There's no 86th Congressional District in Arizona either, but the

has been spent there."

Huh - how about that.

Maybe the 9th and 86th Arizona districts are in Chicago - Land of
Zombie Voters and Vote Early, Vote Often.


Golly gee willikers, Tom! Doncha know there are 57 states, too?

(The folks can't even get their propaganda straight.)


Well I'm sure the Paste Eaters will have some kind of defense.

It's funny in a strange other worldly way. We just got rid of a
President who, it could be fairly said, did ok but wasn't the best
President we've ever had only to replace him with a complete and total
incompetent.

Talk about Peter Principle - President Obama has created a whole new
category of incompetence - a Super Peter Principle.

Now there's one he should take a bow for...

Speaking of gratuitous genuflection, I've heard through the grapevine
that the President is unofficially rehearsing for what he expects to
receive from the Queen of England in an invitation to be knighted,
with the understanding that he will invariably earn the honor in the
future (a kind of 'ROI'al investment).

The were probably briefed on protocol and acted accordingly. The current
dip hasn't a clue.

I'm familiar with the Brezhnev-Connors hug.

It's one thing to comport oneself with appropriate diginity and with
respect for others, it's another to act obsequiously. It's not
befitting a president of the United States and leader of the free
world, even if the President deems it to be a necessary symbolic
gesture. It's a symbol rooted in a naive ideology.

It could not be "fairly said, did ok." He was a disaster domestically and
internationally. If you're going to make the argument that there are
problems with the stim package, that's fine, but to claim there's a
comparison between a president who ruined the economy, gutted social welfare
programs, helped his cronies to the troff, and started a war of choice that
killed 5000 and maimed 30,000 of our soldiers, that completely destroys your
argument.

Ah, come on, Bush did a great job. Just look what he has done for the
Republican Party. We won't have to deal with a Republican President for
at least a generation.

You have just completely destroyed any credibility you may have had
with thinking beings. Your brain has become clouded with some kind of
jello, the synapses are no longer firing in a rational order.

Maybe you need to go fishing or read a book. Maybe Dickens.
