Now that's rich! The O knows science?? Hilarious.
Obama looks like a black Herbert Hoover with attitude.
The Imam keeps digging his hole deeper. No one is buying his BS and he’s too arrogant to care. The RAT party would be well advised to inform their Messiah to cut the BS because their ship is sinking fast.
Voters are scared of 0bama for good reason. His angry black man shouting and diabloical demeanor add to the fear. I hope he continyas this. He is the best motivator that the Republicans can have. 0bama, please come to California and give it your best shot.
Scared? We are way past scared. We are Angry.
The Obama Agenda. Shoveling Sweden, Cuba and Venezuela in a Soviet-style Marxist nation of failure.
Obama is right. He and his policies have me terrified. But I’m thinking pretty clearly.
He confuses anger for fear!!!
"Part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time is because we're hardwired not to always think clearly when we're scared," Obama said Saturday evening in remarks at a small Democratic fundraiser Saturday evening. "And the country's scared."
And this guy was a part-time lecturer at the U of C? Used to be a great school, but now... Presidents are not supposed to be making statements as stupid as this one. People don't always think clearly when they are sleepy. When they are scared, threatened, they're at the top of their form. We're 'hardwired' for survival. When threatened with 19th century Marxist collectivism by the biggest government in human history, damn right we'll respond in ways that this semi-educated boob would not understand. Could never understand.
OK, admittedly my basic physiology course is 30 years in the past, but:
When you get a scare, the immediate response is dilation of the blood vessels of your heart, lungs, elevation of your blood pressure to get the blood to your skeletal muscles
so they’ll help you to fight or flee, and a slowdowm of your parasympathetic system (vegetative functions like digestion.)
Peripheral vasoconstriction is the opposite of what occurs in your brain vasculature, no?
I don’t know what happens when you’re continually under assault by your pop-top endogenous chemicals like adrenaline. I don’t think the average citizen’s judgment is all that impaired. I think he’s looking for excuses for his flagging popularity.
Does anyone else think that Soros is throwing him under the bus to bring Hillary back in 2012 or 2016? (Glenn Beck articulated that this afternoon on TV.)
Note to Obama, there is a world of difference between
scared and OUTRAGED!
The comparison to Hoover is unfair to Hoover—Hoover had accomplished things in his life before going into politics. He was a self-made millionaire and saved lots of lives in Europe during WWI by getting food to people who would otherwise have starved. Obama has no accomplishments unless you are looking at his career from the perspective of someone who wants America to be weakened.
Spoken from the mouth of a TRUE LOSER, who knows it is time to sweat. Obama says these things when it is HE who is getting very nervous. This is a good thing! He did the same thing when Hillary was on his heels. It’s called panic.
Now, if we take the senate or come close enough to flip Leiberman and one other we could cause O. a great headache.
He wants a republican majority to run against but don’t think it included us winning the senate, EVER. It’s a possibility now.
There is frustration, and some fear, and a lot of barely-contained anger, for good reason.
Commentators, and many others, continue to judge Obama’s intentions and his acts in terms of the more-or-less familiar ideological template represented by what we’ve come to view as “traditional” Democrats. Big mistake!!
He is a Socialist Autocrat, intensely focused on fundamentally transforming the U.S.A., as he told us, and he has two more years to rule, not govern, but rule, in untrammelled pursuit of his agenda. We err when we think he is concerned about being re-elected in 2012. His utterly unconstitutional approach has not yet been challenged in our courts, and if he is not brought up short very soon, I will be truly fearful for the continued existence of our Republic.
Well then, perhaps he’s a black James Buchanan with attitude.
Of course we don't know if Obama ever took any science courses since none of his transcripts have been released.
His position at the U of C was obviously given to him because of political pressure, not because he had something valuable to offer the students.
Buchanan is arguably the worst President ever...if Presidents were given grades, he would get an “F.” They will need to invent a new grading system to accommodate Obama’s place in the rankings...maybe a “G”? (Not for “good” but as the next letter below F.)
