I don’t know what Obama has against dead people. After all, they voted for him in large numbers.

You got it: that was pure cover-his-dopey-butt.

You know someone is immature and a dope when he tries to pull of self-deprecating humor and instead it comes off as hateful sarcasm about someone else.

It’s amateur hour, folks. And that’s the “good” part.

“How long do we have to smile... .”

I have a feeling we won’t have to grin and bare it very long.

0 (as in zero) is gonna make an ass of himself in short order.

And if he doesn’t, Michelle will.

Mike Reagan will eat him alive tonight.

That's what 51% of the other voters should have done election day. Too late now, the barn door has already been closed on this heap of cow dung.

85% of the American public finds mockery of elderly and the dead to be despicable. The 15% of the population who are diehard lefties think it’s “clever”.

Tell me please, which orifice did you pull this little factoid out of ?

“It is not going to be easy for us to dig ourselves out of the hole that we are in,” Obama said.

Nancy is getting on in years, but she wouldn’t need a seance to know that digging your way out of a hole is STUPID!

I think Obama literally forgets he isn’t just sitting around shooting the bull with his friends. To be honest I have noticed a similarity in the way he covers a verbal mistake with myself. For example, if I had bungled saying something that involved the word “is”, I might make a Clinton reference.

But I’m not at a Press Conference as President either,and things like this matter. It will be something to keep an eye on, because he might have a tendency to reveal his true thoughts sometimes.

He could have said the same thing-—and it might even have been funnier-—if he had left out Nancy Reagan’s name.

“Liberals simply cannot perpetually hide their hatred for the most popular President of the past 50 years. They hate him with a passion.”

I wonder how Ronald Reagan Jr. feels about his mother getting dissed...especially since he came out endorsing Obama! What a low life scum bag he is. Gives the finger to Hil and McCain, makes arm gestures to mock Mc, calls Palin a lipstick pig and stinky old fish for McCain. Gee, we haven’t even started the administration yet. I cannot believe he was voted in. Tell me I’m dreaming! Low class idiot......

without getting into the Nancy Reagan thing, seances and all that.

...typical backhanded slam. I propose we start calling him President elect Barrack Hussein Obama,in ever post where his name is mentioned from here on out and we make this "an issue", until the "uniter" publicly apologizes!

“The White House yesterday tried to downplay Hillary Rodham Clinton’s ties with controversial spiritualist Jean Houston denying that the First Lady is involved with seances or gurus.”

NEWARK, New Jersey (CNN) — The woman described by Bob Woodward as a spiritual adviser to first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton disputed several of Woodward’s published assertions Sunday night .

Jean Houston, interviewed at the Newark Airport by CNN, said that Mrs. Clinton did indeed have imaginary conversations with Eleanor Roosevelt at Houston’s suggestion.

“(But) that was maybe four minutes out of hours and hours of conversation,” she said. (snip)

Or that dude on tv that “talks to the other side.”

Or Sister Cleo or whatthefrankzappa her name was.

The point is he chose to make fun of Nancy Reagan. That was classless.

You *have* to laugh at Fuhrer's jokes. Do you want to be sent to the Russian front?

We can stop by Sarah's house for lunch! Hang out with Todd!

There's a more accurate quote on Ben Smith's Blog on Politico:
"I have spoken to all of them who are living," he says. "I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Regan thing about doing any seances," he says.
Real classy guy.
