So basically the only answer Jack wanted/expected/will accept is that everyone on the Right that opposes Obama does so because he's black. - Stephen Aug 23, 13:59 9
- I don't think the comparisons to any other president is valid because political disinformation has never been so wide spread or effective as it is now - stewie Aug 23, 14:08
- Jack's Black? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 23, 14:06
- speak for yourself. -- nm - Diva Aug 23, 14:02

  - Hey if that's not your position than perhaps your comments (with love) to Ender. - Stephen Aug 23, 14:11 1
    - [deleted]
- I doubt Jack would have accept that answer. (nm) - musubi Aug 23, 14:02 2
  - Well since his response to Ender boiled down to "you guys hide behind the spending mantra to just to avoid the calls of racism" I'm not so sure. -- nm - Stephen Aug 23, 14:07 1

    - even better. - Mel Profit Aug 23, 14:07

    - "So far, President Obama has taken 61 vacation days after 31 months in office. At this point in [his] presidency, George W. Bush had spent 180 days" - znufrii Aug 23, 14:07 1
      - Get back to work, Negro! Now!! -- nm - Diva Aug 23, 14:09
    - then there's that. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 23, 14:07
    - This thread is the first I'm hearing that Obama taking a vacation is a bad idea -- nm - con_carne Aug 23, 14:06
  - Probably. I still don't care though, the President can do their job from anywhere. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 14:03 4
    - absolutely but perception is killer here. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 23, 14:06 2
      - [deleted]

  - Suddenly the building is overrun by escaped cats...there's a minor flood on the floor...someone brings in their pet snake for a day. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 23, 14:05 1
    - "No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards." - prayformojo Aug 23, 14:08
- Baby squirrel meat is a delicacy on the black market. You could put that on eBay and make a fortune. -- nm - Chest Rockwell Aug 23, 14:02
