OBAMA SADDLES
Roman Around ^ | 22 January 2009 | Andrew Roman

There will probably be some who don’t pick up on the reference to the classic Mel Brook’s movie Blazing Saddles, but today’s signing of the Executive Order by President Barack Obama calling for the close of the detention center at Guantanamo Bay was not unlike watching a scene from what is one of the funniest motion pictures ever made.

The President reminded me of Governor William J. Lepetomane (Mel Brooks), the man in charge who is far more focused on the buoyant breasts of the lady in his office than the matters at hand. By his side is Hedley Lamarr (Harvey Korman), the informed, conniving side-kick with all the answers, diligently (frantically) keeping Lepetomane in the loop. That role was played today by Gregory Craig, the man who defended President Bill Clinton during his impeachment proceedings, now White House counsel.

Here is a link to the complete video of the President of the United States effectively compromising the country's security in the name of whatever foolhardy politically-motivated excuse he is using to justify it, via MSNBC.

...

Incidentally, here is the clip from Blazing saddles, via You Tube, I am referring to.

We knew that he was Soros' fence post turtle for years now.

The office of the White House is clearly above this man's pay grade.

Some people might also think of the “campfire” scene.

He used the phrase... “dispose of the detainees.”

Does that mean that a bullet to the head followed by a mass grave is still an option?

And can we as Americans vow that in the future we will only vote for a president who is capable of saying the word “TO” instead of “TA”?

Why in the Wide World of Sports would anyone compare Barrack “where the white women at” Obama to Governor William J” I didn’t get a “harrumph” out of that guy!” Le Petomane ??

Lepetomane at least had executive experience!!!
