freshwest's JournalAs much as I like the picture, with Boner looking gobsmacked, this is reckless:
They'd need to have the Secret Service go with Cruz from the time he got the coffee until it was delivered. He's such a loon that he'd try to poison it.
Or spit in it. Or piss in it. Or have bunny sex with the coffee, you know.
BUNNY SEX...

Anderson Cooper decides GOP strategist is high after he says Cruz is having bunny sex

I Love It When I Wake Up In The Morning And Barack Obama Is President!
~ Cha
Yes, and the end describing how much good we can do working together... Wow.
Will edit with a youtube video for direct viewing when it is available.
It is really a Good Morning, isn't it?
We're in good hands, as you've said. I've been up and down about this, as you know, angry, scared, demoralized, whatever.
Called up people last night with the news this circus would not be repeated and they are so relieved, as am I.
He kept his promise.
I'm still loving waking up in the morning and knowing that Barack Obama is President.
Have a great day, Sheshe!
Yes, the shout out to the federal workers was heartfelt and brought tears to my eyes. This is good.
The game analogy might play well, indeed. But I saw more exasperation, talking to selfish children.
I think his mind works less in the game genre, but in the 'let's get the job done and do the right thing' category. You may be right, though and it's time to 'play ball.'
Obama said at the outset of his presidency, that he has to take the needs of over 300 million people into account in all that he does. And was awed by the responsibility that had been granted him.
Which include (and I would say although he clearly would not) the nincompoops who for no reason but vanity and greed, embarrassed our nation and demoralized our people without any thought, or worse, with ill-will toward others.
I doubt he will inflict any harm on the foolish, as he has to be a bigger man than them, and has proven he is a stronger man than any blustering rightwing coward.
I was glad to hear his call out on those who profit on terrorizing people - over nothing. When he was leaving after his statement last night, a reporter asked if this would be repeated in a few months, he stopped, turned around and said with confidence (or maybe even a smirk, you decide) 'NO.'
Which is what he said at the beginning of the shut down in strong terms, that this would not be used again. I made the analogy last night, that many have been trying to lynch him since he was elected. He let them have their rope as he worked on doing the right thing. Which is the honorable thing, not drumming up hate.
While they had a public tantrum for the entire world to see how empty their philosophy and nihilistic plans were and plotted his and national destruction, they tripped and hung themselves with the noose they had thought they had made for him.
Ironic, isn't it?
Now we can get back to our regularly scheduled program of fighting with the GOP, etc. He said at the beginning of the shut down, that he was going to make sure it didn't happen again. Perhaps there was a threat there we don't know about?
The turn about has been amazing, with all of the loudmouths suddenly silenced and whining. If you'd care to speculate, I'm interested. I even thought for a second he'd done some sleigh of hand to cowl them. They were so shameless in their actions, almost as if unconscious of how they appeared. An epiphany for the professionally clueless?
Obama says the world must move from 'Might makes Right' to 'Right makes Might.' That is an ancient conflict over how the world will be run and we can't afford the former. The best ideals win in the end, not force and violence. We'll still have to deal with the benighted ones:
But I think the wind has been taken out of their sails for now. Thanks for your well said reply and support. Hope to see you again soon.
