Barack Obama's liberal base is furious over his decision to pick centrist members for his cabinet and for bringing the Clintons back to the White House.
Obama has angered the far left by retaining Robert Gates as defense secretary, and retired General Jim Jones as national security advisor. And with Hillary Clinton set to take the helm of the State Department, hope and change has taken a back seat to 'stay the course'.
Gates was the architect of the troop surge, which paved the road for what now can be called a decisive victory in the Iraq war. With that in mind, it is highly unlikely that Obama will withdraw our military within the original time frame that he outlined during the campaign. It is also improbable that the defense budget will be slashed anytime soon, as the attention of the war on terror will now turn toward Afghanistan. This will stick in the craw of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, as well as Obama's puppet master George Soros.
Meanwhile, it is being reported that Obama has developed a chronic facial tic brought on by the stress of the presidential campaign. The Secret Service has also had to increase security due to more threats on his life than any other president-elect in history has received. The spasmodic anomaly has supposedly left his wife Michelle very distraught. The pressure that Obama has been under is only bound to increase with the economic downturn set to get worse before it gets better, and world tensions will take their toll as well.
One can only hope that the "messiah" doesn't develop Tourette Syndrome before Inauguration Day. That could prove interesting.

Hmmm. I wonder if SNL and other media outlets will portray 0’s tics as something to be made light of like Pres.Bush’s language “difficulties” or Pres. Fords tendencies towards clumsiness?
All his friends hate America or are terrorists.
I’m dubious....
I wonder if Obama will be blackmailable (is that a word?) if he isn’t a citizen and that’s EXACTLY why they wanted him in there.
He better do as he’s told or ooppssiieesss, just happened to find this authentic birth certificate lying around...
if Michelle is “very distraught” over uh’s spasmodic anomaly wait ‘til l8r.if ya’ can’t take the heat get out da’kitchen...better yet ,don’t even go in at all.
It’s amazing how fast a kid has to grow up when he’s thrown out into the real world. He thought we Conservatives were mean. Wait he finds out how TRULY NASTY the lefties he embraced become if he doesn’t toe their line. Hell hath no fury like a leftist scorned.
Thin skinned lightweight...
He has a facial tick now..? And he hasn’t even assumed power in the BRUSA. (Banana Repubulic of USA)..
In the meantime..where’s his birth cert?
Didn’t he tell his people his boss said he had to hire Hitlery?
He’s going to have two of the worst women on each side of him. LOL
How would we know?
Bullshit!
Gates very publicly opposed the Surge, and only undertook it at the President's insistence.
Someone needs to brush up on his very recent world history!
The facial tic is probably just his Manchurian Candidate psychological-behavioral conditioning wearing off.
Nothing to worry about.
[LOL. I’m sorry, but I’m beginning to find his predicament pretty funny. He doesn’t know a thing and will soon step into the most powerful job in the world. There’s something Kubrickian about the whole situation.
It also reminds me a bit of James Coburn’s performance in a very funny film called “The President’s Analyst.” If I remember correctly, he also developed some sort of facial tic brought on by the stress of having to psychoanalyze the POTUS.
Just as the lisping “s” (pronounced as a “th”) in Castilian Spanish was apparently begun as a sign of support by Spanish subjects for their king (who sufferend from this speech impediment), perhaps lefties will purposely adopt this tic as their own — to show respect and support.
I think it behooves us, as patriots on FR, to make this kind-hearted suggestion to all the lib sites we can find.]
“Hell hath no fury like a leftist scorned.”
Doesn’t apply here. American leftists are cowards. When confronted with threats of violence, American leftists will either run away or downshift into appeasement mode.
Now, leftists may cry, stamp their feet or wet their pants if nobama doesn’t give them their candy, but that’s as far as it will go.
And the birth certificate conundrum.
The spasmodic anomaly has supposedly left his wife Michelle very distraught.
Obama IS a "spasmodic anomaly". She must be distraught for some other "reason".
I don't know whether to ROTFLMAO or tremble in fear. He hasn't even taken office yet and he's freakin' out on us already. What an L7 weenie.
That's a very good way of putting something that I've been trying to express on the bc threads. Some people continue to raise the spectre of "riots across the country - looting and pillaging - mayhem and murder" if the Obots don't get their Messiah in office.
I say bull. Only a very small fraction of the Obots have the stomach to commit mayhem and disorder. The rest of the Obot rainbow movement only have the courage to carry protest signs, and most don't even have that.
Any bets on how long it takes for the facial tics to lead to full blown psychosis.
