Obama Strikes Out at Bush's Energy Policy (and alcoholism).

[im10ashus]

:rofl:

Sen. Barack Obama accused the Bush administration Monday of a "stubborn refusal" to attack the causes of climate change, and said tougher fuel standards, stricter curbs on oil imports and more investment in cleaner energy are essential to avert global catastrophe.

"Saying that America is addicted to oil without following a real plan for energy independence is like admitting alcoholism and then skipping out on the 12-step program," the Illinois Democrat said. He referred to one of the principal themes of President Bush's State of the Union address Jan. 31.

"It's not enough to identify the challenge. We have to meet it," Obama said in remarks prepared for the annual luncheon of The Associated Press, held on the opening day of the Newspaper Association of America's convention.

Obama said the government should provide tax breaks and loan guarantees to show the way toward greater use of environmentally friendlier energy sources.

1. OMG, I can't believe he said that!

:wow:

[im10ashus]

2. It HAS to be a jab.

* is a dry-drunk who never went to rehab or a 12-step program. He only needed Jeebus to get sober.

8. Ha-ha-ha! Bush the Angry Dry Drunk gets skewered!

Drown your sorrows, Georgie, this is the biggest screwup you've ever had!

[4 t 4]

4. That Is Right

On-I'm sure Bush NEVER admitted he was a n alcoholic and NEVER attended a 12 step program is Barack trying to make an analogy???

12. According to Bush:

Laura said "it's me or Jim Beam". (Maybe it was Jack Daniels, I forget.)And he said "you" and we are all suppose to laugh at how cute and funny they are. If Laura meant to be a one-woman intervention, she should have said "get treatment or I'm outta here!"

[goclark]

13. First, I don't really believe Laura ever said that

'cause she was too drunk to talk.
She looks like they both need to enroll in a 20 Step Program because they are hurting our country with their lack of reality.

I believe that stuff was just a ploy to make us believe he stopped drinking, HA!

He is a DRUNK and a jaw moving addict.

The sooner the press and all the politicians stop protecting him the better he will be.

For some reason, as much as I dislike him, I believe that if he did go to AA,and was able to see success, he could be a nice person.

Now he is a MEAN DRUNK.

[goclark]

7. But he did say it ~ YEA!

I am sure that all of Washington knows Bush has been drunk everytime they see him.

We know and we're just looking at Photo Ops and hearing him slur his words and falling down and saying stupid things and moving his jaw and on and on.


Chimp " 12 Step" Bush! I love it!

[Strawman]

3. Really? Can't we just be "born again?"

and wipe the slate clean without having to do shit? After all we're real sorry and stuff, can't our daddy and his friends just give us a new energy independent economy for lil' Georgie to play President with?

5. Oh wow....

Just when I was ready to write him off as another DLC butt-licker...

[im10ashus]

6. Oh, he licks DLC butt.

However, I will give him credit for this one. I am pretty sure he was making an analogy here. Don't you think?

:shrug:

[goclark]

9. Obama is a smart cookie

I'll continue to support him and let him do his own thinking.

I see him as a prize fighter,just when you think that you know what he's doing, he socks it to you!

Go Obama! You Rock!

[4 t 4]

11. I forgot

when you're reborn you don't have to do any of that stupid stuff like a 12 step program I think I love Barack!!

[BiggJawn]

15. I do think so.

Even a dense-as-lead Phillistine like me got the point.

[wicket]

10. I love it!

:kick:
