It wasn't on his resume on election day, Polite.

And getting back to the topic, Remember when President Obama said "yes we can," and then turned it into, "yes we can, but?"


Those three words really bug republicans. Why?




slvemike4u -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/26/2011 8:17:53 PM)

Because there business model is based on "no,we can't" ?

Remember when Obama said that his administration would be the most transparent ever? [sm=rofl.gif]




tazzygirl -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/26/2011 9:44:07 PM)

I find it funny how you thought that meant completely transparent.

There's one accomplishment that nobody will ever be able to take away from President Obama. He lowered the bar dramatically for who can considered electable.



Are you kidding here, you dont feel being black and being able to get elected in the highest office in the land is itself an accomplishment ?



There we go with the bigotry again!
You don't realize that you're doing it do you?

They do? What makes you think that? It was a great campaign slogan. Unfortunately, that's all it was, as illustrated by his later addition of a "but."

"Bigotry" pops? Exactly what is bigoted here? You'll have to point it out precisely and explain what you mean.

Polite's question to you refers to an obvious well known fact - Obama is the first black President in US history - and asks why this shouldn't be considered an accomplishment. I see no reason to read anything more than that into Polite's words.

You are seeing "bigotry" there. Thus far, it seems that you are the only one that sees it - so educate the rest of us. Point out the bigoted bits and explain why (in your view) they're bigoted.

Or is this merely an exercise to obfuscate the meaning of bigotry, to render it meaningless?




TheHeretic -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/26/2011 11:21:24 PM)

Too bigôted about Americans to even realize they are doing it, maybe? [;)]

I have no problem with the "but" Rich

as in...

Yes we can but first we have to wait for the tantrums in Congress to calm down, wait for the diapers to be changed, the bottles to be passed out, the naps to be taken, before we can even find out what they are going to whine about this time in order to half ass make their attempts of saying another blanket "NO"

Maybe you can demonstrate how it's less transparent than the chimp's was. Which wars has he been fighting off the books in order to hide the expense from the taxpayer? Which government affairs has he conducted (illegally, it's worth noting) through private, non governmental email in a bid to keep it out of the government records? Which incompetent idiots who couldn't run a piss up at a brewery has he appointed as the head of FEMA because he used to play golf with them? Which of the huge contracts that were appointed to Haliburton were tendered for by rival companies as well?

Remember when Obama said.......

"We're the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad." —Cincinnati, OH, Sept. 22, 2011




Moonhead -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/27/2011 5:27:07 AM)

No answer, then. There's a surprise.




Sanity -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/27/2011 6:19:54 AM)


Oh, I AM sorry

This is a Bush thread now? [:D]

Beside that, did Obama promise that his administration would be only slightly more transparent than Bushs? Or that he wouldnt honor his promises because of Bush?

Im not following your logic here, which is a big part of why I chose not to respond. [;)]

It was vital to construction of the Panama Canal and was in itself quite an engineering triumph

So it should have been, "yes we can, but I don't know how?" How quickly we forget who had control of the White House, and both chambers of Congress for two years.




DomKen -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/27/2011 6:43:30 AM)

FR
This looks like fun

How about this
"Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden"

or this
"As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals."

Teh Kenyan's government operates in a context defined by past holders of his office.
If you're incapable of appreciating that, you're probably not up to being let out in public without a keeper, never mind trying to discuss politics with adults.
(The offtopic thing is really cute coming from somebody with your passion for dragging threads offtopic into abuse of leftists and strawmen, btw.)

Your talking crap again, there is nothing bigotted in my remark. Obama was elected despite being black, unless you are suggesting there were no racist voters.




Owner59 -> RE: Remember when Obama said....... (12/27/2011 8:48:02 AM)

Remember when President Obama made the wild claim that the winter solstice would be last Thursday?


Well folks.....he was right.


The winter solstice was in fact,last Thursday, Dec. 22.


Gotta give the man credit when he gets it right.[:D]

Same question I posed to popeye, are you really suggesting that no one in the US refused to vote for Obama becasue he is black.

As for myself, I am not bigotted against Americans, just intolerent of racists.
