Your thread title sucks...period

I applaud Obama for this move. It does not overshadow what was done already under his watch.

[SteamWake]

I think he may have posted in the wrong thread... oh wait... :haha:

what he said.

so to summarize, this brings the number of things Obama has done that i personally approve of to...

:yeah:

Now I'm wondering what people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are going to say about it. If Obama puts his support behind ANYTHING, their knee jerk reaction is to rail against it. I want to see what bullcrap they pull out of their butts to lambaste this. Hehe.

To be honest...both Limbaugh and Beck need to go. I do not understand why anyone listens to these two......

I seem to recall 8 years of exactly that sort of behavior, recently, actually. Was just as stupid then.

No, you see, when we do it it's because their guy really truly sucks. When they do it it's just sour grapes because our side is so wonderful.

[CaptainHaplo]

OK seriously... how is this socialism?

There is a big difference between taking from those that dofor themselves to give to those that don't do for themselves - vs honoring a debt to those who do so much more us all...

To equate that to socialism just shows how much some people miss the point of the arguements against socialism.

I am glad to see this done... but I have to ask - what was that 1st thing you approved of????

providing power of attorney / visitation or whatever to the "partners" of same sex coupled wherein one of them is hospitalized

[CaptainHaplo]

There ya go! Thank ya GR - though I still say it didn't go far enough. I do have to say that this move was well done though.

Still don't see why the OP was wanting to relate it to socialism though - unless is was simply another effort at trolling and causing drama.

[Onkel Neal]

Yawn.

Wait.. make it 3, he did pardon that turkey on Thanksgiving dident he?

Wow... I've always wondered what happens to the bird after the tradittional pardon. I guess they live out a long and overfed life then disposed of.

Hows that for a digression :haha:

Probably one of the stupidest thread titles I've ever seen at subsim. It makes me miss that Chinese spammer who was trying to sell us stuff awhile back.
