what are barack obama's flaws?

And sentiments like We're All Bob Somerby Now are spreading

I think PRESIDENT: ARE THESE PEOPLE SERIOUS? is my favorite headline.

Like, ever.

"I don't care whether you're driving a hybrid or an SUV -- if you're headed for a cliff, you've got to change direction."

^^^luv this fucking guy

I've been reading somerby for years as well.. the media attack on gore in 2000 is kind of an idee fixe for him, but he's OTM on that, I think.
did you catch MoDo's recent column comparing obama visiting a DC public school while Daschle was being attacked for tax issues to... Bush sitting there in the classroom, dumbfounded, on 9/11? clearly THE SAME THING

the hatchet job the new yorker did on gore in 2000 still gives me the willies

Rumor is he's not very good in the sack. Neither was Sam Cooke apparently. Huh. Imagine that.

Wait...you got a source for that, OHS?

Lucianne Goldberg told him; he recorded the conversation.

Ha ha ha!

Mr. White, words cannot express my delight in what lies at the end of this link. My sorry ass motherfucking ignorance has been cured.

There is something immensely satisfying about it, n'est-ce pas?

Nixon on the WH tapes - now there was a motherfucking asshole. This Obama guy is just... sweet.

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. His 'motherfucker' sounds downright wholesome next to any profanity uttered by Nixon.

NO WORSHIPPERS HEAH, NO SIR

did you promise not to post about obama for the first 90 days?

Oh, c'mon, Morbs! Did you ever expect to hear a President of the U.S. utter the word 'motherfucker' like that?

xpost

Take a listen, Morbs. It's Obama reading aloud from his book about growing up, for a book-on-CD version. He doesn't seem able to make it sound nasty. The timbre of his voice is too gosh-darned good-natured.

he wanted ron paul, who cant say "motherfucker" without a racial slur in front of it

did you promise not to post about obama for the first 90 days?

i promised not to comment on his policies, and must you dive on my dick every time you see I've posted? It's disturbing.

Technically, it's a comment about the Obamaloverfaithful, amirite Morbs?

I saw my first (1.20.13) bumper sticker today.

What did the little voice inside your head say?

Don't look, Barack!

He should stop emailing everybody asking for hits on his Youtube videos but then leaving the videos as 'friends only' so no one can watch them.

He needs to give Joe Biden the correct name for recovery.org

is, by any reasonable standard, a huge fucking liar.

is just another Imperial Manager, most reminiscent of Clinton and Nixon so far.

(welcome to the 101st day)

Dr. Morbius is talking about reasonable standards

x-post -- Not only that, there is not enough melody in his speeches.

one of his flaws i was thinking last night is that he's too perfect and too handsome--it would be nice if he got something wrong so we could criticize him for it

whats the over/under on the number of days until morbius is banned from all politics threads

He has cellulite on the backs of his thighs. I saw it in the Enquirer.

Do we have a hundred days thread proper somewhere?

I mean, I'm aware it's a meaningless retarded benchmark, but I feel I should catch up.

Here's Ms. Magazine's list of womanly accomplishments:

What has he been lying about? I haven't been paying close enough attention, I guess. Mostly I just get all my news from watching PBS and reading this board.

I've been having a hard time figuring out his flaws. Will we really know this early about policy flaws? All I can think of is superficial stuff. "Arrogance", his whole professorial speaking style which can be tedious to listen to sometimes.

Sometimes you can see his political gears grinding his brain to a halt. His answer last night on torture and the Bush administration was totally incoherent because he didn't want to say outright that his predecessor had committed crimes, yet he wanted to signal that he understood that Bush did.

right, morbius -- nixon was "just another imperial manager," no better or worse than any of the others.

He supports charter schools.

His approved federal government budget might get me laid off.

That's just three letters more than something awesome :-(

Isn't he supporting some weird expansion of federal branch powers in court?

MUSTARD! Impeach this unamerican evil dictator NOW, America.

Oh no! Even WORSE! First Lady wears dress more than once SHOCK

why is there any controversy at all about where the Guantanamo detainees should go? I can understand navigating the legal complexities regarding TRYING them (under what charges, with what evidence, etc.) but seriously - Reps/Senators are complaining about sending detainees to prisons in their states? What the fuck is wrong with their prisons that they can't hold violent criminals? Was federal prison not good enough for Timothy McVeigh? Or Manson? Or whoever? I don't get it. Our prisons already house people just as (if not more) dangerous than these guys (including that blind sheikh from the OG WTC bombing), why doesn't the Obama administration just point this out. It is really not that big a deal.

enjoy your FANCY BURGER
