I’d like to crash the Whitehouse and stuff up his crapper.

You might want to rethink the wording on that posting, 'cause if you show up in a limo with some blow, he might accept!

I was thinking along the lines of way back when I was a bachelor and had a nice bachelor pad, I was hanging out with a friend one day and there was a knock on the door. It was a guy we knew pretty well, though I wouldn't consider him a great friend. He came in and immediately asked if he could use the bathroom.

He stunk up my entire apartment big time, stuffed up the toilet near permanent, and then left. Turned out he was just passing by and needed to divest himself of a bubblin' log. :)

So I figured that it would be fulfilling if I went on an all cheese diet for a couple of weeks, then go on beans and plums for 24 hours before visiting Zero's new crib.

Oh, I’m sure the MSM is loving this!! They hope THEY’LL be invited sometime. Journalists didn’t like George and Laura Bush, because they weren’t schmoozers, and didn’t have lots of parties to suck up to the MSM.

President Bush invited Democrats to the White House, too, in order to ‘build relationships’. The Democrats still voted against all his proposals, which is fine, but they didn’t just disagree with President Bush; they trashed him in the press, which these Republicans don’t seem to be doing to Obama. Just goes to show the Repubs. have much more class!

Pres. and Mrs. Bush are class personified.

And he DID reach across the aisle .. where did the
No Child Left Behind law begin? Teddy the Swimmah.
In the beginning, he made many attempts, but after
so many attacks, mocking, and hate mongering ...
I’m sure he realized it wouldn’t matter what he did.

And, it wouldn’t have mattered.

He and Laura Bush, however, never stooped to their
rank and disgusting level or responded with what
would’ve been understandable venom or anger. How
they kept their graciousness in the face of such
vitriol is something for which I’ll always hold
them in the deepest admiration and pride. God
bless them.

No mention of the socializing Reagans? Why am I not surprised?

I think it’s great that the Obamas are having social interactions with all sorts of people. Good for them.

I don't think he'd quite make it at one of our gatherings.

We could always tape fruit to his head and blow it up for our own amusement, and then laugh when he freaks out and spills his latte on his loafers.

LOL! You're right! All that socializing was BAD, BAD, when the Reagans did it. Ostentatious displays of wealth, and all that. Didn't matter if it was just an informal gathering, because the Reagans were doing it, it MUST be just sucking up to the wealthy.

Caviar and champagne, big golden rings and expensive cigars
Sweaty butts on a couch whuch cost as much as ticket to Mars
Phony smile... Those eyes as they pay unbelievable price
for the right to decide what to do - for me and you

House in France and a Benz -
you see, the whole world’s right in their hands
Such a waste - Wicked Lounge’s a happening place.

Balding guys - filthy rich and every one’s such a son of a bitch
Countrys sold, countrys bought.
They’re trading wars and can you tell me why not?
Write a check - or a pass? It’s just as easy as scratching your ass
What is right?What is wrong?
Pay the price and it won’t take too long
to decide what is right thing to do - for me and you

Maybe this makes you sick
You see, the point is their wallet’s too thick
Such a waste - Wicked Lounge’s a remarkable place

Dearest God, please get pissed -
I’m sure that none of these jerks will be missed
Such a waste - Wicked Lounge’s a wonderful place

No cerveza will be served, to avoid having some wag say, of the Sock Puppet, the old Groucho Marx line, “I’ve seen better heads on a glass of beer.” ;’)

So I see what you posted, and the first thing that comes to mind in response is Tom Waits lyrics: “Pasties and a g-string, beer and a shot ...”
