No, no, no. She’s a supporter and it was a perfect ‘frustration’ question for him. She didn’t disagree with or call him on any of the horrendous things he’s done in his first two years. She didn’t accuse him, she just asked, ‘Is it going to get better?’ It was a cupcake on a silver platter for him.

To: I still care

“But she is feeling deeply”

I have relatives like that. One is convinced that the Democrats are going to solve the problems. Confront with facts and you get a “Bush’s fault” or “I don’t know” or “hope and change” etc. answer. The assumption these people THINK goes a synapse too far.

I wonder what his stuttering and stammering answer to her was. Anybody know?

There’s a glimmer of hope still.

Hate to even use that word now.

At the least, she bought herself a tax audit.

Have you seen the YouTube of Obama omitting the “by our Creator” phase from the Declaration of Independence?

Well,...In his answer to this woman I'm willing to bet my entire 401K that you would see the same pursed lips and the multiple eye blinks that is seen on the above YouTube.

See post #35. As soon as I hit the post button I saw it ... and off it went! It does sound like an interesting idea to use it for people who have been called racist over and over again. Thanks for no laughing at me too much, had I made that mistake on a liberal sight I would have been ripped apart.

Thanks!

Some good follow up questions would have been: "What's with the purple lips?" and "How long will it take to get your wedding ring fixed?"

It was a setup question (they all were) and according to this NYTimes story there was another contentless question along the very same answer-friendly lines:

If she had spent 15 minutes checking his background in 2008, she wouldn’t have this problem.

So true ...
