The American Spectator

Succinctly, let me first say ROTFLMAO!

This is on par with the Windows 7 parties- the few that host such events be paid schills with the rest of us laughing at such hubris. No matter how gullible are, you still have to feel bad for the kool-aid drinkers.

The whole 'social media' and internet-organized backers' efforts were definitely a big hand for Obama in his election, but this smacks of the aforementioned tried-and-failed organized 'cool' event planning.

'Artificial,' 'trying too hard,' and 'pipe-dream' seem to be more apt descriptors than 'cool' in efforts like these.

What a relief! I've been desperately seeking to find a life since Tupperware died. Thanks to Obama, I've finally found people who will let me into their living rooms again. Maybe this time, instead of taking shots everytime we hear the word "hope" and double-shots at the word "change", we can all get tipsy as we toast "let me be clear" and "it's all Bush's fault" with double-shots when our brave new Socialist Overlord promises to keep "fighting." Maybe we'll all get drunk enough that they'll let me stay for more than an hour! Now, that's hope - that I'll get a life! Sincerely, Ellie Light

What's the over/under on # of I's in the State of the Union?

Lyle| 1.25.10 @ 8:37PM

Over/under on the I's ... can't be computed! A couple of guys tried it on the last speech - a shot of booze for every "I, Me, Mine" ... they all passed out after 3 minutes.

Franklin| 1.25.10 @ 9:12PM

I have this horrid, evil thought - just after he starts the speech, whenever he blames Bush, talks about what a wonderful job he's been doing, makes a stupid promise, etc., one Republican gets up and leaves. How long do you think it would be until all the Republicans (Independents and disgusted Democrates can join in, too) are gone?

"....in our march toward change. " I just don't like the ring of that phrase.

Catherine| 1.25.10 @ 9:37PM

""....in our march toward change. " I just don't like the ring of that phrase. "

I agree, Colleen, it sounds a little bit Mao-ish to me.

PCC| 1.25.10 @ 9:38PM

Sounds like a lot of fighting going on there.

XkarenX| 1.25.10 @ 10:06PM

Lyle's Ellie Light impersonation takes the cake, I mean "pie...sweet potato pie...coconut cream pie...lemon meringue pie...pie"! Sorry I'll have to miss the birkenstock wonderfulness of the OFA house parties and watch our dear leader with significant other at home. (My cute little brown shirt won't be back from the cleaners by Wednesday).

" ... We must regroup, refocus, and re-engage on the vital work ahead...."

Boy wonder exhortation to party members.

Yeah- let's all follow the lead of Thelma and Louise.

LOL.

Werbaz Neutron| 1.25.10 @ 10:30PM

I had a watch the Massachusetts returns party last week, invited all the democrats I knew in my neighborhood to watch on my TV. Today, some of my wife's silver is missing and we found somebody's dirty underwear in our bed when we went to bed.

Margie| 1.26.10 @ 12:16PM

LOL!!

David Pouffe:
"We've hit some serious bumps in the road recently in our march toward change."

Martha Coakley,
Jon Corzine,
Creigh Deeds,
Health care,
unemployment,
Just to name a few.

Some the ran over, some they tripped over.
In any event, let's show the right road:
OUT OF TOWN!

Blair| 1.25.10 @ 11:04PM

Watching paint dry would be time better spent.

Margie| 1.26.10 @ 12:19PM

Yeah at least you'd have a freshly painted room.

Diane Smith| 1.26.10 @ 12:30AM

Memo to Plouffe:

See if you can resurrect that old song, it would make great background music for the Straits of the Union message.

Someone's rockin' my dreamboat
Disturbin' a beautiful dream
We were sailin' along,
So peaceful and calm
Suddenly, somethin' went wrong.. . .

Inge| 1.26.10 @ 5:09AM

I can't believe Plouffe can write this bs with a straight face! The audicity, and lies are just mindboggling, and actually insulting to those of us who are not subscriving to the 'herd mentality'. That's so 1933!!!

RodgerS| 1.26.10 @ 6:29AM

Our fearless leader has resolved to do more of the same...shove horrible medicine down our throats to cure illnesses we don't have.

ChrisMeihass| 1.26.10 @ 8:08AM

This guy has nuttin' but "plouffe" between his ears...
What a moron.
"Now on to the oBama kumbaya jerk circle boyz and girlz..for some more hepenchange"...hahahahah.

j4140| 1.26.10 @ 8:18AM

Oh yes, I'll be heading to a community center in my neighborhood near me to see "The One" deliver yet another pontificating, dull, over-rated, teleprompter-driven speech. We'll play a drinking game - a shot after each time Obama says "I" and/or "me" or blames Bush. (UGH!) That "bump" in the road, BTW, is the will of the American people - it's not to be trifled with, sir.

Becky| 1.26.10 @ 8:40AM

I wonder if David will be dressed up in his old cheerleading outfit? What is the official cheer this year....."more of the same, Bush is to blame?"

They don't realize that their supporters have short attention spans and are already on their the bash Obama train.

Being a tea partier is cooler now than a hope and change tear jerker event. Tea party anger is more righteous sounding than the indignation the President seems to be dishing out. Everyone cheers for Davy, not Goliath. The president transformed from Davy to Golaiath a year ago, and doesn't seem to know it.

Jim Hlavac| 1.26.10 @ 9:13AM

Oh, yes, Plouffe - I'm organizing a watching party all right -- for I do love comedy. And every time Obama says some dumb or mush filled piffle we shall laugh our silly heads off. If I knew where an "approved" watching site would be perhaps I would go just to share the comedy. For laughter is worth a million bucks, and we are for sharing the wealth, sir. Hahahaha! There, that's my tax on the laughter that you levied.

Number Six| 1.26.10 @ 9:25AM

Hey Ploufe. Those things weren't speed bumps. The bumps were people that Obama has thrown under the bus.

Smurfmom| 1.26.10 @ 10:34AM

Don't forget to all shout out the Joe Wilson cheer, "You lie!"

I'm just so honored that Ellie Light actually moved once again to be able to comment here. What a gal!

Tim| 1.26.10 @ 10:41AM

Obama may yet roll out a few surprises in his speech, like maybe a back room deal to pass that blasted health bill.

Socialism - a pit stop on the way to communism...
