But WTH—gotta go with yer strengths!

The man who has run nothing more demanding than the Harvard Law Review is beginning to look out of his depth in the world’s top job. His credibility is seeping away, and it will require concrete achievements rather than more soaring oratory to recover it.

DESPITE PRESIDENT OBAMA’S GOOD INTENTIONS, HIS DEVIATIONS FROM TRUTH-TELLING COMPROMISE HIS CREDIBILITY.

... it would be unrealistic to expect complete candor from any president about the costs and risks of extending health insurance to 30 million more Americans. If Obama can meet the truthfulness test applied by Huckleberry Finn to his creator Mark Twain—“There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth”—that would be good enough for me.

Sorry—not “good enough” for me.

Heart Break Mashed

“The main reason I’m here,” Obama said as he eased into his chair, “… I want to see that heart-shaped potato.”

... and he slipped it into his suit pocket.

...“We were afraid he might just toss it,”

From comments on this ...nooz story:

I agree it FEELS like Obama has left his progressive base and swung way right :(

...The shameful truth is that - a tiny 20% of white older religious fanatics(with usually a high school education tops) have high jacked the US Political system.

Which is why this is a ...nooz story.

Stepperg and Cuchieddie lost their sweet Velcro today.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez obliquely praised President Obama Thursday in an address to the U.N., saying he has replaced the “smell of sulfur” at the world body with the “smell of hope.”

“It doesn’t smell of sulfur here anymore,” Chavez said in a clear allusion to an earlier insult he foisted on former President George W. Bush from the same podium three years earlier.

”It smells of something else. It smells of hope,” he said, referencing Obama’s presidential campaign.

Michelle even described her husband’s election to the Senate in their home state of Illinois as a ‘costly waste of time’ - when he could be earning ‘real money’ at a major law firm. At the time, she insisted, they were ‘as poor as church mice’, and she was ‘one very unhappy mouse’.

But… But…

“See, that’s why I left a job at a big law firm for a career in public service.”

He was, his wife maintains, not just ‘a fool’ but ‘a lazy fool’.

...Simply because they allow a woman the right to control her own body and reproductive system, simply because they are willing to follow the federal law, does NOT mean they favor abortion.
*I* am against abortion and hate the thought of it happening, but do support a woman’s right to decide that issue. There is a BIG difference. Like if a person, for whatever reason, supported the GOP yet still “allowed” someone else to vote for a candidate from a different party.

So if you were a Republican and voted for Obama it’s as if you had an abortion.

I don’t often have a reason to travel on Legion Way near the Planned Parenthood offices, but I drove by recently while anti-choice protesters were there with their graphic displays.

Now, I believe that no one really is in favor of abortion. Those of us who favor reproductive freedom and choice for women are supporting access to safe and legal abortion instead of the way it used to be: back-alley and illegal.

Ironically for the protesters, after passing them, I turned my car around, marched right into the Planned Parenthood office and gave them a big fat donation check.

If every other person who supports a woman’s right to choose will do the same, the anti-choice protesters will have had a positive effect on reproductive freedom for all.

I love that!

Doesn’t the sight of a shredded baby SCREAM philanthrophy to everyone?

Head-to-head with Obama, she’s steady from last month: He led her 52/38 in August and leads 53/38 now. But her favorables are in the toilet, dropping from 47/45 in July to 40/49 in August to … 37/55. The positive spin for Palin fans, I guess, is that the less the public sees of her, the worse she seems to do…

If that’s the case then we have to acknowledge Obama’s media blitz that had him on every talk show except the cooking channel (maybe they’re saving that one for Michelle ) and a major address to the UN then…

The left has virtually shit all over the one positive aspect I was once able to find in the Obama presidency....that after 8 years of BDS they’d finally STFU, but no. PDS is alive, well and thriving.

I can almost see myself finally being able to give up most of my coffee with this.

well if you look at it that way…

Can you guess which piece of government-funded art your tax dollars paid for? No cheating by peeking in history books!

This undated photo released Thursday, Sept. 24, 2009 by the Illinois Department of Corrections shows Michael C. Finton. Finton, 29, also known as Talib Islam, was arrested Wednesday, Sept. 23, 2009 and charged in a criminal complaint with one count of attempting to murder federal officers or employees after attempting to detonate what he thought was a bomb inside a van outside a federal courthouse.

CHICAGO – A man who idolized American born Taliban soldier John Walker Lindh and a Jordanian national who frequented extremist Web sites are charged in unrelated cases after attempting to detonate what they thought were bombs outside an Illinois courthouse and a Texas skyscraper, federal officials said.

Federal officials said Thursday that the cases are not connected to each other or the major terrorism investigation under way in Colorado and New York.

‘twern’t lookin’ like none of them a-rabs.........

Close the book.

...you ask the twenty-somethings what hip thing they’re going to do this week end and the tell you they’re having a retro 80’s party. And you own enough original music
( casset tapes too, even ) to make them a disc of enough songs for a 6 hour party. The good stuff that most of these little wanna be’s never even heard of because they weren’t cool back then. Crap, they weren’t even born yet. Sigh.....
The music for my cardio classes are all “dance re-mixes” of the originals I used to dance to in nightclubs.

We’ve discovered the common factor in all of Obama’s supporters, heroes, and associates.
They’re insane.

Honduras’ fallen leader told The Miami Herald he is being subjected to mind-altering gas and radiation—and that `Israeli mercenaries’ are planning to assassinate him.
