Obama discovers the words Bush, boycott, and Olympics

[cornermouse]

can all go in the same sentence. (By the way, how many days has it been since Hillary asked Bush to boycott the Olympics?...)

[anonymous171]

1. Is Hillary the front runner?

I personally liked how he sat back and assessed the situation before making a decision.

[cornermouse]

3. Can you say Obama's been straddling the fence?

Of course when you do that your foot better not slip...

[anonymous171]

4. You want another president who makes rash uniformed decisions

and then sticks to their choices in order to look "strong" even though they are wrong?

[Binka]

8. Cornered Rat Is Confused.

The round room is hard to navigate.

[cornermouse]

19. Binka.

Your chubby little face has confusion written all over it.

[cornermouse]

21. I want someone who will not delay the decision until after the

point where action would have done any good. Anyway, how long do you actually need to think when considering whether you want Bush to go to the Olympics as a physical representation of the U.S. and we the people and a reminder of all the trash that he's done?

5. Exactly....Hillary

.....says what ever feels good without regard to thought...She only says what she in her own mind is the popular thing to say.

.........YES Obama takes a pause before he answers a question which my grandpa told me is the sign of a stable educated person.

17. didn't Hillary wait for Pelosi?

Who came out first? Pelosi or Hillary?

[FrenchieCat]

2. Maybe he decided to read the intelligence prior to rushing into

saying something that he might regret. :shrug:

6. what the fuck took him so long?

[Maddy McCall]

9. He was waiting on Hillary to state her beliefs, so he'd have something to mimic.

Typical Obama.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

12. yuppers, Obama in every debate his only answer was "I agree with Sen Clinton"

[anonymous171]

14. They are both democrats after all. They would agree on a lot of things.

But you don't care about that. I forgot.

[Maddy McCall]

15. Yeah, and then he'd restate what she had said.

If he's elected president, he'll wake up on January 20, pop himself on the forehead, and say "What the fuck have I done?!"

LOL.

[sudopod]

16. Remember that time

a million people died in Rwanda and President Clinton didn't say anything till afterward?

What the fuck took him so long?

(we can keep this up all day, lol)

26. stay focused, this thread is about obama

7. Obama: Conflicted Like my Teenage Daughter

Barack Hussein Obama wants to be president.So why does he carry on conflicted and confused like a distraught teenage daughter? Obama can’t come to a conclusion on our contry’s contribution to the communist China summer confab called the 2008 Olympics.Be a man, Barack. Hillary is so much more of a man than this mushy middler. No wonder SNL snarky sketches skewer the simpleton showing Obama calling Hillary at 3 AM for advice.

"I am of two minds about this," obama......maybe one side of his brain could see no way to use the race card and the other side told him he better follow HRC's lead in this....So, this time common sense won out....

11. I liked how you used his middle name. Senator Rodham would be proud.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

27. why does use of his middle name wig you out?

[Neshanic]

10. Baby Obama's first words. He's such a fast pander....uh learner.

[AtomicKitten]

13. Can't decide if its funny or sad that this is an "issue."

I'm going to have to go ahead and say both.

[greyghost]

18. Who cares? No one really...

gives a fuck when they are losing their jobs, homes, and can't keep food on their tables and gas in their cars.

[K Gardner]

20. The statements neither said nor implied the SAME CONCEPTS, but you Hillarites don't read or

comprehend much, do you?

I'd explain the difference, but it'd be a waste of my time.

[cornermouse]

22. I have an idea.

Let's let him go and remind the whole world of his pre-emptive attack on Iraq and subsequent destruction, the insatiable greed and corruption he and his cronies have shown, and the example he has set for the way one person can dismantle the constitutional protections of a free society.

[K Gardner]

23. Errr... that wasn't what was said either. Try remedial reading comprehension.

[cornermouse]

24. Condescension without any comprehension or extrapolation.

Stock in trade for the Obama followers. My comprehension has consistently been tested in the 95 and higher percentile on the national scale. That was a personal attack that was doomed before it was launched.

25. I think he could have been stronger but - Chicago wants Olympics in 2016 and ........

Personally I think Barack was being a little cautious as to how he approached this question. Also whether we like it or not China holds a lot of cards right now. It is going to take a long time to get those strings untied!

28. Actually Chicago wanting the Olympics in 2016

is not something I had thought of and is certainly a possible explanation. That said, I still think he should have stepped out much earlier and without all the caution which takes me to another set of issues that I have with him.
