Five bucks says that if this cartoon had come out ten years ago and featured Dubya instead of Obama, base would see nothing funny about it. In fact, he'd see it as treasonous, liberal and un-American.
None of which, of course, addresses the problems with constitutionality that Obama has. Not pretending those don't exist, like base probably did with Dubya, Cheney and the rest of the fear-pimps that drive his political philosophy.
I didn't know Obama changed the Constitution...when did he do that?
Or is this something that passes for humor in tea party land?
the interesting thing about the far right is the ability to recognize obama as a clueless boob who is befuddled by his job that he lucked into and at the very same time, be a devious dictator commie socialist sleeper agent who is undermining the american way of life thru his evil brilliance.....
an example...
couse cod blames obama for his 'roids...
gotta love the local boards....idjits r us
"The second and far bigger point is that Barack Obama is weak internationally by choice. At home he’s amassing immense, unprecedented powers over the economy. If Congress won’t pass one of his desired pieces of legislation, he’ll try to achieve his ends through decrees, a.k.a. executive orders, or unprecedented and sweeping regulatory rulings. The niceties of the law have never stopped this White House from doing what it desires. The Obama Administration routinely ignores adverse court rulings. Brazenly lying to the public is no barrier, as the President’s oft-repeated pledge that people could, if they wished, keep their health insurance policies and doctors demonstrates. From the get-go ObamaCare wanted to destroy the market for individual medical-care policies and to obliterate the practices of sole medical practitioners. Hardcore socialists have long understood that it’s much easier to regulate people when they’re herded into collectives."
this goes to the matter of the belief in 'executive orders' and the claim that obama has signed so many more than previous presidents etc etc...
