Are you following me camera guy?

[Boardwalk]

Quick bankrupcy and stong viable automobile industry no denying significant hardships.. wheres Jake

THank you mr president...do you believe the previous admin sanctioned torture

he said it and he will repeat waterboarding is torture and that is why I put an end to the practices....info yes, but we could have got it in other ways, in ways consistent to our values..the british during ww had detainees and churchill said we do not torture because he understood shortcuts corrode the character of a country and he the one, strongly believes the steps we have taken to prohibit these practices makes us stronger and a beacon to the world.

[Sarah Barracuda]

I’m watching TNT, Miami at Atlanta

[sporkgoddess]

I don’t think Churchill had the same definition of “torture” as modern liberals seem to.

[Right_in_Virginia]

So now Zero’s CHURCHILL???

I think NOT!

[pbear8]

Just invite them to tea parties, they will tell us anything we want to know.

[swheats]

“This question is torturous.”

The answer is too.

[True Republican Patriot]

NO! FOX DID NOT CAVE!
You must be watching FOX NEWS!
I’m watching FOX, ZERO AIN’T THERE! Thank Heaven!

[Williams]

He’s busy now sayimg we are better if we won’t waterboard even if it’s “hard” (Hard means if a city is nuked).

[tobyhill]

Technically speaking, Obama kidnapped a misunderstood youth from Somalia.

[hugorand]

I’m guessing Churchill had a Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy on what today is considered torture

[tflabo]

Obama trying to compare himself to Churchill?

Oh yeh...the bust statue of whom he sent back to Britain!

[Dinah Lord]

Well you certainly won’t have to worry about the flu because you’ll be dead from alcohol poisoning by the end of the week.

No I won't I'm going to wash my hands.

[NormsRevenge]

Things Change.. Things Stay the same.

sad to see the office occupied by someone so undeserving of its mission and purpose.

[svcw]

Not watching. Did he really say wash your hands or are you joking around?

[pulaskibush]

I like his statement right after. "It's torture according to me and other people who have examined the issue"

By other people, he means leftist anti-American groups.

[John W]

It would appear some local affiliates may be picking up a feed of this clusterbang on their own.

[FourPeas]

If part of US under eminent thread could you see yourself authorizing use of waterboarding?

Re the title:

How to Do a Shamwow Commercial

• Get a Bronx / Long Island accent.
  
• Apply gel.
  
• Purchase Madonna headset mic.
  
• "It was made in Germany". Repeat x3.
  
• Say "Look at this!" and "Ya follow me, camera guy?" a lot.
  
• ????
  
• PROFIT
  

  Let's let Barry try..

  

  Hi, it's Barry with ShamNow! You'll be saying Sham every time I sign a bill! It's like a chamois! It's like a towel! It's like a sponge. A regular bill doesn't get all your money - this works on paper money or pocket change. This is for the House, the Senate, the boat, the RV! ShamNow holds twenty times its weight in money. Look at this! It just does the work! Why do you want to work twice as hard? It doesn't drip, doesn't make a mess. You wring it out, launder it in the Senate. It is made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff. You can cut it in half, use one as a bath mat, drain your dishes with the other one, use one as a towel. Olympic divers, they use it as a towel (no, you're a towel). Look at that! Completely broke! Put a business in it, roll it up, it sucks all the profit. Here's some oil, coal, natural gas and pet stains. Not only is the damage gonna be on top - there's your carbon. That is going to smell! See that? The most absorbing We're gonna do this in real time! Look at this! Put it on the profit, turn it over! Without even putting any pressure, fifty percent of the profit right there. You follow me, camera guy? The other fifty percent, the money starts to come up. No other towel's gonna do that! It acts like a vacuum! And look at this - virtually broke on the bottom! See what I'm telling ya? ShamNow! You'll be saying Sham every time!

“But Reggie Love, the ever present Butler and subject of obscene internet frat party pictures, “

As most recent students at Duke and UNC know, that was a real teabagging!

[Right_in_Virginia]

Obama believes waterboarding is torture and it was a mistake.

What an a$$hole!
