Regardless if you voted for the man or not, one has to admit he’s bringing a level of humanity to the office that hasn’t been seen in a long, long time.

And yes, those of us who did vote for him still need to hold his feet to the fire.

I don’t care if this was totally staged, like Hillary kissing Arafat’s wife and really enjoying it. I just want to drink another pitcher of Kool-Aid and vote for Obama SIX MORE times.

justlen’s absolutely right about calling him out on the shit we Obots are supposedly letting slide. But you have to admit—if the man is faking intelligence, thoughtfulness, pragmatism and a genuine ability to connect with people, he’s got chops Bill Clinton must envy.

In any event, if these images give my enemies seizures, that’s good enough for me.

Now, let’s let him know this indefinite detention of teenagers shit don’t fly, nor does Guantanamo, nor does domestic surveillance, nor does any of Bush’s Executive Privilege crap. He may have been the only choice we had, but let’s make sure he knows he can’t take that for granted.

Justlen and Strange - I think that this guy at Queerty sums up your comments far better than I can,

Oh, Barack. Barack-Barack-Barack. Every time you do us wrong, you lure us back with your sweet talk and promises to “do better.” We forgive you, ya big lug. So you broke a couple promises, stabbed us in the back one or six times. Slapped us around a bit. We probably had it coming.

Damn, it’s like a movie on Lifetime starring Pam Dawber

BigotBasher—I sense that you are not One With the Body. This concerns me. I must inform Landru.

On the other hand, if Obama doesn’t get a public plan passed I say Debby gets to come back and kick him in the nuts.

We’re all for that, justlen, and I’ll even run the camera and put it on youtube.

My point to BigotBasher is that I don’t care if Obama starts stuffing innocent people into FEMA detention camps, as long as he keeps the good vibes and the charisma coming. That’s hardly the same as giving him a free pass. I didn’t turn all my non-Obot friends and family members over to Obama’s Civilian National Security Force without some expectation of a quid pro quo. The check from Axelrod is nice, but I demand the appearance of substance.

Just keepin’ it real.

Debbie?  Need health care?  Oh ye of little faith, look again at the pictures.  The One has anointed her with the laying on of His hands.

@ Strange:  So the FEMA detention camps are real?  Just wanted to check as I am assigned to check people into a couple here in Denver.  Didn’t want my time to be wasted.

OK, yes those pics are very cool and I still “heart” Barack.  I mean, compared to GDub and the specter of McCain/Palin . . . We have an actual real person in the White House who’s out there trying.  Out there trying with great intelligence, and decent values and morals and ideas.  He may not live up to our perfect progressive agenda but he’s so, so much better than what we’ve lived with up to now.  I think we should keep him.

Oh, well, AP is reporting that Debbie’s actually a volunteer for Organizing for America, an Obama support group.

However, as I said above, that only makes me want to cook him a big, hearty breakfast every morning, so he’ll have the strength to continue to crush my enemies and rob them of their dreams.

Did I mention that this angers my enemies?

  Smith, of Appalachia, Va., is a volunteer for Organizing for America, Obama’s political operation within the Democratic National Committee. She obtained her ticket through the White House.

  well, she didnt look like she was lacking in the food intake area. She must be on disability, how does she exist? Something
  fishy about this whole thing as usual and as par for the course.

I have a friend and full disability; She drives, she works in her yard, she does pretty much everything she wants to. Does she
have aches and pains, sure, like we all do when we get in our 50’s, it comes with the territory for many anyway. She is a full fledged “obama can do no wrong” person. I almost dread her coming over because i know his name will come out of her mouth at any given moment. She wouldnt care if my tax dollars took care of her the rest of her born days and i guess it will.

“Fat” jokes and shitting on people with disabilities. It’s the All-New, Right-Wing Woman-Dissing, Social-Safety-Net-Hating PUMA.
