One can only hope thta this hubris our Glorious President is displaying will lead to the Mother of All Face-Plants, which will only be worse the way he carries his head. <br /><br />No matter how you cut it, no one that infatuated with themselves and their power should ever be in a position of power as high as our Glorious President is...

About the only exception I can remember to this was 2002, 14 months after 9/11.<br /><br />The Democrats will lose some next year. It remains to be seen whether they will lose big or small, but lose they will.Borepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05029434172945099693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596231821271459872.post-59548155837829635652009-06-19T11:14:56.492-04:002009-06-19T11:14:56.492-04:00Yes, but Reagan never tilted his head backward so ...Yes, but Reagan never tilted his head backward so that is was trying to look above the masses when he spoke.<br /><br />Those folks really are rather full of themselves, aren't they? <br /><br />Think that quote will come back to haunt them should the '10 mid-terms turn out other than how they wish? What will Gibbs say when/if the grab for national health care comes up short? "Mr. Gibbs, the Republican leadership said to ask you if you WON the vote or if you LOST the vote.

In the procession came trumpeters and musicians and strange animals from the conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conqueror rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children, robed in white, stood with him in the chariot, or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror, holding a golden crown, and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting. </i><br /><br />Not that The One ever saw "Patton" or would understand if he had.TOTWTYTRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17221321904364051792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596231821271459872.post-6530436549238558032009-06-19T09:23:40.786-04:002009-06-19T09:23:40.786-04:00You can't say that The One is mortal... after ...You can't say that The One is mortal... after all, he's on Franklin Mint collector plates now!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
