He DVRs Hannity, O'Reilly, and whoever else is on Fox News (I'm not making this up) and then tells me I'm brainwashed by the liberal media when I don't agree with him about anything.

    He also said one time, "I don't get why you ever vote democrat. You're a Jew, you should be voting republican. They're the ones looking out for your money." A fist to the kidney was enough that he hasn't blurted anything out like that again.

    I see you guys took the bait like the author of the article did. This is nothing more than phony Brit outrage.

    Here's what really happened:
    From Prime Minister David Cameron to ordinary Londoners rushing to work, Britons recoiled at the visiting American’s suggestion that the logistical problems encountered so far were “disconcerting.” Many who have themselves been slamming organizers as incompetent, and the massive competition as an expensive fiasco, are suddenly rallying around the flag.
    In other words, the Limeys are running around for months squawking about Olympics organizers incompetence, cost overruns, lack of security and every other damn thing that Limeys complain about on a regular basis and when an American (who successfully ran an Olympics) says the exact same thing, they crap their knickers.

    It's nothing more than you referring to your brother as a complete idiot but if I refer to him that way you defend the hell out of him. Nothing to see here folks, move along.

    But hey, maybe he brought them some DVDs that don't work on their systems. Oy.

    Right-wingers are absolutely convinced that Obama wants to cancel our membership in this imaginary country club of Anglo-Saxon nations.

    I love how you bolded the quote pointing out that they are rallying around the flag. Do you realize that is like when we all bash Philly and than an outsider does it, we get pissed and pile on them. So, Romney pissed off the English, and that is a fact jack. Listen, the dude screwed up, you don't have to defend everything someone does.

    Did you even read my post? I said the exact same thing only I used "your brother" as the example.

    He didn't screw up, he merely gave his opinion (which was the same as everyone else's) that there are issues running an Olympics. It was phony outrage from the Brits that set this off. And you certainly don't have to attack him for something so frivilous.

    Like I said, next time just bring them DVDs that don't work on their systems. No one gives a damn about those gaffes.

    That is true, but me and you saying they are doing a bad job and a president, which he wants to be, saying that while visiting the country are different. In diplomacy you have to be aware of who you are talking to, and insulting our closest ally, no matter how true the statement, just shows a lack of diplomatic touch.

    Honestly, the guy needs a new leadership team. I don't want to see him win, but he should be killing Obama, the economy sucks, everyone is broke and miserable. Every other Western Democracy has tossed out its government on election day because the whole world is miserable, and the races were never this close.

    Fair enough.

    In the end he should have just said "running an Olympics is difficult but I'm sure the British will give us a great games". Or something to that effect.

    I think they're all afraid he's gonna use stem cells and aborted fetuses to resurrect Nat Turner and John Brown.


    John Brown's body lies a-mouldering in the grave...
