What an intelligent and reasoned response. Good job!

Cog: What an intelligent and reasoned response. Good job!
Not happy with my response? Tough. NRO gets every bit of respect they deserve from me. If you don't like it, suck it.

Yes and yes. And NRO can still go fark themselves.

Just call 'em "the Coalition of the Chillin'."

Remember all the Obamacons that all you mouthbreathing retards at NRo vilified for using their brains rather than voting in lockstep with you degenerate morons? Yeah, those folks. They guessed it. So did a giant majority of democrats who voted for him.

It is hilarious to see people act surprised about these appointments. Like, did you really believe your own propaganda? Talk about drinking the kool-aid. From day-one it was clear Obama was a centrist who would appoint people based on aptitude, not party affiliation or loyalty. That was the whole point of change - truly bipartisan leadership that isn't hung up on politics. It's sad that that's change, but look where this country is.

But hey, keep acting shocked at the whole thing, it makes you look like a complete and utter retard. You vilified someone who had the best interests of this country in mind and was using his brain, and now it's obvious even to you. Or at least it would be if you bothered with even one iota of introspection.

Also,
Fark NRO.

National Review (NR) is a biweekly magazine and web site, founded by the late author William F. Buckley, Jr. in 1955 and based in New York City. It describes itself as "America's most widely read and influential magazine and web site for Republican/conservative news, commentary, and opinion."[1] It is usually considered the center of intellectual activity for the American Conservative movement in the twentieth century.

but then...

Jeffery Hart, a longtime NR editor, criticizes the magazine's current crop of writers as being too topical, too ideological, and no longer grounded in serious political philosophy. In his 2005 book, The Making of the American Conservative Mind: National Review and Its Times, he laments the loss of the Eastern Conservatives as a dominant force in the Republican Party (GOP). Hart relays how co-founder James Burnham (a leading theorist), supported Nelson Rockefeller's 1964 presidential campaign. This critical view concludes that National Review turned its back on the Taft and Rockefeller wings of the GOP, abandoning its principles to become a coalition of Southern evangelicals and populists, best exemplified by George W. Bush.

That's why we don't respect NRO.

Didn't Obama say that he was the President of every American, and not just the ones who voted for him? Now, NRO, I know that is a new concept for you to consider, but perhaps it is high time that both parties have places and opinions in a presidential administration, and not a bunch of "Yes men" having their pockets filled by corporate greed.

/try not to think about it too much
//it may cause headaches and nausea

everyone should have actually. he's been saying all along that this is how he would build his cabinet. let the man do what he's gonna do in january.

So basically NRO is happy with Obama.

That's bad news, for Obama.

How DARE he appoint competent people regardless of their party affiliation!

NRO really needs to stop trolling.

DeltaXi65: NRO really needs to stop trolling.

Then they'd have nothing.

All the first-rate conservative writers have either died or stopped contributing. They troll for the same reason the Maury Povich Show does the paternity test thing 3 days a week... it's good for ratings and revenue.

Didn't he come right out and say he would do that?

Q: Who would have guessed Obama harbored a secret desire to draw on experienced Republicans and intelligent people no matter their political affiliations to manage his national-security policy?

A: Everybody who knows their ass from a hole in the ground.

HotWingConspiracy: Didn't he come right out and say he would do that?

Yes, but some people were too busy yelling SOCIALIST ELITIST MUSLIM!! to pay attention. Now that he's doing it, they either 1) act surprised, or 2) get ticked off that he's not appointing Joe the Used Shoe Salesman.

Aarontology: Barack Obama could start shiatting silver to pay down the debt, and the NRO would biatch and moan that he's not shiatting gold.

Thread over. And I'm going to find a way to use this in conversation today.

TFerWannaBe: Yes, but some people were too busy yelling SOCIALIST ELITIST MUSLIM!! to pay attention. Now that he's doing it, they either 1) act surprised, or 2) get ticked off that he's not appointing Joe the Used Shoe Salesman.

Plus one for this comment.

and now for something completely different:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH.

/for the retarded neocons.
//diaf, please.

Also Fark NRO

Came for the "Fark NRO" comments, left satisfied.

Secret? Down right genius! Put Republicans all in charge of National Security. Then when some a errorist attacks America the next election cycle Republcans can never say, hey a democrat was in charge and they can't tursted with national security.

This just in - Obama is running bipartisan politics regardless of party affiliation to construct an administration geared towards fixing the nation! Just like he said he'd do!

I'm sorry if this disappoints either Republicans or Democrats who thought he'd pack the Executive with radical loyalists and start rounding up the opposition into deathcamps, but this is one of the reasons why I voted for him. I thought he might actually do what he'd specifically promised. So far, so good. If you thought his promises of "change" meant he'd pull down his pants and crap rainbow unicorns, you weren't paying attention to his actual policy statements. Sorry, your pipe dreams or nightmare fantasies were not reality.

I had a few "discussions" with a coworker about Obama, I wonder what he thinks now. I'm just afraid to bring the subject up because he'll probably try to convince me Obama is going to force us all to eat gay arugula.

DoWhatNowToWhat: Then when some a errorist attacks America the next election cycle Republcans can never say, hey a democrat was in charge and they can't tursted with national security.

You'd think so, but I'm sure they'd say it all the same.

Oh, and fark NRO. -1.

NRO in June: Haha, you're drinking the Obama Kool-Aid if you believe that he's going to put away partisanship, reach across the aisle and bring a new atmosphere of compromise to American politics.

NRO in December: Haha, Obama is putting away partisanship, reaching across the aisle and bringing in a new atmosphere to American politics. Suck it libs.

TFerWannaBe: eat gay arugula.

Tossed salad?

The_Gallant_Gallstone: DoWhatNowToWhat: Then when some a errorist attacks America the next election cycle Republcans can never say, hey a democrat was in charge and they can't tursted with national security.

This.

Republicans could have every seat in the house and the senate, control the White house and they'd still blame everything on the democrats. Probably for not being in control to stop us from the horrific republican rule.

Let me get this straight....

If Obama selects a democrats it's "business as usual, not change"

If Obama selects a republican it's "see we told you we do it better"

If Obama selects someone with little experience it is "dangerous".

If Obama selects someone with loads of experience its "is this the change you were promised".

I have grown to hate the right, more so now than before the election. They have proven themselves to be a bunch of coonts.

Hopefully the entire party will just go away. Or be taken over by the reasonable, level headed republicans of which there are very few left.

If you haven't read the article, here it is, with all the water evaporated out of it:

"Obama did something I approve of, which obviously means he still sucks and is going to end the world. WHAAARRRRGARBLE!"

Jpud73: Hopefully the entire party will just go away. Or be taken over by the reasonable, level headed republicans of which there are very few left.

It is like hoping you win the lotto by finding the winning ticket on the street.

And the saddest part is. The majority of the country is too stupid to realize it.

A guy can dream, cant he?

And if Sarah Palin runs for president in 4 years, my wish maybe be that much closer to reality.

It really is astounding. At some point, the GOP thinking class made the fatal error of actually believing its own propaganda.

unlikely: Anyone who has been listening to him all along.

THIS.

His hero was Lincoln, who had a cabinet of rivals while he prosecuted the bloodiest war in our history.

Well, obviously, they're not real Republicans- they're RINOs, country club Republicans, what have you. No real Republican- heckfire, no real American- would would for for a muslin, socialist, communist, terrorist, no-flag pin guy like Obama.

/wow, that left a bad taste in my mouth
//GOP is rapidly becoming the Donner Party
///seriously, FNRO

Jpud73: I have grown to hate the right, more so now than before the election. They have proven themselves to be a bunch of coonts.

i don't hate republicans as much as i specifically hate neoconservatives and right wing media a la rush, hannity, et al

obama=bush

NRO and the rest of the conservative whack-jobs are setting themselves up for a beat-down of epic proportions. Obama is basically neutering all his opposition before taking office. Obama is going to do whatever the hell he wants and the Right/MSM won't be able to do a d@mn thing about it because of all the centrists/conservatives he's appointed.

The next 8 years are going to kick ass
1) Obama will move this country left.
2) the USA will rebound and take it's rightful place on top of the world.
3) The conservative whack jobs will be in constant temper tantrum mode. (hey, speaking of temper-tantrums where's today's Malkin link?).

Nothing wrong with bringing on experienced Republicans, so long as: missing = neocons. No neocons? He can have as many of the GOP in there as he wants.

FTA
he harbored a secret desire to draw on experienced Republicans to manage his national-security policy?

when you need someone to destroy a sovereign nation, or concoct false support, silence the opposition, Lie to the people, etc. etc.
who best for the job other than a Republican?

My late Goldwater-conservative father must be spinning in his grave at what has happened to Buckley's Review. The saddest part is that my formerly apolitical mother (who used to openly admit to only voting the way my father did) is now a Kool-Aid drinking Hannity/Palin Republican, I'm sure in a vain attempt to keep that part of my dad "alive," so to speak. I'd like to think that if he were alive, he would have (perhaps somewhat reluctantly) voted for Obama this year and my mom would have followed suit.

Oh, and Fark NRO.

Booty Nuggets.
