I respect what you know about lots of stuff, and opinions are . . .
opinions, but pleeeeze do not expect to have any cred whatsoever on
your unchanged and unreconstructed opinions on where the country ought
to be politically, or how we got here, or why Obama is a piece of
****. It just does not wash.

Yeah, and it smells bad too. ;-) Rick's ridiculous notions about
Obama remind me of a classic line from Casablanca, (well, truth
is *all* the lines from Casablanca are classics).

Major rdean Strasser: You give him credit for too much cleverness.
My impression was that he's just another blundering American.

Captain Ken Renault: We musn't underestimate "American blundering".
I was with them when they "blundered" into Berlin in 1918.

Rick has it in his head that Obama is some sort of amateur politician
who blunders along from mistake to mistake. Nothing could be further
from the truth. Obama is a skilled, savvy, professional politician
surrounded by a cast of smart, pragmatic, highly experienced political
veterans.

Geez, you two are like Izzy Mandelbaum and his daddy...except without a crepery
or a pan...

HTH,
