if i had instead contended that "obama is limiting the war to a clear objective and therefore end by christmas of 2xxx", i would feel in need of a severe luffa skin scrub preceded by a combined lobotomy and neutering procedure and followed by a scented shower as the nobel committee is already lobotomized, neutered, scrubbed and scented, it can award obama a genocidal and indiscriminate mercenary war prize with a straight two-faces and forked-tongue, accompanied by trademark flowery language even as team usa harbour and giving aid and comfort to uigher terrorists

>>spewing squidlike<< Player M gets bonus points for use of edgy metaphor. ;) P.S. If you find TJ's style exasperating, just imagine how conservatives feel about The One... The Enigma of Obama Message 25024257 How can one categorize a man who combines: a revivalist's grandiose and extravagant oratory, bewilderingly contradictory changes in positions on issues, a squidlike ability to befog and blur statements into ambiguous or ominous vagaries, an inflated image (and self-image) covering a naïve and meager mental ability, a penchant for gaffes and misstatements combined with a dismissal of any corrections as irrelevant or malignant, a humorless rigidity, elitist aloofness, and perpetual air of condescension, and a thin-skinned aggrievement at being misinterpreted or of having his privacy violated. It's like trying to cram a three-ring circus into a pup tent. Unlike a chameleon, he maintains a constant personal image; it is only his positions that change. He shares the ignorance and self confidence of megaegos, but they doggedly stick to one set of dogmas while he changes them with the ease of a shapeshifter.
