If you ever manage to have a drink with him, get him drunk enough so that maybe he'll reveal how he manages to sleep at night knowing that about 5,000 American service-people are dead -- and tens of thousands more paralyzed, etc. -- based on his lies that led to that b.s. war in Iraq.

I definately will. Right after I've dared him to strip to the waist and run through the streets singing I Am The Walrus.

Yeah, but don't stand too close to him when you're out have to be careful of the flying shoes
And you could ask him if he's remembered where he put the memo stating that Osama BL was going to attack the US using planes as weapons. He seems to have misplaced it -
New study says mittens tax plan will cut taxes for the richest 5% but increase taxes for the rest of the 95%. In other words a reverse Robin Hood plan. Steal from the poor to give more to the rich
http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/study-romney-tax-plan-would-result-in-cuts-for-rich-higher-burden-for-others/2012/08/01/gJQAbeCCOX_story.html So mittens supporters you will be voting to increase your own taxes (unless you are in top 5%) to give more money to the richest. Real smart -

Very cool There is a new tax calculator that can help you compare your taxes under both President Obama & mittens here it is
I save money under Obama's plan do you : -
Cantor secretly exempts spouses from insider trading law: "{Senator) Eric Cantor was caught by CNN gutting a bill that would have stopped elected officials from insider trading on congressional knowledge. He secretly made spouses and children exempt from reporting requirements. What was his motive? Could he be hiding his wife's role as a partner in a hedge fund management firm with assets in the Cayman Islands?" http://www.cancantor.com/

Obama's winning. Period. http://core.talkingpointsmemo.com/election/scoreboard Can't see this changing too much in the time we have left. And mittens still has to get through the debates

That's what the GOP gets for practically handing over the nomination to a candidate that they truly don't believe in. I don't want Obama to just beat Romney: I want him to CREAM him.

Nobody knows what mittens believes in If they got someone who would go around sprouting off what the republicans really believe in it would be so much worse for them

The Problem Remains & Persists The Lack Of Obama Jokes. What's the matter?? Isn't it time for Libs and/or anyone to lighen up? I challenge anyone to post some really funny Obama jokes. Make up some of your own. There's no shortage of Republican jokes. And it's certainly not true that Obama has not made an a** of himself on a number of occasions. One said, "Needless to say, it's a tricky issue. But going back to your original question of where are the Obama jokes, the short answer is this: Because of the U.S.'s still-murky issues with race, for many people, President Obama's defining characteristic remains the color of his skin. Where Clinton was the philanderer and Bush was the dolt, Obama is the black guy." Fear certainly of one going overboard because of offense and/or race is certainly a possibility. However, if it were not for a large portion of "white" voters for Obama, it's quite likely he never would not have been elected in the first place. There's just something very unfunny about the lack of Obama jokes. One does not need to touch race in order to be funny. I did not mention or even think about First Lady jokes - not that I approve - but, if people 30 years ago told Nancy Reagan jokes and that wasn't met with liberal anger then - how can anyone expect any First Lady since to be "exempt" from humor? Years ago fear of the "establishment" led to jokes about those in leadership. I'm afraid the current Presidential Administration had become the "establishment" of 40 or less years ago. And that's not too funny because it's too true! What's not funny about someone stuck on or in love with a "teleprompter"? What's not funny about someone so cool - no one dare tell a joke about it? No one has ever told jokes about anyone "cool"? NOT!!! What's not funny about hearing a comedian use speech patterns of past Presidents? Why not the same with Obama? There's nothing racial about that. What's not funny about the President's handlers trying to stop humor about their boss? Wouldn't that be a good skit on SNL? Did you hear the one about Obama? Nobama, Nojoya, Nofunna ...

Chill out, Andy. You quoted me, but you missed the part where I said I'd laugh at any joke if it's truly funny, regardless of whether it's a Democrat or a Republican being zinged. If it's a clever teleprompter joke, I'll laugh at it. Just as Republicans chafed at allusions to President Bush being an ignorant cowboy, I'll disagree with the point, but I'll still laugh at the joke. I also ceded that some liberals get too protective of the president and should lighten up, but it's not nearly as prevalent, to my eyes, as conservatives who use 'It's all in good humor' as an excuse to make racist jokes. Also, I didn't say that the First Lady's should be exempt from humor. They are as fair game as their husband's are. I just think there's a difference between making a good joke at the expense of Michelle Obama and "humorously" implying that she has an insatiable hunger for baby back ribs. Find me a good joke about the president's name and I'll laugh at it. But thinking all jokes of the type are fair game creates an environment in which a certain conservative radio-show host plays a song entitled "Barack the Magic Negro" multiple times for his large audience and does so in the name of "satire." Why should the onus be on us liberals to find you suitable Obama jokes? Maybe if you could show us examples of conservative-slanted humor at the expense of the president that doesn't rely on stereotypes, we might be less "defensive" of the man.
