Call me when they apologize from spending more money on one piece of legislation than the GDP of the world.

"I know what he said, and I am telling you what he meant to say," he said.

What a weasel.

Okay, uhh, but I think you'll be waiting for awhile, since they've never done that.

Now, they have spent more on specific areas than the rest of the world combined- like Defense spending. Should I call you when that happens?

Maybe we can also tell him when we spend more on our navy than the rest of the entire world does combined.

Oh wait... that's right now... and has been for several score.

Why try to interpret what he said? Why not just say: "The opinions of the VP on this subject are not the opinions of the White House." How hard is that?

There is no excuse for the flyover. How that ever got out of the idea phase is a miracle. They must have a "Department of Really Shiatty Ideas" in this White House (and it's peppered with Bush admin leftovers who came up with Faith Based Initiatives, a whole host of Fox-guarding-the-Henhouse appointments and the Iraq War.)

No excuse for New Coke either.

Call me when a prominent Republican apologizes about ANYTHING!

Also, he very specifically said that this was his opinion concerning him and his family and nothing else. Personally, I agree with him.

"Meant to say" is not really reinterpretation. What I can't stand is the "what he really said is X", where X sounds nothing like what the person actually said.

"I would tell members of my family, and I have, I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now. It's not that it's going to Mexico, it's you're in a confined aircraft when one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft. That's me. I would not be, at this point, if they had another way of transportation suggesting they ride the subway. "

I'm still struggling to see the outrage here. Or the hilarity. Or whatever it is these jabbering fools are going on about.

 
RsquaredW 2009-04-30 05:50:50 PM  
>> calling time out with 11 seonds left in the game when they were out of timeouts.

I didn't know Joe Gibbs had joined Obama's administration.

I'm still pissed that they didn't apologize for changing Asuka's name from Sohryu to Shikinami. Almost as pissed as I am over the change itself.

I'm surprised that the rest of entire world spend money on your navy at all.

Where is my apology for the Fourth Crusade's sack of Constantinople? Or for that matter, the fall of Rome to the Visigoths?

When they display the proper amount of sorrow and disgust for dumping the Macarena on us all, then I'll be content.

The airlines seem to have taken issue with his remarks.
