BP isn't "British Petroleum" any more it's just "BP". Both BP and BT (British Telecom) changed their names to just the abbreviation after they were privatised in the 80s. They're publicly owned private corporations and no more or less "British" than any other, no matter their history.

So don't start blaming us as a nation just because the company USED to be a state-run business and the English CEO is a cock.

NPR Poll Shows Tough Road Ahead For Democrats

June 15, 2010

A new public opinion survey for NPR shows just how difficult it will be for Democrats to avoid big losses in the House this November.

Democrat Stan Greenberg and Republican Glen Bolger conducted the first public battleground poll of this election cycle. They chose the 70 House districts experts regard as most likely to oust incumbents this fall. What they found was grim news for Democrats.

People are unhappy with Republicans in charge so they vote 'em out. When the Democrats are in charge, they're unhappy with them, too. Solution? Republicans! Oh wait, these guys suck to. Next time we'll get some Democrats to fix this. F'n Democrats - we need Republicans...

When people finally figure out that it's not one party or the other that make things shitty, but the fundamental system upon which they operate, maybe something will change. The average American is too stupid for me to have much hope, though.

Komrade Obama
Someone wake me up when Obama actually becomes a socialist. We should be so lucky. Obviously idiots like you wouldn't know a socialist if Karl Marx travelled through time, walked up and knocked Glenn Beck's cock out of your mouth.

Komrade was actually a flippant way to call him a communist. Of course you have no idea the answer to what was wrong with this, but I never expected you to.

Lets see... could it be the teleprompter panels? They're there for when he delivers his prepared comments, and then are lowered during Q&A sessions (as they are in this photo). Did I get it? It's just a wild-assed guess since I'm not really tuned into the teabagging nutbar mindset. In either event, my point remains: Obama is about as socialist as you are.

Nope and nope. FWIW, would that so called Republican have been offended if Colin Powell was president?


As a hint, there is something missing from the background. Something that this shithead has had some issues with already during his first and last term.

Ahh yes, you nuts and your flag fetish. The guy can't swing a dead cat without hitting a stupid flag, but he had them take just these down. I'm sure he was all like, "Hey, someone get those fucking flags out of my shot, I hate that fucking rag. Yeah, I'm almost ready, just let me get my flag lapel pin on."

The flag is to reagan's right, which is the traditional place for it. That photo has other angles that show it. Interesting that is the not to the left...or is that ironic?

Methinks you could find better things to gripe about. However, since we're on the topic, what exactly are you implying the lack of a flag suggests? That he is a communist? Seriously?

Oh, and snopes says you're wrong, btw.

Like I said, he just banished the flag for this appearance. Probably just to send a message directly to Kilmoll. Oh wait, maybe it's a signal to other members of his sleeper cell to activate to destroy what's left of America? Something must be done! **

My next guess was going to be that he removed or covered any semi nude statues that were suppossed to be there because he is a religious fucking nut job who thinks dancing is evil.

Then I remembered that was Rumsfeld.

Nor does posting as "proof" the results of a web survey (not a scientific poll) that were without doubt teabagged by the likes of #tcot and have zero resemblance to actual polling data.

It's sad too. I work with local-level politicians often, and it is just terrible to see non-whacko Republicans move further and further towards the deep end. Seriously, I had a well-respected County Commissioner start talking to me about the birther shit yesterday. Gave blank stare, and did my best to suppress laughter.

A first time event today! Poll takers quit carrying water for Obama. None show him in positive territory. Just Reuters shows him with a tie at 48 to 48. All other recent polls show him significantly negative. Even USA Today/Gallup has him at -12!

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls ... -1044.html

George W. Bush governed quite effectively with approval ratings at 30%. Obama can turn the page next year and govern in righteous fury and opposition to those evil white Republicans controlling Congress. I expect his approval rating will actually increase when he is given a new lease on life for playing the blame game.
