Barack Obama

From Marc Ambinder at TheAtlantic.com:

Even in the midst of a difficult and taxing health care fight, the president hasn’t lost his sense of humor–especially when making fun of his opponents. Last night at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser in San Francisco, the president offered an analogy for opponents of Demcoratic reforms: when I’m cleaning up your mess, don’t tell me how to hold the mop…and don’t tell me the mop is socialist. From a White House transcript of Obama’s remarks:

What I reject is when some folks say we should go back to the past policies when it was those very same policies that got us into this mess in the first place.  (Applause.)

Another way of putting it is when, you know, I’m busy and Nancy busy with our mop cleaning up somebody else’s mess — we don’t want somebody sitting back saying, you’re not holding the mop the right way.  (Applause.)  Why don’t you grab a mop, why don’t you help clean up.  (Applause.)  You’re not mopping fast enough.  (Laughter.)  That’s a socialist mop.  (Laughter and applause.)  Grab a mop — let’s get to work.

    I HAVE TO AGREE-WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA ON THIS ONE BECAUSE ITS ALL SO TRUE…HE DIDN’T WASTE THE SH*T ON THE FLOOR ALL THE PRESIDENT BEFORE HIM DID ALONG-WITH THE (D)&(R)PARTIES AND NOW THEY WANT (PRESIDENT OBAMA)HIM TO CLEAN IT UP-BECAUSE THEY CAN’T TAKE THE SH*T SMELL. ITS HUMOR THAT I FIND ALSO TRUE AND FUNNY TO LAUGH AT AND YES YA’LL ALL NEED TO GRAB A MOP AND HELP THE PRESIDENT CLEAN HOUSE.

    The republicans broke out the windows,holes in the roof,destroyed the walls,made the wooden floors filthy,destroyed the carpet,left filthy dishes all over the kitchen,caused potholes in the driveway,broke the door on the garage,etc,and then left everything like it was,they did’nt even pay the mortgage.and now after all this damage they want to give their opinion on how to straighten everything out.who needs their input now.if they know how to fix all of the problems why did’nt they do it when they had possesion of the house.they even started fights with people from other neighborhoods and left the people waiting to finish the fight.now the democrats have to try and clean up this awful mess.they don’t need the republicans who are now being paid to make it worse.they need to take their money and leave the country,because now they are also causing death.have’nt they done enough damage already,and the ultimate,death.the democrats have gotten all the equipment they need and they are doing their best to turn this republican mess around and clean it up.but the republicans who have been paid to make it worse are doing everything they can to interfere.all they are offering is more evil,soulless,racist destruction.that’s what they are and that’s what their good at.

    QUESTION-CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME OR POINT OUT WHAT PRESIDENT OBAMA DID TO HURT AMERICA-THAT ALLLLLLLLLL THE PRESIDENT WHO CAME BEFORE HIM-HADN’T ALREADY DONE? EVERYONE WHO VOTED PUT THESE PRESIDENT IN OFFICE FOR 4 TO 8 YEARS AND STILL NOTHING WAS DONE TIMES GOT HARDER,WARS WE DID NOT NEED,JOBS GOT LESS,GAS WENT UP,AND SO DID THE FOOD PRIZE,PEOPLE LOSE THERE HOMES,CARS,AND ETC-BUT YET YOU STILL PUT THE SAME PRESIDENT IN OFFICE WHO CLAIM TO BETTER AMERICA FOR ANOTHER 4 YEARS IN-WHICH GAVE HIM 8 YEARS IN OFFICE AND DONE NOTHING. NOW-THAT OUR PRESIDENT IS BLLLLLACK AND TRYING TO PUT FORTH AND BRING CHANGE YOU GOT BOTH PARTIES FIGHTING AGAINST HIM. EVEN CONGRESS ARE COMIG OUT-NAME CALLING,WHEN THESE WAS THE SAME A$$HOLES WHO VOTED 4 YEARS AND THEN ANOTHER 4YEARS WHICH GAVE 8 YEARS TO A PRESIDENT WHO DONE NOTHING BUT,BRING AMERICA TO IT WEAKNESS AND STARTED A WAR WHICH WE DIDN’T NEED AND STOOD BY AND WATCHED ALLLLL THOSE PEOPLE DIED IN 9/11. DID BUSH KNOW THAT-THIS MATTER DEALING WITH THE 9/11 WAS GOING TO HAPPEN-YES THE HELL HE DID-BECAUSE HE TOOK HIS FAMILY AND WENT INTO HIDING AND LEFT ALLLL THOSE PEOPLE TO DIE. THE SAME NEWS MEDIA THATS SO FAST TO THROW PRESIDENT OBAMA NAME OUT THERE LIKE ITS A CRIME-ON 9/11 WAS OUT TELLING YOU WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH 9/11-SO YOU KNOW BUSH NEW FOR SURE WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN BUT-STILL DONE NOTHING AND ALL OF YOU WHO VOTED 8 YEARS FOR THIS PRESIDENT ARE NOW DOING WHAT? COMPLAINING-ABOUT PRESIDENT OBAMA-WHEN HELL YOU HAVE NOOOOOOOOOT GAVE HIM A CHANCE TO DO ANYTHING AND YOU KNOW ITS NOT JUST PRESIDENT OBAMA WHO IS NOT DOING HIS JOB ITS THE REPUBLICAN,DEMOCRATIC,AND CONGRESS-WHO ARE ALSO TO BLAME FOR THIS MESS AMERICA IS IN-NOT PRESIDENT OBAMA. JUST LIKE WHEN PRESIDENT OBAMA GOT THE CHECKS APPOVED-SOME CONGRESS WOULDN’T TAKE THE MONEY. I BET SOME OF YOU DIDN’T KNOW THAT-DID YOU? ITS ALOT OF MONEY THAT HAS BEEN PASSED DOWN TO CONGRESS AND YOU NEVER SEE IT BECAUSE-THEY SPEND IT HOW THEY SEE FIT AND THEN THE REST GO TO YOUR COMMISSIONER-WHO THEN SEE HOW IT CAN BETTER YOUR TOWN AND IF YOU NEED BETTER POLICE CARS ARE WHATEVER IT IS-THEY NEED IS WHERE THE MONEY GO AND SOME WHAT HOW IT IS SPENT. SO BY THE TIME IT GET TO YOU ITS NOTHING LEFT TO GIVE. THEN YOUR BACK TO WONDRING WHY YOU DIDN’T GET ANY MONEY OR HELP BECAUSE YOU WAS EITHER TURNED DOWN OR LIED TOO. YET YOU STILL VOTED TO PUT THIS (BUSH)MAN IN OFFICES FOR 8 YEARS AND NOW YOU JUST WANT THINGS FIXED-HOW IN THE HELL CAN THINGS BE FIXED OVER NIGHT OR EVEN MONTHS LATER WHEN YOU GOT ALL THE RED-TYPE TO GO THREW? SO HOW CAN YOU EXPECT CHANGE-WHEN YOUR GET’ING “QUESTION” AND SAYING ITS NOT GOING TO WORK AND KNOCKING EVERY FU*KING THING OUR BLACK PRESIDENT IS DOING? BECAUSE THATS WHAT ITS REALLY ABOUT WITH ALOT OF PEOPLE AND THE FACT THE CHECK DIDN’T COME…DO NOT BLAME PRESIDENT OBAMA BLAME EVERYBODY WHO TAKE PART IN HOW AMERICA IS RUN. SO I UNDERSTAND THAT-MOP HE IS TALKING ABOUT AND HE JUST GOT ONE ROOM CLEANED IN-ORDER FOR HIM TO MOP AND STILL ITS NOT FAST ENOUGH FOR SOME PEOPLE…THEY WANT THE HOLD HOUSE CLEANED IN AN HOUR-WHICH CAN’T BE DONE BY HISSELF. AND IF PRESIDENT OBAMA IS NOT DOING IT FAST ENOUGH THEN REP,DEM,CONG,COMMISSIONER-HELP HIM DO YOUR DAMN JOB…OR STEP BACK AND SUPPORT HIM,GIVE HIM AT LEAST THE 4 YEARS YOU GAVE ALL THE REST AND SEE WHERE THINGS GO. NOW THIS IS JUST MY OPINION ON THINGS.
