Bama Bashers Upset That He Observes Foreign Customs

So all those other world leaders– you know, the ones who did NOT bow– are poorly mannered?

The man is an utter dufus.

Van Jones Resigns; Who Will They Go After Next?

Eric. You make very little sense. I’m really trying here. Why not spend less time putting asterisks in your naughty words and more time trying to maintain a narrative.

My question was (and it was in there): where has freedom been compromised? You said it in your previous post (”I have no tolerance for your hatred for freedom right now”). What did I say in my comment about Google that leads you to believe I hate freedom? Please be specific, and assumptions about what you may think I believe don’t count.

And while we’re on that topic, what have I said that indicates I “listen[ing] to the crud if it effects you so much that you buy everything they say.”

Look at my words, Eric. I know it’s hard with the white hot rage clouding your vision, but look at the words. Where did I parrot something someone else said? Try to avoid the vague generalities that clog your previous post.

It’s richly ironic that you babble about truth, Eric, because it seems you can’t handle it. You’re frustrated that someone actually dug it up on Van Jones. No one put words in his mouth. They merely played what he said. Over and over and over again.

Try this on.

If people really didn’t care that Van Jones’ actions and comments were frightening for someone working in a czar position, he’d still be working.

He’s out of work because Obama knows that what he said and did are incongruous with most Americans’ values. Probably Obama’s too.

The greatest thing that Obama can do right now is remember why he was elected: because he was not George Bush. Not because Americans wanted a progressive revolution. But because they were tired of staring at an arrogant Republican who struggled to string a couple sentences together.

So for the people shocked that Van Jones is no longer employed tonight, I can only shake my head and wonder, what exactly did you think Obama’s election victory meant?

Are you learning?

What parallel universe do you live in?

Do you think for a second that if Obama felt Van Jones was worthy of a defense– that he was even remotely salvagable– he wouldn’t do it? Your savior– Obama– threw him under the bus because he knew most Americans shared zero in terms of philsophy with Van Jones.

Van Jones made his own bed.

Uh, yeah, I know Czars aren’t new. 30 of them is a new concept though. While that number might be subject to debate, even Reuters says there are at least 21. 8 months in to his administration. See a trend?

You’re sputtering, Eric (notice my proper use of “you’re”). And as much as I’d love to continue to push your buttons, a question comes to mind.

Please tell me what freedoms have been abridged by the publicizing of Van Jones’ past statements. It’s actually a celebration of freedom– freedom of the press. And then, of course, freedom to resign when your ass is exposed.

Even you know there’s a reason Obama is appointing Czars at breakneck speed– he and Rahm know that they would never stand up under Congressional scrutiny– Republican or Democrat.

Spare me the blathering, and try to come up with something concrete.

What makes Van Jones’ political death even sweeter is the use of Google– the blatantly anti-American and likely Jones’ supporter– to bring him down.

Wonder what special logo treatment Google will use tomorrow…

Tim Rutten: We're Teaching Kids Paranoia By Boycotting Pres Speech

The result of the uproar is that Obama is going to have to stick to a speech about staying in school.

It remains to be seen if that was the original intent.

Hmmm…what was the Pro-Reform guy doing in the anti-reform group? Other than looking for ways to satisfy his insatiable desire for human flesh?

Elizabeth Edwards: "I Cried And Screamed, I Went To The Bathroom And Threw Up"

Oh Lord, so much to choose from.

“Elizabeth Edwards went to the bathroom and threw up.”

Only if she’d just eaten something that disagreed with her. Elizabeth Edwards claiming to be shocked by her husband’s affair is as plausible as Hillary Clinton telling us she was surprised by the Monica Lewinsky revelations.

“Elizabeth Edwards has a remarkable ability to forgive. And, in John Edwards, America lost a potentially wonderful public servant.”

I’ve never seen two gobsmackingly dumb statements sandwiched together. Edwards feigns forgiveness to write a book. And the only thing America lost was a plastic, self-absorbed charlatan who nearly pulled one over on us.

Why Wasn't The Public Warned?

Boy, Robert, you’ve managed to blame Dick Cheney and reveal the full bloom of your idiocy all in one post. Well done, laddie.

The One didn’t bow. He was just temporarily unbalanced by the weight of the universe’s problems.

Binghamton Gunman Felt "Degraded And Disrespected"

Where would liberals be without the comfort of equivocation? You guys would be contemplating your navels and debating nuance while the world fell down around you. And you are completely incapable of seeing it.

Binghamton Gunman Felt "Degraded And Disrespected"

Why does there always have to be a “but” with you, Alan? Why can’t it just be inexcusable without there being some implied excuse for his horrid behavior? The translation, for those of you who need it:

“Yeah, murder is pretty bad, but you try and be an immigrant in this gun-loving, intolerant country without wanting to shoot a few people from time to time.”
