Of course, I feel he's off base about what Americans want (healthcare reform) but the rest of his points are solid.

I don't always agree with him, but he is pretty entertaining and he occasionally makes some good points.

OMG OBAMA EATS HIS BURGER WRONG!!!!

Man, if spicy mustard was a more frequent option I'd certainly use it on burgers more often.

Hell, at home, if we have it, it's still usually the same brand the generic yellow stuff comes in. Does anyone seriously think French's Brown Mustard is Grey Poupon?

Obama is sexy and he knows it.

Thats dumb. I only use mustard, too. Why add ketchup? Thats what a slice of tomato is for.

But whats that about mayo? Sounds gross, imo.

I've always hated the 'trickle down' metaphor. It makes me think that rich people are peeing on us middle-class folks, and golden showers are never a good idea unless you're being showered with gold coins.

It's funny because another name for the concept is the "horse and sparrow theory". The idea is that if you feed the horse enough oats.... nah.. it's funnier if I let you ask google for an explanation.

The pundits and politicians stopped talking about trickle down theory altogether at this point, as certain elements of the right sought to eliminate the appearance of a wealth disparity altogether in a David Copperfield-esque performance.

So there are no "rich" or "poor" people anymore, just "job creators" and "soon to be rich". Punishing "Job Creators" with regulation and taxes will simply make it that much harder for you when you become one of'em.

Obama is never gonna come back from this one. This sandwich was at least one foot long. It's pathetic!

Presenting a new way to "feel" how well the candidates from the GOP are doing.

Usually, the idea of a parody is to take something true and push it to the extreme. Only the first one is doing it right.

Apparently you don't remember the last election very well.

Burkingam · « **Reply #197 on:** May 15, 2012, 02:03:52 PM »

I don't Remember Obama sprouting 9/11 and AIDS conspiracy theories and the support for the Afghanistan was has always been higher then for Iraq. It has nothing to do with Obama.

That last one made me sigh in sadness. Not surprise, though. Just sadness.
