Gates made his reputation as an angry black man a la Al Sharpton; his novelty being he also has a doctorate. He has produced next to nothing as a scholar. Instead, he has devoted his time on Ivy League payrolls writing hip hop lyrics and shallow journalism. But he is pals with Obama, and that counts for a lot.

WOAH! This is the highlight of my posting career to date - recognition on one of my favorites blogs. Thanks Gerald.

Sirius, you could, of course, return the favor by getting his name right. Just a thought.

Bumper stickers? Come on, aren't we trying NOT to be the same sheepish bums that the liberals have been?

Geeze, Andi. Oops. Andy.

I was on my way to Kinkos.

"Sheepish Bums"?

Look. We've been the butt of mean-spirited snarkiness for so many years now, that a bumper sticker with that little bit of push-back is JUST the ticket.

I'm tired of turning all 4 cheeks.

Time to polish a place on my bumper.
(the car's)

Gerard - My apologies for the egregious error.

Andy - thanks for making me aware of it.

Best Regards

I hope that name correction didn't come off too harsh. It's a bit hard for me to be funny because, well, because I am not funny.

All four cheeks? You are too generous, Kathie. They only want the lower two.

Hey I could make that slogan into little stickers for Mossberg 500 stocks, okay?

And don't worry, Sirius, everybody gets the name wrong. And few even attempt the last name.

That'll work for me, G.

Sirius - look, I just go with first initials. It's how my stunted ghetto intellects masks my ineptitude behind a horribly thin veneer of creativity. Not to mention the wonderful familiarity it implies between me and the great Gerald Verdenfloon

Inspired by this post, I came up with this: http://exurbanleague.com/2009/07/24/we-love-you-now-go-away.aspx

I believe I'd like something a little more strongly worded to express my extreme antipathy for the One.

I'm near to hating that skinny bastard.

Andy.

" It's a bit hard for me to be funny because, well, because I am not funny."

That's funny ;-D

You're OK.

Gerald Verdenfloon. Snorfle.
Who says your not funny Andi.

Andy, Gerard,

You guys have me laughing out loud.

I think I'll go w/ GV from now on which...will be easy for me since mine are FGV!

Cheers

Seems most are taking the first bumper sticker as a push back, but I think it's true. Even BEFORE the election, if you talked to people who supported Obama, many were against his policies...they still voted for him and still mostly support him, even though they still don't agree with most of his positions. It doesn't make sense, granted, but how do you explain sensibly this idiot being our president?

Congratulations on the Instalanche.

So where can we get one?

"if you talked to people who supported Obama, many were against his policies..." Much the same can be said about Regan. For good or ill, many people vote for the person rather than for policies.

No please - don't send him home. Aside from the murder rate, the South Side of Chicago has been so pleasant this summer. Can't we instead just send him to the Europe he loves so much? Please?
