I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!

Seems like Barack Obama and the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland have something in common:

But of course he’ll be right on time for the Obama-mercial tonight…

    “Tardy”? Who uses that word? Um,uh, if he misses most of what is going on how can he even vote “present” so often? He is not ready for prime time.

    Yes, Nobama shows great organizational skills as well as respect for others. But he said, today, he does share his peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!

    I seem to remember a psychologist who once said that people who are chronically late feel their time is much more important than your time. Sound reasonable? Of course, Obama feels his time is more important than anyone else’s. He is “The One”. Dear God help us… this “dear leader” must be found out.

    I know Obuma is going to be telling people to go to his tax calculator tonight to see their savings. Of course, I doubt he is going to share with the voters the fact that he wants the Bush tax cuts to expire.

    Is there any site that calculates the impact of the expiration of the Bush tax cuts?

    I entered in increments of $10,000 – $20,000 up to $250,000 and McCain tax plan always came up with zero with a big fat savings that went down as the income got higher.

    It would be interesting to see what it would be if the Bush tax cuts were no longer in effect.

    You’re right. Those words never made any sense to me, either, until now.

    After the election, all those Obama supporters expecting a tax cut will also be left waiting. If it comes at all, it will be after the Bush tax cuts expire and Obama is preparing to run for reelection. It will end up being a net tax increase for the middle class but Obama and his media pals will spin it as a promise kept. And the people will bow their heads and shout “Thank You Oh Merciful One!”

    One thing he won’t be late for is his own inauguration, if he wins. Probably be there early. His oath of office should be interesting. “I, Barak Obama, vote present.” He’d have to, unless he wants to start his term with an obvious lie. But, I suppose that won’t bother him. Also, be prepared for him to be the first in-coming President to drop the words, “so help me, God”. The messiah, “dear leader”, doesn’t need or believes in God’s help.

    I want new collectivist trolls, the ones we have right now aren’t very imaginative and can’t stick to a subject. Also their reading comprehension is abysmal.

    I do not feel properly demoralized, dejected or angry. Someone please contact collectivist headquarters with a requisition request for three or four new trolls.

    I know it’s hard to get good thinkers on the collectivist side, but please!

    Well, I think this kind of says it all. The best you got against Obama is to devote a whole page to the fact that he was late. With this kind of sophomoric garbage, no wonder he is going to win next Tues.

    Yeah, this is the best we have. Maybe you should rouse yourself out of your Obama trance and take a look at the archives. This is just icing on the cake.

    Seriously, it shows a pattern of irresponsibility that you can combine with his many “present” votes and inability to actually hold meetings in the one committee he chaired.

    Sounds like a pretty sophomoric senator to me.
