It's usually for one of two reasons: In the vain hope that this guy will be different than the last dozen or so members of his party, or to drink the sweet, sweet tears of the other guy. Just ask Gas! He's lived for hundreds of years, his heart long since turned into a perfect, glittering gem of pure hatred, and managed to do it by supping on the sorrow and shattered dreams of liberals from each age.I'm starting to wonder if it mattered that we elected Obama instead of McCain.
I think the problem stems from Obama being perfectly willing to leave Bush's mistakes in place while he adds blunders of his own. How's that patriot act repeal going? Gitmo still open too?

But, according to republicans, he's supposed to have single-handedly cured cancer, solved world hunger, and invented an intersettler propulsion system within three months of being president. In a year and half, he should have figured out a way to convert the entire human race into super-sentient energy beings. WTF Obama.If that thing is true, he's on the right track.

That's the burden of the Commander in Chief. He's the dude in charge now. He needs to take on the yoke of responsibility. It doesn't matter who spilled the milk. Whoever is in charge, needs to be about cleaning it up, instead of pointing fingers. I think Obama would be better off not mentioning Bush anymore. Everyone knows why we're in this mess. Obama should shoulder the responsibility and give it his best shot. If he doesn't fix it, at least he tried. It's going to take a decade (at least) to fix some of this stuff.sadly, I think the "public" has a short term memory. I been reading that now they are blaming the whole Iraq/Afgan war on Obama's fault and not Bush.
The oil spill is Obama's fault
Saving Banks and wasting tax payers is ALL Obama's fault. (well partly he did approve the 2nd half right?)

Life would be easier if everything was just under the control of one party. I mean, as long as it's the party you like that is... if not then RABBLERABBLERABBLERABBLE!Oh that's right, Democrats needed the Republican vote to get it passed, that's why they worked closely with Republicans to ensure that Republican concerns were met. I forgot about that.

No, Obamacare is the way it is now because not every democrat was drinking so much of the kool-aid.And you do realize that Obama care is the way it is because of republican opposition right?
Really? I've never heard of that!I hate to break it to ya, that's called compromise.
Getting there with the push and kick in the ass with healthcare reform. Also his VP isn't a complete dumbass.There's something that I'm actually curious about.
For those of you who voted for Obama: Think back. When you were at the ballot voting for the guy, what specifically were you hoping for him to accomplish at the time? Try to be honest -- what was on your mind at the time as the reason you wanted this man to be president instead of McCain?
After remembering that, would you say he's fulfilled your expectations?
His embarrasing public mistakes are so numerous they have to make "Top 10 Biden Gaffe" lists. He's been the best Vice Presidential Joke Factory since Dan Quayle.Also his VP isn't a complete dumbass.

I'm pretty sure he was talking about, as compared to McCain's veep nominee, Sarah Palin.I've never heard anyone refer to Cheney as a "dumbass". Maybe evil overlord, mastermind, etc, but dumbass? Compared to Biden? I need some of whatever you are smoking Chaz.

WHAT??The oil spill is Obama's fault
Some of those quotes were objectionable, some of those quotes later were shown to be wrong... but few of them were outright as stupid as telling Chuck Graham to stand up or talking about how Obama is the first clean and articulate African American.

He is starting to fulfill a lot, certainly I feel he has made our country look more like a world player than an egotistical bully. Although he hasn't even served half of his term, he still has lots of time to get going on stuff.There's something that I'm actually curious about.

If that is the only thing Bush had done wrong, we'd be much better off. However, it is also true that he at least knew what the job of Vice President was and what the responsibilities were before accepting the offer to be a candidates running mate. That puts him much further ahead in the "not a dumbass" department than a certain former Governor.Also his VP isn't a complete dumbass.
If he'd said it later, without a live mic on his lapel and not in front of 10 TV cameras and the entire Washington Press Corps, you'd have a point there. That he did so is why it is funny and stupid.They are both stupid sets of quotes, how is "This is a big fucking deal" irrational, strange, or stupid in referring to passing the long fought health care legislation.
Because Watergate was the first scandal of its magnitude, and the nature of the english language is to associate similar things with similar names. -Gate is a handy suffix that attaches easily to most other words. Does it get overused? Yes. Does that invalidate it? Not really.Also -gate is the dumbest thing ever, it was Watergate because that was the name of the damn building that the shit occurred in. So why would it make any sense to add half of the name of a building to incidents that have nothing to do with that.
He personally championed it, made it his driving issue for months, and signed his name to it. Without Obama, there likely would not have been Obamacare.Also it really negates a argument when you use obamacare, I am sorry I didn't realize that he by himself created and passed the entire legislation. It works both way with republican things too.
As it's usually the mainstream media that's first to jump on the -gate bandwagon, I'd say we pretty much already know.And then we'll know they are the stupidest people on the planet.

Uhh, maybe Gitmo is still open because the government can't just dump terrorists on the street.I think the problem stems from Obama being perfectly willing to leave Bush's mistakes in place while he adds blunders of his own. How's that patriot act repeal going? Gitmo still open too?
