Unreal. Obama is the anti-Christ.

Unreal isn't it? It's not like there's some sort of catastrophe unless he signs the bill. Not like we?re quickly approaching an unrecoverable moment! That is, unless we believed a word that he said.

I heard he took away peoples guns to use as utensils to cut the steak.

Yeah, of course! The confiscated guns then have steak knives duct-taped onto them for alternate use as bayonets when the proleteriat rise up to demand cake. Besides, any cultured Republican food snob knows that the extra weight behind such a modified steak knife just makes things slice easier. You can really grind down those tougher pieces. If worse comes to worse, you can just spear the steak with the knife and use it for target practice. It is like fish in a barrel!

:D

This is a gross misrepresentation of the truth. Not that I'm surprised.

No, actually its not. However as I predicted the bleating sheep would be along anytime to prove me right. Its like clockwork.

Heres an example. Remember the poor security guard for a congressman who forgot his concealed carry weapon while in DC?
No charges.

Everyone is equal, some are more equal then others.

How about half of Obamas Administration that have "forgotten" to pay taxes? If it were you or I we'd be on the national news as the Feds bashed down the door.

Everyone is equal, some are more equal then others.

Keep bleating my sheeple friend........

Silly kid. It really is. You suffer from a condition where you take a small quote, extrapolate other twists out of it that weren't actually said, and then come to conclusions based on those extrapolations as if they were fact. The media does things like this all the time. Hence, it was a gross misrepresentation. You are the sheep, sir.

Nice try though - you lie, then I call you on it, so you bitch and moan about a bunch of unrelated BS to divert attention from your lie. Its cute, too bad we're on to your ruse.

Does it still all turn into shit like a regular meal?

So you contend Obama did in fact NOT say we cannot keep driving big cars and keep our houses hot? Or is it your position that Obama did NOT in fact turn the heat up in the White House so high that others thought it too hot?

Before I make you look like the bleating ignorant dumbass sheep you are I have to know which one of these you think Obama did not do.

Wow and I just noticed your actually too dumb to even see the other examples I provided, but rather just ignored them and bleated on about how right you were. Oh yes, so right you were. Painfully right, amiright? You wouldnt see my point if it bit you on your drooling ass.......

Hmmm....Now who said this.....

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," blank said.

Geee...I cant remember....It was...That one guy.......

Gross misrepresentation indeed Oh Blind One. Any other words of wisdom you wish to bless upon us tonight?

Unless you've got more information than David Axelrod saying that Obama likes it hot and turned up the heat in the oval office, your quote fits my description to a T. Take a small bit of information, fluff it up with assumptions, and present it as a package deal of facts. Its cute.

Your other examples have nothing to do with anything, which is why I ignored them. Did you notice what I changed your quote to? That's all you were doing. The thread is not about any of that. You making things up about Obama and claiming it hypocrisy is what I was responding to - when I called you out for it, you added a bunch more unrelated information to try to hide your original lie. Good job! You almost pulled it off. Almost....

edit: And even your white house temperature has nothing to do with the topic at hand! Are you truly, honestly whining like a little girl that Obama is "more equal than others" because he can afford a fancy dinner on Valentine's Day? You can't honestly be that stupid. I mean, you haven't set the bar very high, but seriously, I have more faith in you than that. So if the answer to that question is no - then you're just trolling and attacking Obama for things that have nothing to do with the thread. I'm not sure which is worse.

Indeed. You're too stupid to even carry on anymore, you clearly will ignore every example I give that some are more equal then others.

Go bleat somewhere else oh mindless sheep.

hahahahaha so you ARE crying that a wealthy person is eating a fancy dinner!

Wow.

So the President should eat ramen every day? Otherwise he isn't keeping in touch with the plight of the American people?

That is far and away the stupidest thing posted on Anandtech in a long, long time.

President of the United States is Elite. He earned it. Get over it, go eat some crow if you are so bothered by what Obama is eating.

You bleat a LOT for a dumb sheep. They usually stand around.

Where did I say I had a problem with what the President ate? Post it up sheep. I didnt. In fact he most likely didnt go fancy enough if what I know of Table 52 is correct (Which admittedly is not much).

I await your bleats showing where I have a problem with what the President ate.

That's my standard line everytime we eat an expensive meal. It does make people pause for a second. :)

In my above post, I gave two options. Either you are whining about where he ate, or you are just being a troll and spewing non-related anti-Obama BS. Your reply leaves little option but the former. So NOW the options are you indeed DO have a problem with where he eats, or you are simply incapable of forming your thoughts in a logical manner.

Obama and Michelle eat fancy V-day dinner at Table 52. (Menu prices not online.)
Obama forgets that many Americans are having to choose between heating their homes and food.
Obama waits another day to sign rushed bill.

Mr. Obama: Would you like some change to go with your steak?

LOL... @ what a douche you are.

Yes you do, I've noticed that. You ignore the examples I give to support my claim and you state I said things I didnt.

Until you stick to facts and acknowledge the supporting information theres simply nothing I can help you with Mr. Hampshire.
