Political Satire is our friend. If we cannot laugh at them ... who can ?

[Mep]

You know, if every word I utter is recorded and all the stupid things I say put together, I too would sound as stupid as these guys.

Oh I don't know...I think George is stupider...err...wait... :raspberry:

Barry? Where did that come from?

Barry? Where did that come from?

It's his less ... "threatening" to the average Union Guy nickname. He coined it himself years ago.

[craigsub]

Let's make this into a conversation ...

Barack ... "How's it going, Sunshine?"

George ... 'The future will be better tomorrow'

Barack ... "Hold on one second, sweetie, we're going to do -- we'll do a press avail."

George ... 'If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.'

Barack ... "I've now been in 57 states -- I think one left to go."

George ... 'We have a firm commitment to NATO, we are a part of NATO. We have a firm commitment to Europe. We are a part of Europe '

Barack ... "Why can't I just eat my waffle?"

George ... "'I have opinions of my own -- strong opinions -- but I don't always agree with them."

As would we all. The question is who among us would ever say something that was truly inspirational?

[lngbruno]

You can't get fooled again...

I agree political satire is good and healthy for a democracy that cherishes free speech.

I have to admit that Dubya has set the verbal gaffes bar higher than his predecessor. It was as though he acted like his brain and tongue were on steroids some times. :biglaugh:

These are two of my favorites -

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

“To those of you who received honours, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you, too, can be president of the United States.” :yes:

Obama visited us here in Ft Myers yesterday, and watching it on TV I couldn't help but be moved. The man is eloquent, seems geniunely concerned, and conveys the feeling that he just might be able to get us out of the mess the last 8 years have landed us in. Yes, it was inspirational. The only thing George W. ever said that was inspirational was "goodbye"!
