"Obama The Post Turtle " Funny how those get recycled. Bush, for example, was a post turtle earlier. No doubt, so have other presidents. politicalhumor.about.com

That's the turtle they used to explain Bush. Sorry, dude, he can't substitute for Obama who actually has a brain......unlike Bush.

* I guess old habits die hard: "Nearly two dozen members of the House GOP from the Gulf Coast region, joined by Rep. Charlie Melancon (D-La.), called Tuesday for President Obama to reverse the post-BP disaster moratorium on offshore drilling in deep water."

A Nutjob A Week Posted by Joe Klein Tuesday, June 15, 2010 at 10:40 am The Republicans seem intent on making the least of a promising electoral situation. They have given Harry Reid new life in Nevada by producing as their candidate a Tea-Party Scientology-sympathizer who wants to do away with Social Security and Medicare . Then there's Rand Paul, who may win the Senate race in conservative Kentucky, but is tarring Republicans everywhere with his high-school libertarianism. But, I've got to say, my favorite is this guy, who seems to be advocating a violent revolution against the IRS in a seance he's having with people dressed up as founding fathers. An aesthetic triumph, a withering indictment...hysterical in every sense of the word. The commenters here often accuse me of journalistic on-the-other-handism for pointing out the excesses of the left as well as the right. No other-handism here: this sort of perverse nuttiness just simply doesn't exist in the Democratic party. Unless you count that guy in South Carolina--and I don't, until I see how he managed to rustle up $10,400 to run for the Senate...and even he hasn't advocated anything particularly weird. swampland.blogs.time.com
