Obama's Speech

Obama's Speech
« on: September 11, 2013, 09:29:58 AM »
Missed it.  Was reading about football instead. 

But for those that saw it or have read about it, would you say this is accurate:

Quote
Krauthammer said, “That’s what makes this one of the most odd presidential speeches ever delivered. Here’s a president who urgingly addresses the nation on all channels to call for a pause in something that the nation does not want to do in the first place. This is almost unbelievable.”

Also, I've read that Obama's reasoning for wanting to bomb Syria and even his explanations sound almost identical to Bush's reasoning and explanations for the Iraq War.

He's getting some real shitty advice on how to handle this thing.  He could have come out of this looking like the noble warrior who was held back from "doing the right thing".  Instead, he seems to be changing his stance hour by hour. 

Gassing tons of people is an atrocity.  You lead the charge in taking your case to the UN.  If they don't back you when it happened in their own back yard, at least you tried and told the world you were prepared to step in.  Don't go rogue and say we'll do it ourselves...no we won't...wait...yes we will....okay, everyone chill out.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Hard to get good advice from a bunch of liberal, pacifist, academics that he surrounds himself with

That too.

Plus, would dropping a bunch of bombs on Syria not cause a negative effect on the global climate.  Them bombs are hot as hell.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

I sing on this AM to "Obamao makes compelling case on Syria".

And I think to myself, "Compelling. Compelling to who? Some damn moron liberal with an IQ under 70?"

Nixon was impeached for way less incompetency!

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
