  • Yep. But libs here won't believe any of us.

    Nope. They think the world agrees with them, that he has a magic twanger that will instantly

    make all of life perfect utopia.

    yeah. Kinda like really on another planet, yes?

    The BARK has nearly COMPLETELY fallen off the ugly Obamao tree.

    Bank on it. It's true.

    Even America's liberal elites concede that Obama's Presidency is crumbling

    By Nile Gardiner World Last updated: September 8th, 2010Democrats in Congress are no longer asking themselves whether this is going to be a bad election year for them and their party. They are asking whether it is going to be a disaster. The GOP pushed deep into Democratic-held territory over the summer, to the point where the party is well within range of picking up the 39 seats it would need to take control of the House. Overall, as many as 80 House seats could be at risk, and fewer than a dozen of these are held by Republicans.

    Political handicappers now say it is conceivable that the Republicans could also win the 10 seats they need to take back the Senate. Not since 1930 has the House changed hands without the Senate following suit.

    Is this a piece from National Review, The Weekly Standard, The Wall Street Journal or Fox News.com, all major conservative news outlets in the United States? No. It’s a direct quote from yesterday’s Washington Post, usually viewed by conservatives as a flagship of the liberal establishment inside the Beltway. The fact The Post is reporting that not only could Republicans sweep the House of Representatives this November, but may even take the Senate as well, is a reflection of just how far the mainstream, overwhelmingly left-of-centre US media has moved in the last month towards acknowledging the scale of the crisis facing the White House.

    To its credit, The Washington Post has generally been ahead of the curve compared to its main competitors such as The New York Times in reporting President Obama’s travails, but its striking front page coverage of the “Democrats’ plight” and talk of a possible GOP Senate win (regarded as fantasy just a fortnight ago) was a bold step for a publication that is probably read in every office of the Obama administration.

    The Post also ran another headline yesterday on its front page – “Republicans making gains ahead of midterm elections” – which would undoubtedly have sent a shudder through the White House. It carried a new poll commissioned jointly with ABC News, which showed public faith in Barack Obama’s leadership has fallen to an all-time low, with just 46 percent approval. The Washington Post-ABC News survey revealed high levels of public unease with President Obama’s handling of the economy, with 57 percent of Americans disapproving, and 58 percent critical of his handling of the deficit.

    For most of the year, America’s political and media elites, including the Obama team itself, have touted the notion of an economic recovery (which never materialised), significantly underestimated the rise of the Tea Party movement, and questioned the notion that conservatism was sweeping America. It is only now hitting home just how close Washington is to experiencing a political revolution in November that will fundamentally change the political landscape on Capitol Hill, with huge implications for the Obama presidency. What was once a perspective confined largely to Fox News, online conservative news sites, or talk radio is now gaining ground in the liberal US print media as well – historic change is coming to America, though not quite the version promised by Barack Obama.

    lol

    You can't piece together a intelligent thought regarding the Browns but you're over here starting Political threads. I didn't realize this forum existed. 24 hour comedy show around here.

    EDIT: I did a quick scroll through the thread starters in this lovely forum and I have one word. Scary. The resident dip shits from the Browns board lead political discussions?

  • It's always fun to hear from people who stumble on to this board and think, "Good mother of God..."

    I guess the rest of us are immune to its insanity by now.

    I won't be returning to this section of the board often. I read through a few threads and threw up in my mouth a little. I guess at the very least the absolutely ridiculous delusions here help explain the delusions on the Browns section of the board. It's the same group of clowns making asses out of themselves and I guess in that regard it's a little refreshing because it proves they are ridiculous individuals period, not just ridiculous as far as the NFL is concerned.

  • Great.

    Niether one of you, Heck and Homo, have contributed any threads at all.

    Like I said. It makes you feel like a man to always sit on the sidelines,

    and attack others, instead of offering up your own thoughts?

    Oh, that's right. You haven't any of your own thoughts to offer up.

  • Sorry, fellas. This used to have some interesting people on it, but they all ran for the same reasons you're throwing up in your mouth a little.

  • What makes me throw up in my mouth is listening to Obama's speech today. It was all about taxing evil people who earned profits for applying themselves. This might work in front of the welfare crowd, but his reasons dont hold water. He wants to nationalize and control every aspect of our being until we are no longer free as people. He is a Commi!

  • I laughed at the part where he said that he believed in free enterprise, and the entreprenaurial spirt.... LOL, ROF,L !

    He is desperately trying to sound like Reagan, or John Kennedy all of a sudden.

    Won't work. Wait til Nov. Obamao can't undo what's been done. He is found out to be a little marxist college

    man with no idea on how to run anything, ESPECIALLY an entire country.

    He's a disaster, and the libs are conceding that fact. Well, not the libs around here... yet... @@

  • Currently going through a career change alllows me to meet with a variety of small business owner and I can tell you the majority are circling the wagons. There is a palpable sense of doom regarding the

    economy with most conceding that another recession (have we pulled out from the current) is not a matter of if but when. The complete lack of optimism regarding the retrurn of a vibrant econmy under Obama

    is scary.

  • Gosh. I've been working too hard to have time to post, but it looks like Obama has had plenty of time to ruin our economy.

  • After the family business closed, I purchased the business and have started back up in a new location. I could use sone help, but I have decided to go it alone for a while out of the risk and responsibility of hiring new employees. This theme of screwing over those who can and want to work that has come from Obama, Hillary and the rest of those marxists and Commis has stifled the economy, and there are several other small business owners who feel the same. We will remember in November.

    Let's throw the bums out!

  • Say, T, I'll check again with my brother-in-law....

    he never got back to me about his stuff...
