Obamese

Home - by BigFurHat - February 10, 2010 - 10:42 UTC - 94 Comments

No Runny Eggs has a short list of Obamarisms and is asking for more to be dropped in their mailbox. I think they’ll be happy reprinting this thread if you guys come out swinging like you usually do.

Here are the Runny Eggs translations to get you started.

As I have repeatedly said – the fact that you haven’t agreed with me in the past on this issue is not a reason that I should reconsider my position. Rather, it is a reflection of your lack of intelligence and reverence for my omnipotence.

Shovel Ready – any project that rational taxpayers would vote you out of office for if you had voted to fund it.

Stimulus – a spending bill that contains “Shovel Ready” projects that is passed only with Democrat support

Uniquely Qualified – an individual who is either a tax cheat or has other ethical issues such that they wouldn’t be hired for and can only get a role through appointment to a Democrat legislator or Democrat Administration role.

Czar – An unelected, unaccountable bureaucrat, whose purpose is to expand government programs, imposes regulation, hire more conscripts for SEIU and reduce freedom for ordinary Americans.

Let me be clear – A phrase preceding a statement that certainly won’t be clear and is probably a lie.

Unprecedented – Does not mean “unprecedented” in the context of American history. Rather, it is unprecedented in the experience of Obama. Thus, he has no reference point from which to view or address the specific issue.

Inherited from the previous administration – I know this has nothing to do with other administrations. If I couldn’t blame those guys, how else could I get you to agree to the suicidal proposal that now follows?

I will not rest – I really don’t care what you or anyone else says about this matter. I will push this issue no matter how unpopular or how damaging it is to America. In fact, the louder you complain, the more sure I am that I am right!

    Actually you got one wrong. “As I’ve said before” is what Obama always says just before he changes his position and says something that he’s NEVER said before. I’m not joking, you can watch his speeches. For example this week he’s trying to win back the support of Wall Street, so look for him to say “As I’ve said before, Wall Street firms need to be able to offer reasonably large bonuses in order to secure the best talent”.
