   I’ve always thought he should have a drink named after him. Imagine:
   “Bartender, give me a Wolf Blitzer.”

   Ryan Seacrest was Obama’s first choice for Press Secretary but he turned it down to do American Idol in 2009.

   So he IS going to be his Press Secretary then.

   I think Dr. Phil would make a fine SG; I can see PEBO stepping into Dr. Phil’s office daily just to hear him say “How’s that workin’ out for ya”; Oh yeh, it’s going to be that bad; Remember, to say PEBO is in over his head is to say the Titanic is just a tad below the surface of the North Atlantic.

   No, we are also going to sit around and think of ways to irritate weenies, whimps and other assorted Liberals. You see Dear imjustsaying we plan to give President Barack Hussein, Allah be Praised, Obama just as much slack as the Left gave Presidents Reagan and Bush II.

   No offense, AZ, but that’s just stupid. You’ve spent the past eight years calling the left a bunch of immature, delusional a-holes for the way the treated Reagan and Bush. Now you’re going to become immature, delusional a-holes because a Democrat is in office. In other words, you’re becoming what you loathe. What’s the point?

   Is that all you people are going to do here for the next four years, just whine about everything? If you don’t like that conservatives lost everything this election cycle why don’t you stop crying and go get involved in local politics or the RNC or something where you can put your talents to work instead of just being a bunch of crybabies. For crying out loud.

   So how was it in the cave you lived in for the past 8 years?

    I guess you can say that Dr. Gupta at least has experience with what he’ll be doing. You can’t say the same for Panetta at the CIA. I’m not getting too personally worked up over this one, though I certainly do recognize the lightheadedness of this pick.

    Hey there, emjem!

    It was a whole thing but it was learned that mistressjustice also posed as nyk, watershed and a few other posters. He/she was banned. I wish I could recall the thread in which the banning occurred but it escapes me.

    Interesting! (And I’ll bet she only tried to vote once for Obama.) It’s kind of pathetic to think some liberals need validation from others so much, that they have to create multiple personalities to obtain it.

    Thanks for the info on the “wordy one”, 30.

    “…why do we even have a Surgeon General, and why is it worth our tax dollars, and how constitutional is it anyway?”

    Sadly, almost everything is considered “constitutional” since they are apparently doing it simply in order “to promote the general welfare” of we the people.

    No wonder so many liberals love the nanny welfare state!

    (Yes, I am stereotyping but prove me wrong)

    After the Constitution was written, many were concerned that the welfare clause-”to promote the general welfare”-could mean the government would do anything it liked, in the name of welfare; in effect, give the government unlimited power. That’s why the 10th amendment was passed. Of course, it is totally ignored today. It’s too bad that states, so willingly, give up their power to D.C., for the money.

    Amen Gray! The powers of the federal government are few and well defined! But what is forgotten are the states and the people unfortunately. Even worse; they give up their power, their rights and their liberty for money that already belongs to them.

    I remember the lunatic rants that got her banned. I’m pretty sure she was just BSing about being those other posters. Most have a distinct personality/style that come through in their posts. She was not that clever to fake all of them, although if she was posing as other posters that is worse than creepy. More like a cyber version of Norman Bates.
