My guess is that they are broke and divorced within 5 years. MoTHUG can't stop spending like crazy and he probably wants to go to the bath houses again.

oh brother...here we go again...baseless threads with no facts and no basis..just an attack on the Obamas

yes, seriously.
this is the kind of bullshit personal attacks on Obama (fill in any politician he doesn't like on any given day) and I could mirror the exact same language in his post and direct it back at him and it would violate your rule

yes, seriously.

THe POTUS makes a historic trip to Myanmar and 333 uses it as an excuse to create a thread to smear the POTUS with his usual bullshit which includes smearing the first lady with a derogatory nickname and suggesting the POTUS is gay and that's a perfectly acceptable thread on the "new" politics and political issues" board?

That looks awkward. Is it an actual picture caught in an awkward angle and time or is it 'shopped?

Yep. You are getting it now. :)
In other words, you can say Romeny is a piece of crap. But you can't attack another poster in the same way calling him names, insulting him etc.
If Obama was a poster on this board he would have to follow the same rules and others would not be able to personally attack him using name calling and insults.
So if you are Obama, have the FBI give me a call. ;)
PS: should we censor the rest of the world to from attacking OB? Should we burn them at the stake if they make cartoons that attack or make fun of him?

Obama Repeatedly Mispronounces Aung San Suu Kyi
White House Dossier ^ | November 19, 2012 | Keith Koffler
Posted on Monday, November 19, 2012 11:37:11 AM
During his stop in Burma earlier today, President Obama repeatedly mispronounced the name of Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel laureate and former political prisoner who has led the struggle for a free and democratic Burma.,P.
From the Associated Press:
As Obama stood next to the world’s most recognized democracy icon, he mispronounced her name repeatedly.
Ever gracious, Suu Kyi did not correct her American guest for calling her Aung YAN Suu Kyi multiple times during his statement to reporters after their meeting.
Proper pronunciation for the Nobel laureate’s name is Ahng Sahn Soo Chee.
What’s more, Obama also botched the name of his official host, Burma’s reformist new president, Thein Sein.

Not directly, but let's not be fooled that it wasn't the message they wanted out there.
Deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter laid out the issue as the Obama team sees it: “Either Mitt Romney, through his own words and his own signature, was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the SEC, which is a felony."

Stephanie Cutter Clarifies Her Comment For Wolf Blitzer: Romney Is A Liar, Not A Felon
Videoby Alex Alvarez | 5:25 pm, July 16th, 2012
» 197 comments On Monday, The Situation Room host Wolf Blitzer spoke with Stephenie Cutter, the Obama staffer who made headlines after floating the possibility that Mitt Romney is either a liar or a felon when it comes to explaining his timeline at Bain.
The show aired a clip of Cutter’s comment — which she originally made during an Obama campaign conference call — and a response Romney gave earlier today on Fox & Friends. (It’s worth noting that Romney is specifically responding to a different but related comment by Rahm Emanuel in the clip, not directly to Cutter’s claims.)
RELATED: Bob Schieffer Confronts Obama Staffer Who Said Romney Either Lied Or May Have Committed Felony
Cutter reiterated her original comment for Blitzer, saying that “either Mitt Romney was attesting to something that is true to the SEC — that he was the CEO, chairman, president and sole owner of Bain Capital — or he’s misrepresenting his time at Bain Capital to the American people. Because both of those things can’t be true.”
She later added further clarification that “we’re not accusing Mitt Romney of committing a crime here; we’re actually saying that he’s misrepresenting his time at Bain to the American people.” She cited reports from independent news sources showing Romney received a salary and appeared in promotional materials for Bain during a time he has described as being his leave of absence from the company. His explanation, she added, simply “doesn’t add up.”
When asked if she regretted having used the term “felony,” Cutter responded that she certainly did not. “It’s a fact,” she said, that lying on federal documents is a felony. Which is, again, not what she is claiming Romney has done.

noting offensive about that either eh Ozmo ?
probably just an honest typing error
-
he was still signing documents in a 'pseudo retirement' that let him claim to be not involved with the bain activities - yet still retain the title, the paycheck, and filings.
Yes, he was either still secretly working there (yes, he was) or committing a felony (no he was not).
If you sign documents as CEO and you're not, that's kinda a big deal.

He said he was done at Bain yet he recieved a salary from them.
So he is a liar.
But Romney has lied more than he has told the truth so its not really deal breaking. Unless you believe him but then you have bigger problems.

Barack Obama blunders again on the world stage

Barack Obama blunders again on the world stage
By Nile Gardiner World Last updated: November 19th, 2012
Barack Obama: hardly off to a flying start
It is only two weeks since his re-election, and his second term remains two months away, but Barack Obama is already blundering again on the world stage, with the kind of gaffes that would have been plastered on the front page of The New York Times if they had been committed by George W. Bush when he was in the White House. Obama's first term was littered with foreign policy gaffes, and there is every chance the second term will be more of the same.
On his trip to Asia this week, President Obama struggled to pronounce the name of Aung San Suu Kyi, the most prominent human rights activist in the world. As The Associated Press reports (hat tip: Drudge Report):
As Obama stood next to the world's most recognized democracy icon, he mispronounced her name repeatedly.
Ever gracious, Suu Kyi did not correct her American guest for calling her Aung YAN Suu Kyi multiple times during his statement to reporters after their meeting.
Proper pronunciation for the Nobel laureate's name is Ahng Sahn Soo Chee.
Obama also “botched” his greeting of Burma’s new president, according to the AP:
The meeting came after Obama met with Myanmar's reformist new President Thein Sein – a name he also botched.
As the two addressed the media, Obama called his counterpart "President Sein," an awkward, slightly affectionate reference that would make most Burmese cringe.

Its fucking gay. Like seriously, this asswhipe calls me ignorant, uninformed but at the end of the day, he was the fucking retard that posted landslide coming based off flawed information, but im informed?... So hell naw im not going to act like im not badgering his punk ass. But its for a reason, He made that statement about Romney being a felon and i ask for a quote and im called an idiot uninformed dumbass... but... there is no such quote...

That's a personal issue you have with 333333. You don't like the way he acts, you don't like his politics, etc. That no longer gives you the right to insult him, badger, bait, name call, etc just as it does with you. And YOU have SEEN me go round and round with him on matters like this. Check out the hostess thread, its not that hard to do.
If you have that much of an issue PM him and carry it on there.
but on this forum, find a way to make a point with out attacking the poster personally by calling them names, insulting, badgering etc.
If you don't like a thread he starts, you ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PARTICIPATE IN IT. So just ignore it. or challenge it in a way that doesn't included personally attacking a person by abusive ad-hom, insults, badgering etc.
I think EVERYONE in here including 333333 saw just how wrong he was on 11-6. Wasn't the first time.
nuff said. move on.

You arent getting what im saying bro. It goes like this
3333 or beach say some wild dumb ass claim...
I ask for proof or display something in factual contrast to their claim
IN THE NEXT POST...IM CALLED IGNORANT UNINFORMED OR A TYPICAL 95ER (code for ni66er) which i dont mind... but atleast offer a rebuttle... not just some dumb ass insult... and this has happened as recent as LAST WEEK. ..So i ask... what gives

Nope dont try that crap... you were reduced to sending me dumb ass gobbly goop pms post election...
also... i dont have a problem with the people that manned up. Post election Fury and MCWAY have gained all the respect in my book.. but you... you insist on calling ME uninformed but you based all of your "predictions" on awful information... so whos the uninformed?
-
Let's not stop there. Let's have a new rule for derailing threads with asinine rants. Posting the exact same article in multiple threads after it has a thread of it's own created for it. Wishing death on fellow Americans. And deliberately misquoting a source to fit a biased viewpoint.

Obama in Burma: 'I Wish I Could... Impose My Will on Congress'
by Ben Shapiro
19 Nov 2012, 12:02 PM
Today, President Obama spoke in Burma – or as he termed it, Myanmar, despite official US practice to call the country Burma – and repeatedly botched the name of the country’s famed Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, instead calling her Aung YAN Suu Kyi. Then he called President Thein Sein “President Sein,” which was a diplomatic snafu, since the president of Burma is to be called by his full name.
His speech was just as bad. After getting through the basics – acting as though his doctrine, not President Bush’s multiple actions on behalf of democracy in Burma, had created more freedom in Burma -- Obama cited Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s “four fundamental freedoms: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.”
When it came to freedom of speech, Obama said all the right things – after all, he was not talking about an anti-Islam YouTube video in Burma. But he then followed up that glowing language with this bombshell: “Now, on other hand, as President, I cannot just impose my will on Congress -- the Congress of the United States -- even though sometimes I wish I could.” Yes, he does. And he does everything in his power to exceed his constitutional bounds. And he said this in Burma, a military dictatorship for decades, shortly after calling it Myanmar, the name for the country used by the military dictatorship. Talk about undermining America on the world stage.
Obama moved on to freedom from want, which he said was accomplished through private property which could be seized by government. Really. Here was his take on how economics makes peoples prosperous:
When ordinary people have a say in their own future, then your land can’t just be taken away from you. And that's why reforms must ensure that the people of this nation can have that most fundamental of possessions -- the right to own the title to the land on which you live and on which you work. When your talents are unleashed, then opportunity will be created for all people …. as more wealth flows into your borders, we hope and expect that it will lift up more people. It can't just help folks at the top. It has to help everybody. And that kind of economic growth, where everybody has opportunity -- if you work hard, you can succeed -- that's what gets a nation moving rapidly when it comes to develop.
So property ownership is good, except that it promotes inequality, so it must be redistributed. Got it.
When Obama moved on to freedom of worship, he moved back into his “red states and blue states” nonsense from the campaign. Instead of taking religious differences seriously and recommending a separation of church and state, Obama talked happy talk about culture:
My own country and my own life have taught me the power of diversity. The United States of America is a nation of Christians and Jews, and Muslims and Buddhists, and Hindus and non-believers. Our story is shaped by every language; it’s enriched by every culture. We have people from every corners of the world. We’ve tasted the bitterness of civil war and segregation, but our history shows us that hatred in the human heart can recede; that the lines between races and tribes fade away. And what’s left is a simple truth: e pluribus unum -- that’s what we say in America. Out of many, we are one nation and we are one people. And that truth has, time and again, made our union stronger. It has made our country stronger. It’s part of what has made America great.
Well, e pluribus unum, until such time as Obama needs to win an election. Then he divides us by race, religion, ethnicity, age, and gender.
Finally, Obama addressed freedom from fear. He didn’t talk about the need to discard tyrannical societies. Instead, he talked in vague terms about xenophobia, fear of change, and the like. Some more typical Obama happy talk:
In many ways, fear is the force that stands between human beings and their dreams. Fear of conflict and the weapons of war. Fear of a future that is different from the past. Fear of changes that are reordering our societies and economy. Fear of people who look different, or come from a different place, or worship in a different way. In some of her darkest moments, when Aung San Suu Kyi was imprisoned, she wrote an essay about freedom from fear. She said fear of losing corrupts those who wield it -- “Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it, and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.” That's the fear that you can leave behind. We see that chance in leaders who are beginning to understand that power comes from appealing to people’s hopes, not people's fears. We see it in citizens who insist that this time must be different, that this time change will come and will continue. As Aung San Suu Kyi wrote: “Fear is not the natural state of civilized man.” I believe that.
What does any of this mean? Even Obama would be hard-pressed to explain.

Obama, Suu Kyi And The Forbidden Kiss ("grave breach of custom")
IBT ^
Posted on Monday, November 19, 2012 5:07:02 PM by Arthurio
As Barack Obama appeared in the home of Myanmar pro-democracy activist Aung San Suu Kyi in Yangon, the U.S. president planted a platonic, but very affectionate, kiss on her cheek (to which she appeared to slightly recoil in embarrassment). This act has surprisingly elicited little or no comment in the global press thus far – quite unusual since public displays of affection represent a grave breach of custom in virtually all Asian countries.
Obama likely did not mean to offend his Burmese hosts, however, as a well-travelled man of the world, he must have known that a kiss – especially one between a man and a woman who are not married; and one delivered to the most famous woman in Southeast Asia – violates local etiquette.-snip-
With respect to Suu Kyi’s apparent ‘backing away’ from Obama’s kiss, another expert on Burma, Frederic K. Lehman, Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois, speculated: “if, indeed, she did back away, possibly it is a personal thing with her and maybe she may have felt it was not to be done in a Burmese context-- she is, after all, a politician and sensitive to how her constituents may feel about her behavior.”
Though the kiss has elicited no diplomatic incidents, Obama did make at least one other blunder during his informal meeting with Suu Kyi.
The Associated Press reported that Obama repeatedly mispronounced her name, though Suu Kyi politely refrained from correcting him.
The president called the Nobel laureate “Aung Yan Suu Kyi,” versus the correct pronunciation: “Ahng Sahn Soo Chee.”
Nile Gardiner, a Washington-based foreign affairs analyst for the Daily Telegraph, commented: “It is rather embarrassing, as well as sad, that the leader of the free world can’t even pronounce the name of the most famous human rights activist on the planet.”

The president called the Nobel laureate “Aung Yan Suu Kyi,” versus the correct pronunciation: “Ahng Sahn Soo Chee.”
Nile Gardiner, a Washington-based foreign affairs analyst for the Daily Telegraph, commented: “It is rather embarrassing, as well as sad, that the leader of the free world can’t even pronounce the name of the most famous human rights activist on the planet.”

He probably smelled by alcohol and smoke so she was like "GTFA!"
Hey Mods, I find statements like this (unsubstantiated personal attacks) to be highly offensive
if you're not going to allow me to defend the POTUS then how about deleting these posts
All you're doing is letting a pathetic bully attack people who can't fight back
there is no PURPOSE for this kind of statement other than TO BE OFFENSIVE
The purpose of this entire thread is nothing more than to BE OFFENSIVE
If you're saying that's OK then the only way I can respond will be to pick out Republican politicians and do the same thing (which is not my MO) and then we can just have one big board of gratuitous and unfounded personal attacks on politicians

As Ozmo already explained to you, the rule applies to personal attacks against people who post on the board. I think most people understand the rule. It's very simple. Those people who have difficulty understanding the rule or posting on the board without attacking other posters, should find another place that will alllow personal attacks.
If you have a problem with the new rule, please take it up with Ron.

I am at the point where i am just repeating myself.
For some reason, you have personal vendetta against 333333 and i believe its clouding your judgement and you are taking his attacks on Obama personally. To me that's a sign you should take a break. You are taking this way too seriously. Or you are just messing around for fun. i never imagined a plethora of tantrum like posts coming from you.
BTW: You are more than free to NOT post on this forum at all Straw.
But the rules will NOT change.
And this is probably the last time i will say anything to you on the forum about it.

That's a huge cultural no no to kiss a woman like that in public. The Burmese are very very strict about public displays of affection, even something as innocent as a peck on the cheek is a big issue. You can see just from the way she's leaning as far away as possible that she's trying to avoid it. What a douche bag.

It is very clear
333 is free to post any kind of vile, racist, shit that he wants about Obama and any other person who is driving his diseased brain crazy on any particular day and no one can respond "in kind"
in the past the posters took care of his crap and now he is free to run amok
-
MCWAY has never had a problem with admitting he was wrong or when something goes the opposite of what he claims. That dude doesn't hesitate to man up and own up to his mistake.
I'll reserve judgement on this claim

I have no vendetta against him
I am personally offended by his racist, bigoted, lying shit yet if I use HIS EXACT SAME WORDS back to him that is somehow a problem
it's no more complicated that that
If you want to let a moronic bully run your board then so be it
-
I'll reserve judgement on this claim
the only thing I can ever remember him admitting he was wrong about was the outcome of the last election and that only lasted about a day and then the excuses started
Still he was man enough to show up unlike some people

Hey straw...take it easy..LOL..you're losing it a little...I side with you and I understand what you are trying to say.... ;)
but lets give Ozmo a chance.....if anything, this is going to hurt 3333 much worse than us.....he now has to be much more disciplined in what he posts......at the same time at least someone will be here to control him and call him out on his nonsense.... ;)

it's not going effect 333 much at all
he can still spam this board with all kinds of vile, racist, bigoted and false crap which I personaly find offensive and would like to push back on yet if I use his exact same words that is somehow a violation of the rules
Hey Mods - is it acceptable if I just respond back with Fuck You to his post which I find offensive
If not, please tell me the maximum allowable offensive response for lying, racists, posts
Thanks

Straw... Ease up....Ozmo explained to me what was going on and im on board 100%. And Andre is correct, this new format slashes certian peoples posts in half as they arent allowed to just make baseless attacks and personal jabs at people. Also they cant RUN FROM STATEMENTS THAT ARE PROVEN WRONG FACTUALLY (cough cough).. So in the grand scheme of things. This is a good thing.

I'm fine if that's the case but I'm sick of seeing this board be nothing more than a place where 333 can vomit up his hatred on a daily basis. This thread is an example of that, albeit maybe a bit toned down from his usual garbage
this board would be better if he just left at 99,999 as he said he was going to do

You knew he wasnt going to do that.. He cant even honor a bet as a man (dont delete this as it is 100% factual and accurate).
So just live with it.. his post count will slow to a crawl as a result of the new rule. 75% of his material was pure crap... dude... he has close to 100k posts... i think all would agree, not a lot of substance mixed in there..

Im just joking guys.

Funny - when Palin and her kids were getting smeared did any of us run to the mods melting down?
And people find my posts offensive? LOL!!!! What is this Sunday School?
We are on a site filled with lifters, drug addicts, etc and my posts are too much?

I don't remember anyone saying the things about Palin's kids that you do about Obamas.
If you want to make a point, try not to roll around in hypocrisy first.

As far as I am concerned every time he and I predicted outcomes and he was wrong he admitted it to me.

New Rules say I can attack O-THUG, his nasty wife, the illegal alien auntie and uncle, the communist cousin raila odinga, but not you personally.
If I can live by that - why can't you?

yep, new rules say you get to do the exact same vile, racist, moronic shit you used to do except now you're protected from being attacked by me from doing so
I'm sure pussies everywhere are rejoicing
have you ever explained why you aren't leaving at 99,999
you said you were making changes to your job, life, etc.. and that was the reason you were leaving

How terrible that must be for for you. Apart from copy-pasting articles, launching personal attacks is basically all you do.

uuummmmmm - i read a bunch of articles today saying how obama and his team of incompetent idiots screwed up so bad on this trip.
He made a complete ass of himself

And yet, instead of addressing that and arguing that Obama is a bad President because of his positions and principles, you post nonsense and focus on his kids and his relatives...
He made a complete ass of himself
I defer to your expert opinion on the subject of making an ass out of oneself.
