…and then we’ll see how Hopey and Changeful things will be. Reality, responsibility, ownership. No more voting “present.” No more BDS. No more “culture of corruption.”
I’m betting that 2010, judging by past performance, Joe Biden will be running most things while Obama campaigns for UN Secretary General.
J.
I’ll take that bet. Obama knows what’s at stake. Bush never really gave a shit.
Can’t wait.
Jay Tea: …and then we’ll see how Hopey and Changeful things will be. Reality, responsibility, ownership. No more voting “present.” No more BDS. No more “culture of corruption.”

It’s really starting to feel like your heart isn’t into it any more, Jay. The best you’re able to come up with is neener-neener “Hopey and Changeful” immature playground crap, and then keep repeating your latest catchphrase (UN in ‘10) because you just can’t get up the enthusiasm to come up with anything else.
You’re becoming like the old man who no longer believes in his cause but unenthusiastically sallys forth because he can’t ever admit it.
BTW, JT, did anyone ever mention to you that Obama is black? Yup, he’s black. Blackity-black-black-black. The president, your president, is going to be black.
Just thought I’d mention that.
Black, also.
PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA. Learn to fucking love it, Jay.
Obama’s on TV right now, just finished his speech in Baltimore’s War Memorial Plaza. Great, but he somehow failed to mention mayor Sheila Dixon.
Also…at a thrift store this morning I saw a copy of Corsi’s “Obama Nation.” $7.50 sticker, but everything’s half price on weekends. The damn thing isn’t even worth $3.75.
One last thing:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FIRST LADY OBAMA!!!
I won’t share that wish, Randy.
Rather, Happy birthday, First Lady-Elect Obama.
(Not that she was elected, but it’s an awkward construction no matter how you do it…)
J.
Damn, good birthday present.
I know. It’s still hard to believe. In fact, until it actually happens, I’ll be on pins and needles.
Jay Tea, being a loser is bad enough, Being a loser and as bitter about it as you are is just pathetic.
JD, just sit back and revel in the fact that Jagoff Teabagger is on the verge of the most miserable, most frustrating 4-8 years of his sorry, small life. As Pink Floyd sang in their song, “Dogs” (from “Animals”):
Just another sad old man, all alone [...]
The country, and soon the world, has left the likes of JT behind, our asses exposed for him to ponder and pucker up to. Maybe he’ll relocate to Alaska where he can live under the regime of Syco Sally…
Actually, I’m feeling pretty darned good. I don’t have a single person in DC that I voted for, so I’m reveling in the old saw about “freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose.” I can just kick back and enjoy myself, utterly unencumbered by the slightest sense of responsibility for whatever happens — hey, I didn’t vote for ‘em.
But I am hoping for Obama’s health and success. The thought of Biden wielding any kind of power really scares me.
J.
Oh…listen closely to Obama right after the end of his Baltimore speech. He yells to someone, “Come on…let’s get out of here!” But he didn’t make a quick getaway; he stayed for about five minutes to shake hands, and Mrs. O received a number of hugs.
“Jay Tea’s” just some other words for total schidt for brains…loser.
Jay Tea: utterly unencumbered by the slightest sense of responsibility
Truer words…
“Being a loser and as bitter about it…”
Without being snarky or sarcastic, I think that would be an apt description for half of all registered Democrats since about mid-December 2000.
True story: When he was elected to the Senate in 2004, he was on the cover of some magazine. My mother and I passed it in the grocery store, and she said “That man is going to be president someday.”
“I think that would be an apt description for half of all registered Democrats since about mid-December 2000″
If by “Democrats” you mean “American people,” then yeah, I was bitter that the guy who got fewer votes won. Not nearly as much in 2004 where Kerry blew it because he was afraid to swing back at the Republican smear machine.
But hey, it’s all about the future, right? I eagerly await your support of our new President Obama.
Jay Tea: utterly unencumbered by the slightest sense of reality
Fixed, Sean.
“That man is going to be president someday.”
Chris Matthews played a self-congratulatory clip this a.m. of his reaction to Obama’s 2000 convention speech in which he said “That’s the first black president.” Much as I loathe Matthews’ opportunism and perennial softballing, he was, in fact, prescient.
Spineless or not, Matthews had a good ear.
JT, try “First Lady-Designate.”
“BTW, JT, did anyone ever mention to you that Obama is black? Yup, he’s black. Blackity-black-black-black. The president, your president, is going to be black.
Just thought I’d mention that.
Black, also.”
LOL,
Gosh that seems racist somehow. Curious that you bring this up. We still don’t have an African American as president. We have an American/African. The vast majority of blacks in this country are descended from natives of West Africa and sometimes Central Africa and then hybridized with white or indian blood. Obama is 1/2 American through his mom and 1/2 East African through his dad. The East Africans were primarily enslaved by the Arabs and never made it to America.
So yeah, Obama’s black, blackity-black-black-black but he ain’t native, he’s an import.
Randy: Hmm… that might work.
The medievalist in me, though, is teaming up with the punster to suggest “First Lady In Waiting.”
All moot in a few hours, though, for at least four years.
J.
Amused O: So yeah, Obama’s black, blackity-black-black-black but he ain’t native, he’s an import.
He was born in the USA, moran. He’s a native.
So yeah, Obama’s black, blackity-black-black-black but he ain’t native, he’s an import.
You should mention that to the next President. I’m sure he’ll be interested to learn from a Republican douchebag that the racism he experienced as a black man in the U.S. wasn’t legitimate. Mighty white of you to point that out.
Actually, I’m feeling pretty darned good. I don’t have a single person in DC that I voted for, so I’m reveling in the old saw about “freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose.” I can just kick back and enjoy myself, utterly unencumbered by the slightest sense of responsibility for whatever happens — hey, I didn’t vote for ‘em.
I guess I missed the time when little Jay took a break from blaming Bill Clinton for the 9/11 attacks to take responsibility for all the colossal Republican fuckups he helped vote for, but yeah, I guess he deserves a break from taking responsibility sort of the way Paris Hilton needs a vacation from work.
Jesus, what a twat Jay is.
“Being a loser and as bitter about it…”
SFC B: “Without being snarky or sarcastic, I think that would be an apt description for half of all registered Democrats since about mid-December 2000.”
I think a better way to describe us would be the word, “correct.”
George W. Bush was a failure in practically every way imaginable.
Amused Observer: “So yeah, Obama’s black, blackity-black-black-black but he ain’t native, he’s an import.”
You are so fucking racist that words fail me.
J. G. Thayer: “Actually, I’m feeling pretty darned good. I don’t have a single person in DC that I voted for, so I’m reveling in the old saw about “freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose.” I can just kick back and enjoy myself, utterly unencumbered by the slightest sense of responsibility for whatever happens — hey, I didn’t vote for ‘em.”
I assumed you didn’t vote for Bush, twice, otherwise this statement would be so hypocritical, as to cause the Earth to spin off it’s axis and into the heart of the sun.
“But I am hoping for Obama’s health and success. The thought of Biden wielding any kind of power really scares me.”
After 8 years of Bush & Cheney?
Good god, you are a fucking ‘tard.
I’ve got this mental picture of Jay sitting in his mom’s basement in his streak-marked tightie whities and his “Palin/McCain 2008!” T-shirt choking back tears and rocking himself maniacally while President Barack Hussein Obama is inaugurated as #44, and 70 percent of America rejoices.
How accurate am I, Jay?
