Political Hippo Circle Jerk - America, farg YEAH!

And Obama has done nothing to warrant being mentioned with two of the recognized best presidents in American history.

I never saw that one coming. As if that were my implication.

Then what was your implication, since you decided to write the line?

After all, George Bush is a politican as well.  So was Bill Clinton, and every other damn president we've had.  Yet you had to immediately go to the two presidents that historians consistently rank as the top two or three (along with Washington) in defense of the O-mighty Obama.

Heck, you're taking your worship of all things Obama past the point of nausea.  And I like the guy.

Then what was your implication, since you decided to write the line?

To simply point out that all presidents are politicians, even our most highly revered ones.

Hey. Does anybody remember way back when, like a couple months ago, when the Right Wing was all up in arms about the DHS report that put out a warning about attacks from right wing extremists?

I also appreciate these statistics...

That doesn't give Obama a free pass on everything.

Yeah, that's totally what I'm saying too.

[rjs246]

Right. Neither you are ATV are actually saying anything, just defending absurd levels of Obama worship using out-of-leftfield logic that doesn't have anything to do with anything I said. Jesus.

you and rjs couldnt have honestly deduced that what he was saying is that obama is a better president than lincoln or roosevelt?...tell me you didnt

tell me you knew he was saying that even our greatest presidents were also politicians

tell me you dont think even barrys biggest supporters think in 120 days hes become a better president than someone who freed the slaves or led the country thru the great depression and wwII


TELL ME!!

[rjs246]

You're giving ATV an awful lot of credit given his statements on this board.

[rjs246]

Salient.

Again, I like Obama, but can we see a little more intelligent debate around him instead of leftist adoration and rightist panic? Please? No? Fine. Buttholes.

[ice grillin you]

i just hope he makes it thru a term and doesnt end up like that doctor in kansas

with all the code words from people like rush that "he has to be stopped"  "hes a target"  "he must not succeed" i am a little worried

[rjs246]

You're worried and I'm worried and rightly so. Whackjobs farging everywhere.

Don't paint me into the "absurd levels of Obama worship" landscape, cockbreath.

You said "Obama more than most politicians has a following of people who think that he can do no wrong," and I responded on point.  He's getting plenty of criticism from within his own party, not to mention the opposition.  Unlike his most recent predecessor, Obama has to fend off from both sides.

You can ignore that this is true if it makes you feel better to talk crazy about how popular the president is, but don't pretend I'm not addressing your comments directly, or that I'm thumping Obama's onion all day long.

[rjs246]

[Diomedes]

I'm now officially mad at you for being a fleshpop.  farg you and your salient links.

[rjs246]

That's all I ask. Did we really have to jump through all of those hoops to get here?

[Diomedes]

I'm all about the foreplay, you know that.

If you had asked me this about Dio, or even yourself, I'd definitely see your point.  ATV?  I put nothing past him.  He engages in hyperbole like you, except he means it.
