Because the price of gas just dropped half a dollar a gallon at the COSTCO in my neighborhood. Welcome to my world!



BEWARE! You are close to entering the Big Bad Barack Obama Group, or as residents call it, the BOG. It is a SAFE HAVEN for those who CELEBRATE the policies and achievements of President Barack Hussein Obama.

This is you last chance to escape the Borg of the BOG, or Obamanista Collective. Resistance is Futile here. If you are not willing to be absorbed, click fast to get away and have a nice day.

P. S. I am not in charge here, fortunately. My super powers exist solely within the twilight zone of internet paranoia and my delusions of grandeur. What, you don't have any?

	I blame Obama when I run out of coffee creamer. He probably drinks his black, and that\'s what\'s wrong with him. Obama haters drink too much coffee and act like hyperventilating chihuahuas.

	I thank my lucky stars to wake up on Planet Earth when the Sun rises in the morning but only think of Obama when I visit DU. IrishAyes goes to sleep with an Obama lullaby every night. Well, not really, but she knows I love her.

	Obama is the best president of my lifetime. My greatest regret is that he\'s not running again.

	OP writer is an imperialist, statist, running dog counterrevolutionary lackey that happens to love socialism, or an Obamabot. Give your excuse for being here below.

	Obama is the reason we get coconut milk in grocery stores. No, this is not an OREO joke. And what\'s wrong with coconuts and OREOs, anyway?

	This nation is being overrun by Kenyans. Or Hawaiians. Or Something. After millenia of dinosaurs overrun by natives overrun by Europeans. We shall overcome Chick-fil-A and the GOP.

	Obama has made my life better, but not in the monetary sense. If your life sucks, you may be a Bagger or Libertarian and not know it. Sorry for your loss.

1. The bolded text is really funny, in my opinion. nt

[freshwest]

19. Thank you, kind sir. Or lady. Or cat. Or zombie. Or all of those.

[Politicalboi]

2. Just had too

[giftedgirl77]

3. Kudos on the coconut milk comment.

I'm from Miami & have been referred to as a coconut on more than 1 occasion & love my coconut milk.

[freshwest]

5. I love coconut milk myself! OREOs not so much, they don't agree with my digestion.

I use coconut milk instead of dairy milk usually. It's a wonderful gift from nature.

[Cha]

6. Yeah, that was funny.. lol I'm on

Kaua'i and we do love our coconut everything!

[Cha]

4. I blame Obama for a lot of things too, fresh.. and one of them is..

http://theobamadiary.com/

LOL at your poll.. I chose two 'cause it was the closest to what I wanted.. but, in reality, I'm actually glad Pres Obama gets to have a life after he leaves office. He's done, doing, and will do so much for our Country and many of us personally that I'm thinking the next phase of his life will be spectacular.. just not in the White House.

7. Indeed! On October 1st, tens of millions of Americans will get the chance for affordable healthcare.

Being told, but having a hard time believing it, that I'll qualify without an extra premium. Which I can't afford after years of being frozen out of it.

The exchanges are being pushed heavily in my state, and it has helped our state budget funds. It's good for us overall.

As far as what he's done, if I was religious, I'd go with the belief that when his life is done, he will receive many 'crowns in Heaven' for standing firm for 'the least of these.'

[Cha]

8. Amen sistah..

not religious either. .. but that works.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

9. :)

[freshwest]

14. Hey ya! Hope things are going well for you.

[greatauntoftriplets]

10. I'm one of them!

Farewell to COBRA! My preexisting conditions will be "legal".

[freshwest]

11. Good for you, and so many others! And pre-existing conditions are part of life. Denying was wrong.

[greatauntoftriplets]

12. Thanks, freshwest.

I'll be eligible for a government subsidy, too.

[freshwest]

13. That's what I'm being told now, too, I just can't believe it. I never did before.

[greatauntoftriplets]

15. It's great, isn't it?

[freshwest]

16. And I'm very grateful. I supported it when I thought I wouldn't be helped, for the future of others.

[sheshe2]

52. Oh what wonderful news for you, freshwest!

Now that is change everyone can believe in!

[grantcart]

17. Well there is that whole "why can't you be as good a husband/father" look I get whenever

Mrs. grantcart sees him in action.

He could forget a birthday or an anniversary or something and help us out, if ya know what I mean.

[freshwest]

18. Also, you must prove that you can body surf just as well. Sorry:

[Hekate]

45. Arrrh, do I love that photo. I have it on a coffee mug, I love it so much.

But in your poll I still chose Michelle kickin' A.

Obamanista Hekate

[freshwest]

47. Where'd you get the mug? I'd love one like that. Obamanista freshwest reporting here!

[Hekate]

49. It says Hawaiian Style, and I got it on Cafe Press.com...

Over a period of several years -- I couldn't seem to help myself! -- I also got one with "Obama Ohana" on it, and a spam musubi bento. Then one with a class photo of cute local kids that says "Hawaii USA 1972--Could you have predicted which one would become president?" These were all at Cafe Press, and probably still are. You have to search through a lot of dreck to find just the right thing, but for me it was worth it because I knew what I wanted.

The last one has the birth cert on one side and a pic of the prez on the other with "Made in USA" -- that one I got from the Dem Party.

BOG fohevah!

[Cha]

20. Be more

human in that dept?

He forgot to salute a Marine once and went right back down to do it and shook his hand. Bet he had some great words for the Marine, too. But, he still got lambasted for that.. come to think of it.. PBO has to be perfect!

[sheshe2]

22. In pictures~

Awesome freshwest!

[sheshe2]

27. Glad I could do that for you~

I am still unwinding a bit from work, gruesome day.

I will retire at a decent time. Need a DU fix first.

The Prez tips the scale for me~

[url=http://postimage.org/][img][/img][/url]

LOL.... freshwest.

[freshwest]

28. That looks like a Norman Rockwell moment there.

[freshwest]

50. People know Obama Cares:

People prepared to greet PBO for his vacation on Martha's Vineyard. Wish I was there...

[sheshe2]

51. Obama Cares

Get It~Got It~Good~

Woo Hoo!

What a great picture!

I wish I had the time...and today, the energy to hop on the ferry to the Vineyard! Gawd that would be fabulous, freshwest!

[orpupilofnature57]

26. I battle with Chihauhau syndrome myself, not President Obama

Shrub had a chip on his shoulder, and that's who I blame for history, post 2000

[freshwest]

29. Michelle for those who want her to...

[Hekate]

46. That is a breathtaking bit of wish-fulfillment photoshop worthy of a round of applause

[freshwest]

48. It definitely pulls it all together. I love that look. I've wanted to give that one so many times!

[bravenak]

30. Thanks Obama!

Not sarcastically either.

[freshwest]

39. Thank you, bravenak. Come by and see us more often!

[bravenak]

42. You have a nice place here.

Great atmosphere!

[Common Sense Party]

33. What the hell is wrong with your apostrophe key??? /'/'/'/'/'/'/'/'/'/' ???

[freshwest]

34. It's something that occurs with Polls, not anywhere else.

Example 1:

I'm not that interested in people that don't care about long-term results.

Example 2:

Team Obama/Biden has done a great job for America.



AFAIK, nothing the hell is wrong with my apostrophe key. It's the Poll.

And it only shows up when posted. I used to go back and edit to eliminate it by rewording the apostrophed text.

However, I'm among friends here and don't worry about it.

Please post a poll and let me know how contractions can be used without getting that slash.

[Politicub]

36. I blame Obama for forward slashes ///

I demand he fix it now or I'm going to hold my breath until I turn red, pass out at the voting booth and inadvertently vote for Ron Paul with my face.

[freshwest]

37. Yes, one would have to braindead to vote for him. Don't do it, look away, quick!

Save yourself and the nation.

[Cha]

40. Where the hell are your manners? All you need to know is that

this is Group for members and that was CLEARLY posted in the OP.

There's lot of forums for your WTFs. Just not here.

[freshwest]

43. Yes, he littered on the thread. Didn't rec or answer the poll, either. EPIC FAIL.

[Cha]

44. Awesome Gene Wilder grahpic, fresh!

Littered, but kinda funny, too. You have this great funny poll goin' on and somene pops in and seriously asks you about commas. I still don't know wtf he was whining about, and I don't care.

[Politicub]

35. How dare he! I blame Obama

for making my life better and removing the fear of losing my insurance coverage because I have high blood pressure. The nerve!

[freshwest]

38. Yes, indeed, the absolute nerve of *that man*!

FDR was also referred to as *that man*.

As we all know, there were problems:

The Business Plot...

How did that work out?

...A good rule of thumb: never trust a man named Smedley to run your hostile military coup for you. Besides being no fan of fascism, Smedley Butler was both a patriot and a vocal FDR supporter. Apparently none of these criminal masterminds noticed that their prospective point man had actively stumped for FDR in 1932.

Smedley spilled the beans to a congressional committee in 1934. Everyone he accused of being a conspirator vehemently denied it, and none of them were brought up on criminal charges. Still, the House McCormack-Dickstein Committee did at least acknowledge the existence of the conspiracy, which ended up never getting past the initial planning stages.

Though many of the people who had allegedly backed the Business Plot also maintained financial ties with Nazi Germany up through America's entry into World War II. But at least the United States never ended up becoming a fascist dictatorship (unless you ask Ron Paul supporters).



The lesson here? Fascist or not, you don't fuck around with guys named Smedley or Dickstein.

[Politicub]

41. Not only do you not f- with Smedley, but you never

f- with the lords of hell!

Unless you're the babysitter.

[Grateful for Hope]

53. I voted -not sure if I can be considered a member of the BOG, though

I subscribe to this group and I read it, but I don't tend to post much anywhere these days.

I voted that Obama is the best president of my lifetime, and this is saying a lot as I am not young. I remember Kennedy (I was in junior high when he was assassinated), and I would have said that he was the best president before this presidency.

I don't agree with some of his decisions, but I do think he does what he feels is right.

[freshwest]

54. Thanks! Welcome to the BOG!

[sheshe2]

57. BOG!

Excellent thread freshwest!

Thank you!

[mimi85]

55. Sounds like me!

I just discovered this group. The Snowden BS is really getting me down. There sure are some pitbulls around here - especially in the GD. I voted in our little poll also. Same thing with JFK, although I was a freshman in high school. Remember teachers crying and watching our b&w TV. The broadcast was in b&w anyway.

One of my grandsons is biracial and was here on election night in 2008. The three of us (Pa, Mimi and Scott) were all in tears. Ok, they were misty eyed, I was outright sobbing.

One of the best nights of my life. Little did I know what was to come. So much good* (caution swear word below), with so much crap like the Tea Party, BP, Japan, mass shootings, Trayvon, Gabby, etc - all PBO's fault of course.

Yep, our man could walk on water and he'd get blamed for getting government socks wet! http://whatthefuckhasobamadonesofar.com

[ucrdem]

56. On top of that, childhood obesity rates have fallen between 2008 and 2011

in 19 states, according to the CDC:

Nineteen of the states and the U.S. Virgin Islands saw a small but significant decline in preschoolers' obesity rates between 2008 and 2011, according to the CDC.

Thanks, Obamas!

[JustAnotherGen]

58. I think

You should do a new one of these every Saturday morning! I keep coming back to it because it flat out makes me feel good!
