Can we admit that Obama has a really big stick?

Did you all catch this quote from the office of House Speaker and Erik Gloom ally John Boehner?

"I wonder if the White House has polled the phrase 'thinly veiled social Darwinism' - curious to know how that zinger turns the dials... I mean, I'm sure attacks citing 19th century botanists has resonance with some Americans..."

[Guy Incognito]

i would say more americans are aware darwin existed than those who know he was a botanist

Erik Gloom ally John Boehner?

[arushofwings]

so rather than deny that it's social darwinism he calls americans too stupid to understand it. good one, john.

[VHGisdead]

My fellow Americans, do you really want to reelect a man whose attacks on my party would receive lukewarm responses from a focus group of rubes?

[Amblin]

Actually the quote was from his spokesman, but still.

And Nathan let me apologize for that crack. Heat of the moment.

Did he really say "19th century botanists"?

After seeing Obama's speech, I was surprised to find the topic title changed

That's because Erik Gloom, who suffers from an acute case of Florida residency, controls this thread's title.

[Amblin]

Did you other Obamatards get your email from Jim Messina hinting that the campaign raised a trillion billion dollars in Q1 2012? Excited, despite Gloom's latest flip-flop bringing me down this morning.

[Jeremy]

Did they ever find Obama's gift certificate?

how do you get that figure...i saw they got 1.8 mil dif donors, but a trillion would mean they averaged 500 a person

[The Dirty Turtle]

oh i see you were not offering a serious number, my mistake

[Amblin]

Well I was exaggerating a bit, he did say Saturday was the largest single day of the campaign by number of donors.

[The Dirty Turtle]

well they sent like 400 emails leading up to that like PLEASE GIVE BY SATURDAY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

I'd honestly be impressed if someone bothered to change their cover picture to this, would have no idea what it means

I was glad Obama said Reagan wouldn't survive in today's GOP which is imo an effective barb I've not heard the President himself make

When you set it as your cover, it looks like they're all looking directly at your profile picture.

I know that for some reason a lot of Americans look back fondly on Reagan, but the fact that it's accurate to assert that Reagan's insurgent right-wing radical views wouldn't make it in today's Republican party is even more damning than it sounds.

it's actually literally impossible for this to not be the case
