And we he did, people like you were all over him for it. Aww, what's the matter, can't take it?

 More petty vulgarities from the right... right wing loonies still go nuts over Al Gore "inventing the internet"... he misspoke... Barack Obama has a Harvard degree and knows how many states there are... you sir, are nothing more than a partisan republican hack who loves to plan partisan peekaboo gotcha games... I will take "What bitter sore loser republicans say for $1000"... thanks, Alex...

One of my best friends has always said never to let politics come between us, right up to the point where his beliefs are under fire. Just kidding. He is a union card carrying, life long democrat. I am not.

And you sir among other things are a one trick pony. Gee, how many more times in this thread are you going to repeat that "What bitter sore loser republicans say" snark?

As a "political hack", I feel obligated to toast our Gerald Ford wannabe:

Umm.. You are aware that their is a difference between the President and the Speaker?  Also I would like to point out that million is actually a word.  So you have to give her credit for not completely making up words.  Like Millijob drop or Milliployment decrease.

Umm. Since "thousand" is also a word, I will give Obama credit for the 10,000 people killed in Kansas tornado gem:

As for completely made up words, how are those Penn State "Nittaly" Lions doing?

The point I am making is the double standard applied to dems when they gaffe it up. Heck, Biden screws up all the time and the press treat it like "oh, that's just Joe!"

Fair enough.

However, Obama graduated with honors and has proven himself to be a smart guy. So any slip of the tongue is pretty much that and nothing else. People will cut him slack because he's demonstrably intelligent.

But President Bush was well-established as a below-average student, intellectually incurious and 20-year substance abuser to boot. So when he slips up, you can plausibly cite that as him being a meathead or, worse, brain-damaged from all the drugs and booze he gobbled for decades.

One is not the same as the other.

By that logic, I guess Obama's banging his head on the helicopter door today and trying to enter the white house through a window a few weeks ago was a result of his cocaine and marijuana use.

C'mon, guido, you're smarter than that. You're not even trying.

By all accounts, Obama's drug usage lasted all of six months and was described as "dabbling." Heck, even close friends were shocked by this revelation ("I didn't know he was using"). Such short-term, minor drug usage will cause minimal brain damage, if at all. And he straightened himself up quickly and graduated with honors from Harvard.

Meanwhile, George W. Bush by his own admission was an alcoholic until at least age 40. The stories abound of him abusing narcotics for years. You cannot reasonably expect that such substance abuse wouldn't have long-term psychological and physical effects on the brain. Such problems are well-established by medical studies.

Add in that Bush was below-average intelligence compared to Obama's demonstrably above-average intelligence, and you figure out why people might think a slip of the tongue by Bush is a lot more than just a simple mistake.

That was one of my concerns when Bush was elected in 2000 -- that because of his long-term substance abuse and his mediocre intelligence, he wouldn't be up for the job.

Maybe Bush wasn't worn out at this point in his Presidency because they had cocaine free flowing around the whitehouse?

we vs us

Damn.  I think I'm on the ignore list, too.

Actually, it's kinda nice.  Feels a little like an ad-hominem free zone now.

But I contend it's juvenile.  Same as putting your fingers in your ear and yelling 'nananananana I can't hear you nanananana'.

The problem with cr*p like this is that Republicans are like sharks.  They never sleep.  They will stay on message and shovel this garbage until we are so tired of the garbage that we begin to associate it with Obama.

That's what pmcalk was referring to when she would talk about the Clintons' luggage.  It's not their luggage, it's Republican luggage that through repetition becomes associated with its target.

I say Obama surrogates need to stay in campaign mode and shovel back load after load of cr*p to deflect attacks on our president.  Forget about playing fair.  Let's bury the Republicans.  Let's see if we can finish them off.
