Negotiating with Obama
self | 10/07/13 | self

Posted on 10/07/2013 1:17:53 PM PDT by GilGil

Vladimir Putin allegedly said off the record: "Negotiating with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon. The pigeon knocks over all the pieces, sh*ts on the board and then struts around like it won the game."


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Education; Health/Medicine; Military/Veterans
KEYWORDS: negotiating; obama; obamacare; putin
Was reading this on financial web site. Could not resist posting it for a good laugh. It is highly appropriate given his fumbling of the government shutdown.

I don’t know if Putin said it, but it’s been picked up from somewhere and posted in several places, including a Telegraph blog:

Don’t know if it came from Putin but it’s a good analogy to “arguing” with liberals in general.

Typical of pigeons all over Africa and the hood.

A perfectly appropriate characterization.

That comparison has been used to describe arguing with red diaper babies and their useful idiots.
