If Obama Was A Football Coach He'd Be Gone

If Obama were Republican, he wouldn't be President.

If Obama were white, Tea Baggers would love him.

If Obama were Republican, he wouldn't be President.

He also wouldn’t be Kenyan.

 

[ConservaDerrps]

If Obama was a girl and had a first name of Shoshana he'd be Shoshana Obama.

If the Republicans were a football team, they would be penalized for Unsportsmanlike conduct and delay of game.

Actually they'd be disqualified the instant the refs made a call they didn't agree with. They'd insist their interpretation of the rules is the only one possible, that the refs are idiots, and they'd attempt to continue to play ignoring the refs.

In addition they would try to rewrite the score at the end of the game to show they actually won

Adjusted for inflation of course...

It's hard to motivate a team where the star quarterback can only be paid 2X what the locker maintenance worker gets.

It's hard to motivate a team when the lights go out on the field when the motion stops.

It's hard to motivate a team that has to travel to away games on high speed rail.

It's hard to motivate a team where the cheer squad gets paid the same.

It's hard to motivate a team that gets taxed for making it to the playoffs.

It's hard to motivate a team who has a 30 day wait for Cat Scan.

It's hard to motivate a team by telling them that their heritage is evil.

It's hard to motivate a team that has 8% unfilled openings in the special team squad.

But the 1/2 time talks in the locker room are MUCH better right now since the teleprompter went in.

(Couldn't hold my neutrality -- just too damn tempting of a thread).

Damn -- emptied the room again.. Kinda feeling like Peppi La Phew..

Did I say sumthin stupid? Or did we just run out of beer?

Yet the conservatives think government employees should all be paid median US income or less regardless of the actual work they do.

Hey, if Obama were President of the United States, he'd sign a healthcare bill based on a model developed by Republicans and supported by Mitt Romney, and then a little while later Republicans and Romney would scream and whine about it.

He would be coach of the year after dealing with shit the last dirt bag left , you fucking people act as if the American people have amnesia or something & then you trott out Romney it's laughable .

Obama continued right along bush's playbook. And you're right Romney is laughable at times but we need a change cuz Obama's playbook sucks.

Bush supported a healthcare mandate and the repeal of the BUsh tax cuts?

Really?

when you're handed the 1976 Tampa Bucs you can't win in one year.

Well, he's had 4 years, unlimited draft picks (ie EVERY single bill he wanted was passed) and he's spent about 450,000x's the milions the Bucs spent.

I love how the liberals act like Obama has had "one" year....

It's been 4 years of catastrohpic failure - the likes of which has never before been witnessed in America.

 

[L.K.Eder]

That's a good analogy MudWhistle.

Americans also care more about the performance of their favorite Sports Teams than the American Government.

Plenty of people know all sorts of mindless stats about a sports team, but they know almost nothing about how their gov't works and what it's been doing.

that's a HORRIBLE analogy.

Yes they would - because Romney's healthcare bill was constitutional at the state level, while Obama's was unconstitutional at the federal level.

It's the three concepts that liberals just can't grasp - Constitution, Federal, and State.

He's had three and a half, more than enough time to turn the economy around to an acceptable rate of growth and level of unemployment.

it's like dog years, one year of coaching is like 7 years of a president.

Problem with that is Ronald Reagan was left with a bigger mess by Jimmy Carter and he worked it out and he even had to work with a Democrat congress.

Face it.......the excuses just don't fly. They don't fly in sports and they shouldn't fly in politics.

The analogy doesn't fly either. The coach of a football team isn't hamstrung by a coaching staff (aka Congress) determined to see him fail.

Whaaaaaaaa!!

 

[mudwhistle]

Obama offers nothing but excuses for all of the failures he's had.

Are you kidding? Some of the most winningest coaches in recent history pile on the excuses in the face of defeat. At least in college. You don't watch football at all, do you?

More people are going on disability than are finding employment

That's not true. There are more new disability claims than there are net jobs increases, but there are less net disability claims than net job increases. The article you will link to supposedly prove me wrong will actually agree with me. You read the headline and probably some of the article but because you're an idiot you were easily misled.

I watch it and played it.

That's not what Romney thought in 2009.

Maybe you've heard of the Supreme Court's latest decision? Or does your Constitution not have an Article III? The ACA IS Constitutional. The highest court in the land says so. You're argument holds no fucking water.
