"...but while I’m mopping the floor, I don’t want someone standing there, saying you’re not mopping fast enough or you’re not mopping the right way..."In other words, Obama wants to be treated the same way he treated George Bush.
Or not.

Great - but you left out the most overseas trips of any president in year one - more than others in an entire term

"Maybe Barry is at least qualified to mop floors."If a high school drop out had just landed an ENTRY LEVEL janitor job, he'd still have a lengthier resume and would be more qualified than the current JACKASS occupying the White House.

Rush certainly knew how to get under this guy's skin. Rush said 'I hope he fails'. When? Back in February?January, right after the inauguration.

The Zero Solution is destined to fail all on its own, with or without the help of anyone rooting one way or the other. Obamao knows it.

It is British slang. I am not certain of its particular etymology.

I’m tired of his failure. Not too tired to root for more failure, just wish we could get this sorry chapter done so we can move on to better things.

Rooting for America’s success and avoidance of Marxist results requires rooting for Barry’s failure. It is just that simple.

Nah, he'd spend all day complaining about the mess and blaming others for his utter lack of progress.

What did he do to support Bush?
Well, other than vote present?

Someone call the ‘Whaaaaaaambulance’.
I pray for you to fail, Obama. No hoping, or wishing, I take it to God so that our country may be saved.

This from one of America’s most brain dead liberal hypocrites - who worked actively to cause Pres Bush to fail at war, with American lives on the line.
I can’t say what I really think. But I will say he is a narcissistic megalomaniac, an intellectual fraud, morally defunct, without a shred of human decency. America wins when he fails.

nancy-boy Noun. A homosexual male. Derog.
From A Dictionary of Slang. My dashboard widget dictionary adds that it is British slang as Army Air Corps wrote.

... When most people think of the mop, they think of the common household-cleaning utensil, used for cleaning and waxing floors. They recognize its usefulness, respect its potential dangers, and follow the necessary safety precautions. While the mop doesn't seem like a threatening object in itself, its history and evolution since World War II had been something that everybody had taken for granted. People simply didn't think about where the mop came from. Often, its history was simply explained through folklore that was passed down for years, or was dismissed as a trivial matter that only troublemakers would dare question. What I am about to explain to you may deeply disturb some, and I advise some of the more sensitive readers to skip this chapter, as it deals with very serious themes connecting some of the most unexpected people, places, and events taking place during World War II. If you decide to read on, I commend you for your bravery, curiosity, and strong desire to seek the TRUTH. In June of 1939, Emperor Hirohito ordered the formation of an investigatory committee to seek out new ways of espionage of political opponents, and gain the support of the then small number of women supporters in the workplace. At the time, he still had access to some of the greatest scientists that had ever lived. To coincide with his sidiously twisted and evil plot to expand Japan's territory, a team of anthropologists, economists, physicists, and master woodworkers came up with a tool that not only solved the problem of spying on his enemies, but created jobs and the positive support from within the female Japanese population: the mop. Mop was an acronym for Michiko Omaesuka Pasutoku, which was the ancient Japanese god/keeper of the floors...
The mop was first patented in 1893 by Thomas Steward of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Links to the mop date as far back as Roman times. The mop patented in 1893 was made up of a clamping system that allowed the mop to be secured to the handle and released with a simple flip of the lever. Stewards mop in very close in style to the screw type mops we have today In 1950 the sponge mop was born making the everyday household chore a little easier. The quick action lever system allowed for easy wringing on the mop all done from a standing position. Peter Vosbikian the inventor of the mop used a sponge attached to a piece of metal connected to a lever. When the lever was pulled the sponge would be compressed by the two pieces of metal.

"May I ask where or how that expression started"
I couldn't make it to the library to research this one for you, so I turned to this newfangled thing called the "internet": Etymology: Nance
You should try it out sometime.
