Oh, stop blaming Obama.

The first time I ever got on an airliner, I was going to spend the summer with my older brother. No way I was going without my most prized possession:

Yeah, it was a piece of crap. But it was MY piece of crap and I loved it.

And it wasn't riding in the baggage compartment, either. I brought it right on the plane with me.

Wanna know what happened? A stew smiled and asked if she could put that in a closet for me.

Yeah, I'm a little nostalgic about that.

But that was then. Now, I'd probably have been proned in the parking lot and carried off to God knows where.

Obama didn't do that. Oh, he loves it and he's made it worse. But he didn't do it.

For the rest of the year, we're going to hear weeping and wailing, gnashing of teeth and tearing of hair over the impending second term of the Big O. The GOP has done it again and will soon nominate the latest shitpoke whose "turn" it is...

Mitt the Wonder Romney!

His hair alone can conquer galaxies, and I'm pretty sure Marie Osmond is going to want her teeth back after the election. But Obama will probably bury him. The incumbent usually does, unless the opposition gives voters a better reason not than wonder-boy here. And even if he wins, so what? You think Mitt (RomneyCare) Romney will really keep his empty promise to repeal ObamaCare? Right. Right after Reagan disbands the DOE. No, you'll spend your time more effectively looking for a GP who takes cash under the table. When OCare kicks in, they won't be rare. Doctors gotta eat, too.

See, the most amusing thing about Obama is that his first-term slogan,

OBAMA! HE'S NO WORSE THAN BUSH!

is largely correct.

HERESY! I hear the conservatives screech. TO THE STAKE WITH THE UNBELIEVER!

Really? Name one original thing - other than OCare, which I concede - that Obama has done to take your freedom away. No, I said original.

NDAA? Tell it to Jose Padillo.
Signing statements? He's got a long way to go to beat Bush's record there.
Executive orders? C'mon.
"Free Speech Zones?" Again, Bush.
Didn't close Gitmo? Who opened it?
Drone wars? Bush.
"Economic Stimulus?" TARP.
Eric Holder? John Ashcroft.

Have things gotten worse under Obama? Sure they have. I'm not here to praise Obama. If Mitt Romney's Hair wins the election, things will get even worse under him. Just like when Dubya replaced Clinton - Surprise! - things got worse.

Actually, back then they got much worse. And he was the one who was going to save us from Gore, who was billed as nothing more than Clinton Jr.

Now I'm listening to radio gasbags losing sphincter control over Obama's gaffe with the live mike in Russia. Did he really say anything you didn't know? Presidents always go nuts in their second terms. Politicians love it when they don't have to run for office anymore. It means they can stop lying for a while and just express their inner psychopath.

It's not the president. It's not the president's party affiliation. IT NEVER MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE.

Who picks the candidates? Who votes for them, and who pretends they're important?

Look at these shitheads. Obama, Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, whoever. Is there a single one of them - Okay, Ron Paul did surprise me, I admit it, but he sure won't be the nominee - that you'd allow to watch your dogs while you're on vacation?

And one of them is about to be declared the "leader of the free world." Sheesh.

Left wing; Right wing - same stinking carrion bird in between.
