Hey this Rush vs. Riffy game, can anyone play?
ABSOLUTELY! It's all-inclusive, big-tent fun for
the whole family.

Or is it just bitter libs that can't muster even the lamest of arguments in support of their idiotic Prez so they decided to bust on Riffy instead?
Just curious.
What do We "libs" have to be bitter about? We got an honest-to-God socialist / Marxist / Muslim / Negro / bomb-throwing anarchist elected to the Presidency! We're putting a reverse-racist Latina activist judge in the Supreme Court! We got communist comedian Al Frankenstein in the senate! Yay! Next up: Wavy Gravy for Secretary of Good Vibes!

No, Mr. Nankerphelge, I'm afraid the only ones who sound bitter are you, with your cut & paste
articles about how Joe Biden made an oopsy, Mr. Glencar with his obsessive distaste for the
First Lady and even the Obama children, and, pre-eminently, Mr. Riffhard with his whole schtick.
Someone should tell him that yelling and swearing so much will not only raise his blood pressure
to dangerous levels, it also makes him sound DESPERATELY bitter.

As far as arguing with you guys, why would we bother?
Let Me clue you in, Mr. Nankerphelge. One reason none of us "drones" argue with you is because we aren't drones. We don't necessarily agree with everything the President says or does. We voted for him NOT because We thought he was some sort of "Messiah" or because we expected to agree with everything he does. We had the choice of John McCain/Sarah Palin or Obama/Biden, and we made what we saw as the only intelligent choice. I personally believe that, despite the President's naturally declining approval ratings, if the election was held AGAIN today, it would come out the same.

Obama doesn't need to be perfect - like Me, for example. You seem to be comparing him to some perfect politician, one who pleases everyone and never makes a bad move. That guy was not on the ballot. So as long as Mr. Obama is doing better than Mr. Bush did (duh), or what Mr. McCain was likely to do (bomb bomb bomb Iran, perhaps? ""The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should. I've got Greenspan's book." ETC), and as long as poor old Joe Biden isn't as absurdly unready for any office as Sarah Palin, or as unprincipled and downright EVIL as Dick Cheney, then most of us are willing to forgive some gaffes and see how things go.
An example: Mr. Glencar repeatedly harping on Mr. Obama's mention of the "Austrian language", or calling Putin the President of Russia instead of Prime Minister. PLEASE. Bush made mistakes bigger than that before breakfast. He made verbal gaffes which got Americans KILLED ("Bring 'em on.") There are websites FULL of his verbal stupidity. Mr. McCain, for his part, appeared ready to break off relations with Spain and to think it was a country in this hemisphere.
It's not like everyone runs from the superior logic of your "arguments" and "attacks" Mr. Riffhard "instead". Mr. Riffhard's arguments were all discussed and discounted by the electorate last fall. Just because he wants to rehash them all and scream obscenities at us about William Ayers or Saul Alinsky doesn't mean any of us needs to keep a straight face while he's doing it.
