Posted: May 5, 2014
Just love this line from the press corp dinner: Well, Obama told a few jokes about himself, the media and healthcare.gov. But he also joked about Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, including: “Let's face it, Fox, you'll miss me when I'm gone. It will be harder to convince the American people that Hillary was born in Kenya.”Hysterical. Meanwhile the shrill right is desperate to tie Benghazi to O to a coverup to protect his reelection bid, crying foul on POLITICS, while conveniently IGNORING that that is EXACTLY what they are doing in the run-up to November. Using this tragedy to help them score political points with THEIR base. Apparently no MIRRORS in the house of the GOP. ;
how bout his orange is the new black - joke Boehner
[ In Reply To ..]I know he has writers but he has a fine delivery style.
One of his best jokes! - nm

Proves the depth of disrespect he has for the Constitution. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I agree that the Pres was quite funny at times, but his disrespect for the Constitution was patently evident to me by making light of the fact that he has pulled the wool over the eyes of the American people and got to be the first foreign-born president. Before you all jump on my back, let me say this: Show me his mother's passport at the time of HIS birth. If it shows she was in the USA, I will NEVER bring this up again.
I guess - no one feels
[ In Reply To ..]obliged to address your request to prove anything to you.
Said documentation does not exist. - He lies.
[ In Reply To ..]There's nothing more to say, and certainly someone on this board doesn't have what it would take...LOL.
Prove it - sm
[ In Reply To ..]chuckle giggle snicker.
oh dear - sm
[ In Reply To ..]The president showed no disrespect to the constitution. He was not "making light" about being foreign born - he is NOT foreign born; he was making a joke about this inane rumor.
As far as U.S. citizenry goes, if your mom is American, she can give birth to you anywhere on the planet. Do you really think that American children born abroad are NOT Americans? Have you no respect for the constitution?
speaking of Rush - must we
[ In Reply To ..]He was just commenting on the Correspondent's Dinner. Said Obama is the FIRST president ever who refused to make fun of himself. Said he is arrogant, mean, and humorless. He said Obama is the one keeping the birther stuff alive. He so crazee.
I disagree with everything Rush said except the birther stuff. - NPC
[ In Reply To ..]If it is a nonissue, why is he bringing it up. That shows arrogance. Otherwise, I disagree with Rush completely. I thought the president did make fun of himself.
If you have to ask why he (brought it up) - you just don't get the joke
[ In Reply To ..]I don't think you understand how the humor works here. He is making several salient points here - all funny - none arrogant.
I guess one person's humor is another person's 'scratch head' moment. No worries.
No, you don't get it. - Sorry.
[ In Reply To ..]Look just a "smidgen" beyond your conditioning and you just may see the arrogance and the nose thumbing regarding this issue. It's not rocket science.
He was supposed to make fun of himself. Can't do it. - Thin skinned
[ In Reply To ..]nm
whats up with the - obsession
[ In Reply To ..]with Mr. President's skin?
It is so easy to find out - the latest RW talking points
[ In Reply To ..]They just come boom right on here.
President Obama DID make fun of himself constantly. He DID look straight at the comedian insulting him constantly with a smile on his face.
He is one of the most self deprecating presidents ever, he is the first person to make fun of himself.
Again, with the ridiculous cognitive dissonance.
He is an apologizer and not a war monger, he is weak.
BUT he is a tyrant and dictator, arrogant, can't laugh at himself.
Ridiculous and untrue.
Ok, so how about if we just stick to one? - He's a Commie
[ In Reply To ..]Better.
Oh, you are funny... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]...as the cow goes moo and the...LMBO...
sense of humor - jane
[ In Reply To ..]we need more than a comedian running the country. the mess we are in is not funny
tho i admit his remarks were.
I think that's why some call him Obozo. - But I could be wrong.
[ In Reply To ..]LOL
Ya, methinks you are wrong. Some call him - Obozo because THAT'S
[ In Reply To ..]all they got!
ad hominem attacks... no substitute for grownup conversations.
Meknows you are wrong - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Bozo was a clown that aired on TV back in the 60s. Since the O is acting like a clown, the name many Americans have come to call him is Obozo.
Oh, there is plenty that we have. You just don't want to hear it.
You have plenty (names) all right, but one can - only take so much
[ In Reply To ..]juvenile name calling - that is apparently somehow supposed to pass for reasoned, logical, fact-based discussion.
Are you OABO? - Just curious...
[ In Reply To ..]No comment. Just a simple question...
What is AOBO? - Other poster.

A right to say 'I do'By Richard CohenTuesday, December 1, 2009 The truth is that if Maj. Nidal Hasan, the accused killer of 13 people at Fort Hood, had entered the officers club there with a nice handbag on his arm, perhaps a Gucci tote, he would have been out of the Army by the end of the week. Since he was merely antisocial, a misfit, an incompetent psychiatrist and a likely Islamic fanatic, he was retained and promoted. This says something about America. On the subject of gays, we a ...
Men Of A Certain Age -- Excellent ShowFeb 01, 2010
Just love this new show! I've been following it since it started and it only gets better. It is so smart and clever and well written. I so look forward to Monday nights. What gets me is choosing which new series to start watching and then hoping it doesn't get canceled. Or not starting with a new series and then it ends up being a huge hit. Just can't win when it comes to that. If you haven't seen it, you gotta catch it -- tonigh ...

The whole situation makes me sick that many point fingers at the end result and use it to justify the ...

I've used some of her tips, such as the "human voice resume" and how to answer stupid questions typically asked (Where do you see yourself in 5 years? What's your biggest weakness?) and have gotten more interviews than ever. I love how she empowers the job-seeker to be on par with the interviewers, instead of the interview b ...

Excellent Summary -reasons Done Talking To Feb 11, 2015
1. You support revisionist history. When I was in a high school history class, I’ll never forget one thing our teacher taught us: what you read in history books isn’t always accurate. The example she used was history books in the Soviet Union, now known as Russia. She informed us, to my shock and horror, that the Soviets pretty much included what they liked in the history books and left out everything else. As a result, she said, there were generations of Russian students who were m ...

The President SaysFeb 22, 2017
Part of what he says is tax cuts will help do that. We have seen through decades that this has not created jobs and merely put more money in the pockets of the wealthy. We have a wage gap that is out of this world. I understand businesses are in business to make money, but there was a time when employers shared the wealth with their employees while still making a good profit themselves, and those times seem to have disappeared. What things could he do to ensure that the ...
