Paper clips? They're attacking the president over a #$%^ing paper clip?

Obama Derangement Syndrome, indeed:

Proof There's No Detail Too Small For Fox To Attack President Obama With
Reported by Ellen - September 13, 2011 -

Fox & Friends' Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade complained today about the "chintzy clip" President Obama used to hold his jobs act together. Yes, the Friends were complaining about the paper clip used by the president. It wasn't clear whether they thought a better grade of clip was in order or if they thought the papers should have been stapled together.

1. What a bunch of butt heads that crew is. n/t

[Earth_First]

2. I will see you one paper clip and raise you one wrong door...

Shall we continue...?

[pokerfan]

5. It's just so mindless

which makes it perfect for that crew. Their "commentary" doesn't even rise to level of argument. It's just reflexive gainsaying of everything the president does.

It's like a Monty Python sketch...

M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
A: It can be.
M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
A: No it isn't.
M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
A: Yes it is!
M: No it isn't!
A: Yes it is!
M: Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.
(short pause)
A: No it isn't.

6. I was looking for that photo!

[onethatcares]

7. is that googlable?

like "Bush/Chinese Door?

Ah Hell, I gotta give it a shot and send it to some * heads.

[0rganism]

10. try "Bush v. Door" on images.google.com

seriously, it works

[The Doctor.]

3. Well, they have to come up with something.

It's there job.

[Retrograde]

4. And if he showed up with a bound copy

they would have complained he was wasting money and should have used a binder clip. Dolts.

[DenverDad]

8. There are some truly legitimate reasons to be upset with

President Obama. This just shows that FOX is the mouthpiece for the low-information voter, and proud of it. I guess policy issues are just too deep to discuss so early in the morning.

9. To be fair, they do have the smoking gun...

The close-up of the binder clip (and they even put a circle around the 'evidence' to make sure you don't miss it). :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

11. Binder-gate

When did O know he was going to use that clip?

[hunter]

12. At Fox News they use these:

[freeplessinseattle]

13. wow, that is just pathetic, but just is an indicator of how desparate

they are feeling after that speech and the train wreck debates.

[tsuki]

14. If he had used a heavy clip, they would have complained about the cost. nt

15. Yet when Laura cut up the White House drapes for pantsuits, they said nothing.

[pinboy3niner]

16. But they looked so nice, like...

"I saw it in the window and I just couldn't resist it!"

[pokerfan]

17. Classic!

18. Remember when they were all in a lather about Obama putting dijon mustard on his burger?

Someone here said that if Pres Obama single-handedly cured cancer the nuts on Faux News would complain that he was putting oncologists out of business.

19. Steve Doocy is the dumbest mother-fucker on the planet!

[mfcorey1]

20. The Koch brothers must give out bonuses to them for finding things wrong with Obama. nt

21. I'll admit I noticed the clip, too. -

- because I've had stuff fall out of identical type clips. I was thinking it would be a disaster to have all those papers slip out and fly away and was wondering why it wasn't at least bound in a clear portfolio.

Guess I've worked too many years in an office . . .
