The idea that this guy is anything like Reagan is beyond preposterous.
IBTZ
Indeed.
“Great Brittan — 1938” keeps going through my mind.
Are you sure your IBTZ is warranted ?
Baraq’s toast.
The mideast blowup nails the coffin shut.
$5 gas is the poison pill for the US economy.
In Nov 2012 voters will be thinking the 10% unemployment of 2010 was the “good old days”
$ 5 gas staring Americans in the face day after day will sink this guy in Carteresque proportions.
That is an assured political truth.
I’m still trying to figure out what the Hell this is about.
You and me both. Is he talking about Gadhafi?
Yeah I was a bit worried that the economy might muddle thru in 012 and Baraq could BS his way thru the campaign.
The mideast blowup pretty much kills that.
The only risk is a 3-way race where Obama has a shot at a Clintonian plurality win.
I guess he didn’t get the pun on the Reagan quote about Qaddafi.
“Today we have done what we had to do. If necessary, we shall do it again. It gives me no pleasure to say that, and I wish it were otherwise....Despite our repeated warnings, Qadhafi continued his reckless policy of intimidation, his relentless pursuit of terror. He counted on America to be passive. He counted wrong.”
-Ronald Reagan
1986
Get the joke now?
I get it now and wish to recall my IBTZ....lol
I get it now and wish to recall my IBTZ....lol
Well nothing about the current state of world affairs is very funny maybe thats why no one got the joke
Well duh. It helps if you know the quote. I never heard it before. Thanks for the heads up.
I listen to an old Def Leppard song just to hear Reagan say that at the end. :)
I thought of that song as soon as I read the quote? Was it “Don’t Shoot Shotgun”? “Gods of War?” Can’t remember. It was from the Pyromania album, though, I’m sure of that.
Hysteria
We had the opportunity to go throught the Reagan Library this Monday, Presidents Day. I can say with 100% certainty that Obama is no Reagan!! The similarities of the situation facing Reagan after Carter and the mess we are in today are very telling. Obama is a stupid hack compared to Reagan.
