Do the Republicans have the power to control Obama?
Remember when Obama was planning that 17-day vacation in Hawaii? You know, he needed a break from screwing things up; that can be tiring if you do too much of it.
Well, last week, it was suddenly decided that he’d have to stay in town after all. This, right after GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney criticized the president for taking the vacation:
“I just think it’s time to have a president whose idea of being ‘hands on’ doesn’t mean getting a better grip on the golf club,” Romney told potential caucus voters in Iowa.
Then, last week, GOP candidate Rick Perry took aim at Obama by way of religion:
As President, I’ll end Obama’s war on religion. And I’ll fight against liberal attacks on our religious heritage.
What did Obama do this weekend? He went to church. First time since Easter.
Now, maybe he thought it was Christmas. His calendar does seem to be about 12 days off. Or, he reacted to Perry’s attack. Let’s go with the latter, because it fits with his reaction to Romney’s attack.
This means that Republicans can attack Obama about something, and he’ll then react to it.
If we have Gingrich say that the president doesn’t understand what it’s like to have to flip burgers or wash cars, will we see Obama behind the counter at a Hardee’s or working at the car wash?
If Michele Bachmann says the president doesn’t know what it’s like for families to shop for food on a budget, will we see Obama pushing a shopping cart at the Piggly Wiggly?
It’s possible.
So, what can we criticize Obama about and get him to do in response?
Criticize him for not understanding how hard it is to catch a Road Runner. Then, he’ll put on some ACME Rocket-Powered Tennis Shoes and go running through the desert.
Say he doesn’t understand the plight of bucket inspectors. Then, he’ll stick his head in a bucket.
Slam Obama for not understanding how hard things are for Irish Folk Dance performers. Then, he’ll dance a jig.
Bring up that people who ride shopping carts down hills are having a difficult time in this economy. And there’s only one way for him to understand what they’re going through.
Point out how doesn’t relate to 1950s motorcyclists from Milwaukee who visits Hollywood with his friends. Then, he’ll … no, never mind this one. Obama jumped the shark a long time ago.
I’ve often been cricital because he never licks his elbows.
He should show he can do that during a press conference, so long as he doesn’t get his head stuck in that darn bucket again.
He’s also never resigned from the Presidency. I criticize him for that.
Let’s make this happen!
Obama has no idea what it’s like to be unemployed.

Racist.
Obama has no idea how embarrassing it is to rip a big fart on national television.
Obama has no idea how
embarrassingprogressive it is to rip a big fart on national television like Barney Frank did.FTFY
0bama has no understanding of what it’s like to live in the Phantom Zone after being banished from
Kryptonone’s home planet.*waits*
Obama has no idea what it’s like for the average American to walk into a Hell’s Angel’s bar and yell “All you p*ssy bikers s*ck!”
Obama has no idea what it’s like to take a communal shower in prison.
Obama has no idea what it’s like to have an original idea.
(that should keep him busy until after the election)
Obama has no Idea how to cut taxes or balance the budget. Reagan was super dumb and he managed to cut taxes, and even Clinton could balance the budget.
Most of America has been asking why he doesn’t play his kazoo during speeches…
…although Rock Throwing Peasant is right. The key issue has been his pointed refusal to lick his own elbows.
And where are the origami animals? Hmm? I was promised origami animals. *waiting*
@FormerHostage – “Obama has no idea what it’s like to take a communal shower in prison.”
Are you sure about that one?
Obama has no idea how to commit ritual seppuku. He needs to embrace cultural diversity and prove that he is not intolerant of the customs of our allies. Besides, it is completely appropriate under the circumstances of his SCOAMF-ish Presidency. The least he could do, really.
Mr. President,
I do not believe you truly understand the plight of people who disband their cabinet and resign, making John Boehner president. Prove me wrong.
Love,
Everyone
