Obama Welcomes Butch And Fan Dance To WH

I don't really have to explain which one is Butch and which is Fan Dance, I trust? Can you believe this? And while he's engaged in battle with Fox News because they have a point of view? Even Leno is having fun at Obama's expense, now. Video at link.

Last but not least: Last night, I wrote about Bret Baier’s report on Fox News about how, in spite of the WH’s implied dislike of “biased” news outlets, MSDNC’s Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann were at an “off the record briefing” with President Obama on Monday night.

To be fair, is it possible to have a point of view when you have your nose so far up someone's azz, as Butch and Fan Dance do when it comes to Obama? Maybe not. That must be it.

Ever notice how MadSow and Olbie have the same haircut, more or less? Strange pair, that.

And what a joke Obama is. He can't even appreciate how easy it is for people to understand he's full of crap. His rhetoric and his actions are always so far apart, it isn't even something one has to figure out. You'd think he'd be a little more opaque and not so transparent as a half-black dude.

"And what a joke Obama is. He can't even appreciate how easy it is for people to understand he's full of crap."

That's what passes for insightful commentary at this pathetic little backwater of a blog. Riehl does the same petty bitching about Obama and the Dems over and over and over . . . No new ideas. No positive suggestions. Nothing insightful or interesting. Other wing nuts must come here for the hate, because there's literally nothing else Riehl has to offer.

[x11b1p]

Dan, you did not get the memo - no one is allowed to criticize BHO - NO ONE. You cant joke about him, you cant comment on fact about him, you can't even think bad thoughts about him, no speculating about him, you are to ignore any and all facts associated with any failures or mistakes, only recognize the victories (um, wrong word he does not like that word) I mean good things like the economy, Afghanistan, Gitmo, Iraq, Norko, Iran, Russia, the dollar, the toxic assets, the 100 failed banks this year, the unemployment rate. You are only allowed to say nice things about Obama. Just do like the rest of the sheep, take out his picture (the one with him half naked on a unicorn), rub one out to it, and go to sleep. If you do that for the next 90 days, you will find yourself in a state of bliss where its sunshine and skittles, and nothing else matters but your alone time with his picture at night.

[Bob]

"Dan, you did not get the memo - no one is allowed to criticize BHO - NO ONE."

Who's saying you're not allowed to? What I AM saying is how pathetic that you have nothing else to talk about, and even your criticism of Obama is based on empty caricatures rather than honest ideas. I guess you can't even claim to have any ideas of your own after having proven what a disaster wing nut policies are when put into practice during the Bush administration. So basically you're failed, whining losers. You prove it every day.

[North Dallas Thirty]

Let's see; the Obama Party's tactics are, when confronted with something they see as dangerous to them, to try to marginalize it and discredit it.

And here's the Obama puppet Bob, right on cue.

The funny part about this is that Bob thinks anyone believes that Bob isn't just repeating talking points. We all know that syncophant Bob is, like x11b1p put it, here to remind us that no one is to criticize Obama under any circumstances, that no criticism of Obama is "honest", that all criticism of Obama is wrong and likely "racist", and that anyone who criticizes Obama in any way is a "failed, whining loser".

[Ken McCracken]

So . . . the White House hypocritically shuns Fox while inviting Maddow and Olbermann over for tea.

And Dan here just sputters 'nothing to see here, move along haters'.

'No new ideas. No positive suggestions. Nothing insightful or interesting.'

As if Dan were actually interested in anything like that.

[x11b1p]

Why do people come here if they think this site sucks so bad and that Dan is so wrong- go start your own blog(s). Or please link to the one(s) you run, I would love to visit. Its amazing how its okay to ciritcize Dan but not Obama, maybe thats because no one here worships Dan like some here worship Obama.

[North Dallas Thirty]

Let's see; the Obama Party's tactics are, when confronted with something they see as dangerous to them, to try to marginalize it and discredit it.

And here's the Obama puppet Ken McCracken, right on cue.

The funny part about this is that Ken thinks anyone believes that Ken isn't just repeating talking points. We all know that syncophant Ken is, like x11b1p put it, here to remind us that no one is to criticize Obama under any circumstances, that no criticism of Obama is "honest", that all criticism of Obama is wrong and likely "racist", and that anyone who criticizes Obama in any way is a "failed, whining loser".

[Dave B]

Ken: I have a suggestion. Why don't you get your head out of your ass long enough to take a look at what's really going on in our Republic. It's obscene to hold close door meetings with "legitimate news outlets" that interview a President and his henchmen a couple days later about their competition "not being a legitimate news outlet." Why would you insult Dan or anyone else that brings this to your attention? You should be as outraged as the rest of us regardless of your politics. Nothing insightful? What do you want, a picture of Obama getting a BJ from Keith Olberman prior to them giving him a resounding review of his healthcare plan while making an attempt to silence the one place people can get an opposing view? I wonder if Hitler, Chavez, Maou, or other dictators had similar meetings? I'll give you the answer; they did.

[x11b1p]

ND30 - no use in even trying to argue with Bob. He is the smartest man in the world, he is the guy responsible for giving Obama all his talking points. There is no way any conservative alive or dead can compete with Bob's understanding and grasp of evertything. I only hope Bob has or will have 1000s of children so he can repopulate the world with the smartest people ever, and once and for all fix the world. All us lowly conservatives can do is come to this back water sight, the epicenter of hate, a place with 'No new ideas. No positive suggestions. Nothing insightful or interesting' (where we find Bob and others daily also) and worship his magnificent and magnanomous brain encased in his thick skull.

[x11b1p]

Dave B - feel free to replace Bob's name with Ken McKracken's name in my above comment.

[Dave B]

Sorry. Consider it done. I apologize.

[LOL]

Your post consists of nothing more than childish insults. You truly have nothing to say.

[MDr]

The Left must really be getting worried if their Obots have to take the time to visit a "little backwater of a blog". Personally, I love the smell of exploding Zombie gray matter in the morning.

Butch And Fan Dance - priceless.

MadSow is very good, but I prefer MadCow; it inserts the added flavor of a neurodegenerative disease. Heck, that might even explain Matthews' tinglies.

[xerocky]

"Who's saying you're not allowed to? What I AM saying is how pathetic that you have nothing else to talk about, and even your criticism of Obama is based on empty caricatures rather than honest ideas"

Ok Bob, here's an honest idea: I think that the president should stop attacking Fox. I think it's counter productive and Helen Thomas agrees with me. What does that say about you?

Moderate liberals need to see how truly bad this is on the presidents behalf. He's painting himself into a corner, he's surrounding himself with the yes men. And let's face it folks, BOB ARE YOU LISTENING? He only became this enraged with Fox when the ACORN and Van Jonse stories broke big! It's pretty obvious why he wants his minions to shun the network.
Obama is a sad sad man.

[Dale]

Off the record or not..its just balls out weird that the POTUS would have a "briefing" with the likes of KO and Maddow.

What could the point possibly be???? The country is facing numerous serious problems, and time is spent crunching ideas with abrasive leftie wingnuts??

Too weird.

[AJsDaddie]

I want to know who is coordinating this mass attack on conservative blogs. Are there assigned posters? Are they given talking points daily from Teh Desk of Rahm? Is that what the meeting with the MSNBC pundits was about?

More to the point, does someone actually think it's a GOOD idea to have people like Bob basically reinforcing the conservative meme (that this administration is more worried about opposing viewpoints than actually doing the will of the people)?

It's very creepy. I wonder how history will view this Presidency? I hope I'm around long enough to tell my grandkids that I lived through it, and tell them that really we weren't as stupid as it seems, and that we're all really very, very sorry. Even though I voted for Sarah, I still feel responsible for this...

[templar knight]

"I wonder how history will view this Presidency?"

Barack Milhouse Obama, AJsDaddie, that's how.

[Tim]

"Ever notice how MadSow and Olbie have the same haircut, more or less?"

Him more; her less. Must have the same dog groomer.

[Dan Riehl]

Well, I hope they're transgendered so they can both sleep with it. Oh wait, that's not it. Damn. I'm terrible at Math. Though it might just add up to a threesome and solve everything. Ewwww!! lol

[the bishop]

They pay people for these comments, no wonder the DNC is hemorhaging cash

[Bl]

I understood before the election when liberals were under the magic spell of hope and change. But after witnessing President Obama distance himself from the likes of Ayers, Reverand Wright, Frank Marshall, Blagoyovich, Farahkan, Father Phleger, Tony Rezco; how can one now explain so many hard core liberals/socialists in his administration?

Obama certainly campaigned as a moderate Democrat, not as a Socialist. Was that honest? If you run as a Socialist, that would be fine. But to mislead the independent voters and the more conservative Democrats, and the more liberal Republicans was simply dishonest.

And when the doubters, like myself, question what happened to his promises of transparency, no-more pork, and no more lobbyists, posting online any bill to review before he would sign it, etc.; we're called racist haters and pessimistic whiners.

And a note to the Obots: If reason is not employed to formulate an opinion, reason cannot be employed to change that opinion.

[Bob]

"Ok Bob, here's an honest idea: I think that the president should stop attacking Fox. I think it's counter productive and Helen Thomas agrees with me. What does that say about you?"

What is this, junior high school? With important decisions to be made about the Afghanistan war and healthcare, what do wing nuts care about the most? Sean Hannity's little feelings. Again, you people have nothing positive to offer, no ideas, just petty whining about conditions inside your tiny little wing nut bubble.

[North Dallas Thirty]

And again, how could we possibly ask Bob to criticize the actions of the god-king Obama? We should remember that Bob is here to remind us that no one is to criticize Obama under any circumstances, that no criticism of Obama is "honest", that all criticism of Obama is wrong and likely "racist", and that anyone who criticizes Obama in any way is a "failed, whining loser". Certainly with that in mind, there is no way that Bob is capable of criticizing the god-king Obama; that would mean that Bob himself is dishonest, racist, and a failed, whining loser.

[MDr]

"With important decisions to be made about the Afghanistan war and healthcare," The One has time to huddle w/ two barking moonbats, go on a record breaking number of money raising events, and and campaign stumps.

Apparently Barry has his priorities and HC & Afghanistan are far down the list. Two months, and BO can't decide on Afghanistan, at a time of increased American deaths in the field. A plan he got from the Bush Admin, then implemented seven months ago, with his hand picked general.

[Ken McCracken]

Gah, I do have my head up my ass.

My comments were directed towards BOB, not DAN.

Sorry for the lazy typing, but if you transposed those names you will see that I am hardly an 'Obama sycophant'.

*Shudder*

Good God, perish the thought.

[templar knight]

Don't forget Barack's trip to Europe to whore for the Obamolympics in Chicago, or his upcoming trip to Europe to accept the Nobel Prize, MDr.

Ah, decisions...decisions, Bob. You've now become a parody of yourself.

[x11b1p]

I apologize Ken!

[Bob]

"Don't forget Barack's trip to Europe to whore for the Obamolympics in Chicago, or his upcoming trip to Europe to accept the Nobel Prize, MDr"

Isn't it about time for a chorus of those old wing nut chestnuts like, "Acorn!!!" or perhaps "Bill Ayers!!!" or perhaps "God Damn America!!!" The wing nut tribe needs a steady diet of such empty political theater else they run out of things to bitch about while leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about.

[templar knight]

Yeah, Bob, ACORN's not a problem, at least for lefty wingnuts like you. Shit, who cares about a few billion dollars used to sign up bogus voters, steal elections, help ruin the housing market, and on and on. Of course, to a nut like you, pointing out these things is just saying no.

Well, you're damned right, I'm saying NO.

NO to a trillion dollars wasted in a so-called stimulus bill that pumped dollars into every lefty wingnut operation that these leftists in the WH and Congrss now in charge could find. Payolla, boy, big time.

NO to another trillion dollar health care boondogle.

NO to another so-called stimulus.

So YES, sometimes NO is the best policy. You ought to STFU, Bob, before someone drops a house on you.

[O!]

"With important decisions to be made about the Afghanistan war and healthcare, what do wing nuts care about the most? Sean Hannity's little feelings."

Yes, but the "wing nuts" aren't in control of the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. So the relevant point that bothers most people is:

With important decisions to be made about the Afghanistan war and healthcare, what does Obama care about the most? Rachel Maddow's and Ken Olbermann's little feelings.

[xerocky]

"The wing nut tribe needs a steady diet of such empty political theater else they run out of things to bitch about while leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about.."

Ok Bob, here's a real problem for you; the Whitehouse is engaging in a losing battle and is alienating himself from a significant portion of the press. If this continues to happen he could ( already is?) end(ing) up being a lame duck president who surrounds himself with yes men in the press, Thus short circuiting our beloved system of checks and balances, which does involve the press. This is happening at a time when the country needs strong leadership, leadership that the Democrats themselves say is severely lacking.

Is that real enough for you? Do the consequences of that seem apparent, or do I need to continue to spell it out?

[O!]

" The wing nut tribe needs a steady diet of such empty political theater else they run out of things to bitch about while leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about."

As I pointed out, above, the "wing nut tribe" is not in control of the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. So again, what bothers most people is:

Obama needs a steady diet of such empty political theater else he runs out of things to bitch about while leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about.

[MDr]

"Obama needs a steady diet of such empty political theater "

And the underlying reasons are:
All hat, no cattle
Heap big smoke, no fire
Poster boy for - before you enagage in a battle of wits, make sure your opponent is armed

BO's guiding principle: "A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."

[WPE]

Actually, you're wrong. You can choose the problem - economy, Iran, Iraq, health care, etc - and Obama's doing something. You may not like it, but he's not simply ignoring problems.

But if you really want to bitch about politicians doing nothing, Republicans basically have no plan, nothing to contribute, and have turned into the Party of No. Too bad they didn't feel that way when they were running the country. Had they said no to a few things, we wouldn't be in the shape we are.

[Philip McDaniel]

I have it on good authority that 'Bob' is just a lobotomized 'jharp'.

[MDr]

"But if you really want to bitch about politicians doing nothing, Republicans basically have no plan, nothing to contribute, and have turned into the Party of No."

You really should read a little more than MoDo & Frank Rich, and watch another network than MSNBC (or CNN or the unholy network trinity, etc).

Maybe stop getting your marching orders from the Kos Kids or Huff & Puff.

The Dims have gone out of their, with help from the Leftist MSM to squelch every Republican plan/suggestion. The Dims have even resorted to locking the loyal opposition out of a committee room. I'm sure you've heard about that, and fully support. Come on, show your ass!

[MDr]

The increase in barking moonbat trolls here just adds an exclamation point to my thesis - the Far Left/Maoist/Marxist/Leninist/Stalinist/National Socialist are worried. Why else to vist this "little backwater of a blog"

Their stealth attack on American freedoms is slowly being peeled away; layer by layer. And as such they're all being exposed as having "no clothes". More and more Americans are now "seeing" the chains and shackles, underpinnings.

[x11b1p]

Bob said "The wing nut tribe needs a steady diet of such empty political theater else they run out of things to bitch about while leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about".

Thats it, shut the internet down, Dan close your site, Bob has just put up the most brilliant comment there ever was or ever will be posted anywhere. I mean - wing nut tribe - such an origianl term, and then to describe how this wingnut tribe's diet is of empty political theater is a priceless piece of wordsmithing, and the fact that he is so concerend about this tribe running out of things to complain about demonstrates his humanity, and the clincher, the phrase that should be written onto ever dollar bill after we put Bob's face onto it, "leaving all the REAL problems for someone else to worry about" - brings a tear to my eye when thinking about how in this little phrase he is able to use his god like ability to expalin to all of us what this wing nut tribe is really about.

Bravo Bob - I expect to see you hosting your own show soon as well and spending much more time at the White House. I am so much more enlightened after reading Bob's comment, I can now die a happy man - Bob you complete me.

[WAHOO WILLIE]

"You can choose the problem - economy, Iran, Iraq, health care, etc"
economy, unemployment inching toward 10% (that they admit) raising taxes, killing small business, tripling the deficit, killing credit availability.

Iran, Well, to be far he has them SAYING they will send material to Russia to make fuel vis weapons (50% Credit)

Iraq, Losing a no win situation. I'd give him a pass if he'd just drop it and move the troops to A'stan

health care, This one's great! Can't pick between 5 bills but has his followers convinced he has something. His fave raises costs to taxpayers, covers just about half of the mythical 50 gazillion uncovered people who dont have insurance, increases taxes, wonderful, great job. The best thing I've heard is FORCING you slacker asshats to get coverage or be fined.

Yep, something's better than nothing, no matter who/what it costs.

[Bob]

"Bravo Bob - I expect to see you hosting your own show soon as well and spending much more time at the White House. I am so much more enlightened after reading Bob's comment, I can now die a happy man - Bob you complete me."

When challenged over their petty, non-constructive bitching, how does a representative wing-nut respond? Of course: more petty bitching.

[WPE]

Here's what happens to Republicans Big Ideas. Offer to take them up on it, they just Say No:

"So, right there in the Cabinet Room, the President put a proposal on the table, according to two people who were present. Obama said he was willing to curb malpractice awards, a move long sought by the Republicans and certain to bring strong opposition from the trial lawyers who fund the Democratic Party.

What, he wanted to know, did the Republicans have to offer in return? Nothing, it turned out. Republicans were unprepared to make any concessions, if they had any to make."

********
Afghanistan's been a black hole for everybody that went to war there. I was for going in after 9/11. Now, it's turned into another mess.

Pass a strong public option, even Wahoo'll be signing up.

[WAHOO WILLIE]

Unprepared to make "ANY" concessions or particular concessions? Yeah, kinda murky without knowing the whole story.

Yes, A'stan has been a quagmire for everyone in history. The difference being that everyone else was trying to conquer the Afghans. Now they want the Taliban and AQ out of there bad enough to accept anyone's help. This is not saying that it isn't still a "black hole". I don't believe we can possibly kill them all. The question is whether you prefer fighting them there or here?

"Pass a strong public option, even Wahoo'll be signing up." Absolutely not unless it's at gunpoint.....which it will end up being. I do love the idea of you paying Limbo's health insurance though.

[WPE]

"I do love the idea of you paying Limbo's health insurance though."

I don't think Hillbilly Heroin or Viagra are covered. But yeah, Rush would probably sign up if he thought it would save him a dime. Kinda like how he bashed the ACLU for years then happily took their help when he was worried his medical records might become public.

The malpractive story is from Time: http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1895706,00.html

And then this:

WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- Republicans rejected President Barack Obama's overture to take steps to consider addressing medical malpractice liability as part of health care reform, calling it a disingenuous offer

[WAHOO WILLIE]

"to take steps to consider"

Dude, is english your second language? "I MIGHT, THINK about POSSIBLY doing something about malpractice insurance. That is, if I feel like it later."

W, the very first thing that will happen with you pubic "option" is that federal employees/retirees will be forced into it....ie no more "here are 5-6 contracted insurers, pick one" Next will come state/local govt employees. With losses of millions of clients, insurers will have to skyjack their rates and large companies will bail....then small companies will bail, then you're being told that since you're 64, that knee replacement isn't happening. I wonder how pissed you'll be though when Will Ferrel, who's 30 years older than you, flies off to some free country and has both of his replaced.

[North Dallas Thirty]

Yup, they didn't tell the whole story.

"When Barack Obama informed congressional Republicans last month that he would support a controversial parliamentary move to protect health-care reform from a filibuster in the Senate, they were furious."

So Barack the Thug threatened them, then demanded they make "concessions" to stop him from threatening them.

Republicans are much smarter than that. They know thugs like Obama don't keep their promises. They saw it with the insurance industry, they saw it with doctors, they saw it with independents, and they are aware of the fact that every single one of Barack Obama's promises come with an expiration date.

So they told the thug to get lost, and thug Obama ran screaming away.

[MDr]

North Dallas Thirty

Obie's "grand" compromise was to set up "pilot" experiments in several states, with no guaranteed funding. Mighty big of him.

Let me take the liberty of slightly re-writing part of your last line, ie
"and thug Obama ran screaming away."

and the fascist thug Obama ran screaming away, with wee wee running down his leg, to the surprise of few.

[WPE]

"to take steps to consider"

Ya gotta start someplace.

Geez Wahoo, you've started drinking the koolaid. Fact is we spend twice as much as most countries on health care and don't get what we're paying for. All you so-called fiscal conservatives may like throwing money away, I don't. I can't wait to sign up for the Public Option and tell Blue Cross to stuff their coverage.

Obama's not a thug, he's a politician, pretty much all of whom say stuff they either can't or won't do.

If Republicans were so smart, how'd they manage to nominate Sarah Palin as their VP?

[Xerocky]

"If Republicans were so smart, how'd they manage to nominate Sarah Palin as their VP? "

Back to the well eh?

And who's out of ideas?

[North Dallas Thirty]

"Fact is we spend twice as much as most countries on health care and don't get what we're paying for."

Correction. Welfare addicts like yourself get exactly the health care for which you work and pay, which is nothing. Those of us who decided to prioritize education and a work ethic are doing just fine, thank you.

[xerocky]

"Those of us who decided to prioritize education and a work ethic are doing just fine, thank you."

You know NDT, I don't know how many times I've told liberals that I know that I have fine healthcare and I for one don't want things to change all that much. Rather than admit that they also have pretty good healthcare because they went to school and got good jobs, they always sight stats that "prove" there's a crisis.

Even the welfare addicts that you mention aren't doing all THAT bad. The liberal mindset is that NOTHING is ever working, wha whaaa. And when those who aren't doing all that bad disagree, they scream that we have no ideas.
