Hardball: Obama needs to keep working, aka, No Vacation for You!
They have decided that shit happens in August, and Obama needs to keep on working!

Also, Douglas Brinkley, historian....is a Right Wing Shill. Quotes Ronald Reagan a lot,
and Forgets Bush was on vacation for a MONTH in August in 2001!

1. Why bother watching "Hairballs?" Tweety is spastic and a lover of the D.C. Power elite.

3. That's cool. Suggestion: Mute the sound and put on progressive radio or good music?

5. I don't know......
What? :shrug:

On August 16, it’s on to the Grand Canyon in Arizona. They end up in Phoenix for the president to address the convention of Veterans of Foreign Wars. Weather prediction: It’ll be hot in Phoenix. They’re back in Washington on August 17.

7. Douglas Brinkley isn't a RW shill
Check out "The Unfinished Presidency", a brilliant Jimmy Carter biography.

8. Didn't Chriss loud mouth Matthews take a vacation recently???
Or was he out doing trips to the national parks, meeting people, seeing what the nation looks like outside of his lighted studio?

I get so tired of talking heads like Chris making himself look important when he's just another talking head who never bothered to run for office.

Get this man out, not to colleges in political campaigns, but out to the unemployment lines...have him come back after he's spent a year without insurance and income, like 15 million Americans see every day now.

10. chris so desperately wants to be relevant in the d.c. political discourse.
but he's such a lightweight compared to ed, keith and rachel... even david and tamryn.

13. tweety's email addy..I'm going to let him know
Edited on Fri Aug-07-09 05:33 PM by Cha
that he doesn't get to say shit about When, Where or Whether the President gets to take a vacation.

And, bush took the whole month of August off in 2001..did he have anything to say about that back then? I think not..or how much pig farm brush got cleared over the last 8 years?

Chris Matthews hardball@msnbc.com

Raygun sucked on jelly beans.

17. Tweety was unwatchable talking to JIm Dean.
He asked and answers his own questions, inbetween yelling at Jim to answer, then interrupting him again so he can't answer.

Tweety is a huge asshole some times. He thinks he's being tough, but really he's just being rude and extremely annoying. WHy have a guest if you're not going to let them answer? Too bad he doesn't do the same thing to most wingnuts.
