It would be funny if Obama's speech-date actions were chess moves to embarass his left-wing critics.

1. and in the process come at the GOP from a direction they least expect

as he maneuvers to end the wars, end the worst excesses of the Bush assault on the Constitution, work hard to get a true public option established for millions of Americans and a bunch of other stuff too! When will people start realizing the cunning brilliance of this extreme thinker.

Cheers!

[yurbud]

3. the speech date doesn't amount to much in the long run, but I don't see much evidence of attempting

the other things you mentioned.

[Vinnie From Indy]

6. My sarcasm attempt must have eluded you.

My bad!

Cheers!

[badtoworse]

23. It didn't elude me. Brilliant!

[yurbud]

29. with so many ''centrists'' here, I thought there was a chance it might be serious.

they've kind of distorted the discourse.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. No, it wouldn't be. But that isn't what happened anyhow.

[Oilwellian]

4. Such an odd thing to say n/t

[dgibby]

8. Not for the OP.

Pretty much par for the course.

[joshcryer]

5. Could you elaborate how they would be embarrassing?

[joshcryer]

9. Josh to LoZoccolo, I don't see what's embarrassing. Please elaborate.

[LoZoccolo]

18. They've now shown themselves to complain about the smallest things, in ignorance of the constitution

[WillyT]

7. Oh Yeah... That Would Be THE Political Maneuver Right Now...

You wouldn't by any chance, be projecting, would you???

:wtf:

:banghead:

:beer:

:smoke:

[TheKentuckian]

10. As a critic I'd love nothing more than to be embarrassed in the way you speak of.

Of course it would be tough to be embarrassed since the President can't do much legislative wise so he'd have to be quite aggressive in areas under his control.

As it stands, we'll just continue to be embarrassed at the bullshit policies.

[quakerboy]

11. The right generally does try to

come up with any way to try to embarrass the left possible.

[pa28]

12. Help is available. Reach out. n/t

[Recovered Repug]

13. You keep using this chess analogy.

I don't think it means what you think it means.

[Bluebear]

14. It's fun to laugh at the left, says the OP!

[flvegan]

15. Score one for Oasis!!!!

[mrdmk]

16. There was nothing funny about this w h a t - s o - e v e r!

It was a political blunder, b i g - t i m e!

Our right-wing democrats are now reaching for the stars to cover this fuck-up!

[alltherage]

17. Obama doesn't play chess

Stop being an Obama supporter stereotype. Deal with reality. Stop putting all your hopes and dreams onto this man already. He's a regular person, who's dealing with a vast amount of doo doo. Obama doesn't have some secret plan. You sound nuts.

[LoZoccolo]

28. I don't think he even said to put all my hopes in him.

[Rex]

32. LOL!

Check this out, it pretty much tells you all you need to know about the thread starter.

[Warren Stupidity]

21. Yeah it would be, instead it is just embarrassing.

[RetroLounge]

22. Really, do you feel embarrassed?

You should, seeing how "speech date" isn't hyphenated and you misspelled "embarrass."

24. Embarrassing the left is the least of his worries.

[JHB]

25. Yes, that would be funny.

Too bad it wasn't funny.

[LWolf]

26. Yes.

It's highly amusing to watch him throwing all those votes away, headed into 2012 with his support dropping.

[Enrique]

30. he embarrassed his biggest folowers

who crowed over his original "genius" scheduling coup. It was "brilliantly dickish" they said.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

31. It would be funny..if it were some kind of chess move. But, it wasn't.

It was, however, sheer stupidity or, just another cave.

[Prism]

33. The President's more a Yahtzee player, really

Keeps rolling the dice and rolling the dice, hoping against hope something useful will appear.

And then the inevitable, sad little X's put down instead of points.

Happens all the time.

[Faux pas]

37. Nailed it.

[ibegurpard]

35. It would be funny if you ever posted a thread that was funny

[Creideiki]

36. Because it will get him enough Right Wing votes to push him over the top?
