Is there a pool on The Precedent’s breakdown? I think he’ll be found naked, hiding up one of the cherry trees on the mall, with the dog in tow, chain-smoking Newports Virginia Slims.

Well, perhaps wwe should hold da Prezbo to the same standards .. ie. “I am the president (thanks to tons of illegal campaign contributions, help from georgie soros, fraudulent votes from acorn and an abyssmally stupid and ignorant bunch of american voters)

What’s that crap argument about how, if private insurance is so great, government insurance would put them out of business? If you put a FREE GOVERNMENT DONUTS shop next to a Dunkin’ Donuts, Dunkin’ is going to go out of business, no matter how bad the gub’mint donuts or how good the Dunkin’ donuts are.
The point of his federal healthcare is to put government in control of another aspect of people’s lives, which is the goal of any socialist dictator.

We were just in Italy and needed some medical attention. I asked the doc about how we were able to get seen so fast. We were in a private hospital. It wasn’t all that expensive. However, he said that it would take six months to be seen for the same thing in the public healthcare system even though the situation was serious.

If obama shoves his communist healthcare down our throats, then lots of people will end up dying.

The only people who will have decent health care will be the democratic party apparatchics and their friends like Billy Bomber Ayers

They are running on instinct and adrenalin. Foresight requires contemplation.

How is it that Obama was a genius yesterday for not condemning Iranian brutality and tomorrow he’ll be heralded as a genius for condemning it today?

He either didn’t understand what his plan meant or he understood perfectly and hoped no one else did.

I’m going to say….it’s the latter….

“I am the President.” Heh. My narcissistic mother used to say, “I am the mother” in just the same tone. Really? Then act like it.

When “the” mother says that, it isn’t narcissistic…it’s a freakin’ warning.

July 4 Atlanta Tea Party Cancelled

IrishEi on June 23, 2009 at 10:35 PM
So now all conservative event organizers need to check the political affiliation of those it deals with.

Wonderful.

csdeven on June 24, 2009 at 12:21 AM

Not completely cancelled…the one that was planned in Gwinnett is joining with Cobb.

http://www.atlantateaparty.net/

Dooley stated, “The most important thing to do at this point is to stay on message, so we are joining forces with the Cobb for a large metro-area Tea Party on Friday, July 3rd, at 6 PM. The event is at Jim Miller Park at 2245 Callaway Road in Marietta. For information on the event, contact Cobb organizer Ben Mihalski at 770-726-7188, or visit http://www.cobbteaparty.com/ .”

If you are not in the Metro Atlanta area, then please attend a Tea party near you. For more information, please visit http://www.teapartypatriots.org/

Thompson added, “The Atlanta Tea Party has a great team and is already planning for the July 17th Tea Party Patriots Protests at Congressional offices all across Georgia over nationalized healthcare. We will work hard to make sure our voices are heard and our message is clear.”

In his defense, he has a right to be testy:

He has no right to be testy. Management 101… you take the land, you get the indians.

There’s a certain poetic justice when the former bomb thrower finds himself in the glare of the klieg lights fending off the assaults he would have taken pleasure in delivering just a few short months ago.

Secondly, of course a public insurance plan will break the insurance companies. It’ll break me personally! Not only will I get to pay for my health insurance but, my neighbors as well. What a jerk.

It’s a nice thought, but I don’t think I can agree with you on this. The state-run media is so heavily invested in “teh One” that they would have to deny their core belief structure to turn on him. He represents everything they hold dear even if he is a slimey, incompetent POS. He is their slimey, incompetent POS. As for “real” journalists, how many of those are in evidence; two, three?
I will be very happy if you are proven correct but my expectation of the media is so low it’s just hard to imagine the outcome you envision.
