Honest Scott, in your quest to **** on everything not conservative,
you're beginning to sound foolish.

Honest, Loogy, in your quest for Obama sainthood, your lack of concern
for the soldiers being killed while Obama plays makes you sound a
little foolish.

Do you not remember the minority media during the Bush admin. Just
want to see some balanced ideas. This double standard is ridiculous
and dangerous for our country. And yes, I remember clearly Obama
saying clearly "I will listen to my generals in the field" during the
campaign, and clearly, he is not, that is important. Much more
important than Scooter Libby forgetting a date.

I'll tell you a double standard. John claims that anything that
happened during the Bush administration is of now, gone. And yes, he
IS listening to his generals. He met for 25 minutes recently regarding
how best to move forward.

You've read my 'claim' several times. Now you lie about it. That's not
what I've said. Apparently you still don't understand, or you do
understand but can't face it.

Yes I do. He gave it up direcly because of the criticism.

Call it what you will. I don't care one way or the other as I said.

What's fair is fair.

Obama is asking others to sacrifice for the good of the collective but,
Obama is not willing to make any type of sacrifice himself.

Come on. Now it's the new, new canard.... too much golf. Bush was on
vacation for 1/3 of his term in office. That was ok with you? It's ok
with you for Obama to "just make a decision," rather than actually think
it through? Keep pounding away at the golf theme if you think that'll
help.

Yes, it is a canard, as Bush's vacations were. With modern
communications, neither President is ever out of reach. Frankly,
whatever relieves the stress. Watch how a President ages before your
eyes. Bush showed the wear of eight years, and Obama is starting to show
some after only nine months. IMO, he can golf all he wants.


I agree, but I'm wondering what was Bush's stress from? He was on vacation a
lot prior to 9/11. I can understand (I suppose) after, but before?

Yes and no. It becomes a political issue when one side makes enough
of a fuss about it to cause a President to react by not participating
in a "relaxing" activity. What's fair is fair - you make it a
political issue, then it becomes a political issue.

Frankly, I honestly don't care either. However, again to be fair and
balanced, the media and the Left made a big deal about President
Bush's golf outings during times of economic stress and two wars. So
why aren't they making the same comparision for President Obama who

Where was Fox and Limbaugh during Bush's extended vacation after 9/11? Seems
to me they thought everything was just fine. You're making it out to be a
political issue with Obama, but it was ok for Bush. Sounds like a political
agenda to me.

It's totally fair. That guy was an idiot (or so I'm told).

Tell that to the families of the dead soldiers. Besides, what better
time to hit them than when they are inactive?

Except for trying to fix the major problems of the economy and two wars
created by his predecessor... maybe if the right stopped trying to get his
birth certificate (is it from Kenya or Australia?) and started trying to
help... no, that's too much to ask from the right.

Yeah, I suppose when you have a life/death decision to make involving 10s of
1000s of lives, you make a decision without much thought. Oh wait, your name
isn't Bush.

I think it's fair to compare Obama with *any* idiot.


It is, because he's not one and it makes the idiot more obvious.
