| Now, Obama is warning Syria about deadly violence |
| 2011-04-09 |
| I strongly condemn the abhorrent violence committed against peaceful protesters by the Syrian government today and over the past few weeks. I also condemn any use of violence by protesters. The United States extends our condolences to the families and loved ones of all the victims. I call upon the Syrian authorities to refrain from any further violence against peaceful protestors. Furthermore, the arbitrary arrests, detention and torture of prisoners that has been reported must end now, and the free flow of information must be permitted so that there can be independent verification of events on the ground. |

| #16 'zactly, SAM. If you're gonna get teh mud, might as well get down and dirty. McCain and his camp (helloooooo Lindsay!) were unable to understand Schumer Rules |

| #15 McCain and the Repubs were so deathly afraid of being labeled "raaacists!11!!" They were called Racists anyway. When you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't...the best policy is to leave scorched earth in your wake. Or something. |

| #13 1. O sez to Syrian govt to stop the violence in very strong words. Also condemns protester violence. 2. Syrian govt sez "" 3. Syrian protesters say "We'll be good." 4. Peace brakes out and there is a nation-wide group hug. 5. On to North Korea with the cue cards. Success. |

| #10 Much more disturbing is that the trunks cannot come up with another Gipper. The Trunks didn't "come up with" the Gipper. Reagan worked long and hard in the weeds to get where he was. The Republicans were more or less forced to accede because he had all the energy and momentum, and like Ms. Peggy Noonan, anyone who wants get ahead doesn't turn down a chance to jump on the bandwagon. |

| #9 Nor could the MSM find any of the women BJ Clinton had raped, though they were shouting about it from the rooftops. And when it finally came out they said so little no one cared. Sorry, B, these are not issues that will move the American people. Much more disturbing is that the trunks cannot come up with another Gipper. |

| #8 McCain and the Repubs were so deathly afraid of being labelled "raaacists!11!!" that they didn't do even minor-league opposition research or ops. There is no excuse now. Everyone knows the race card will be pulled first, so just hit him with everything: he's incompetent/ineffectual, not a leader, an America-hating socialist, hates our allies, loves our enemies, spends more time golfing and vacationing than any other President (when he's not trying to crush our energy policy and economy), is a liar, a demagogue, employs pro-black racist DOJ staff, employs anti-Joooo staff,.... |

| #7 Maybe a little off the topic of a warning to Pencil Neck. But, thinking about it a little more, one thing that makes it even more disturbing is that John McCain and the Republican Party didn't raise any of these issues either. Why not? |

| #6 Kind of following B's lead; when Bambi is turned out of office and becomes a Regular Joe, will he be able to get a passport? I had to send in a certified copy of my birth certificate. Or does his Exhalted Status allow all that paperwork crap to be waived? |

| #4 Obama's warnings..... PLEEEEEASE! Isn't it amazing that, within only one week of Tiger Woods crashing his Escalade, the press found every woman with whom Tiger has had an affair during the last few years? And, they even uncovered photos, text messages, recorded phone calls, etc.! Furthermore, they not only know the cause of the family fight, but they even know it was a wedge from his golf bag that his wife used to break out the windows in the Escalade. Not only that, they know which wedge! And, each & every day, they were able to continue to provide America with updates on Tiger's sex rehab stay, his wife's plans for divorce, as well as the dates & tournaments in which he will play. Now, Obama has been in office for a year-and-a-half, yet this very same press: * Cannot find any of his childhood friends or neighbors; * Or find any of Obama's high school or college classmates; * Or locate any of his college papers or grades; * Or determine how he paid for both a Columbia & a Harvard education; * Or discover which country issued his visa to travel to Pakistan in the 1980's; * Or even find Michelle Obama's Princeton thesis on racism. They just can't seem to uncover any of this. Yet, the public still trusts that same press to give them the whole true story.... |
