He's probably distracted at the moment.
However, I have no problem with a premise when addressing you.
You are a suck egg dog.
There.
See?
Not difficult at all.
Might almost be interesting if one of you scholars could construct an actual argument based in a real premise. You know, minus all your half wit rhetoric.
Liberals are handicapped from birth by their Liberal hard wiring.
But we, charitably, pretended you were like normal people.
But you aren't.
And the verdict is in.
Liberals can not be trusted with great power.
They have clearly been shown to use great power irresponsibly.
They use it for self benefit and to oppress their partisan opponents.
They act traitorously.
They lie to the American people.
They advance hare brained schemes.
They perform incompetently.
They have no sense of what it takes to make a competent hiring practice.
They are vengeful and petty.
They are irrational.
Liberals should be forever relegated to the ranks of JUNIOR partners in the entity called the Government of the United States of America.
Where's the part where liberals differ from so called conservatives? The Republican record of achievement could easily be described in exactly the same way.

You are a masochist.
Here's the difference. Liberals and Dems not only defend him, as you do, but y'all LIKE what he is doing to America.
When the truth is that he has been a staggering failure.
Obama’s Staggering Record of Failure

President Obama’s bid to focus U.S. attention on Asia has failed to meet the lofty expectations he set three years ago in a grand pronouncement that the new emphasis would become a pillar of his foreign policy.
The result, as Obama prepares to travel to the region… has been a loss of confidence among some U.S. allies about the administration’s commitment at a time of escalating regional tensions. Relations between Japan and South Korea are at one of the lowest points since World War II, and China has provoked both with aggressive actions at sea despite a personal plea to Beijing from Vice President Biden in December.
The same story could be said of the Obama presidency on issue after issue, in foreign policy and on domestic matters. The lofty expectations and grand pronouncements of Obama–unmatched by any presidential candidate in my lifetime–have crashed against reality time and time again.
It’s not simply that Mr. Obama has fallen short of what he promised; it’s that he has been, in so many respects, a failure.
Choose your metrics. Better yet, choose Mr. Obama’s metrics:
Job creation.
Failure
Economic growth.
Failure
Improving our health-care system.
Failure
Reducing the debt.
Failure
Reducing poverty.
Failure
Reducing income inequality.
Failure
Slowing the rise of the oceans.
Failure
Healing the planet.
Failure
Repairing the world.
Failure
The Russian “reset.”
Failure
Peace in the Middle East.
Failure
Red lines in Syria.
Failure
Renewed focus on Afghanistan.
Failure
A new beginning with the Arab world.
Failure
Better relations with our allies.
Failure
Depolarizing our politics.
Failure
Putting an end to the type of politics that “breeds division and conflict and cynicism.”
Failure
Working with the other party.
Failure
Transparency.
Failure
No lobbyists working in his administration.
Failure
His commitment to seek public financing in the general election.
Failure
The list goes on and on.
By now, nearly five and a half years into the Obama presidency, objective people can draw reasonable conclusions, among which are these: Barack Obama was among the least prepared men to ever serve as presidency. It shows. He has been overmatched by events right from the start. He is an excellent campaigner but unusually inept when it comes to governing.
By temperament and experience, based on skill set and ability, Mr. Obama is much better equipped to be a community organizer than to be president of the United States.
For the sake of our nation and much of the world, I wish he had stayed on Chicago’s South Side.
Obama s Staggering Record of Failure Commentary Magazine
Senate Republican Leadership has failed to represent the values of mainstream Americans and has instead pushed an agenda that reflects the desires of special interests.
Record federal deficits continued in 2005 and, without real reform, will continue for years to come. Meanwhile, our nation’s most critical priorities – including emergency preparedness, economic security, access to affordable health care, quality education, and energy independence – have become an afterthought in the midst of the current Republican culture of corruption.
Republicans have run up historic budget deficits and refused to put us back on a course of budget discipline. Last year, the deficit reached $319 billion, higher than in any year before President Bush took office
Republicans have failed to support a measure to prohibit the Bush Administration from taking overtime pay away from an estimated six million workers. During the Bush Administration, wages have stagnated or declined, even as the cost of health care, child care, and other essential expenses has continued to climb. The Bush overtime regulations will mean millions in lost wages at a time when workers can least afford it
For the eighth year in a row, Republicans have failed to raise the minimum wage. Minimum wage employees working 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, earn $10,700 a year, $5,000 below the poverty line for a family of three. The current minimum wage fails to provide enough income to enable minimum wage workers to afford adequate housing in any area of the country
Republicans have failed to provide adequate support to employers hard hit by the activation of military reservists to serve in Iraq. For the second year in a row, Congressional Republicans blocked a bill that would have rewarded businesses that continue to pay salaries to their employees serving oversees. This provision would provide a tax credit to employers continuing to pay activated National Guard and Reserve employees and provide an additional tax credit to small businesses to help them cover the cost of temporarily replacing an employee who has been activated.
Republicans have failed to pass legislation to hold down the unprecedented increases in health care premiums for American families. Employer-sponsored health insurance increased by 9.2 percent in 2005 – more than three times the growth in wages and more than twice the rate of overall inflation. Premiums for family health coverage are now $10,880, up from $6,348 in 2000. These premium hikes are straining family finances, forcing businesses to drop coverage, and driving up the number of uninsured Americans
Republicans have failed to fully fund No Child Left Behind (NCLB) education reforms. Even though school districts are facing increasingly rigorous academic standards and new requirements for highly qualified teachers, Republicans actually reduced funding for NCLB in Fiscal Year 2006. Funding for NCLB is about $13 billion below the authorized level
Republicans failed to stop Bush Administration efforts to continue weakening current environmental laws and have failed to provide critical funding for environmental protection and natural resources programs, including clean air, clean water, enforcement, land acquisition, and urban parks
Republicans have failed to provide necessary funding to clean up toxic waste sites. One in four Americans lives within four miles of a toxic waste site. Republicans have looked the other way as the Administration has reduced or eliminated toxic emissions reporting requirements and limited the public’s access to information on toxics risks
Republicans have not responded to recent increases in Medicare Part B premiums. Monthly Part B premiums have almost doubled since 2000 – from $45.50 in 2000 to $88.50 in 2006
