White House Parties to Boost Morale, Says Gibbs

[CWOJackson]

Press Secretary Robert Gibbs defended the White House’s heavy schedule of entertainment as a “morale booster for the American people.” There have been over 100 parties so far. Far more than any previous Administration.

“Look, even if times are tough on a lot of people it can be reassuring for them to know that their President is still able to maintain a robust schedule of affairs at the White House,” Gibbs asserted. “Historically, citizens have always lived vicariously through their leaders. Perhaps even more importantly, though, this spending is helping to stimulate demand during the economic slowdown. Ultimately, this will benefit everyone.”

The Demorats are trying to keep the Massachusetts seat by any means necessary........

Nude Pose May Yet Block Brown from Taking Senate Seat

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev) is reportedly “very uncomfortable” with the idea of newly elected Senator Scott Brown (R-Mass) “sitting amongst us in the Senate.” The reason: in 1982, Brown posed nude for Cosmo magazine.

“The people expect that Senators will exhibit only the highest levels of decorum and integrity,” Reid said. “I’m not sure that Scott Brown lives up to this expectation.”

Reid pointed out that “each chamber of Congress is responsible for deciding whether a person shall be accepted into the body. So, we could vote not to seat Brown if we feel that doing so would diminish the respect voters have for all of us.”

The Majority leader brushed aside criticisms that Congress has accepted tax cheats among its ranks and as appointees to the Executive Branch. “Everybody cheats on their taxes,” Reid argued. “Why should we single out those who get caught and exclude them from government?”

Reid also rejected the late Senator Ted Kennedy’s questionable behavior in the death of Mary Jo Kopechne being used as a standard of reference for how low the body might stoop regarding the quality of its membership, calling such comparisons “unfair and unkind considering the illustrious legislative record Senator Kennedy compiled in the years following that unfortunate tragedy.”

In related news, MSNBC pundit Keith Olbermann urged that the special election vote for Brown be overturned due to its implicitly racist overtones. “Here we have America’s first African-American President politely asking Massachusetts voters to send Martha Coakley to the Senate to help him pass healthcare,” Olbermann said. “But exit polls showed that the majority of Massachusetts’ white voters dissed the President’s request. We can’t let white voters in one state impede the policies of a black man elected by a majority of the voters in America.”:doh:

I especially like this part. "So, we could vote not to seat Brown if we feel that doing so would diminish the respect voters have for all of us.” How do you diminish nothing?

Well, maybe teenagers live vicariously through their rock-star idols but it ain't quite that way for the rest of us. . .

At what point do we actually start lighting the torches and form up into phalanxes. . . ?

Boy talk about the pot calling the kettle black ... here is one of the worst at not displaying decorum and integrity ... and he's saying what? LOL!

As long as they're democrat it makes no difference, obviously the difference is if they're republican and have an opportunity to spoil the demmies parties.

Ummm Its not about race stupid! Its about ****ing up on the job. They just don't get it do they? (BTW, I don't see how this is related ... as its talking about race being an issue and not the fact that some guy posed nude.)

If the Dems refuse to seat Brown, I see that starting a ****storm like this country hasn't seen in a long time.

[AckAck]

Reid uses Kennedy's "illustrious" record AFTER he was seated in the Senate to defend his placement in the Senate, yet fusses about Brown BEFORE he can create an "illustrious" record.... what a streaming pile of :BS: - oh, look it steams too..
