A lot of things come with expiration dates these days. Manufactures of nearly all foods and medicines are required to give a sell by date or date when the products ought to be discarded.
You know what doesn’t come an expiration date – well at least for P-BO, Joy Bahar and some of the Lamestreamers? Blaming Bush.
Nearly a year and a half into destroying the country, these weaklings use Bush to defend their incompetence, cover their own mistakes and defend the indefensible.
“Boy Mr. President, you sure did look like a girl throwing out that first pitch two years in a row.”
“Yeah well, George Bush made me do it. I have so much on mind that he fowled up I couldn’t get devastating hall of fame split-finger fast ball over the plate.”
"Over the plate? Hell Mr. President, you couldn’t get it TO THE PLATE…on two throws, if you started the second throw from where the first one hit”
So in some bizarro interview yesterday, P-BO blamed Bush, blamed BP, blamed the culture at MMS all while accepting responsibility for the on-going oil spill disaster. Too weird.
Its like one of those Pol apologies we hear from time to time. “I’m sorry if my comment about white, Christian, heterosexual men with jobs being the scum of the Earth offended anyone.” That’s not really an apology. The offensive remark was never apologized for only if someone was offended.
Well we need the FDA to slap an expiration date on blaming Bush. At some point P-BO need to man up and say, “Well yeah, 3 ½ years into my administration, this one’s finally on me.”
Memorial Day
See the Griffin’s comment to yesterday’s post. I think we sort of agree. Until P-BO starts to act presidential he should stay the hell away from Arlington. But he won’t be acting presidential until he goes.
Memorial Day Tribute
On June 1, 1865, Senator Charles Sumner commented on what is now considered the most famous speech by President Abraham Lincoln. In his eulogy on the slain president, he called it a "monumental act." He said Lincoln was mistaken that "the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here." Rather, the Bostonian remarked, "The world noted at once what he said, and will never cease to remember it. The battle itself was less important than the speech."
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
