Translation:

“I've been crisscrossing the country for weeks trash talking the Republicans and beating to death my car-in-the-ditch metaphor, but now that I've gotten my butt kicked, can't we all just get along and be bipartisan?”

LOl, hopefully the appropriate response to any of Obama's BS will be: We won, YOU lost.

Deja vu, Barack.

Is this what he will say?

“I, Barack Hussein Obama, hereby declare an national emergency. I have issued executive orders that dissolve the House and Senate, suspends the U.S. Constitution, declares martial law and outlaws the private possession of firearms and ammunition. All gun owners will be visited by a team from my National Security Force in the coming days. I will not tolerate any dissent.

I promised you change you can believe in and I am going to give it to you.”

This is rich. Mr. "I won", who couldn't care less about working with the GOP a couple of years ago, is now trying to put out the olive branch...sort of. We'll see how things turn out tonight, but he may have little or no say in how this country is governed if it is a really bad night for the Dems.

I've been crisscrossing the country for weeks trash talking the Republicans and beating to death my car-in-the-ditch metaphor, but now that I've gotten my butt kicked, can't we all just get along and be bipartisan?

Or how about this:

"I've been crisscrossing the country for weeks trash talking the Republicans (calling them the enemy) and beating to death my car-in-the-ditch metaphor, but now that I've gotten my butt kicked, can I hitch a ride in your car-in-the-ravine-that-I-pushed-there-which-your-Republican-policies-will-soon-be-catapulting-out-of-this-ravine-so-I-can-get-some-credit-for-being-part-of-the-solution?"

If all goes well, the conservatives should send him a two-word telegram in response to this:

“You lost”.

Tell me another lie:

“I set the tome and the message.
My MSM ABCNNBCBS repeat that tone and message.
The rest of you honkies shut and sit in the backof the bus - while I complain about you not cooperating.”

I have new desktop wallpaper!!!

Thank You SOOOO much!!!

I just started painting for a liberal today, who has one of the original posters hanging in his kitchen, and it makes me cringe every time I walk by it. I will now smile and giggle gently to myself.

You’ve made my world a happier place.
