#7 Part of growing up is reaching the age to vote, purchase tobacco, alcohol, enter certain venues like nightclubs.

Mr. President, or any ACA pusher within keyboard shot, should part of growing up having people legally identified as adults for said activities in the manner of obamacare. That is, no voting, selective service, enter nightclubs, and so forth until the age of 26 (or whatever it is at the moment)?

#8 Part of growning up is 'Putting away childish things'. Such of belief in the tooth fairy, Santa Clause.

As well as taking on (you liberals out there please excuse my foul language) Adult Responsibility - such as being responsible for your own welfare, providing yourself food and shelter and healthcare.

#9 There was a time when serving your country was a part of growing up.

#10 I guess I'll change my name to Peter Pan. I'll NEVER grow up.

#11 Heck seeing things bigger and greater than yourself is part of growning up. That being your country, your family, your church, your work, etc...

People like John Kerry and Obama just can't conceive, for example, that people would choose to join and serve something like the military or serve their country, or their church, etc... Obama doesn't serve as president - he rules as president (or he believes he does...).

#12 Charles Barkley et al.

The execution of the Obama domestic policy is based upon the movie Meet the Spartans. You are one of the gags.

#14 What does Barkley have to do with healthcare anyway? His job, in his own words, is to cause as much devastation on the basketball court as possible.

#16 Its not an interview, its an infomercial. Its on TNT with Barkley so it is aimed at middle to elder people who still watch pro basketball, a la pajama boy was for hipsters. In the context of the script its dad and grandpa having The Talk with the kiddos, how kids don't take care of themselves, how its true that those old injuries creep up in the cold, how prunes really do help...ok made that up, but that is the point.

The kids today talk LaBron James, Kevin Griffon. To them, this might as well be a couple old farts in the park talking about pudding. Barkley gets another feather in his cap, Barry gets to play celebrity and as such Barkley is actually a prop; a high impact prop among a certain demographic but a prop nonetheless - notice he uses the intimate nickname Chuck, conveys insider clic, its a gimmick. Or in a number of years, a gag.

Its putting a big ole smile on Sign by 3/31 or else.
