MONDAY'S GREGALOGUE - NOW, BECAUSE I'M PISSED
The Daily Gut ^ | 8:21pm on Saturday the 20th 2009 of June | Greg Gutfeld

Posted on 06/20/2009 5:25:32 PM PDT by Checkers

Am I an old fart or am I right to be pissed that some jackass is skateboarding down the halls of the White House while all this Iranian shit is going down?

We truly have succumbed to the idiocy of the MTV/Mountain Dew/Road Rules backward hat and baggy short culture. Did I miss something, or is the White House the future set for the next Real World? Where are the wallet chains? Is Hot Topic handling our foreign policy? Obama should be grounded for a week for letting Tony Hawk play in OUR house. Where in hell are the adults?

Look: Tony Hawk is in his mid forties. He's a grown man...and he skateboards. Could you imagine your dad or anyone who lived during World War II treating a man who skateboards with anything less than scorn and ridicule?

Right now, people are risking their lives for the glimmer of freedom, and Tony Hawk is in the White House tweeting about Frosted Flakes.

Someone please dig up Reagan. I'd take a dead leader with balls over a living camp counselor who wants all the cool kids to like him.

What a screaming joke.

You probably are an old fart, so am I. I am also pissed and was instantly when I read about some a**hat being allowed to skateboard in the WH. Once again Bozo shows he has no respect for the country of the job he holds.

It wouldn’t surprise me, that a fire happens and there is no White House before he’s done there.

This whole fiasco didn’t teach me anything new about Obama. However, I didn’t know anything about Tony Hawk except his name. The fact that he would do this, regardless of permission, tells me enough about him...

I was disgusted when I saw it.

Total lack of respect by those hoodlums in the White House.

That's what happens when you let trailer trash move into the White House.

Exactly!

“The skateboarding was an “in your face” gesture demonstrating 1) Obama, his handlers, and the Dems can do whatever they like with the White House”

I completely agree. No one would allow this in their home, so there’s a reason behind it. I think you’re absolutely right -it’s an “in your face” move. I think it’s directed at Republicans, or more specifically, conservatives, who value the symbols of our country. It’s like the shoes on the desk, IMO - obama and his fans can shrug it off as meaningless but I really don’t believe it is.

Not that I’m condoning his actions but he skated in the halls of the Old Executive office and NOT the White House.

Greg:"am I right to be pissed that some jackass is skateboarding down the halls of the White House...?"

More troubling is the mental skateboarding of the jackass setting the policies. We'll all wipeout from that. As he continues to test the laws of gravity.

If I saw Tony Hawk doing that (and I had anything to say about it), I'd be chasing him with a stick and making him

get that damned contraption off my floors!

Next time VOTE Old Farts! We need adults in charge. Obama makes Hillary look respectable. Vote in Conservatives in 2010. vote out Liberals/Progressives and RINOS!

You're right - it's dreadful.
