President Obama Gives An Encore

The last time President Obama serenaded the people, I took a Magic Eraser to that memory, because I didn't want to accidentally bring it up while talking to my mom. Almost every time Obama's name comes up, my mom gets fluttery in the voice and I can tell she's about to go through some changes. That is my cue to pick up and go. It's like whenever I'm at her house and Anderson Cooper pops up on the TV, she jumps off of her La-Z-Boy and the next thing I hear is her bedroom door shutting, locking and the sound of Julio Iglesias' greatest hits blasting from her stereo. It's like that. My mom did bring up Sinatra Obama's last singing performance and our conversation went something like this:

Mom: Did you see Obama singing the other night?

Me: Um...um... Yish, but Anderson Cooper's on my TV right now!

Mom: *click*

So I'm not exactly amused with President Obama for picking up the mic at the White House's all-star blues concert last night and singing out a few lines of "Sweet Home Chicago" with BB King and Mick Jagger. Obama is just fucking with me now. If Obama gets re-elected and keeps singing out, it's going to be a long four years of awkward moments and phone hang-ups. Obama's new motto should be: Yes, I Can Make You Reach For The Brain Clorox As I Make Your Momma Go Through Some Changes.

Oh, and another thing:

To suggest that the near collapse of the US economy was the result of a higher minimum wage???? IS THAT A JOKE? SERIOUSLY, HOW DUMB ARE YOU PEOPLE?

Loving the haters on every President Obama post... so, how's that romney-santorum-gingrich-paul thing workin' out for yas?

To be Republican and to claim to be "all for gay rights" is as hypocritical as claiming to be "pro-life" while being a war monger, upholding the death penalty and not giving a crap about people dying preventable deaths because of lack of health insurance.

******

Hey big mouth: dont assume to know where I stand on social issues. Who the fuck are you to tell me I'm a hypocrite? I'm catholic too - doesnt mean I believe in everything the catholic church tries to cram down my throat. I'm pro choice, bitch. I'm also all for gay rights! But do I believe that our deficit should've tripled in the past 3 year!? HELL FUCKIN' NO!!! And you really think that the government (who cant even balance a budget) is going to do any better controlling health care?! Delusional. Right now the immigrants in this country dont seem to have a problem getting free health coverage ... maybe we should work on those immigration LAWS !

Your mom goes through some changes whenever Obama's name is brought up MK? what kind of changes would those be? My mother watches Fox News on a daily basis and anytime the news mentions his name the next thing I hear is her screaming that "Obama is ruining this country, our economy has gone down the tubes, its all because of him, its all his fault!" and blah blah blah. I always remind her that Bush Jr. fucked up this country to begin with and that Obama has had to come up behind him to help clean up the mess but she doesn't listen to me and no one does when you live in a red state. Oh what fun it is to be in the liberal minority out here..

If you vote for any of the Republicans running for president, they have vowed to rollback on the few victories gained by the gay community (the abolition of DADT, etc.)

To be Republican and to claim to be "all for gay rights" is as hypocritical as claiming to be "pro-life" while being a war monger, upholding the death penalty and not giving a crap about people dying preventable deaths because of lack of health insurance.

And again, can any of you idiots explain how Democrats are to blame for Wall Street getting into the mortgage business when it has been Republicans who have always been pushing (and are STILL pushing) for derregulation? Any one of you teabaggers care to answer that question???

Get a clue, or better yet start by getting a brain!

*****************************************

THANKYOUVERYMUCH.

Uh, like ya. That started happening right after the Democrats took control of Congress in 2007. Raised the mim wage fuckign 45% first thing. and boom. job loss. How soon you Dumbacrats forget.
**************

Some of the worst decisions were made while Dems controlled the HOUSE. How is it that liberals have such a selective memory. And lets not get started on the Housing crisis.

As for conservatives coming to Dlisted ... are you kidding me?! MK writes about celebrities! His sexual orientation doesnt phase me. I'm all for gay rights. Just because some of us are fiscally conservative now we have to be homophobes too? Yeah. OK. Get a clue, ignoramus !

Oh, and another thing:

To suggest that the near collapse of the US economy was the result of a higher minimum wage???? IS THAT A JOKE? SERIOUSLY, HOW DUMB ARE YOU PEOPLE? Everyone knows that the rampant derregulation that allowed the Wall Street financial institutions to get into the predatory lending business, and the complicity of the rating agencies, was the sole culprit of not only the economic disaster here, but around the world.

But you would have to actually be an intelligent, thinking human being to know that, and well, based on the candidates vying to run against Obama, it is clear that intelligence is not a requirement for being Republican.
*****************************************

THANKYOUVERYMUCH.

It is funny to me that people that want Romney/Gingrich/Santorum to be president, who clearly want to send the country back 100 years with their repressive/oppressive/conservative beliefs would be regular readers of a blog written by a gay man.

You don't want him to have the same rights as you, but you want to be entertained by him? How dreadful.

Here's the problem with your logic, we were losing 750,000 jobs a month when Obama came into office.

I love arguments against affirmative action, like the world is actually a meritocracy. How do you think GW got into Yale? The biggest set asides for spaces at least into in the mid-90s (when I was last in an academic environment to argue this shit) at elite universities was for alumni spawn.

Yes. Of course. That is why John John went to Brown, despite being the son of the most famous graduate of Harvard and the scion of the most powerful family in Massechusetts.

And overall, between universities and the workplace, the biggest benefactors of affirmative action/diversity policies are white women, especially those from upper income families(i.e. the daughters of wealthy, white men)

Also I love the sense of entitlement that some people have, as if but for affirmative action, they would have gotten into Harvard, gotten that job, whatever. It's so foreign to me, I'll never be able to understand it.

liverwurst...wow, so you're saying you've never taken a 15 min. break at work? Or do you always hold your public officials to ridiculous standards? Or is it just *this* President that people seem to have an issue with for pretty much no reason.
Keep reaching.

I can't wait until he wins re-election in a landslide. It's not just that the competition is retarded (which they are. Btw, Poople, Mittens "ran businesses" by putting people out of WORK. He also has sleazy offshore accounts. Did you forget that part? Newt isn't the Speaker of the House anymore bc he got rode out of town on a rail over his HUNDREDS of ethics charges! Yeah. Great picks.), it's that he's just that great of a President.

Cute video. He doesn't want to be a rock star *eye roll*. He was having fun and so was everyone else. People bitching about it should try it some time.

Oh Dave, you are right, I think he could do better on both those counts and others. I wouldn't call him anti-gay per se as I would Republicans but yes, it's time he was more supportive on that front. Thanks for the link.

I don't think he's cute. He is anti-gay for one thing, and seems willing to say or do anything. I can't believe more people aren't alarmed by the way he signed the defense bill "with reservations" (no pun intended?)

AGAIN, anything Obama has done MUST be the FIRST time it has EVER been done in the history of the universe!! First time being presented with prize, first time visiting a head of state and presenting a gift, first time wasting time on a song, first time getting a law degree, first time meeting with celebrities, first time taking a vacation, etc. etc. NO OTHER PRESIDENT EVER DID any of these things. Mercy!

He has faults like everyone else. His critics are laughable sometimes! LMAO!

TANGELINE's picture

@Poopele,

So the president is an affirmative action law degree? That is all the idiocy your brain cells can muscle up? I guess AA gives out degress to blacks.. LOL
Here's the problem with your logic, we were losing 750,000 jobs a month when Obama came into office. We were already in a recession. I work near the banks and courts, before Obama came in.. People were standing in lines pulling out their money. How soon you Repubtards forget reality.

Since many of you - even the conservatives - don't get it. In order to get the economy going you have to spend, that is why the bailout was necessary because we couldn't afford for the banks to fail at the rate things were going.

It's funny how you are praising Romney but Obama's healthcare Bill is the same thing, yet Obama is bad???
I can go on, but I realize that you folks are stuck in your ignorant views of the "other" and nothing, not even facts will change your mindset.

The Republicans have no plan. In all the debates, all I hear is lowering taxes, but on whom? Look where deregulation and tax breaks got us, and let's not forget your wars. Spare me the haterade!

----------------------------------------------Yes, of course. Trading a guy who has an affirmative-action law degree and a fake Nobel prize who has quadrupled the national deficit to levels never seen in peace time, leading to perrenial unemployment rates never seen since the great depression, who has pushed the National Debt over 100% of GDP for no discernable economic benefit, who has handed Libya, Egypt and next Syria to the Muslim Brotherhood, while Iran develops nuclear weapons is much scarier than..

A Harvard MBA + Harvard Attorney who has run successful businesses, been a governor and turned around an apparently failing Olypmpics game and paid 3 million in taxes to the Federal Government in one year and then also gave 3 million dollars in Charity to his church.

or...

A PHD in History who has written a couple of dozen books, who was also the Speaker of the House who for the only time in five decades actually balanced the US budget and produced a surplus.

Ha ha to you idiots who think Obama has done something wrong--the only bad thing he has done to the country might be that we had to hear him sing. But then, at least we got to see the beautiful spectacle of BB King in the White House.

The only thing Obamas haters have is the Hate. That's why they can never come up with anything he actually did wrong. Troops coming home from BOTH Iraq and Afghanistan. Bin Laden, BAM! Libya? Khadaffi OUT! A second great depression averted, positive changes on nearly every domestic issue, including for the first time letting people have decent access to health insurance. Thank you Big O!

Or smiling at a funeral.
Or groping foreign dignitaries.
Or being a drunken ass in public at the olympics.

How these right-wing religious nuts think they have the right to regulate what goes on in people's bedrooms is mind-boggling. What difference does it make to them if someone is having a threesome behind closed doors as long as it it doesn't involve kids or animals and is consensual? Because the economy and the foreign diplomatic situations and the poverty issues don't matter. What matters is if someone is getting busy in any way but the missionary position with ONE member of the opposite sex!

I like to have sex with the lights on sometimes so I guess that makes me a rebel. Idiots.
