LOL. He was for it before he was against it!

[animal172]

That may be one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Almost as funny as Achmed the Dead Terrorist. Thanks..

[Rockitz]

I guess he signed it into law before he signed it out of law? Sounds like a great way to campaign in 2012. Can you say weasel?

[firebrand]

Stepin Fetchit was a genius.

"Actually, it now does seem that they knew what they were doing ..."

Exactly so. He damn well knew about Dickey-Wicker, it's a sop to the +50 A-A crew who supported him at 95% in '08 and who also greatly distrust ESC experimentation -- and rightly so.

People, read post 34. The federal government can still pay for destroying human embryos for stem cell research. Just not from THAT bill.

[Dacula]

I am biased and I do not get paid for my opinion... I can’t stand obama and I want him to fail, while I suffer the least under his aggression.

[wardaddy]

shite...I’ll take it...

like they said...even Adolf or maybe it was Doochey made the trains run on time

[SkyDancer]

Where’s the MSM on this???

[fedupjohn]

Thanks to the Dickey-Wicker language in Section 509 of the omnibus bill, the “extent permitted by law” will continue to forbid federal funding of research that even puts embryos at risk.

Well now, as I understand the separation of powers, a Presidential Executive Order, cannot override a Congressional Vote, fix me if I'm wrong. Now, the dumb-ass's in Congress will have to vote on this; again, am I wrong.

[Liberty Valance]

Is this why he signed this bill behind closed doors - no press allowed?

[WHBates]

He knew exactly what he was signing. It's all about form over substance. He wants to be on both sides of the issue. Somehow this will be Bushes fault I’ll bet. Well that's if the MSM ever even brings the issue up.

[pillut48]

Wait a minute, wait a minute...does this mean HolyO signed a bill saying it was okay to create and destroy human embryos after President Bush signed one that said it wasn’t okay to create and destroy new embryos only to have HolyO sign a law that says it isn’t okay to destroy human embryos only to set up an appeal of an amendment to make a new law saying it is okay to create and destroy human embryos?!?!

I...am...soooooooo...confused!!!

[Bag]

Don’t blame me, I voted for the old guy, lol

[Slings and Arrows]

[Cheerio]

He’s never clueless. He’s brilliant, always.

It's good to start the day off with a laugh. This one still makes me laugh every time I hear it. Why would a supposedly bright man like Michael Beschloss say something so utterly ridiculous? He has no idea what Obama's IQ is but he, as the expert, is telling the audience that it's "off the charts."

[Cheerio]

Try this one - it is still available

Obama's IQ on the Don Imus Show; Mike Beschloss Typical Arrogant Liberal Pseudo-intellectual Clown

[matthew fuller]

"Does this clown know what he’s doing?"

I think NOT!

"It’s the revolving door of ‘CHANGE’!"

The Change... is coming home... to roooost!
