Helps when you can greenlight your alt accounts huh

Fine, Obama is Gilderoy Lockhart.

Well, there's your October surprise, then.

I see him more of a Lucius Malfoy

This is the worst article ever submitted to Politics.

Yes, even worse than that one, where the person's blog sucked.

Galloping Galoshes: Fine, Obama is Gilderoy Lockhart.

No he is Lupin. He has a trait which makes him unacceptable. Lupin is a werewolf and Obama is Bla

When you have a headline that doesn't tell you anything, I assumed SOMETHING was happening in the article. I. WAS. WRONG.

bmongar: Galloping Galoshes: Fine, Obama is Gilderoy Lockhart.

Do tell, what is this trait that makes him unacceptable? I see him more as completely unqualified for the job he took and who consistently demonstrates his lack of ability, although many refuse to see it and fall for the marketing. (Not an endorsement of Romney, by the way.) What is this single trait?

Who?

A. Don't assume. This is FARK, for grid's sake.
B. So what else is new?

Biden is Mr.Weasley

Rattlehead: Who?

Some lady wrote a bunch of books, got rich, and exposed millions as incipient geeks. Dolores Umbridge was an unpleasant character in said books.

No, not endorsing Romney. Just deathly curious to know what my fair leader's single unacceptable trait might be.

Too kind. Need a dumber character. Weasley was too strong.

TROLL IN THE DUNGEON.

...all the while smiling that fake and brittle smile.

Lawls. Even a 9 year old kid can see through Mitt's patent insincerity.

Too bad the majority of the GOP's voter base isn't that bright.

^__^

farkplug: Just deathly curious to know what my fair leader's single unacceptable trait might be.

I'm thinking that you may have touched on the trait that bmongar thinks that some find unacceptable.

quatchi: itt's patent insincerity.

Show me a sincere politician.

/still waiting.

Fluorescent Testicle: TROLL IN THE DUNGEON.

In the echo chamber, rather.

Interesting, it appears that fiction also has a liberal bias.

This is a bad article and subby should feel bad.

Does that mean that he will be dragged away by centaurs and raped?

people who indoctrinate their nine-year-olds into their political views, whatever they may be, are disgusting...

spelletrader: Interesting, it appears that fiction also has a liberal bias.

Really? The government in Harry Potter was a dictatorial Ministry of Magic with no legislative check on executive government. Seems more like totalitarianism to me.

Heh. Funny! But you have never expanded upon the alleged (by you) incompetence of Obama, so I still say you're a Romney fan.

So, Romney's a girl and should therefore stay in the kitchen and keep out of "man business" anyway, yes?

proteus_b: people who indoctrinate their nine-year-olds into their political/religious/ethical/moral views, whatever they may be, are disgusting...

Dope, that's what parents are supposed to do. You know, teach their kids. Or let their kids grow up without guidance (or let the schools do it, which is worse).

Umbridge had set in stone values (farked up as they were).

Romney is more like Fudge.

"What about Obama? Harry Potter, one might imagine, in the 9-year-old's phantasmagoria? The damaged hero. The chosen one. The boy who saves the world. No, she said, impatiently. Like why can't I see it? Why am I not receiving the message the universe is so clearly sending? Dumbledore! Wise, old, snowy-haired Albus Dumbledore. He has moral authority and gravitas, even when life at Hogwarts moves out of his control. He is also a master of wryness, of sharp comments delivered dryly. You can easily imagine Dumbledore saying, "We also have fewer horses and bayonets." When the evil forces of the ministry come to take him to jail, a magnificent orange bird swoops down, and together they vanish in flame."



Now Joe really needs the Bird so he and Obama can go fly off into the sunset to save the economy...and all that important stuff.

Galloping Galoshes: Show me a sincere politician.

Both sides are bad, you say? But how should I vote?

/Difficulty: Canadian and a mostly imaginary being. 

I'd say both Obama and Biden have more sincerity in their fingernail clippings than you can find these days in the entire GOP with the exception of the True Believer fundocrat types like Bachmann, Santorum et al who's sincerity is on a level with their destructive potential. 

Mitt is completely insincere, an utter phony, and has long been identified as such by members of his own party.

You do know that for the century prior to the advent of color TV the taller guy always won, right? How a nine year old views them is probably more important than their stand on the issues.

If you keep that up I'm not going to have anything to add to discussions.

I was challenging bmongar on the single unacceptable trait he was alluding to. I didn't get that:

farkplug: No, not endorsing Romney. Just deathly curious to know what my fair leader's single unacceptable trait might be.

was asking me to expand on anything.  I thought you were asking the same question I was.

Also, just because the choice is A or B, if I don't care for A, that doesn't imply I like B. I'd be happy to discuss my views of Obama, but first I want to hear what bmongar thinks is this single unacceptable trait of Obama he refers to.

nah, not original. A bunch of lawyers with too much time on their hands did the analysis.

Galloping Galoshes: Dope, that's what parents are supposed to do. You know, teach their kids. Or let their kids grow up without guidance (or let the schools do it, which is worse).

Yeah, nothing is more useful to society than 9 year old Randroids and 8 year old Communists.

quatchi: /Difficulty: Canadian and a mostly imaginary being.

I'm not sure I consider that a difficulty. Perhaps a blessing.
