[Q=Elok;5721514]Probable actual words: "I don't feel comfortable with [minute policy distinction practically nobody follows but which conservatives oppose once they parse it]."[/q]
Yes, he did actually say it. Maybe if you paid attention to what he says and does you'd be in a better position to judge what he says and does.
[q=Obama on ABC News, July 24, 2009, when asked about his goals in Afghanistan]I'm always worried about using the word "victory," because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur.[/q]

Okay, I was wrong: "I'm uncomfortable with using a certain word, because it implies a situation unlikely to be actually realized in the real world." Even dumber to object to.

He made several overtures to senate Republicans in the beginning, offering compromises that pissed off a few Democrats. He made some speeches offering vague compromises that vanished but as soon as his base whined at the very thought. No actual compromises made, which would indeed be bipartisan. Can you cite something that I've missed other than pork promised to liberal Republicans? So he's a slave to his base...WHICH WAS MY ORIGINAL ARGUMENT!

Quick, tell me: what was the last bill you actually read in its entirety, or even read the highlights of? HR 3200. Wifey was mad that I spent all that time reading the excremental thing. You actually slogged your way through one of those turds? That could explain the poor reading comprehension; you might just have Philosophy Major Syndrome.

Yes, we deserve a President who doesn't intend to turn this country into an Orwellian nightmare. I regret to inform you that you are a tard. The only infringements on civil liberties under Obama are leftovers from the Bush administration. Unless you count his childish vendetta with Fox News as a crackdown on freedom of the press. Apparently you need to read Animal Farm. Orwell uses some big words, but with cute little animals it makes it easier, you know. It deals with concepts a bit more subtle than tossing journalists in the clink. I've read Animal Farm and 1984, and there's no resemblance to either outside of your fevered imagination. He has not, for example, obliterated records of his past actions, nor sicced either attack dogs or secret police on his critics.
