“I’m just plain sick of his bullsh*t”.
Then you need to learn to play this:

You can organize teams to see which ones get to holler Bullsh*t first and get a free round of drinks.

Communist prick is taking the USA into the toilet and it's by design.

No jobs and plenty of red ink.

This is the Obama blueprint; ruin the economy, and blame the Tea Party and ATM's.

obama poster1
The Architect of Ruin -- Agitation is not leadership!

Americans labor a full 224 days into the year to pay for local, state and federal government spending and regulations.

We have lost 29 days of the calendar year thanks to Obama's overspending and regulatory zeal. Prior to the Obama Administration the Cost Of Government Day had never fallen later than July 21.

And when it comes to a jobs plan, Zer0 will vote present, just as he did in the Illinois legislature 123 times. Lib voters were fooled into believing that experience was not necessary, that Barack Obama was unique and wise. They wanted to believe in what he was selling. They never expected that it was all snake oil.

Countdown until Obama leaves Office: 511 days as of August 27, 2011.

I don’t know why it didn’t get more play, but that pic with Obama in the situation room looking at a monitor with the SEAL team going in to kill Bin Laden was symbolic of his entire presidency.

All of the people were in the room focused on it and he was there in his golf shirt, pulled right off the golf course to get a photo op. He wasn’t even needed and he wasn’t concerned with any of it.

Obama is a Bad The Very Worst President!!!!

obamacare brings RATIONING and DICTATORSHIP (Sebelius, Berwick, the "Independent Payment Advisory Committee" death panel) to our health care system and to America, while drastically RAISING costs!!!!

Via the "Arab Spring" and the Libya war, Soros/obama/Hillary/Samantha Power hand over all of North Africa and most of the Levant to the muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda, and Iran, thus endangering Israel, Europe, America, and the world.

I can go on and on about the evil of Soros/obama, and all their minions, but y'all get the point!!!!

He’s one of the most eloquent presidents that we’ve had during an age when eloquence can reach everywhere <<<

“WHERE DOES THIS COME FROM????????.....He's a half decent reader of a teleprompter at best......a bumbling buffoon speaking on his own....I think that statement is one of the best examples of ..If u repeat a lie often enough....Is is because of his race???”

Some things bear repeating. You nailed it!

This guy is a TERRIBLE speaker. TOTUS or not. He has a halting speech pattern that is above annoying. It's as if he is constantly searching for a thought. (maybe he is).

Off prompter, he stutters and stammers and says things that make no sense or are infantile and or childish. His phony accent when he tries to sound hip (as in hip hop, “not cool”). Pretending he is just one of the “folks”.

His intelligence is often touted as well. He's brilliant, they say. What proof do we have of that? He supposedly went to at least 3 colleges, but what were this genius’ grades?

“Barack Obama has not released transcripts for his grades from Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard Law. He has also not released his SAT and LSAT scores. No explanation has been offered for not releasing them.”

I'll give you two reasons.
1. He never actually went to all three schools
2. His grades and sores SUCK!

He can't show his grades because he is an affirmative action president. He got special treatment because he is Black. “THERE I SAID IT”. Now you can call me a racist.

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek"-- BARACK OBAMA

"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.

The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."

A Landslide Mandate For Change

A breakthrough election
Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!

We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.

The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.

There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.

The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

Change is Here, Change is Coming

Sam Webb, National Chair, Communist Party, USA:

Let me begin with a simple observation: If the last 30 years were an era of reaction, then the coming decade could turn into an era of reform, even radical reform. Six months into the Obama presidency, I would say without hesitation that the landscape, atmosphere, conversation, and agenda have strikingly changed compared to the previous eight years.

In this legislative session, we can envision winning a Medicare-like public option and then going further in the years ahead.

We can visualize passing tough regulatory reforms on the financial industry, which brought the economy to ruin.

We can imagine the troops coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan while U.S. representatives participate in a regional process that brings peace and stability to the entire region.

In the current political climate, the expansion of union rights becomes a real possibility.

Much the same can be said about winning a second stimulus bill, and we sure need one, given the still-rising rate, and likely long term persistence, of unemployment.

Isn’t it possible in the Obama era to create millions of green jobs in manufacturing and other sectors of the economy in tandem with an attack on global warming?

Can’t we envision taking new strides in the long journey for racial and gender equality in this new era, marked at its beginning by the election of the first African American to the presidency?

And isn’t the overhaul of the criminal justice and prison system – a system steeped in racism – no longer pie-in-the sky, but something that can be done in the foreseeable future?

All these things are within reach now!

The author didn’t get around to including Holder’s politicized Justice Department. No prosecutions of “his people”, Gunrunner, etc. Bad, bad President!

"Jonathan Alter seems to be one of the few still genuinely shocked that Obama has lost support.....

The author above should wipe the stardust from his eyes. Jonathan Alter is hard-core Marxist and is educated enough to know that marxism, communism, socialism and left-wing fascism are ALWAYS doomed to failure and loss of liberty.

So why should Alter be "shocked"?

When true believers in the media commie herd see their Dear Leader failing they react in phony dismay which actually just masks their anger at the stupidity of a populace that doesn't worship at the feet of their false god.

Alter used to be with Newsweak magazine, the dismal Administration propaganda arm. Now he's down to being an obscure plodding blogger for the Bloomberg View, one of nanny-statist Mayor Bloomberg's multiple stabs at building a publication empire like Rupert Murdoch's (Fox).

One half of a leftist media duo, Alter's wife, Emily Lazar, is a producer with the hard-left TV show, the Colbert Report.

Inconsequential jerks like Alter can never come to grips with their idols showing feet of clay...never. So there's nothing "genuine" about his "shock" at Obama's decline....a misapprehension on the part of the author above.

The only thing actually genuine about Alter's emotions is anger at others who don't worship Obama as he does....... plus a clever defensiveness applied to his own folly in believing in the divinity of the Chicago political street pimp in the first place.

All that's missing is the plague of frogs.

Don't forget the pestilence, boils, hail, locusts, darkness, lice, flies and wild animals and the blood and death of the first born. Might as well give him the full Pharaoh treatment! We need a modern day Moses to lead us out of the bondage of Washington DC!

Great find, great post!

Here is my $.02 worth:

R E S P E C T!

Obongo Bozo has no respect for America, American culture, American traditions or the American people!

He has disrespected everything American since long before he began his run for the Presidency.

He is unfit to be a garbage collector, much less President!

Is it 2012 yet?
