Re: ObamaRama 8

Slightly off-topic, but like her or not - you have to appreciate that Palin can dish it as well as take it:

Re: ObamaRama 8

Her teleprompter reading skills have grown. :p I do think her SNL appearance was better, really showed off her range.

Or she could be using one of the president's tele-prompters, without which he's evidently mute.
 
Re: ObamaRama 8

What does Obama have to do with Sarah Palin's skit? Oh you just wanted to take a shot...carry on.
Silence is better than whatever this was.

yes, because before Obama, no other president in the history of the United States ever, ever, used a teleprompter.

This is about the dumbest of the dumb attack screeds that have come from conservative talk radio about Obama, and it just makes me shake my head that someone who's supposedly inteligent and well informed would even attempt to make some kind of issue about it.

But carry on, Old Pio. We're not laughing with you, we're laughing at you.

Every time Bammer goes off script, he says something dumb. At least our last President didn't need to do that to do the same.;)

Well it is hard to go off script when you can't read the script :p

Listening to him talk I always figured he had an earwig and someone was dictating for him and he was repeating ...like in the movie Roxanne! Every so often the signals would get crossed and he would ad lib and hilarity ensues! :D I havent figured out Obama yet...I sort of hope he will go Don King on the bit at some point :)

I have a feeling next up will be some fake famous person or a reality show fake will be president...maybe a talk show host! :eek:
 
Re: ObamaRama 8

:confused: Why is banks paying back the TARP a bad thing?

It's not. However, it was a powerful lever to hold over lenders to force them to participate in the O-man's various programs to limit comp, modify mortgages, open up small business lending, etc. Without that leverage he may have to *gasp* actually push legislation through Congress, since these guys have serious incentives to tell him to f* off now.

They'll tell him to blank off. No doubt. And with the Congress having digressed completely into non-functional mode with Joe Lieberman being the most powerful man in America, and Chris Dodd being the fox manning the chicken coop I don't see any meaningful bank legislation coming down the pike.
 
Re: ObamaRama 8

I think the righties would rather have the banks keep the money than have Obama spend it rather than paying down the debt. :D

Scott has it right...the second they pay back the funds it is back to business as usual. (or worse, they just cut off lending completely and keep the money in the vault thanks to the awesomely low interest rates) Of course I think that is what Obama truly wants...he wants to be able to find BS reasons to blame the banks so he has that to point to come the next election.

Trust Barney Frank and Chris Dodd...I thought Obama was some sort of genius? Who would have thought Rolling Stone and the Wall Street Journal would be on the same side...apparently Obama is able to unify the nation...righties and lefties hate this guy! ;)

Read an Op-Ed today that highlights the fact that every time we have deregulated something about the banking system it has collapsed. SNL being the first.

We should have left FDR's work alone.
