35. You can run for some of the people some of the time, and all of the poeple some of the time...
but you can't run from all of the people all of the time.

Sounded funnier when I started writing it.

Oh well.

39. You mean like Hillary who appears to be the chosen candidate of the Shitbag Populace
that's a pretty narrow appeal.

11. I'm so quick on the Ignore trigger these days
And I was ready to send you for a walk off the plank, too! But I figured to hear you out given Obama's message of today. And it worked out better than expected!

But I've got to give you this, at least -

20. *AND* he pronounced every word correctly! What's up with that?
Not to mention he actually told the truth. Haven't seen that from a president in awhile.

21. I came in here
ready to kick your ass and this is what you give us?

:rofl:

Very good! I'm looking forward to having a President who doesn't appeal to the lowest common denominator, insult people's intellignce or put them to sleep.

Your post was funny!

36. I know. The contast is ... painful.
Obama = Intelligent, eloquent, sharp, smooth, charismatic

Bush = Stumbling, incoherent, idiotic, petulant, unlikable

30. It will be weird to have a non-presidential president
I won't know what to do when I don't want to turn the TV off when he's speaking.

We're gonna be one confused nation.

31. What's the Daily Show gonna do for material?
I mean, sure, a satirical show should be able to satirize anybody, but * made their job so much easier.

32. Absolutely true!
Poor writers are going to have to work a *LOT* harder.

They'll pull through, though, and it's not like Bush is going anywhere. We can poke fun at him while he's in Crawford too! Hell, he spent most of his 'presidency' there anyway!

:)

40. Obama has what it takes
...and then some.

He has the judgement, the ability to unite the nation, and the aura.
He should be president for two terms in a row.
