Obama flubs in guest book, dates visit "2008"

C'mon. Getting the day wrong, yeah. But the year? By 3 years? Can we have any fun with this guy? Any at all?

I suppose, but the issue is.

A: This is not a big deal.
B: It's not really that funny either

:shrug:

Maybe it's funny for the folks who genuinely laugh at the Hosts jokes on Americas funniest home videos, but for the rest of us, it's a mistake we make at least a few times a year, and we don't care, just a minute ago I wrote 2007 on an audit form... oh well.

*sigh

I am just sitting here in absolute disbelief, at something so stupid, so unewsworthy, so unimportant, even being considered, for a moment, to be an article...

BEING AN ARTICLE.

Oh, and the OP's commentary just gets half a lol, it'd be funny if it wasnt so pathetic.

They did it to Bush ALL THE TIME.
 
They did it to Bush ALL THE TIME.

THEN LETS BE JUST AS PATHETIC!

Nah mate, there were things that people made fun of Bush about that were unfair, and things that were actually pretty funny, but then again Bush made fun of himself too so..

You arent REALLY stupid enough to try to pretend that listing three times (when I acknowledged that he does on the rarest of occasions) when Stewart has gone ofter democrats somehow disproves that he is has made a career out of attacking republicans are you? I mean...seriously...do YOU even believe that?

I have to admit though Vance, I've seen Stewart go after democrats numerous times, but have you considered the fact that, essentially, republicans just give him more material.

I mean, if I had to pick the side, that offered the most amount of comedy, its republicans, I mean

"90% of services PP provides are abortions" - "That was not intended to be a factual statement".

I really don't know why you get so upset about it... Republicans and democrats are a joke, and I'd be ashamed to be associated with either party.
 
No. You're not fighting fire with fire. You're throwing fuel on the flames. You don't understand, or think - you just react, and it's always with negativity.

This fire has been going on long before I began debate boards and will continue whether I'm here or not.

Leftists, Progressives or Liberals - or whatever banner they're hiding behind today- would never complain about the Herman Cain post above and will be happily racist if it suits their political purposes.

They'll still be laughing at the George Bush is a retard/ Sarah Palin. is a moron jokes long after they've left office because that largely the extent of their political repertoire and imagination.

They'' soon be doing the same with any other Republican candidates. They cannot see the issues at all clearly so they concentrate on the personalities. It's adolescent, ignorant and serves as the constituency for Left wing politics.

Nah...I REALLY dont believe that considering the treasure trove of stupidity that is BOTh political parties that the reason Stewart targets republicans more than democrats is that republicans give him more material. I TRULY believe the reason he does (and can we at least agree...he DOES) is because he is liberal and playing to a liberal audience...and Jet...who CARES? I dont blame him, I dont fault him, hell...I watch him and laugh when he ridicules both. I EXPECT political pundits to lampoon politicians. Its a time honored tradition handed down since the earliest days of print media.

Its not SIGNIFICANT that Obama goofed or made a goof worthy of some amount of ridicule. You KNOW it happens to republicans as well. Obama is guilty of having a go at people for their stupidity as well. I simply find it mind bending that so many people simply cannot have a sense of humor for Gods sake. I especially find it comical that people lack the grace to be able to laugh along with others at their mis-steps.

Im not upset about the joking. Im a little...I dont know...Id say 'surprised' but it happens so frequently that Im not surprised any more...maybe 'flumoxed' is a better word...at the number of people that feel the kneejerk need to respond with this broom up the ass defense of his occasional acts of stupidity.

Actually, what you are doing is demonstrating how extreme conservatives are as bad as the extreme liberals, making the fire worse. If that is your goal, good job.

I do give you credit, though, for admitting that you are part of the problem.

The problem was there well before I came along.

The first debate board i joined was with the BBC and I was my usual polite self for several months. Any Americans who joined these boards were the same way. The strong anti American of the BBC and their loyal supporters was everywhere and I naively assumed that we could resolve this misunderstanding with a few kind words and facts. But it was impossible. Soon the Americans and myself began responding in kind. And you might have noticed that i still get attacked by Europeans, though of course there are fewer of them here, for supporting the American people.

But now I'm moving away from my support, or at least withholding it for a while until they decode whether or not they should take themselves as seriously as they once did. A generation of Americans has gone from a largely independent and free people to one that is dependent on the government, wants more of the same, and will viciously attack anyone who gets in their way. I still say though that Canadians have the finest neighbors anywhere, with the Aussies and Kiwis being right on par.

We see the riots in Europe. and of course they'll get worse, and we'll see the same thing occurring soon in the US. Like the Europeans they'll embrace political beliefs over financial reality. Though the European problems run much deeper culturally, the consequences will be quite similar.

This thread was not posted as a joke. Look at the comments by the hard-core Cons -- they're not saying "Ha, isn't that kind of funny," they're saying "See, this is absolute proof that Obama is stupid and not fit to be President." These are the same people that do not laugh when Sarah Palin or Michele Bachmann say something incredibly, mind-bogglingly stupid.
 
No, criticizing a person for mistakenly writing down the wrong date is petty. What's next? Obama forgets to tuck in his shirt and the fright-wing fringe demands his removal from ofice? You people are seriously sad. Any serious conservative would consider you an embarrassment. But hey, if that's all you have, then you don't have ****. Good luck in 2012. You're going to need it.

Certainly it's petty and this pettiness in the media, as I recall, began with Richard Nixon, then moved on to Ronald Reagan and then Dan Quayle. Now its all over the place.

When the Left is racist, and don't respond to racism from their own kind, when political opponents are referred to as "morons" and "retards", without a murmur of protest from the Left, then it seems safe to say the bickering will continue.

Regardless of why THIS thread was posted the simple fact is that the president pulled a public boner and he is gonna get a little taste for it. This president is not nor should he be any more immune to it that any other president or public figure. Do you believe all the jabs and jobes at Bush, Reagan, hell...Clinton and Carter...that they were all done in good fun? Keeerist, kids...its no wonder people attribute Der Oneder and his followers as a Messianic cult.

No. I posted evidence of Jon Stewart going after the entire party, which goes contrary to your claim.

I also posted evidence that when he goes after democrats, he seems to go after the entire party and not one or two. But here let's look up "Stewart blasts democrats":

Google

3.9 million hits.

vs

Stewart blasts GOP:

Google

3.6 million hits.

However do tell us VanceMack. How many links would I have to post in order to succesfully disprove your ridiculous assertion about a show you clearly don't watch?

Let's do 20. I'll post 20 examples of Jon Stewart blasting the Democrats for different issues. Deal? ;)

I find it all funny, really, once I get passed the whole "Our President is a retard" thing.
 
Better to be seen as petty by thin skinned Libs when we're just poking fun, than being treasonous back stabbers who would vote to send troops to war for political expediency and then turn around and thrust a dagger in their backs when they needed support most... also for political expediency

Also better to be seen as petty when just poking fun than subscribing to an ideology that has to lie and deceive about who they are and what they want to do to win elections.

You see, I value truth highly, and it is why I became a Conservative and why I find Leftists so vile. The Left promotes a morally bankrupt philosophy. It may sound nice and compassionate on the surface, and appeals to the young and idealistic, the intellectually lazy, to the ignorant and parasitic, but it's a proven failure... time after time after time.

You folks love to point to places like Sweden... but it wasn't their socialist system that made them a success... in fact it harmed them.

All of that BS doesn't change the fact that you're bitching about a man who wrote down the wrong date on a piece of paper. Let me repeat myself: you're bitching about a man who wrote down the wrong date on a piece of paper. And you want me to take you seriously? Get a grip. You're not that important.

And then you're trying to play the old "Democrats are unpatriotic" card. I have know idea how you went from "the wrong date" to "Democrats hate the troops"; but only a diehard rightie could make that transition.

BUt since you went there, tell me this: if the GOP loves the troops so much; if the GOP doesn't like playing politics with the troops, then why would they attach riders to a defense spending bill; riders like defunding Planned Parenthood and defunding the EPA; riders that they knew would cause the bill to be voted down in the Senate or vetoed by Obama. If that defense spending bill was so important "for the troops", then why not pass a stand alone defense spending bill without riders that have absolutely nothing to do with defense?

You're a joke. Get back to me when you can muster up enough integrity for me to take you even somewhat seriously.

It's easy to see why Obama supporters are being ridiculed.

Barrack Obama did not write down the wrong date on a piece of paper, as you twice erred in one post. He wrote down the wrong date in the distinguished visitors book in the historical Westminster Abbey.

He is helpless without his teleprompter.

President Obama signs wrong date in Westminister Abbey book, meets with Prince William & Kate

It's easy to see why serious people laugh at the idiot fringe of the GOP/Teathugs. You're still bitching about the wrong date on a piece of paper (no matter how important you try and make it seem).

And you want to talk about a teleprompter? Here you go. Get back to me when you have a clue. After you've pulled your clueless head from your partisan ass, of course.

You call a rather important and historical guest book in Westminster Abbey 'a piece of paper" and yet call others 'the idiot fringe"??? It seems quite obvious you do not understand the difference between a book and a piece of paper, never having read the former.

The British are now laughing at him with the wrong date, the speech gaffe, the screwed-up toasts, and so on, He is being ridiculed internationally and you think its only the Republican Party and the Tea Party who are laughing at him? Wrong-o!

He is an embarrassment to the United States and the people who voted for the guy. It's all over the place and from all sides! You might defend the poor man in his international embarrassments and offer up some sympathy, but that doesn't mean you should support him politically as the best America can do. That's carrying loyalty too far.

That's right, I called you part of the idiot fringe. Because that's what you are. I'll tell you what. If this comes up in the 2012 debates, I'll buy you a cookie. But I'm guessing this already non-issue gets forgotten about in 2 days by everybody except for partisan hacks like yourself. You're clueless and not even worth talking to anymore.

Sure it will be forgotten about in a few days, and he'll screw up again.

This series of minor screw-ups is not that important but the accumulation of them, along with the mishandling of the economy and international policies, is what will stick in the voters minds come election day. He still has a way to go before he's at Jimmy Carter's level but he seems to be living in the same area code.

Read any good pieces of paper lately?

Yes, he takes on Libs once in a rare while. But let's not try to say he's anything close to bipartisan. He's a hard lefter.

I mean, if I had to pick the side, that offered the most amount of comedy, its republicans,...
Really? Not even close. The Lib ideology is idiotic out of the box, it's the party of irresponsibility, and they go to great extremes to promote and defend it.

I really don't know why you get so upset about it... Republicans and democrats are a joke, and I'd be ashamed to be associated with either party.
ROTFLOL... you're in lock step with the Dem/NDP and fail to realize it.

I suggest you go back and read my posts, because you just shot yourself in the mug.

For the record, it wasn't just any piece of paper.

And then you're trying to play the old "Democrats are unpatriotic" card. I have know idea how you went from "the wrong date" to "Democrats hate the troops"; but only a diehard rightie could make that transition.
Go back and read the posts and you'll see why.

BTW, when you vote to send troops to war, the most serious vote a member of Congress will ever pass, and you do it for political expediency, it's worse than unpatriotic. When you go a step further and stick it to the troops when they're fighting... for political expediency it's the absolute lowest of the low. It's no "card" pointing it out either... it's a disgusting bit of modern American history.

You cherry picked a few posts, got my responses about Obama's date ****ed up totally, and tried your very best to defend the indefensible, morally bankrupt, treasonous Libs.

You are a Lib... no question.

And all thin skinnedness from the high minded Libs that attempted to discredit a VP candidate for misspelling potato during a presidential campaign.

And what makes the Libs even more foolish, probably because the mainstream media was almost totally controlled by the Libs at the time, is that potato can be spelled either way. It is regional.

Quayle would have known what year it was though, and was aware of how many States there were.

I'll give a point to Stewart for being less of a dick than Bill Maher though. Maher's a guy who makes a good living with just one punch line.
