Obama channeling Reagan - refers to himself as "The Gipper" - LMAO

[Soul Crusher]

 

george gipp not ron 

  

Yeah, ok. 

[Soul Crusher]

Again :

Keep crying and backpedaling.  So far, I am not the only one that has the same thing.  

Good luck on your Saturday night internet session.  Let's hope those threads turn out better for you than this one.

He didnt use that phrase you moron.  He specifically said "The Gipper" in referring to himself needing a tie before the speech.   

Damn you are stupid. 

[blacken700]

So how did the saying come about? Well, there's the sad part of the story. It seems that Gipp caught a throat infection during one of his final football games at Notre Dame. He died a few weeks later at the age of 25. Just before his death, he told Coach Rockne, "Some time, Rock, when the team is up against it, when things are wrong and the breaks are beating the boys - tell them to go in there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock. But I'll know about it, and I'll be happy."

Bullshit.  This is one more thread that blew up in your face and having it hacked up for your benefit isn't really making you look any smarter either.

That previous link you posted to the LA Times does absolutely NOTHING to support your cryfest here.  Not a single mention in that or the original post you quoted where Obama made a personal reference to him being the gipper. 

Keep trying, maybe you will have better luck on your future threads.

dude, you're wrong on this, look at the video posted above.  You're dead wrong and just making an ass of yourself over something that is lame and doesn't even matter.  In the context he spoke, he puts himself as the gipper.  It's over, you lose, it's done...  move on.

If you believe the same so be it.  Bottom line is, it is used as a phrase and not a personal reference.

If you can't see that, that is your problem, not mine.

[Soul Crusher]

Yes, it appears to me that's exactly what he did:

Yeah, cause everyone uses the phrase in everyday talk "take one for the gipper"   ha ha ha ha.

[LurkerNoMore]

Damn you are stupid. 

Keep crying about the tie aren't you?  Doesn't matter if he needed a tie or a blow job from Nancy Reagan before the speech, it was not a personal reference.

And you calling someone stupid?   HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA HAHAAAAA

[Soul Crusher]

Ha ha ha ha - yes he did!   He needed the damn tie that himself put on.   The "Team" did not need a tie, "Obama" needed a tie.  

[LurkerNoMore]

Yeah, cause everyone uses the phrase in everyday talk "take one for the gipper"   ha ha ha ha.

Yeah... because Reagan always needed a tie before a speech too?

 

Your own bullshit works against you.  Again.

Bro - you got owned again - just move on.  You lost, get over it. 

[Hugo Chavez]

You ASSume right.  And at this level of politics, you shouldn't ASSume anything unless you really do want to be an ASS.  these guys know what they're saying and why they're saying it and the meaning of what they're saying.

Bro - you lost - get over it.   Its no big deal - no the first time for you, certainly not the last either.

you do know the difference between real life and the movies. reagan was an actor playing a movie role

[Soul Crusher]

Dude you are still beyond delusional in your crying and whining that basic read skills are compromised.

Not a new thing with you.

Yawn, move on, you lost.

agree so we should stop assuming he met reagan 

[Hugo Chavez]

lurker, bring some substance to these posts otherwise there is no point to them being here.

Obama's long held admiration for Reagan is well known.  

[LurkerNoMore]

I did.  As evident in the one I originally posted and then quoted again after it was deleted.

I don't see that it's a problem if it's an admiration for Reagan.  If he had said that being a fan of Reagan, I don't think that would be a problem. but I doubt it's true anyway.  this is calculated bullshit and I don't believe anything from him at this point.

[Dos Equis]

He was pretty clearly referring to himself as the Gipper.  What a stupid argument.

I think lurker just saw my name attached to the thread and decided to go on the attack before reading the quote and watching the vid. 

No biggie, wont be the last time this happens. 

With regard to the story, I dont believe it one bit,  Obama never said this, 2004, he is making shit up now so he can attach himself to the Reagan love going around.   

[Skip8282]

Sounds to me like he's talking about himself.  But, let's face it, this is criticism is just as dumb as when they jump on Palin for the most minute, irrelevant, trivial bullshit.

I thought it was interesting in light of all of the Reagan stuff and comparisons we have had over the last few weeks that he would say this.   Its not a coincidence,  Its not a criticism as much as it is telling of how he is trying to position himself by tossing these things out to the public.

that was back in 2004, you should just leave this tread alone
