Fabricating lies about WMDs that result in hundreds of thousands of deaths and trillions of dollars is no big deal but a joke made in poor taste is an outrage?hno:
hahaha. Hilarious. more of the "Obama can say/do whatever he wants because Bush was a liar, murdered, antichrist, etc". this logical never fails to crack my shit up.
GTC is correct to a certain extent, we are a bunch of crybabies. Always wanting to get offended. Grow the hell up people, bunch of damn pansies. Was it a dumb remark...yes. Have each of us said they exact same thing in some form. Another yes, far more important things to worry about than this comment. How about Prez BO get back to the damn White House and start doing some work that will help the country get out of the freaking rutt its in. Jay Leno, WTF Mr. Prez?
I don't give a shit about it personally. But I will say that it says something about the man that he would drop that statement so casually about the handicapped in conversation. Kind of like talking with an old-timer who just drops a racial slur in regular conversation. It just seems to be part of his vocabulary and not a big deal to him.
I do agree that if somone like Rush had said that same statement, there would be an outcry from Maddow, Keith Obamaman, and Matthews. There would be protests and cries to fire that insensitive prick. I also agree w/ GTC08 that we are raising an entire generation of pussies with all this not keeping score, and everyone is a winner (no matter how much you suck) attitude. Here's your medal for ninth place.
But Fuck it, Dumb comment. Let's move on.

I agree with that and what GTC08 said....its sad nowadays....everyone is afraid of hurting everyones feelings....these kids are in for a rude awakening when they grow up....thats NOT how the real world works! Your not preparing them for failure and to keep getting up off the mat when things dont go their way.....mommy and daddy arent going to be there for them when they get out of school to help them.....
Gasm~
like i said, i'm in my 20's so i've been programmed to be a wimp by my parents who told me never to say anything without consent because whatever i say could offend anyone, just like 99 percent of parents who have kids my age and under now.
it's been programmed into your head, and that is your generations fault, the parents born in the 50's and on.
now here were talking about passing anti-bullying legislation in minnesota which would protect those being bullied because of race, religion, sex. you all will say that's great, nobody can be bullied, lets hold hands and sing camp songs.
now your parent would kick your ass if you told him you were getting bullied in school because he wouldn't want to hear it. you take things into your own hands, deal with it, that's life. that's what your dad would tell you. now in 2009 dad says let's get a lawyer, sue the school.
now my generation doesn't know how to deal with the real world because our parents have put us in these protective bubbles. now we expect everything. deserve to be given everything, met with no objections, etc. that is bad news, and will only get worse after my generation passes it on.

Well said, Melt. I agree we are way too sensitive, but the real concern here is how could a President let something like this slip out.
The politically correct mumbo-jumbo is so ingrained in me that I'm simply not capapble of making jokes about the Special Olympics, even in private company. The topic is just so out of bounds that I know not to go anywhere near it. You wonder why the President is not wired in the same manner. Perhaps this explains his unusual reliance on the teleprompter.
Even Obama's press conference's are scripted. Why can't he just talk to us? Perhaps we now know why.
Exactley, Barack Oprompter is a highly thought out poll driven and tested product of the computer age. His words,phrases cadence is all put together to something that artificially "taste good" to the public in general. Even his physical appearence is in a sense is scripted half black/white.Light enough to pass the cracker smell test but black enough to use the race card. He is really thee morden day liberal manchurian canidate.Talented enough to deliver scripted lines and sociopathic enough to lie about them later.
Without his vice prompter he is in fact a run of the mill smash and grab liberal political hack.
He is industrial strength vanillia/chocolate swirl addictive and expensive and nutrionaly useless. The liberals morden day Marlboro man.
