100 Gazillion Gallons Later-Obama to Meet BP CEO

[Islandborn]

Obama to meet BP Chairman at White House June 16 | Reuters (http://www.reuters.com/article/idUKNAHO38451220100610?type=companyNews)

I have to chuckle at the thought if George Bush was president during the oil spill........the hypocricy on display is amazing.

The Presidents inexpierience and modest political background is on full display for all the world to see. Thats why all our enemies are so emboldened at this time....they KNOW he is weak and in serious electoral trouble.

[Islandborn]

last week all the white house staffers had a giant water gun fight and got drunk.....with TWO gulf wars and a massive oil spill raging.

Are Obama staffers overexposed? - Marin Cogan and John F. Harris - POLITICO.com (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0610/38374.html)

Really....I can see the headlines already if Bush were president and this was his amateurish staff playing while the oh so sensitive enviroment died like it is.

[oldhaole]

Lets take a look at your hero GWB,s presidential record. 9/11, two wars, one over the same stuff spewing in the gulf, Katrina, recession, bank meltdown and I can go on. And you act like this mess is Obama's fault. If GWB was still president, my guess is that Dick Chaney would be "working" with BP to figure out a way to get a BP bailout.


This mess is BP's fault. And Republicans want the American taxpayer to pay for it. While BP pays a divedend to their shareholders. Right now Republicans are holding up a bill to raise the oil damage cap from 75 million to 10 billion. And since the Tea Party is the Republican Party I guess this spill should not upset you at all. After all, Big Oil owns you, lock, stock, and barrel.


A way back you were braging on how Harry Reid was toast. Wan'a put some money on that? :D


Oh, and Fox and Politico are not sources.

the funny thing is instead of addressing what is going on u jump on him for his gwb thing.as if obama is doing a great job,then the fox news and so on lmao so let me guess the real news comes from who?cnn,cbs,cnbc,??let me know so i can gauge how brainwashed you are too...

oh and btw if we are going to blame it on the last in office will we ever get anywhere?no the fact is obama stated many times "i know how to fix america"i can't tell you any of it until you elect me but i know how to fix america.1 thing you don't do during a major crisis is go on vacation.

I jump Him? The OP made a comment. It was he, not I that first brought up America's Worst President. Please read the comment before replying. And do you want to point out anything I said about Obama doing such a "great job" anywhere in my post? And you think I'm brainwashed? Hell, you are seeing things.


That is a joke. This last year has been one crisis after another. The last guy in charge took more vacation days of any president before him. He took his while New Orleans drowned. 1600 dead. When would YOU think its OK to go on vacation?

The sad thing is while you hope for Obama's failure, you care nothing of the cost to our country. You don't get that Obama's failure would be America's failure. That is a cost you seem happily willing for others to bear, Like a giant oil spill, just to have a way to attack him. To blame him. And, to me, that is just small and petty.

If you care, I think we will be looking at a lost decade. I think we have many years of economic turmoil ahead. That should make you very happy.

Good Luck.

lmao u love to assume.our country was going down way b4 obama or bush,everything you see happen is done on purpose.obama is just a puppet like all the ones b4 him.when you say i hope for his failure well you are right about that.because if he goes along as planned we are all fucked.open your brain and think a min,well first do you know what is really going on with this spill?here watch this

YouTube - US oil spill explained (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLiqvZOP8TY) this was done in may so the 5000 per day is way off.

notice how they are over fucking with the pipe when there is a shut off valve on the well head?ok lets say there was no shut off valve"which there is" you mean to tell me they drill raw wells all the time and cap them no problem but now they don't know shit about it???come on,did you know they are catching around 10k barrels a day worth of oil?plenty enough to turn a buck then instead of putting all of this on bp they"our own gov" have raised the tax 3 times with some other bs tax on top of that.guess who is fitting the bill? americans are.everything obama is doing reeks of gov agenda.all those fishermen wanting to go out and clean up this shit nope can't do it.

did you know mr great obama resigned the emergency act "something bush put in place b4 he left office" that allows him to over ride the house and senate?he could say right now do this and this and so on he could say to the people that have great ideas like this. YouTube - CWRoberts Presentation 2.wmv (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5SxX2EntEo)

go and get to it,instead he sits on his hands. also i don't recall bush going on vacation but if he did the obama types were the ones jumping all in bush's ass about everything he did.now obama is in office and lets not forget your people "dems/libs" have control of the house and senate.yet the same old shit is still going on and even more so.i think obama is bush's offspring.everything he looked down at bush for doing he has taken and did more with it than bush did.

[oldhaole]

when you say i hope for his failure well you are right about that.because if he goes along as planned we are all fucked.open your brain and think a min



I rest my case. :thumbsup:

[Islandborn]

My old friend Bush huh.......yea I hated Bush/Cheney......and stupidly voted for the Commander Incompetant......whose administration passed this oil well with flying colors 1 year ago.

Bush is gone......how long will Obama and old hippies stuck in 1962 try and use him as a crutch for his ENORMOUS shortcomings and failed policies?

sure Bush and Cheney get some blame, right behind our CURRENT president who is #2 behind the BP CEO.

BamBam's administration looks WEAK.......and If it was a hurricane that had hit......rest fucking assured the reaction time woulda been the EXACT SAME from the worthless federal govt as with Katrina.

Way to go Obama!! Looks like ya hit your new low on Gallup this week, the once beloved pollster of the president. Im sure its some racist teaparty plot though lmao.

Island.... I agree with most of your post. And I won't take issue with the Old Hippy comment. Because I am. :D


And look.... A real source.... Time qualifies in my book. Can't fight that either.


Only thing left to me...... Still think Harry Reid will lose his seat?

What makes a human being seem more delusional than tuning into FOX "news"? Bashing the current president and defending W. in the same sentence.

"Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job"
GWB aka Woody from Toy Story says to the director of FEMA. Ole "Brownie" did such a great job, he had to resign two weeks later because... oh... he did an atrocious job.

At least our current president isn't sugar coating the current situation. A situation where you can't just send the national guard into the depths of the ocean, plug the hole, then clean up the oil from the water.

But, if you don't understand, it's okay... this world has always been filled with idiots and will continue that way of course. You simpletons can go to bat for the uber-wealthy who give two shits about you other than you're there to vote for policies that help them and keep you at a disadvantage.

lmao what a big puffy head you must have on your shoulders lmao.let me know when ya get off your knees k? just because someone points out the current bs don't mean they approved of any others b4 it.guess when someone calls out the person that you have that sweaty love for. all you can do is see red and then go off on them. as if talking about the other pos that was in office b4 him would show them a thing or 2 huh lmao how weak.....

[Islandborn]

uh-oh......someone didnt eat their granola this morning. BUSH BUSH BUSH........thats all the libs got nowadays. I bet they run their midterm elections against George Bush....I bet some still think he's actually president in some hole planning on killing brown people with hurricanes.

Everything going on falls squarely on Obama's shoulders. The peeps are getting pretty tired of hearing the President whine like a broad everyday on tv and apologize and grovel anytime he leaves america. Instead of looking for "someones ass to kick" maybe the President and his cronies need to grow a pair. They are spiraling outta control and look unable to handle everything going on. Cause they have NO executive expierience and Obama cant vote "Present" anymore like he did his entire time in the senate.

By your own admission GWB is an Idiot. He had eight years as an idiot. He had 8 years to shovel his shit. You blindly followed him until Katrina, then you realized he was an idiot.

How much dammage can a pResident do in 8 years? Lots. If he had 8 years to fly us into the dirt how much time are you willing to give Obama to get us out? From your posts I'd say ...not much. The nation may not care for Obama, but they have seen how Repubs govern, and he (by far) is the lesser of two evils.

Now I can understand your bitterness. After all You gave Bush to us. Created him. Made him Governor of the great state of Tex ass. Worshiped him. Pushed him on to the rest of the nation. And you supported him for 5 years until you had your "oh Shit" moment.

You gave Bush 5 years, and in 5 months you were questioning if Obama was even born here. Sorry Dude, Bush screwed up your brand name. Obama is simply the guy following the parade cleaning all the shit (and now oil) that your guy left behind. Don't be a hater.

[sarabella]

And the beautiful Gulf Coast is screwed!

[sarabella]

Obama will do his best. He is not in bed with BIG OIL like the Bush boys are.

[Islandborn]

Really? Obama's not in bed with BP huh? Have you read the papers lately? Obama is FOR SURE in bed with BP......BP paid rent free Rahm Emanuels PLUSH Washington Penthouse and they gave how much to his campaign? Read a book sometime.

Im sure Obama's lapse in judgement on his Katrina in the gulf has NOTHING to do with his cap and tax economy killer.

[wolfgar]

oil spills are not something that can be avoided and no matter how many precautions are taken unexpected things happen. America uses 20 million barrels a day of oil. what is wrong with obama talking to ppl over the phone instead of meeting with them? his workday is long enough. anyone notice how much older he looks in the short time he has been president? you may not agree with his vision or you may not even be able to tell wtf his vision is. he is attending to YOUR needs as best he can at least give him respect for that.

the media needs controversy for ratings$$. politicians need votes. billions of ppl drink kool-aid. if you cant connect those dots just keep thinking tv is giving you real information.

I have trolls now? What does that even mean? Thanks I guess. So lets run down the socialists complaints against me so far...im racist....im from Texas so must be uneducated, im a supremist, and un-sensitive.......oh....and that I copy and paste actual news stories to back my points up......that really drives em nuts....cause all the news about them is no bueno:) Im sure if I posted some stories on the infamous racist Che, Id be the toast of the people so open minded their brains fell out;)

Bizarro World....president cozies up to all the leftist socialists in Latin America who oppress their people....pushing a man-made global warming cap & trade joke when the scie3nce behind it is questionable to say the least......bowing to all the tyrants and religous zeolots in the middle east....continuing to spend in the face 20 trillion deficits.....yea.....Bizarro World Gyps.......I'll talk slower next time.

I've often wondered if the Category Politic and current Events weren't actually meant for political actions and current events relevant to cannabis prohibition.

Its morphed into a political food fight, and yes, I'll admit some guilt.

As for you Island, you keep the food fight active, and I have yet to see you post real activism on your part in the state of Texas for medical marijuana or legalization. Are you here for that purpose or just to stir the political shit pot and play rhetorical games? Maybe if you showed some balls and action concerning cannabis and really put your ass on the line then maybe people would pay more attention to you.

I'd love to see how you'd do in Obama's shoes, but seeing how you are here, we really be fucked if you held the reins. :twocents:

i don't see anywhere on the boards that say you have to come in a thread and read what is written?you could do the same as everyone else when they see something that makes no matter to them.but the fact that you do come in and not only read but stir the shit pot yourself means 1 of 2 things.either you want to stir shit up yourself?or you want to debate the issue at hand.see the thing tho with people like you is if someone does'nt agree 110% with your way of thinking your feelings get hurt even if it has nothing against you per sa.but since you love obama you take any attack or dislike of him as an attack against you.

it ok 99% of humans do the same thing,most don't know how to step back and look at both sides i see this alot from libs not that the repubs are any better.but libs have this deep hate against anything or any one that don't bend over and kiss their asses.which is funny cause they are the ones that preach peace all the time lmao.

what you have to understand about the prez any prez that is.the prez is a figurehead nothing more.anyone that thinks he makes the final call is being lead down the path of blindness.the main fault i see with any prez is that they are the ones that really knows what is going on behind the curtains.yet they go along with it,that is their fault they know and what may have been good men to start out turns very corrupt.it comes down to do i out myself from the inner circle for the betterment of the people or do i play ball and continue the lie.only 1 i have ever seen go against them to a degree was jfk....see where that got him?

back to obama people that believe in the voting proccess and so on believe the people elected him. also believe all the promises he told to "make office"they saw him say things against bush about katrina, and how slow bush was to act.so now they see him doing the same very thing he like many others said about bush.infact everything he has done is so bush like it's like he has been lead by the nose by bush.he has not done 1 thing diffrent than the ones b4 him.his whole speech to make office was out with the same old people and in with new.im going to do something very diffrent yet he is doing the same shit.

to people this looks like a fraud and it's always going to be the other party that sees this.thats because america has been brainwashed into believing that you are not a patriot if you don't pick a side.when infact it's the people that have allowed the shit to happen by being tricked into thinking 1 side is better then the other.it's very simple really the power that be know people like diffrent flavors some like coke some like mountain dew.....

[throatstick]

I'd love to see how you'd do in Obama's shoes, but seeing how you are here, we really be fucked if you held the reins.

if i was prez first thing i would do is cut off our boarders to all.then i would bring all jobs back to the us.then i would jack min wage to atleast 10$hr.

the problem is america is not for americans anymore there is no reason in the world that anyone should be homeless.you can say what you want about homeless people but most did'nt want to be they just gave up because of all the bullshit that the gov does to people and some they hit really hard.i would set it up to where people did'nt have to work 50,60 years of their lives just to maybe own a home.

being that their is only 305 million people in the us and about half or so are children.i would have giving a grant to all adults 25 and older of a million dollars but they would have to buy atleast a car and a home with it. and put atleast 25% of the million in a 10 year ira account or the same.and atleast 25% of the rest of the money would have to go towards the schooling of a job skill of their choice.from 17 to 25 those people would get free grants for room and board,food,and schooling. they would have to work atleast 25+ hrs a week.if they pass then they get a grant for a house and car.everyone works on a 20 year cycle"they can work longer if they want with added benefits like no taxes or something.everyone pays a flat tax of 20%.

everyone pays 50$ per month kids 75$ for adults over 25 to the hospitals not ins not the gov not ins, the hospitals.this covers healthcare for them.it also cuts out the gov and the ins bs= no middle man.

i would also stop regulating things to only suit the people with big money.

i know i know you think giving everyone some money is no good.but that would jump start the economy,stop people from suffering,help america so on.and it would only cost around 150 mil or so not tens of trillions of dollars that no one knows where it went or has seen anything for.hummm

i'd also wipe out the house and senate i would hold a public vote for anything that came up....

i'd also limit the feds no more going after people for no reason.i would punish the person not the drug or anything else. i would hold people accountable for their own actions.no more well the drugs made me do it bs...

[DocJTre2]

^You make good points.

What are your thoughts on the deregulation of the oil industry? I'm not one to know it all... which party was it?

Fuck obama by the way. I don't care about him. I don't care about politics. I do, from time to time, become outraged by what is wrong with this world. Right wing, conservative, republican ideals are leading candidates in what is most wrong with this world.

yes they are the main things that are wrong with this world.like i said it's not so much fuck obama but he is part of the cause just like the rest of them.they are all 1 in the same.everyone of them lie through their teeth.they are the root cause of disinfo.they are the cause that so many people think mj is an evil drug.

the oil thing?they are the main reason we are dependant on oil like we are.the thing is people need to wake up to the fact that the power that be think of us the common folks as slaves.they don't want us to do good for ourselfs.they infact want us living pay ck to pay ck.that is how they control us,they take every right away that we have.notice anytime something comes up that can really help people they swoop in and regulate the fuck out of it to where only the top dogs that have always been in power have all the control over it?

look what just happened in colorado bill 1284.the mmj was doing great things for people caregivers could make a living and supply great herb to people in need for a good price.what does the state do they swoop in and make it to where only the top dogs with money can still go on while driving the small guy back underground.then on top of that all the lil strip malls that came back to life will now go back to nothing.people will lose alot here.

we as americans have let a select few control our every move.

back to the oil did you know the tax per barrel has trippled? then on top of that some other bs tax.so what the gov has done is passed the buck to us.we have to pay for bp's fuck up wtf?bp should be made to sell all stocks and whatever else pay for the full clean up and then on top of that pay america a enviro tax/penalty. besides that wtf are they doing in our waters anyways? i could just see america being able to do this in england...

the fact is we could come up with a new fuel system, that could cost nothing to make. the gov would come in make up some bs as to why they need to tax it. then fuck us out of it.heck they are already trying to tax carbon.i just read last nite this company or research group has found a way to take carbon and reverse it back into useable energy.the gov has patents on everything that we could use right now that would get us off oil.the same gov that preaches go green are the same ones holding it back.they are the problem....

[throatstick]

if i was the prez and this happened off of my shores.i would have told bp they had 1 week to get this done.after a week they would get pushed aside and i would have had an american team or who ever was the best come in and fix it with no delay.then i would have told bp all costs incurred they would have to pay.no expense would be withheld.

oil spills are not something that can be avoided and no matter how many precautions are taken unexpected things happen. America uses 20 million barrels a day of oil. what is wrong with obama talking to ppl over the phone instead of meeting with them? his workday is long enough. anyone notice how much older he looks in the short time he has been president? you may not agree with his vision or you may not even be able to tell wtf his vision is. he is attending to YOUR needs as best he can at least give him respect for that.

the media needs controversy for ratings$$. politicians need votes. billions of ppl drink kool-aid. if you cant connect those dots just keep thinking tv is giving you real information.

Obama can't be everywhere at once and he is doing his best to fix a screwed economy, record unemployment, 2 active wars, and the worst disaster of this type EVER.
I have to live with the fallout of this oilspill as my family lives on the Gulf Coast as well as I myself live on the gulf. But I know enough to know it is going to take a whole lot of work to fix this problem for years to come yet. But it is in no way Obama's fault, but greedy big oil! Obama answers to his daughter also who told her daddy to fix that leak. LOL

[DocJTre2]

anyone see the statements by Joe Barton?

he knelt down and took the oil industry's manhood in his mouth and tickled their balls.

i will not even go into party bashing... individually, that man just slammed the best thing Odrama has done yet.

[oldhaole]

Can you say bought and paid for by Big Oil? Give a man (or a woman) enough money and they will tell you the sky is green. He is just a whore who wears a suit.

Watching Tony Hayward getting grilled by congress... Bob and weave... Kinda makes me want to barf.

I would imagine this thread is kinda radioactive after you know who got banned....nuff said. :D

Say good-bye to half of the gulf coast. But that's ok with Joe. He's been paid for.

Twenty billion will not scratch the surface of the liability B.P. faces.

Of course this was done on purpose, helloooo! Goldman Sachs sold off 4.6 million shares of BP stock, 2 days before this all happened. It's a money maker and it's also gonna help shove cap and trade down our throats...duh.

Babe, you are seeing things. I too love a good conspiracy theory. I'm sorry to say you are in left field looking for daisies. BP plc has a float of 3.1 billion shares. That's Billion with a B. Goldman trades millions of those shares on a daily baisis. BP has a average volume of 144.4 million shares traded daily (10 day avg).

To suggest that BP did this on purpose is crazy talk. Do you actualy think BP would commit suicide for 1% and change of their float? Just so Goldman would not lose money?

Many traders went short the day of the accident. Since that day they have almost doubled their investment. Maybe they blew up the rig.

I was one of them. Maybe I blew up the rig.

I'm sure Goldman has made a ton of money off this mess. Maybe they blew it up.

See what I am saying? In any large event people make money and lose money. Just the way it is.

Cap and trade will not happen any time soon. I do expect a carbon tax proposal soon though.

Nancy thinks Goldman is resposible for the spill. And, it was done on purpose. Just so Goldman could NOT lose money on 4.6 million shares. Gulf coast be damned.

In the early part of the Bush Presidency. (you remember Bush Right IB,?) Dick Chaney met with a bunch of oil company exeutives (BP included) in a series of closed door meetings. They went to court and won the right to keep their names secret. In those meetings the oil companies wrote their own rules for energy production. Bush said no problem, and the wishes of the energy companies became law, under his watch.

This thread is a week or more old. In that time we have seen Joe Barton (R) Texas offer to give Tony Hayward a BJ on national television. Or just about. We have seen Darell Issa (R) CA explain that if Republicans had sabpoena power they would use it, not on BP, but on the White House. And lets not forget Michelle Bachman (R) Crazytown that says Obama should not "shakedown" BP.

Hell IB, last week you Republicans have royaly shot yourself in the foot. Each time the media asked "did s/he just say that? And in that week the electorate realizes that Republicans are owned by Big Oil. You ,my friend, are bought and paid for. Each day your mid term victories are slipping away. So I can understand why you are so shrill. Not only do you have Bush to live down, now we find out that the oil companies come before the people in your world.

Anyway the reek of desperation follows you. And remember Reagan was still blaming Carter in his second nomination speech. I think we will get more mileage out of Bush than you guys got out of Carter. A lot more.

Anyway IB feel free to ignore this post (like usual). We have grown to expect nonsense out your party. And Nancy, feel free to correct my spelling. If thats all you got, than thats all you got.

Have a great day all!

That was another thread, hun. Not my fault you got zinged for trying to school me without knowing how to spell. I still like you though, even though we disagree. The cheap shots don't bother me. :cool:

[DocJTre2]

Soooooo... the democratic lobbyist's for BP are, in fact, not in political office? One happens to have a brother in office? Oh my GOD!

"slush fund" haha... i'm still wondering if Barton believes what he said was right or if he said it for the simple fact that it goes against what the democratic president had done. Well, that pretty much leaves no room for sanity. Something we come to expect from the people who like getting tea bagged by big business.

I kind of have to agree with Nancy a little. Its awful strange with the timing of the short sellers and the fall of American Airlines and others days before 9/11, and now with the BP as the more notable. To me, where there is smoke, there is fire. Just look at this disaster and Big Oil is written all over it. Is it also coincidence that 9/11 and 4/20 are both significant numbers that have a specific meaning in our culture? I see insiders pulling this crap, and its all Big Oil the center of the web. The Usual Suspects are in the newspapers and news all the time. :D

[Islandborn]

Bush, Bush, Bush........too funny.

Whose midterms are slipping away? You must be kidding right? This lame administration has more shit on its hands than Bush or Clinton and its getting worse. The majority still HATE Obamacare, McChrystal is bouncing on Obama in Afghanistan, Iran thinks Obama is a broad as does N Korea, and our new Attorney general wont say words Islamic terrorism anymore.....its man-made disaster lol.....talk about looking like pussies. Taxes are rising, unemployment is UNCHANGED, and Obama's poll numbers are almost in the 30's. Either your smoking methamphetamines or are living in a dream world. I dont even need to post congressional approval ratings for ya do I??:)

You guys had your shot and ya blew it. Ill garauntee right now Dems lose both House and Senate. Watch.

Nobody besides the small minority of socialist libs in America is gonna listen to the Dems try and blame Bush to save their political lives in November. Aint gonna happen, better try a different approach DailyKossies.

A senior Iranian lawmaker has renewed Tehran's offer of assistance in capping the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, with the US dodging a response to the proposal.

Head of Parliament's (Majlis) Commission on National Security and Foreign Policy Alaeddin Boroujerdi said Thursday that Iran was ready to employ its expertise in containing oil spills to put an end to the "environmental catastrophe" in the Gulf of Mexico.

"Despite the aggressive US stance towards the Iranian nation, Iran is ready to help put an end to the spill because of severity of the environmental catastrophe," IRNA quoted Boroujerdi as saying during a meeting with Swiss Ambassador to Tehran Livia Leu Agosti on Thursday.

The Swiss embassy is in charge of the US Interests Section in Iran, after Washington and Tehran ended all relations in the aftermath of the 1979 US Embassy takeover in Tehran.

Boroujerdi and Agosti also discussed the latest US-proposed sanctions against Iran over its nuclear program, that were passed at the UN Security Council (UNSC) on June 9.

"Imposing sanctions will not prompt the Iran nation to surrender and the Iranian nation will continue to defend their legal rights," Boroujerdi stressed.

The UNSC move came three week after Iran, Turkey and Brazil issues the Tehran declaration.

Foreign ministers of Iran, Turkey, and Brazil signed the declaration in the Iranian capital on May 17, according to which Iran would ship 1200 kilograms of its low-enriched uranium to Turkey to be exchanged for 120 kilograms of 20 percent enriched nuclear fuel rods to power the Tehran research reactor, which produces radioisotopes for cancer treatment.

The Swiss ambassador, whose country has been urging dialogue with Iran, expressed optimism that the declaration can still be used as the basis for talks between Iran and the world powers.

The US has characteristically ignored repeated offers of help from Iran to contain the oil spill. The National Iranian Drilling Company (NIDC) offered its assistance twice in May.

Earlier this week, a commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), Brig. Gen. Rostam Qasemi, offered the help of experts from Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters to contain the oil spill.

Millions of gallons of oil have poured into the Gulf since an offshore BP rig exploded on April 20, Killing 11 workers. A newly revealed BP document indicates that around 100,000 barrels of oil per day are spewed out of the well into the gulf.

typical.....this thinking right here is why everything stays the same in the whitehouse.like a little spoiled brat/tattle tale/crybaby.as your pointing the finger...they did this they did that so now we get to hahaha.to me that makes you worse than bush or clinton or obama or carter.......



Obviously the facts scare you. It's understandable. Please lay your thought out in a legible manner next time. That way we can understand what you have to say.


So, I am a spoiled brat/tattletale/crybaby for what exactly? For pointing out a small sample of the stupid things that the Republican Party actualy said? And that makes me worse than the past four presidents? That's a pretty high bar to clear. Feel free to explain how I made it to this lofty perch.


Thank you for proving me right. Since you have can't defend what your party leaders say, you call me names. If you can't attack the post, attack the poster. As I have pointed out previously, as your election victory slips away, you just yell louder. I believe the word I used was Shrill. And you know what they say about the shoe fitting.


Try to have a good day.
