There’s the mantra that conservatives should echo: Where’s the plan?

[justa-hairyape]

So someone actually asked Obama if he could suck up all the oil spilled with a straw ? Was it a 5 year old kid ? Or perhaps, Obama asked his experts if we could suck it all up with a straw ? And of course those experts said, no.

Awesome image.
Pelosi has that- What the heck are we doing look in her eyes.
Biden has that- Yeah baby. A giant sucking device should be fun look in his eyes.
Obama has that- Start the Giant Sucking Machine look in his eyes.

CZAR OF SUCK

Bur how do you KNOW you can’t suck it up with a straw? I bet you haven’t even tried, have you? I can’t stand such a negative attitude in a president. Weren’t you the guy who was going to make the ocean levels fall? C’mon, next time you are down that way, you really need to try. Kneel down on that beach, put that straw in, and suck. And if at first you don’t suck oil, try, try, try again.

The Kenyan Clown has another pratfall.

Hey Obama! Don’t get snippy!

I still think Carter was worse. I have not had to sit in a car for hours waiting for gas. I did that as a 10 year old and was so pissed off. Obama is going to have to do something like that to make him beat out Carter for that title.

>>They used hay on the big spills in the 70s.

No one in Chicago is going to get rich on selling hay.

Did`nt he say the seas would stop rising when he was elected? I thought Captain Kickass could do anything. Whats he gonna do next. Go on tv and cry?

[thethirddegree]

I disagree. Obama has more than enough suck power to do the job.

[cranked]

Yo Jack Squat.....going down there and actually attempting to suck up what you can with a straw would be far more productive than anything that your doing now.....idiot.

“solution”

Always wondered what an Admin Mod looked like. Figgers they would pick someone who showed some restraint. :-))

"I can't suck it up with a straw"

Maybe ol' Ben can roll up a bunch of hundreds for you, Bam.

[RegulatorCountry]

Is he trying to be humorous or is he losing it!??

Sucking it up with a straw would capsize this continent.

[N. Theknow]

When it appeared that a certain procedure would work, Top Hat?, he was, "I have been on this since Day One. I am responsible. I am in charge."

Now that it has gotten a whole lot worse, "I've done all I can do, more than anyone else has done, more than can possibly be done."

"And Oh, by the way, the Republicans in Congress and George Bush are responsible for this."

[McGarnickle]

Actually this sounds exactly like something Mayor Daley would say in one of his press conferences. Chicago thug politics at its finest. When you can’t defend your own actions, just ridicule the opposition.

[potlatch]

Suck it up or suck him down......

[NoGrayZone]

Try it barry...you just might like it!
