It's hard to imagine someone being a worse public speaker than Bush was.

I think he's got that one locked-up as part of his legacy.

It's easy to imagine the righties trying to get revenge for the criticism of Bush, and latching onto anything to get it. No matter how poor the comparison.

Ah, the dangers of giving shout outs without a teleprompter. Crow is not a Medal of Honor recipient.

Barry the Drunk certainly has turned out to be quite an embarrassment for Americans and Afro-Americans everywhere, hasn't he?
Great post, Gene.

Sending a "shout out" is just more street slang.

Then 2 minutes later after having a little verbal arse kissing session with the attendees he finally gets to the Ft. Hood shooting.
Wow a whole 2 minutes huh? Must have been an eternity for those with pre-school attention span huh?

That's another thing that is not unique to this forum and you'll usually see some of the more extreme "conservative" posters try to pull.

They like to have one-sided "debates" with themselves and their multiple screen names because they can't do it any other way. After all, it's pretty-hard to debate someone when you're usually on the extreme wrong side of the argument.

In the end, they almost always slip-up and expose themselves though.

I've been on a few other forums where the wingnuts always pull the exact same transparent BS.

It's pathetic.

lol

So why not talk about your boy Barry's drug-damaged syntax and buffoonish behavior ... rather than whine and stamp your feet over a chat name on an Internet chat board?

Okay, so Joe Medicine Man did not earn a Medal of Honor by fighting in America's imperialist effort to oppress and subdue other nations.

Nevertheless, this fine Native American and tribal warrior chief should be awarded a Medal of Honor anyway for his fierce and courageous service fighting in the trenches of America to advocate for civil rights for minorities, native Americans in particular.

Gracias

While you are "wishing" for your Hope and Change ... perhaps you can "wish" that your boy Barry Obama is also given the Medal of Honor for fighting so valiantly -- giving it his best shot -- against President Reagan's War on Drugs?
