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.

Iranians are dying - as this guy is skateboarding? What's next? Are they going to jump on the Lincoln bed?

Where are the adults?

Image and video hosting by TinyPic Obama's attitude towards the office of President, which he shows in the Oval Office by putting his shoes up on the Resolute Desk, a certified museum piece and part of the history we share with Great Britain.

That’s what I read in one of the articles. It’s just a big playground for the obama crew apparently.

He asked for permission and ‘they’ said ok. And why not? These people ar dumber than dumb; dumber than dirt. Add to that their arrogance. . .their disdain; they think; act; believe; all to their error; that this IS THEIR house!

And yes, what a great backdrop to Iran burning; and heroes are in the making. (Hope Obama enjoyed the ice cream outing today as well. This coward had a lot of time; since, rather than deliver message ‘offcially’ he just passed it on to Gibbs.)

“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”

President Reagan never took his suit coat off in the Oval Office; Clinton engaged in sex acts while dealing with matters of international policy. Such behavior speaks volumes about character, or the lack of it.

The Democrats are doing what's expected of them. I'm more than a little irked at Republicans. You won't see support from me for your women and sensitive New Age guys (SNAGs).

And here’s the answer to another anti-defense lie by leaders of both political parties—the lie that Iran isn’t harboring and supporting Al Qaeda. The Shiites and Sunnis are thick as forty thieves when trying to hurt us. Don’t blame anyone else, if you refuse to defend the USA out of fears that freight fuel and foreign product prices will go up (globalism). Put your money where your mouth is. Pound Iran’s military facilities. Then invade, occupy and denazify that rotten country.

I wonder if this photo of Hawks skateboarding down the halls of the White House will become one of those “pictures that changed the world.”

It might; could. ..would; if it were shown around the world; or even shown on Fox News. Still waiting. . .(Perhaps I missed it?)

This is the 'Jerry Springer' generation - grown up. . .'Sally Jesse Raphael' et al; ad nauseum; add to that 'Reality TV'; gross cartoons; and 'all round debasement' of our culture; and I guess this is what we are left with. Of course, we cannot take the 'Liberal' out of the equasion either.

These people have NO concept of the humility of power; and perhaps their 'ends justifies means' MO has something to do with this. They actually believe that 'representative power' is no more than their having it; claiming it; wielding it; and thus, abusing it.

That this 'skateboarding' event comes on the heals of Nancy Pelosi's incredible arrogant insult to ALL our Military; by way of her powerful 'Nellie' (Little House on the Prairie) moment; when she admonishes Brigadier General Michael Walsh just raises the bar on the noxious megalamaniacal narcissism of Liberals. Or, just lowers it.

Actually, looking at one of the later photos, it sure looks like the White House to me. The OEB is a bit more dark and dingy, whereas the later photo is the corridor just outside next to the Rose Garden.
