The reason Obama is struggling
with USA 101 is his failure to complete the prerequisites.
If he truly wants to avoid political wedgies, he should start with Remedial Constitution and learn what his new job does and does not allow him to do.

The Obama Love Affair
I loved this post! I’m still giggling.
You know it really irritates me that the Press and just about every other liberal expects us to show ultimate respect for Mr. Obama, and “give him a chance”. We’re supposed to just give him a free pass. Why? Someone give me one good reason why we should join in on this Obama/Media Love Affair?
And could someone please tell me why Chris Matthews gets a tingling feeling up his leg whenever Obama is around, or why people like the doofus college student in Florida virtually worships Obama? I mean seriously, why do they love him so much?

Too Funny
This made me laugh and I loved the Clinton line.
As for the love fest, I have yet to figure that out. I ask people who say they love him, but can't really give me a reason why. Okay!
As for giving him a break, no sorry, no one else gets one. Grow Up Mr. Present Senator.

You Go, Verne
This is priceless and I also had to laugh a couple times reading your commentary. Great job.
I heard a saying awhile back that might fit here, 'if you want to play with the big dogs, you can't pee like a pup.'
Like a bad penny, I will turn up again to read more of your postings.

Thanks for stopping by the Crow's Nest, and for your gracious comments.
Now, if I misunderstood your question, feel free to chastise my impertinence.
Townhall will notify you by email whenever there is a comment left on your site, and state who posted the comment. That includes any comments you place there yourself in response to others. Townhall does not tie your replies to any comments, or notify the persons making the original comments of your reply. The best way to acknowledge someone is to add your own comment, and address the person you are responding to by name in the subject line. Most people who post a comment will return to see if there was a response.
Keep up the good work, we can use your common sense views.

Well Verne, this is my first

Hey verne
I left comments for myself when i first started on here too. When you click on someones name ( blue and underlined ) it takes you to their blog, You chould leave your comment on their latest post. doesn't really matter where you leave it, but if you leave it as a comment on their blog they will see it as a recent comment. some folks congregate at particular blogs and just have conversations as a continuous series of comments on that page.

Bobbie: I'm signed up!
Hello again. You're 72? Say it ain't so! Well, then we have more in common than sage sayings about things political. I will look forward to getting to know you, and staying active on the "elite" TH website you invited me to join. I'll tell you, there is so much philosophical junk, left-wing dogma, and socialist brainwashing out there that's it tough to stomp out the brushfires that are springing up. But let's give it a go. I know you will, and that others on SpeakUpAmerica will too. God bless you, Bobbie, and take care. Verne.

See ,hear, speak no evil
Oh my, now you have done it Verne. You put the humor into the humorless liberal mindset and took off on the faux Messiah. You will be audited. You will be hounded. Your church will have an IRS guy there next Sun. No one can deal with the Olympian God and speak roughly without the NSA, CIA, and DIA being on your back. Congrats for being 72. But after this scat against the Man, I pray you make it to 73. Remember Ft.Marcy Park? Drop by.

Rackoons re Roy Perez
Dear Rackoons: I sent an anonymous post tonight to Reverend Ken. He really moved me with his courageous memorial for Mr. Perez, who apparently came to Christ after a rather raucous life. Very inspiring. What is your connection to these people? I become aware of so many outstanding individuals via Townhall and Bobbie's Christian friends and bloggers on Prayer Requests. God bless you, brother. Good night.

nobody uses the double standard
as much as democrats have this past year. Hated Iraq, supports more troops overseas now. Went nuts under Gore's loosing in Fl, yet never said a word about ACORN. Calls Christianity hater, yet would never say a bad thing about Islam. Told Palin she was not experienced enough, yet voted for Obama! Calls for Bipartisanship, yet had to say I won to the GOP. I could go on but I'm hungry. Great post and stop by my blog if you get bored!

Love affair with'O' self-serving motives
The blacks love him because he is one of them, Youth love the Celebrity and Santa'Obama goodies image! The Hispanics like his illegal immigrant position, the Muslins, take pride in Obamas Muslin father kinship, the lower classes and underprivileged have been promised deliverance from their deprived lifestyles, the elitist liberal Dems., love the power they can possess from parrot puppet Obama, in as much, as
they can counsel and control the Presidents policys. The liberal press hate Bush that much to bow and scrape for the biggest 'change' man The mouthpiece 'O' is a beloved vessel for their input and desires! Not only is Obama an empty suit, he has an empty mind that must be filled with the wisdom & experience of those great minds, who have what it takes to be a leader! The Novice 'O' is not ready yet, in a few years maybe? Will his devoted fans be fickle or stay the course?! They don't care about substance, just hand outs and a feel good message! Ex Dem,.
