Well, Obama's lost Andrew Sullivan with this, and John Marshall thinks it's a big mistake. Meanwhile, John Boehner says the President must answer to Congress about it (because he's a Democrat Socialist Kenyan; if he were a Republican, it'd be Yee-Haw!), and apparently the left has gone apeshit and a primary challenge is inevitable.

*sigh* I just don't know anymore. I feel deep down, and through the evidence of my eyes, that Obama is the best we've got (which, depending on one's view, is a sad state of affairs) and am thoroughly demoralized by the fact that we (the non-insane) just can't seem to get a victory. And then I feel guilty for falling into the tribal party-politics that are ruining this nation like some braindead Tea Party Hoveround. *sigh* Will somebody hold me and tell me it'll all be all right? I think some of Ken's apocalyptic attitude has insinuated itself into my psyche tonight.

Who's the president in 1986?

Ronald Reagan?! THE ACTOR?!?!?

Ha! Then who's vice-president, Jerry Lewis? And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury!

Speaking of down fisting, I'm now being followed by a troll carrying a heavy heavy load. It hasn't done a thing for my pee points. Well, except piss me off but who or what has time to follow 400+ people?Can I shake off or do I need to hire an exterminator?

No, no it's only the BAD Libyans that are being blown up, their army's bugged out and we're shooting Mercenaries. We won't start killing civies until <strike>Saddam</strike> Gaddhafy is firmly deposed and we still don't have our oil.
