The happiest man in the world right now is John Boehner. Obama saved Boehner from agreeing to an $800 billion dollar tax hike (and thereby ending his speakership) when Obama made an additional $400 billion demand at the last minute.

Oh my goodness -- you're right. The whole thing was a macabre dance of the brain deads.

Man, and I going to have a field day telling a bunch of stupid friends: “I told you so!” Obozo’s one talent is reading a teleprompter. Everything else is a fraud.

Well, this no talent ass clown has been kicking our asses. The GOP is the only thing propping him up.

Like Clinton, Obama is having an "I'm still relevant" moment.

Only for Obama, it's going to be more than a moment. Hot dog.

Only a fools says “Dont call my bluff!” when holding a losing hand. And when you call their bluff they become a cry baby throwing a conniption fit. He has just been tested and now everyone knows the Emperor has no clothes.

I only give the definition so everyone knows how perfect it describes the event.

A conniption fit is generally characterized by a tirade of strong language accompanied by signs of frustration, rage and/or sadness. Sometimes a person having a conniption fit is reduced to stutters and incomprehensible epithets.

He is simply a failed president. And his failure was pre-ordained by the contempt in which he holds the people he is supposed to lead, and his failure to prepare for the realities and needs of the job.

--------------------------

Spot on tlb.

I AGREE WITH THAT

His 'leadership' style is classic liberalism: No vision + utter incompetence = total failure

debt-direction2

We said; cut, cut, cut. But it looks like we got; spend, spend, spend. A hamburger today for payment later.

So Obama's economy continues on a downward track. Once you go over a cliff you cannot stop half way down, and the DeathCare bill that he and Nancy put in place might finish it off.

BOHIC-A!

What the Tea Party wants is what most Americans want - fiscal sanity. I don't think it is possible for this country to have a more sorry bunch of losers running the show.

 An arrogant Marxist was spending
 Trillions of bucks without comprehending.
 The piss-stream media concurred
 Without saying a negative word
 For the Republic they thought was ending.

The Gross Domestic Product, Second Quarter 2011 (Advance Estimate) is reported by the Bureau of Economic Analysis at 1.3% (as of 8:30 A.M. EDT, Friday, July 29, 2011). If they tell us we had 1.3% growth, it really means we had no growth or negative growth.

2011 Q1 GDP was revised down from 1.9% to 0.4%. So in the first quarter, real GDP increased 0.4 percent. We're economically frozen as a nation with this jackwagon president in office. We have an economy that lags behind Canada and Mexico!

June's employment report showed a growth of just 18,000 jobs, and July is on track for about 85,000 -- that's below our population growth.

God help us all.

I disagree. The Dems won big big big in 2008. Obama did his damage until the GOP took the House and stopped him. Rather, Obama let Reid and Pelosi loose. It's been downhill for them since.

This was a big loss for Obama personally. He'd hope to make the GOP complicit in the economic woes and split them from their base with new taxes. Fail.

Ok.... who is the photoshopper here???

We need a blending of Oblidiot’s face and ... wait for it..... Megamind... you know the little blue freak in the cartoon movie. Yeah, and use Megaminds play off of the red and blue “Hope” poster that says .... “oh no I can’t”

Beyond that, has anyone else seen Leo Donofrio’s post on July 1, 2011????? It has a link to this post: http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com/2011/06/30/the-express-lane-to-natural-born-clarity/#comment-18616

Justia.com - the supreme court site, has been deliberately erasing references to Minor vs. Happersett since 2008. WTH is SCOTUS doing erasing case law? More importantly THAT case law? The one with binding legal definitions of a natural born citizen being born to TWO parents who are citizens????? Woah.....

Obama is a fool—running for President when he was woefully unqualifed. There is no finer example of faileed affirmative action. The silver lining will be total repudiations of leftist ideology for at least a decade.

This new deal will bring us higher taxes. The debt commission will say raise taxes and this bill says if Congress says no there will be real cuts in defense/medicare that the MSM will use to bludgeon the GOP.

It’s as plain as the nose on Waxman’s face

Good catch, Danae, thanks for posting this.

Quote from Leo (Leo: thanks for your tireless efforts on this):

“This is a very important point we take from Minor v. Happersett, that some ‘born citizens’ are not ‘natural born’.”

I have passed this onto a radio personality I have done an interview with in the past. I am hoping he jumps on this.

This scares the pee out of me. This happened in June of July of 2008. Someone hoofing for Obama in SCOTUS was laying the path, they KNEW there was a problem.

Who has the ability to edit Justia.com??? Thats no little matter. Who had that ability in 2008? Man I want to connect the dots on this.
