I’m thinking freezing rain with sleet. That’s always miserable.

But I hope not. Remember our truly honorable men guarding the Tomb of the Unknowns. They will be on duty no matter what the weather.

I’m not gonna give either choice that much credit.

Listen, I’ve got this Obama thing figured out. 10 years of booming prosperity has led to a large population of idiots, morons and slackers. Quality employees are often overlooked because they don’t brown nose, or they don’t “show up” the manager with their skills.

What’s a solid employ to do? Many of them left their company to start their own business, leaving a vacuum of talent filled by the first available “idiot-moron-slacker” available.

Former employees left behind methods that can run almost on auto-pilot, thus making it REAL easy to create an overpaid, underworked employee.

Guess what? There’s no room for slacking and brown nosing anymore in this economy, and these bad employees are the first to KNOW when they’re expendable. Do you realize how many idiots have jobs that can be phased out in a slow economy? These people are EMPTY inside. They don’t have faith in God, so they don’t have faith in themselves. It’s a reflection of who they are.

These people are clueless. They gravitate to the first clueless idiot that sounds good, because that’s how they’ve gotten by half their life. “HOPE!” “CHANGE!” for the imbelcile. The middle finger? That’s how they react when they felt threatened at work. They think that’s sooooo clever of the “O”!

I could write a book on it. “Rebellion of the idiots! The Obama phenom explained” would be the title.

So you see, we’ve become victims of our own prosperity, unfortunately. These idiots are gonna have to suffer to get it. I, for one, don’t feel sorry for any of them.

I feel for the poor Cops and Firefighters stationed along the parade route. They are the first to get there and the last to leave. The parade goers made their own decision to face the weather ,those on duty have to be there.

No strollers, walkers, canes, handicapped parking, bathrooms and now the weather. The only logical answer is...
Obama HATES The Elderly and Disabled!

... many people will die from exposure.

Good grief!
That is a ridiculous statement!
Washington DC will have more LEOs and other emergency-prepared personnel per capita than any other place in the world on Jan 20, 2009. Cold people will just have to go into a warm building.

To be honest the liklihood of snow is rare.

These storms that come out of the west seldom put any snow in Washington DC. It could be bitterly cold though.

You see whenthe storms come out of the west they hit the mountains and are slanted north and we miss the snow. Our bad weather comes when a storm carrying Gulf waters comes up out of the south and then hits a cold weather pattern sweeping down from the north. When that happens we get it. Snow up to our butts.

If Barack can make the oceans subside, he can keep the snow up in the clouds.

I was wondering where the rest of the bailout money was being used.

Finally!!

Proof that there IS a God!

I love God and His lovely practical tricks!!

Now God all I want is for Bam to have to shovel the snow in the White House driveway himself since the actual work staff would be stuck in their homes due to the blizzard
