Quote of the Day
“For a guy who’s got nothing but adoring press for seven years, and is unknown to 70 percent of the public, it’s not easy to win if you’re a single-issue candidate. Our feeling is, bring him on.” -- Democratic State Chairman Joseph Cryan, on Republican Chris Christie, who is resigning as U.S. Attorney to run for Governor.

This is a good one
Its a good cartoon, although it takes what Obama said and completely takes it out of context. Barack's quote comes from an abortion question where he noted that he was not able to proclaim definativly whether a fetus is a child and that the question involved both scientific and religious overtones.
Nice
Isn't it a Muslim insult to show the bottom of your feet? I guess this really captured the Obama disdain of our Military, not just his incompetence.
You go, Tornoe!
"Study the Constitution, Let it be preached fom the pulpit, proclaimed in the legislatures,and enforced in courts of justice." ~ Abraham Lincoln
maybe it's disdain for russians
it doesn't get any more american than that(even for a muslim).
any links to his phony birth certification you'd like to share?
got a copy of that "whitey" tape?
got tinfoil?
REPUBLICAN CONSCIENCE?
A oxymoron I assume? The conscience man suggests that Obama has a "disrespect for our military. Meanwhile the architects of this occupation have sat idly by while our soldiers are endangered by not being provided the necessary equipment because it may "infringe" upon long-term procurement contracts which have resulted in the gouging of the American taxpayer. As the Grand Ole Party arrives in Minnesota for their convention I hope they soak in their trip past the Larry Craig restroom and the bridge that is no more all the while failing to realize that their party is predicated almost completely on an empty set of symbols. Debt, Destruction, and Hypocrisy are what every patriotic American believes in.
Great Cartoon!
I still can't believe Obama answered a question with the "pay grade" comment. Does he think he's running for president of a fraternity?
"I figure people drift toward liberalism at a young age, and I always hope that they change when they see how the world really is.”
- Johnny Ramone
Yes
Joe I assume you are smart enough to realize that "pay grade" is a figure of speech. If you feel that you are qualified to speak on the morality of all religious and scientific opinion in the world and the cosmos you are sadly mistaken.
