It was a pre-approved question with a pre-approved response.

A meandering, long-winded circuits answer or lack of one such as demonstrated here by Obama is the province of the intellectually lazy, ill-informed and the undisciplined and unfocused mind. Obama is no intellectual or orator, he’s an ass.

Boy, does that little girls face in the lower right hand side of the picture tell it all. Adults drooling all over the wizard of oz while she stares off in boredom and a strong desire to escape these idiots. She’s Alice in Wonderland and is attending the Tea Party (not the right one, the left one....)

Redistribution is Theft

Some one made a bumper sticker who read "DO NOT STEAL, GOVERNMENT DOES NOT LIKE COMPETITION!" I thought that was cool!

Flap Ears, you're going to be a wonder to watch at your impeachment trial. If you think this nation is going to put up with four years of your subversive bullshit (much less eight), your puppet masters and handlers have been passing you some bad 411. You shoulda stayed in Chi-town with the rest of the petty, thieving union thugs, because being an uppity, arrogant punk doesn't flush with us.

a woman named Doris stood to ask the president whether it was a "wise decision to add more taxes to us with the health care" package. "We are over-taxed as it is," Doris said bluntly. Obama started out feisty. "Well, let's talk about that, because this is an area where there's been just a whole lot of misinformation, and I'm going to have to work hard over the next several months to clean up a lot of the misapprehensions that people have," the president said. He then spent the next 17 minutes and 12 seconds... more than 2,500 words... wandered from topic to topic... the deficit, pay-as-you-go rules passed by Congress, Congressional Budget Office reports on Medicare waste, COBRA coverage, the Recovery Act and Federal Medical Assistance Percentages... the notion of eliminating foreign aid... invoked Warren Buffett, earmarks and the payroll tax that funds Medicare (referring to it, in fluent Washington lingo, as "FICA").

If you're overtaxed, reflect on these words:

From Each According To His Ability, To Each According To Their Needs.

If you feel you're overtaxed, clearly you're not reporting your needs properly, Comrade! Either that, or you're being selfish and greedy and confusing wants with needs...

My jaw dropped at your post. Chilling. It describes his _residency perfectly. Those words should be chiseled in stone on any future obama bust created.
