prole Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Ted Stevens, Republican elder statesman, lion of the Senate, convicted felon. Him, Trent Lott, and Tom DeLay should start a doo-wop group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairweather Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 (edited) Unfortunately, there are a few democrats who could join that chorus. DC is a cess-pool. I've read that Harry Reid might be on his way out (of his leadership position) soon too. He's got ethics issues-a-plenty...and Hillary needs to be thrown a bone. BTW; I thought it was pretty un-classy of Obama to take a shot at Nancy Reagan today. And was it just my imagination, or was Obama talking about his tax plan in the past-tense?

prole Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 (edited) You can think of it as a kind of coded message: "The cat's out of the bag, Reagan is toast. God is dead.

Doug Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 (edited) Someone asked him about how he was going to choose the new dog. He said something to the effect of "I'm not going to do a Nancy Reagan and have a seance" or something of that ilk. Two things come to mind 1) At least he could fucking articulate the word "Seance". 2) Please explain how that was disrespectful. Would it give you a warm and fuzzy if he orchestrated the occupation of a middle east country? Come here fairwever, wet me give you some hugs!! :kisss: Edited November 7, 2008 by Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bug Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 "I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Regan thing about doing any seances." Poor choice of words. Unpresidential. Black man beats up old lady. He definately screwed the pooch on that one and should apologize profusely before he gets raked over the coals by her highness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Nancy Reagan blows goats. She's gotten as much respect as she's due, though perhaps not enough for running Ronnie through his final Alzheimer presidential years. Betty Ford gets sucked up to way too much too, if you ask me. I guess Nancy just relied on astrologers for advice, not seances. Personally, I prefer consulting sheep entrails, something I'll be doing tomorrow. Apparently it was Hillary Clinton who held a seance in the White House, trying to contact Eleanor Roosevelt. Pundits think Obama confused the two first ladies, but I think it's equally likely he knew exactly what he was doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STP Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 No, no, no. You got it all wrong. Nancy was into astrologers. Hillary was the one into seances with Eleanor Roosevelt (Jean Huston style). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvashtarkatena Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Fuck Nancy Reagan. She's a Grey, not even human. That head! WTF? How the hell did she get to be First Lady anyway? Obama cracked a joke. Get the fuck over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Remember Nancy's drug program - "Just Say No". It was so successful that after she left D.C. she started a homeless program - their slogan - "Just Get A House" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for his ability to articulate, you obviously didn't hear the press conference. His endless stammering and inability to produce words without annoying pause is striking. No big deal really, but please don't use it to describe a virtue that clearly does not exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 thats like your opinion man. i thought he was refreshingly articulate when compared to W, who when he can't find the right word, just makes them up. it also indicates he is actually thinking, vs. reciting a prescribed talking point. i would have to agree with you that it was odd that he would crack about Mrs. Reagan though.

prole Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Perhaps he should have included references to "horny-toads" and "stuck pigs", clearing brush, or the Ole Miss football program?

mattp Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Just for grins, I just searched google looking for president-elect Bush's first press conference in 2000. It looks as if it was given by Cheney. CNN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
