I hope that someone hacks into the Obameister’s Blackberry. Maybe it will convince him to leave the toys at home.

well pple say obama was voted into office mostly due to his “change” promise. well how many days has he been in office now and so far there has been no change. there is still a black man(obama) living in government housing(the whitehouse) and tax payers dollars are still paying for his medical. hmmmm, where`s the change?

Re: US-Israel alliance
The question really boils down to, “Will the US survive until the administration takes office four years from now?

Historian:
What do you think? The US-Israeli Alliance is dead. The BS that Obama fed the Israelis is just like everything else he contrives. It was a lie. The man is a calculated lying deceiver. He fancies himself as clever and inscrutable without realizing that many of us see him exactly as he is.
The Israelis better realize they are on their own and to keep their security -intelligence links to Obamas administration well pruned.

@Amused, you’re the second clueless commenter I’ve seen at this site who hasn’t the slightest idea what the “sour grapes” idiom means (David S was the first – I’m sure others will follow). Sour grapes is the (typically) irrational, post-facto criticism of some previously desired ideal, i.e., denial of its desirability after that ideal turns out to have been unattainable. You can thank Public Education – currently the product of some 30-odd years of collectivist, constructivist hokum – for your ignorance.

The idiom you’re actually looking for is “sore losers”, which doesn’t apply here. For an example, you only need to look back at the collective left’s reaction to Al Gore’s failure to carry his own home state in the 2000 Election. In response to that failure, the sore losers in politics, in academia, in the entrenched media, and on the street have spent every waking moment of the last eight years lying about Bush, his administration, the economy, the Middle East, capitalism, conservatives and even themselves – all aimed at one goal: getting back control of the government that they are convinced is “rightly” theirs. BHO’s election was nothing more than an irrational reaction to these sore losers’ overwhelming and negative impact on our society. Thus, the euphoric “relief” for so many angst-ridden souls upon his inauguration.

Ironically, although you clearly won’t recognize it as such, that euphoria is a sign that you’re very likely about to get a lesson in the true meaning of the “sour grapes” idiom – uncritically invested as you and your ilk are in all of BHO’s rhetoric, promises – and worst of all – the utterly fantastical expectations inspired by his teleprompted charisma. It’ll be a show well worth watching.

I hear Barack was addressed as “Your Emptiness” and “His Emptiness”.
He is a true representative of the juveniles whom voted and campaigned for him.

While he’s at it, the new POTUS could also write a letter to SCOTUS justice Clarence Thomas re a few of the “cute” things he and the new FLOTUS said about His Honor during the campaign. Just politics, you know.

I say write a letter because I somehow can’t see our new President actually apologizing face to face. Not his style, at all. Much like Bill, and Jimmy.

It’s funny watching all you right wing death beasts claiming that the grapes were sour. Suck it up losers.
