prefer the original.

11, that’s how historic. Deal with, wingnutz!
You can deal with IT while you’re at it. Damn you, iphone keyboard.
It’s bizarre how people can be so completely self-satirizing and yet oblivious at the same time.
You’d think it would require some intentional effort but I guess not.
Is that an armadillo in his trousers?
Hey, he has yet to be reelected. The reelection of the first gay female black hispanic jew would be Historic.
You can’t stand athwart history and yell “stop!” Not if you don’t want to appear unreasonable.
FORWARD!
bh, don’t you remember the bit about farce and history repeating itself?
We’ve moved from irony to farce now.
Barack Obama: Our First Gay-Female-Hispanic-Asian-Jewish President Who Can Legitimately Endorse Just For Men Hair Coloring.
Landslide-iditity, landslide-alicious, or more simply, buried.
Hoped and changed and soon to be forgotten.
But not our first Muslim president. No way, no how!
Get back to me when we gets Our First Gay-Female-Hispanic-Asian-Jewish-Transgendered Prezzydent. Until then, we are all racist homo- and tranny- phobe h8trz.
Ooh, a Muslim too. I knew i forgot one. Damn, so many grievance groups. It’s hard to remember them all sometimes.
On a scale of 1 to 10, Obama’s awesomeness goes to 11.
“History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.”
Karl Marx quotes.
Ernst, I do believe the last four years have been a tragedy. But the farce that this president has become is pushing us towards greater tragedy.
I just hope that, at some time in the not-too-distant future, I can sit on my porch in Galt’s Gulch with an adult beverage in my hand and a shotgun across my knees and just laugh my ass off at all those who bought into his shtick.
A guy I used to work for called himself a Republican, but I don’t think he supported one of the party positions. We used to discuss politics often (which is likely one reason I don’t work for him any more). He was excited to vote for Obama, whom he thought would be “the best president ever.”
I wonder what he thinks of Obama now.
You worked for Andrew Sullivan, cranky? He thinks Obama’s just fab these days, by the way.
Probably that Obama would be the best president ever if it wasn’t for those racist Republicans in the House, cranky.

So before a meeting at work, folks observed an amplifier in the corner, and I said, “It only goes to 10,” and nobody seemed to get it.
Either that or I’m a low-talker, in which case you owe me an appearance in a pirate shirt.
nr, that whole Zimmerman thing has gotten quiet lately, hasn’t it? Reality intrudes on pre-chosen narrative once again.
So my guess is that if Barack Obama had a son, and he found himself in a fight, he’d end up looking like George Zimmerman’s medical report.
Radio news report, probably CBS or ABC, quoted the defense as saying Zimmerman’s injuries corroborate his story, then the report quotes the prosecution as saying something to the effect of “but Zimmerman pursued Martin….”
Oh! The prosecution says? Case closed, man. Case. Closed.
I predict a quiet, dropping of the case before it goes to trial.
Oh, and regarding our first gay President? Zombie James Buchanan would beg to differ with El Cool B to the O’s claim on that one.
Burt —
I said from the outset that the prosecution’s case would hinge on this “pursuit” — as if following a guy who you don’t know through the rain in the neighborhood where you’re watch captain is a crime. It isn’t. Confronting him isn’t a crime.
But that’s the play here.
The government, local or federal, Democrat or Republican, wants victims. They want us retreating and dependent on them. And if we won’t do it willingly, they’ll make sure we are prosecuted.
It’s all about control.
If I were Zimmerman’s attorneys I would start the rumor that Trayvon was a severe homophobe and attacked Zimmerman because he thought he was gay.
Hell, it may even be the truth.

Chickens.

I read somewhere that Bush 43 was the first Muslim president.
I guess it wasn’t a beautiful day in his neighborhood.
More like a typical night at the Obama household.
nr, I’m doing my best not to read anything about Fearless Leader. But those little snippets coming out of the book are dragging me in.
