President Obama Takes a Break at Camp David

It would have been easier to just answer "No" :lol:

In post#34 you said






When Obama did it, you compared to what bush did, which you described as a mistake. It's a mistake when Obama does it

When the republicans do it, it's a great "tactic" :lol:

PS - I am going to have to INSIST that you limit your personal attacks. Your posts are becoming incoherent in addition to being against the rules. I don't alert on every violation, but your posts are stuffed with personal attacks to the point that it is making any reasonable discussion impossible


Bored.. try something else. :coffeepap:
 
Obama get your ass back to Washington and do your ****ing job. I do not pay you to go to Camp David and relax. Your a public official and a leader get off your ass and go to work, i thought you were not supposed to be like Bush.. .
 



Subtext: Except for me and Michelle, who by the way just returned from an Africa trip costing taxpayers 500K on an outreach trip promoting “youth leadership, education, health and wellness”, which are very laudable things. I wonder (to use Mr. Obama's words) "what are we paying for government and what are we getting for it." I agree - a good question. What did we get for the 500K, because the media coverage seems to follow Michelle around as she's sightseeing which doesn't quite follow the FLOTUS narrative.

They look like they had a good time though.


I realize how hard it can sometimes be when a discussion becomes passionate, but could you at least try to stay on topic. This discussion has nothing to with Michelle or BO's trip to Africa

So you don't want to explain why you think it's a mistake when Obama does it, and a great tactic when the repubs do it?

Can't say that I blame you. If I made such a ridiculous argument, I'd want to change the subject too.

No change necessary - just nothing you have to say is worthwhile. I gave you a chance and you decided to be dishonest. Dime a dozen. :coffeepap:
 
Well, it's all a game - everyone bluffs, shows how serious they are and shows they can walk away from the table.

So you admit the Republicans are playing a game with America's economy. Yeah real serious the Republicans are :roll: No wonder they shouldn't be back in power.

Republicans want to be clowns, they will be voted out soon enough.

They're both playing games... anyone who says different is selling something.
 
It's nice to see you say something that's actually true

It's nice to see you posting without including the word "Bush" or "wingnut".

He knows he isn't getting re-elected, so he's trying to have fun, while it lasts.

Wouldnt you?

I know I would be in AF ONE, flying low over the houses of people I don't like. I might even open the door and take a leak on them.

Do people actually believe statements like this or are they just trying to be funny?

Oh, I believe it and although you want admit, you know it's true.

lol nah

Even if Obama doesn't get reelected, he in no way "knows that" right now...he beats every potential Republican challenger in just about every poll, including swing states, and including those Republicans with the highest name recognition (such as likely nominee Mitt Romney). So it's not impossible for the GOP to defeat him next year...but it is far from a foregone conclusion.

And even if Obama DID believe he was gonna lose, your suggestion is that rather than taking the next year and a half to turn that around, he's simply "having fun"...lol. Based on his golf outing with John Boehner, and his 4th of July weekend vacation. What sort of person lives in such a fantasy world and actually believes such cartoonish assumptions?

Having said all that, the post was not even worth responding to in the first place - it clearly comes from a person who will blindly disapprove of Obama whether he takes a 4th of July vacation (he's lazy!) or ignores the holiday (he's unpatriotic!)...so shame on me for giving it the time of day.

Yeah and all the polls last year predicted that the Dems would keep control of Congress, too. Polls predicted that Gore and Kerry would win by landslides.

You're missing the point. One day Obama suggests that the Senate work through the holiday, then the next day Obama trots off to Camp David, for the holiday. That's piss poor leadership. I don't care who ya are.

Ummm....what are you talking about? It was widely assumed that the GOP was going to take over the House and possibly even the Senate as well.

Obama suggested the Senate stay to finish the work that the Senate has not finished yet. Obama, as you may have heard, is no longer in the Senate.

He's the leader of the free world. He should be leading. He should have made time for lunch Friday. That's what a leader does, but then again, we're talking about Obama.

Why would he have lunch with a man who said his mission was make sure Obama wouldn't get reelected? This partisan crap should never be tolerated!
 
Moderator's Warning:
Everyone needs to cease the personal attacks and focus on the topic.

It isn't Obama's mission to see that Republicans are voted out of Congress? This was Obama's chance to be the bigger man, but as we expected, he blew it.
