My God.  If you only had the slightest idea what you were actually saying.  May you never end up in a nation without them.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Obvious?&lt;/p&gt;

The concept that the only objective criteria for deciding the qualificiations, effectiveness, ability, and above all, ideology, of a president is how long he&#039;s been in office?  That was &quot;obvious?&quot;

Again, did you vote for Reagan in 1984?  Bush in 2004?  If you didn&#039;t, there must have been reasons, and you just blew your own premise out of the water.

And what have the Democrats been running on?  Free birth control.  Dogs on car roofs.  Teenage haircuts.  </description>

		<description>I said objective criteria.  Everything else cannot be determined ahead of time. It&#039;s strictly a matter of opinion.  You cannot bear to admit that Obama actually has almost four years of experience in the White House.  You may have convinced yourself that experince is worthless, but your task is to convince enough other people its worthless.  Hell, you can&#039;t even convince me.

And you don&#039;t think you can do it.  That&#039;s why we have birthers, and antibirthers, and socialsim, and Rev Wright, and the rest of the gargonzola.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Holy cats, you managed to top yourself.&lt;/p&gt;

By that idiotic criteria, a ten-year employee who blows up the manufacturing plant is better qualified than a two-year employee who raised production by ten percent.

Oh, wait.  That&#039;s how liberals think, isn&#039;t it? &quot;Seniority over all.&quot;

Sorry.  Voters are going to be looking at how he did, not how long his ass was in the chair.

Think it over.  In all the elections you voted in, did you back the incumbent?</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Okay.&lt;/p&gt;

Obama never gave her any biographical information.  It came out of subspace.

Sixteen years of &quot;born in Kenya,&quot; and Obama never read his own publicity blurb until somehow, just before he decided to run for president.  Neither did any of his friends, political handlers, family, or co-workers.

Guess you win.

		<description>She mentioned also the father was Kenyan in the following sentence.  Perhaps she got her info mixed up?  YOU THINK???

She wasn&#039;t even an agent at the time, she was an agent&#039;s assistant.  AND SHE SAID OBAMA NEVER CONTACTED HER AT ANY TIME. WTF else do you want?  

The right can keep pulling this garbage out of their collective asses because it sure isn&#039;t coming out of their brains.</description>

		<description>You are obviously not thinking out of the box. This is not a trick question.

Only 4 men in the world are, objectively, better qualified than Barack Obama to be President.  This is not somebody&#039;s opinion, it is based on a valid, objectively verifiable criterion: experience on the job.

Jimmy Carter - 4 years
George HW Bush - 4 years
Bill Clinton - 8 years
George W Bush - 8 years.

Barack Obama only has 3.5 years of experience.

All other criteria are subjective.

		<description>&lt;p&gt;The media will forget the Democratic &quot;blips.&quot;  Not Republican ones.&lt;/p&gt;

Remember the point:

What Obama does or did is not important.

What Mitt did in high school, and I quote, &quot;matters.&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;You&#039;re working at the agency. Sitting at the typewriter.  Explain how you make that &quot;mistake.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

If you had actually processed the original post, this comment would not have been necessary.</description>
