Paul McCartney on Obama: 'Lay Off Him'
Fox News ^ | 6/2/10 | Fox Staff

Posted on 06/02/2010 7:52:03 AM PDT by nmh

(June 2) -- Paul McCartney is a man known for his words, usually when they're set to music. But he chose some special ones at the Library of Congress to praise President Barack Obama, before whom he will soon be performing: Let him be.

"I have to say I'm a big fan, he's a great guy," McCartney said at a Washington news conference Tuesday that was attended by politicians as well as journalists. "So lay off him, he's doing great."

...

Perhaps as an example of his global concerns, McCartney called the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico "a disgrace."

"I think most of us think it's a disgrace, and the fact that something like this can happen" is something that is "going to be addressed," he said.

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

Oh Paul ... BP is a BRITISH COMPANY!

BP has NOTHING to do with MEXICO!

British Petroleum (BP) is a UK company.

BP plc[2] is a British global energy company which is the third largest energy company and the fourth largest company in the world. As a multinational oil company ("oil major") BP is the UK's largest corporation, with its headquarters in St James's, City of Westminster, London.

In heaven, they won't be there!

There is a HUGE difference between Bible based Christianity and perverted Christianity people such as HUMANism. Some people don't understand the difference. They are too dumbed down and greedy and purposely pervert the Bible and Christianity to accomplish their HUMANistic, greedy, godless agenda or being a parasite.

MacCarney was stoned for decades on marijuana along with Linda Mac. Saturday Night Live used to joke about this with funny skits where one was guy was Sinatra and he calls the McCartney impersonator Ringo

Maybe the Mexican crowd attacking Paul’s bus after a concert there rattled his brain? Or, it could depend on the meaning of ‘great.’ As in, he’s doing great on the golf course. Or he’s doing great taking the US down the tube. Lots of possibilities here.

Great examples for the kids.

I can take pot or leave it. I got busted in Japan for it. I was nine days without it and there wasn't a hint of withdrawal, nothing.

Paul McCartney

I'm sure other drugs temporarily or permanently replaced the weed.

Royality speaks. What a pitiful excuse for the limo-liberals. They want to ban free speech cause they really can’t afford honest commentary on fools like “Sir” paul and Algore.

Paul, you are now a doughy former musician who needs to stick to what you know best. No lectures, please.

Perhaps this is a good time for me to come out of the closet, so to speak. I was born in ‘51, yet I do NOT like ONE song the Beatles have ever done—not one! And the same is true of Elvis. I just couldn’t make myself like them, regardless of the fact that everyone else my age has always been nuts about both. Guess that enabled me to also resist B.O.’s wiles . . .
