« on: September 08, 2011, 07:20:02 PM »
it drives me nuts.  just let the president speak.  i don't care if i agree with what he is saying or not, for a fifteen minute speech to take an hour because of the freakin applause drives me nuts!  (oh, and if he says "you should pass it right away" one more time i might be sick.)
make the world idiot proof.....and you will have a world full of idiots. -g2

Quote from: Obama
What kind of country would this be if this Chamber had voted down Social Security or Medicare just because it violated some rigid idea about what government could or could not do? How many Americans would have suffered as a result?

The limerick, peculiar to English,
Is a verse form that's hard to extinguish,
Once congress, in session,
Decreed it's suppression,
But people got around it by writing the last line without any rhyme or meter.

And the man claims to be a Constitutional scholar?!?  A professor of Constitutional law?!?  A respected, respectable, and knowledgeable instructor who respects and understands the Constitution?!?

Someone oughta combine the tinyurl quote above with his FactCheck.org page on the whole Constitutional scholar thing from back in 2008 (http://www.factcheck.org/2008/03/obama-a-constitutional-law-professor/ - in whichthere's an 07 statement where he breathtakingly and blatantly lies by claiming that "unlike the current president I actually respect the Constitution.") and ask him if he was lying then, or if he's lying now. :facepalm:
