Winnar's threads always start with a new link to a new story which usually isn't even worth being called news, but the content of the whole thread is always the exact same worthless shit. Reminds me of a 3 year old that wants to watch his/her favorite movie over and over and over everyday until they go to bed. The only difference is that here on the internet there are no parents to tell the kid that they need to do something else more productive.

My theory is that people are expecting way too much from Obama.

My theory on your theory is that you are an ideologue, a person pre-committed to a set of ideas, here that neither democrats or republicans can bring change, and that any faith any may have in Obama threatens your world view causing you to throw shit.

Obama and only Obama, at this point in time, can bring change. I hope he does. I have no need for him to and no expectations. I see the potential, not the realization.

The hope-slimers are fools who don't want anything good to happen because it will make them see what real fools they were and how corrupt and sick are the things they stand for.

Change comes to washington, eh?

Obama: This election's not about me. It's about you.


Hmm....

yes obama made them change the name.

are you this dense normally or do you practice hard at it daily?

Bolded the key point for you.
He's dense normally

Its funny to hear conservatives rail against the supposed cult of personality around Obama while simultaneously trying to slap Reagan's name on everything in reach.

George W. Bush is a former President and an ex-politician. The idea was proposed last year but died down because he was in office.

Did he ever get that sewage treatment plant named after him? He's soooo deserving.

Well I can see doing this for a couple of reasons. Regardless of what type of president he ends up being, Obama is the first non-white male president, which is in itself historic. Also this school's board obviously wanted to jump to the front of the line in being the first to do this and didn't wanna risk being outdone by another school beating them to the punch. So while I do understand why this was done, I believe it is at least a bit early. While Obama so far seems he'll be a good president, he hasn't had enough of a chance to do anything yet to show he deserves the honor of things being named for him.

Many of the same trolls that participated in the crapfest of snide remarks thread about a sewage treatment plant named after Bush now come in here and whine about winnar11 and his trolling about Obama. Ironic.

You reap what you sow, folks.

Last time I checked, Reagan is

A. Dead.
B. One of the greatest men in US History.

not a man who's been in office for less time than William Henry Harrison whose only accomplishment is some pay equality act and the nomination of a load of tax cheats.

I thought you were objecting to the use of tax money to change the name. Now it's the fact that he's still president? Sounds like you know a thing or two about change yourself.

Does that mean that the school won't be a dropout factory anymore, all due to the Messiah's name?

Your theory runs counter to historical fact. The first point is true, though.

If only he had reached that milestone 2 decades earlier...

No it was turned down. It was felt to be too insulting to sewage treatment plants in general.

Actually, that now makes sense why idiots revere him.
