    On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.

    Emanuel didn’t get the memo

    “know that you are on the wrong side of history, but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.”

    “Like this, boss?”

  8. Right on cue, Sky55110/RAP dashes in to piddle on the pages here at FA.

    Tell me Sky, do you ever take a break from lapping up the pablum fed to by your party?

    Have you ever, even once, tried to attempt any sort of independent thinking?

    @Aye Chihuahua:

    I looked at his comment and laughed, he seems to be in desperate mode. Is he needing to prove something to us or to himself?

    Another steak knife moment adds to the Emanuel legend.

    At whom was the gesture directed?

    This is sure to engender the respect of the U.S. that the left alleges we don’t have anymore from the rest of the world because of President Bush. (right!)

    So dignified, eh? Makes one proud of our new government. Not.

    More age, more gray, same Clintonista maturity.

    All kidding aside, this just shows what an utter lack of judgment he has, or more likely arrogance. On the grandest stage of American politics, knowing that the cameras are on him, and this is what we get.

    If my kindergartener made that gesture anywhere, he’d be in a world of trouble.

    And that’s exactly about the age he is acting like.

    True, indeed. I guess we’ll have to be the adults for the next four years.

    I knew Obama was bullshit when he hooked up with this jerk. A guy he should have thrown under the bus is driving it.

    Remember when George W. Bush was mocked for being a “hands-off” manager, as if that was the mark of an idiot, instead of a very respected style of leadership? You haven’t seen anything yet – this is a picture of the classy guy that is really running the Obama Presidency! Thanks, MSM! Enjoy your toy President… we sure as hell won’t.

    My comment:
    The thing that strikes me most about this picture is the little girl watching this example of high office and leadership so intently.

    And just think, these inept people are appointed to some of the highest offices in the land. This was about as tasteful as the Reverend who closed the inauguration ceremony with his racist poetry. The old saying remains true – “Money cannot buy class”!

    He needs to be careful where he sticks those fingers I heard he lost a finger on the other hand sticking it up his nose. His eye’s still bug out of his head a bit till this very day.
