Gee, I wonder if the Obama's pundits at MSNBC were allowed to see these.. surely they need new material and would repeat these daily and repeatedly, like they do for Republicans.

Yes these are all untrue! Obama is in the words of smart people..
And remember we have the "smartest" President right???
"Yeah. Even aside from the fact of electing the first African American President and whatever one’s partisan views this is a guy whose IQ is off the charts — I mean you cannot say that he is anything but a very serious and capable leader and — you know — You and I have talked about this for years … … our system doesn’t allow those people to become President, those people meaning people THAT smart and THAT capable
Imus: What is his IQ?
Historian Michael Beschloss: Uh. I would say it’s probably –

and this "smartest" president thinks 1,600 years is in the "long term"..

"And if we are able to slow the growth of health care costs by just one-tenth of 1 percent each year -- one-tenth of 1 percent -- it will actually reduce the deficit by
$4 trillion over the long term."

So 1/10th of 1 percent of $2.555 trillion (health care costs in 2010) is $2.5 billion.
If the $4 trillion deficit is cut by $2.5 billion a year...
how long is Obama's stated " long term"...
Dividing $4 trillion by $2.5 billion... how many years is that??? -----
1,600 years!!!

Think about it folks.. the smartest President evidently doesn't KNOW how big $2.5 billion is MUCH LESS $ 4 trillion.. he just knows 1,600 years is a "long term"!!!
 
Lord, you lot are cranky. It's Friday night. It's the weekend. The holiday season. And you're gonna have another Obama bitchfest?

Hey.. don't go impugning me... Sweet Boop's ....:D

I'm not bitchen... I'm laughing...:lol:

..and you..

''Shocking news out of Illinois today. Governor Rod Blagojevich was arrested on corruption charges, including the allegation that he was selling Barack Obama's vacant senate seat. Now, I personally am surprised Obama even needed a seat. I thought he just levitated.'' —Stephen Colbert
