Once you've stood in a room with over 100 Congressmen and hollerd "Fuck the President"

[ThomWV]

Well, its going to be kind of hard to go back on what you've said and vote for his plan three days later. I have hope in the House of Representatives.

1. Ever get angry at your boss and say fuck him?

People go back to work. This is not a big deal.

[okieinpain]

3. really it's not. hell president obama has been called a liar

while giving a sotu speech. that how blacks are treated in this country no big deal.

[ThomWV]

4. I made it all the way to retirement never having done that, but saw it once

Only once in my working life did I ever see another employee tell their immediate supervisor to go fuck themselves. It was quite dramatic and the sentiment was shared. Interestingly enough within the year that employee was many states away, elsewhere in the organization in a position equal in every way to the one he left whereas the Supervisor was gone.

5. And this wasn't even to his face

Nobody would do that, IMO.

Glad things worked out for your truth-teller.

7. Presidents are not the bosses of senators and representatives

This one is proving not even to be a leader of them.

Senators and representatives go back to work representing the people, at least in theory.

2. friends come and go, but enemies accumulate (same with badwill)

[blazerunner]

6. Why are they protecting the identity of this idiot?

I want to know who would behave so disrespectfully representing American citizens.

[Goldstein1984]

9. If that elected official happened to be one of those representing this citizen

Then he was representing me very well.

Disrespect is a very appropriate response to those who have earned it.

8. Let us hope they can stand firm.

I have the same feeling about the President's Tax/UI bill as I do about the health insurance company enrichment act. Doing nothing would be better.

10. Who said it? I missed this story

although Rush mentioned it today so it can't possibly be what he said it was

[ThomWV]

11. most of them, apparently. I know with certainty its what I said when I watched the Presser.

[yourout]

12. Rush was wailing about this today......saying it was racism.
