White House: This much snow gets Obama's respect

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Presidential quips about Washington's supposed lack of winter toughness have disappeared as snow accumulations mounted.

Barack Obama had been in office for about a week in 2009 when he expressed disbelief that many schools had canceled classes one day because of ice. "As my children pointed out, in Chicago, school is never canceled," he said then. "We're going to have to try to apply some flinty Chicago toughness."

Well, here comes more than a little ice: an estimated 20 to 30 inches of snow in Washington.

What you want
Baby I got it...

PING!

[MortMan]

I didn’t realize Obambi HAD any respect.

Lord knows he doesn’t get any from ME! ;-P

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Maryland “Freak State” PING!

[BigLittle]

Why do they (MSM) refer to him as a “Chicago native”?

[Enchante]

from article's discusson of Obambi's "bi-partisan" invites to his SuperBowl party:

"The lone Republican to land the invite: Rep. Joseph Cao, the only member of the GOP who supported a procedural vote that allowed the House to move forward on Obama's health care overhaul that has since stalled."

yeah, and that's exactly what the Obamanation and the Media mean by "bi-partisanship" --- RINOs who roll over completely for the Demagogues

If I recall correctly, this was also the storm or cold snap last year in DC when the heat in the White House was cranked up well past 70 degrees. And Robert Gibbs said that Obama is from Hawaii and likes it warm.

The irony of the liberal global warming fanatics turning up their thermostats when lecturing the rest of us to turn ours down is astounding.

He respects snow fall but refuses to respect the Supreme Court and now we are suppose to repsect him?

[VicVega]

The Global Warming Religion marches on while DC is buried in snow.

Someone arrest lil Al Gore.

[FreeperFlirt]

maybe the power will go out and obozo can’t be seen or heard~~~~

[Candor7]

Global Swarming, Cap and Charade?

Eff them every one.

Including the parasite in the WH who pretends to be president.

"On Sunday, Obama plans to host a Super Bowl party, as he did last year. His guests will include lawmakers of both parties, military service members and members of his Cabinet."

Is Barry going to tell the common folk to stay home and off the streets while he sends his fleet of Vans out to pick up lawmakers so they can PARTY!?

I wouldn't bet against it.

"We're going to have to try to apply some flinty Chicago toughness."

Didn't we just all get told that the obamaTATOR keeps the thermostat near 90-degrees in the Oval Office?

Some "toughness"....LOL

[beckysueb]

Trying to make us forget he was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia, and not a US native.

[freekitty]

I think God is telling Obama something.
