I’m sorry did I miss it?... Did he plug the damn hole??

Nawww. He's got an early tee time tomorrow. Soon, though, when the committees give him their recommendations.

[Thunder90]

Sorry. Watching Deadliest Catch rerun on Discovery Channel. It’s more entertaining than watching the TOTUS.

[kcvl]

Obama had NOTHING on his desk! He looked so little behind that desk...

[mnehring]

For those who missed it, I'll summarize...

I'm from the government and I'm here to help- Barack Obama.

[yield 2 the right]

Poll bouncer for sure, which way it remains to be seen.

[ColdOne]

He blessed the fleet?? What?

[Pearls Before Swine]

He had a wedding photo on his desk, No? Yes?

I didn't notice, sorry. I was so taken by the camera zooming in on his dark, hypnotic eyes and wandering hands.

[carton253]

I agree with your post.

[mylife]

Is she in a bunker? what’s with the echo?

[bvw]

I suspect that there’s more but that’s a great list.

[TheShaz]

So how bad was it? I just cannto stomach watching the guy on TV.

I trust the opinion of those in the forum.

How did the speech go? How is the MSM going to try to spin it?

Why should we pass a NEW law, when Hussein cannot enforce EXISTING LAW?

For 20 years there has been a LAW ON THE BOOKS about Oil Spills.

Hussein, start kicking your own miserable ass!

THE OIL POLLUTION ACT OF 1990 CHARGES THE WHITE HOUSE WITH CLEANING UP THE MESS. SO YOU HAVE FAILED BIG TIME, HUSSEIN!

OPA, among other things, amended Section 311 of the federal Clean Water Act. Section 311 now provides in part that: (A) If a discharge, or a substantial threat of a discharge, of oil or a hazardous substance from a vessel, offshore facility, or onshore facility is of such a size or character as to be a substantial threat to the public health or welfare of the United States (including but not limited to fish, shellfish, wildlife, other natural resources, and the public and private beaches and shorelines of the United States),
the President shall

(notice the word SHALL; not "MAY" not "CAN" not "PERHAPS", but SHALL!)

direct all Federal, State, and private actions to remove the discharge or to mitigate or prevent the threat of the discharge.

(B) In carrying out this paragraph, the President may, without regard to any other provision of law governing contracting procedures or employment of personnel by the Federal Government–

(i) remove or arrange for the removal of the discharge, or mitigate or prevent the substantial threat of the discharge; and

(ii) remove and, if necessary, destroy a vessel discharging, or threatening to discharge, by whatever means are available.

P.S.: CNN reports that on the day of the memorial for the victims (a month after the explosion), HUSSEIN ATTENDED A FUNDRAISER. Nice move there, jerkoff. Real caring.
